Isn't She Wonderful-but she needs a name-Giveaway time.

I fell in love with her the first time I saw her and I knew we'd be BFF !  She was brought into Sawyers Sewing Center for a maintenance after this individual purchased her at an estate sale.  I was there when this gentlemen brought her in and well my heart skipped a beat, no, I probably had heart palpitations.   He intended to sell her on eBay after a quick tune-up but I knew I had to save her from that indignity. She's way too special for that and after a check-up and a new belt I made my offer and both parties came away extremely satisfied, mostly me.
So tomorrow I will take her for a little spin and we'll sew up a quilt block or two.  I must admit at one point today I had three sewing machines in my vehicle, a Bernina, Pfaff and this little Singer so I'm wondering do I need an intervention or what?  So here's the deal I think she needs a name so throw some out there and if I pick one of the names you suggest I 'll giveaway a charm pack but if there is a repeat name the one who made the first suggestion and I pick it wins the pack, so good luck.  I'm not sure how long to keep this giveaway open so let's say a week from now, Oct 30.  You don't have to follow just have some fun with this.  Life is a little crazy here so if this giveaway runs longer or shorter that's the way the Singer sews!

I thought Lila when I saw her. I don't name my machines, so this was a tough one for me.

Betsy was the first name that popped into my head. Since she's little, I thought of Ittsy Bittsy Betsy.

She looks like a "Little Lady" to me. She is beautiful.

I'll suggest Fiona. Little white featherweights are so elegant, that they need a rather elegant name. :-)

Enjoy your new baby. I have a white one as well. Plus 2 black ones. They become addictive - especially when you come across a great deal!! (friendly warning, LOL)

I would call her "Little Suzy" as in Little Suzy the Singer Sewing Machine.

Michelle said...

Sophie is the name that leapt immediately to mind.

Carla G said...

Patricia or Patty for short. :) Enjoy your new machine! Great find! :)

An old fashion girl needs an old fashion name, so I thought Gertrude would be a great choice.
