A new Singer :)
Thursday, June 21st, 2012I had been thinking about buying a new sewing machine for a while, but never really had the extra money for it because there where always so many other things that needed to be taken care of first. Now we are finally caught up with a lot of these things I started thinking more seriously about a new sewing machine again. I have been looking on several websites and after some research and checking with my mom, who happens to work in a needle craft store where they also sell sewing machines, I decided to buy a Singer, model 1120. It was a used machine but completely checked and tested. The store where I bought it is a regular sewing machine store which has been existing since a long time. I received the machine today and tested it out. It looks pretty much like new as if its never been used and works fine. I have to get used to it though because my old machine only knew two different stitches.. straight and zigzag. I could change the stitch length and width and back and forth but that’s as fancy as it would get. This new sewing machine has I dunno how many stitches and its going to take me a bit to just learn how to use the regular ones even. Hopefully it will run as long as my old one which is at least 30 years old. Anyway that was kinda the highlight of my day and had to share it :).
