Hello sewing friends! In today's video, I'm chatting about all the things I've been up to from March to May 2022. I recap the three videos that I made. Then, I talk about the things I've been sewing and knitting and share the fabrics that I added to my stash. Finally, I chat about what's coming up in June. Plus. there's a cameo from my best cat buddy. I think he’s been missing his screen time lately. ;) I hope you enjoy it!
This is the second video in a new series, sharing about my sewing machines. Today, I'm talking about my vintage Singer Featherweight 221. I inherited this machine from my great-aunt and have only been using it for about 5 months. So, I’m definitely not an expert. This isn’t a machine that I need to have (because my main machine does everything it does and more) but I have really enjoyed using it. It just has a lovely feel and a gorgeous sound, that I really find soothing while piecing my quilts. (You can check out part one of the series here where I share about my Janome Horizon MemoryCraft 9400.)
Today, I'm sharing about my main sewing machine—my workhorse—the Janome Horizon Memory Craft 9400QCP. I'll be sharing the things I like about the machine, the things that I don't like, how much I paid for it and give a short demonstration of a straight stitch. I bought this machine a little more than three years ago, in 2019, and I’ve used it a lot so this is all from experience over a length of time. That said, my preferences, may not be the same as yours. (Check out this post with tips for finding a sewing machine that works for you.) This is the first video in a new series, where I talk about the sewing machines that I use regularly. I hope you enjoy it!
