The picture is from Amazon which is standing in as my friend.
I have been doing the thinking. I want a new machine that can manage curtains. It has to be new because that way I am reassured that the bits and manual match. I don't know enough to make a guess about stuff. If I had more confidence and knowledge then perhaps I could risk used. I also need to have something that can cope with curtains as that is my most likely target.
I shall make myself some brushed cotton pyjamas and some brushed cotton nighties because I can never find them in my size and I feel the cold. I shall make a patchwork quilt, not the standard American style quilt but the one that they had on Wartime Farm where they fill little bags with stuffing and then sew them together. I remember seeing a picture of a quilt made entirely from ties from a charity shop, and I quite like that idea. The ebay shop that sold me the bulk lot of sweaters also sells bulk lots of used denim and I quite like the idea of a denim quilt as well.
I shall be brave!
(I'll let you know when I've had the courage to order one)
Hi
ReplyDeleteHave you looked at John Lewis website? They have a buyers guide for sewing machines which might be helpful for you. Also they have one of their own brand machines reduced at the moment.
Love Christina
Thank you, I shall go and have a look straight away! WS xxx
