I desperately need a new sewing machine. I’ve had my simple Singer for 4 or 5 years now and while it can piece things together well, I am unable to quilt properly. So this weekend we went to the Viking store inside JoAnn’s and looked at a couple of machines in the price range we can afford. I think next weekend I will go back to try sewing on them to see which I like better. I can continue to piece this week, and hold off quilting until I get the new machine.
