Thrilled 
How I did it: I bought a really nice machine w/ an embroidery attachment. My husband was reluctant at first when he saw how expensive it was, but he knew that I would use it. I am constantly making new things - especially quilts. I paid for my machine in one year - 12 even payments and don't regret spending the money ONE bit. It's a great machine! Read how I did it…

I need a new sewing machine. My old one died 2 years ago, and i hate borrowing my mother’s. I don’t need anything fancy just a basis model. I want to get one within 1 month.

My boyfriend bought me my Singer 7470 Confidence sewing
machine and it arrived few days ago.
I can’t be happier this moment, because I have the best
Singer electronic sewing machine and my boyfriend

Finally I have my very own sewing machine!

I wanted to have my own sewing machine forever!
I had one really old Singer that never worked right, which wasn’t really mine.
Singer makes great sewing machines, so I’ll definitely buy one of those.

Start to a Sew-Productive Fall
14 months ago
I know nothing about sewing. Okay, so that’s not entirely true. I once sewed a pair of denim Capri’s with the help of a friend’s mom. I got to wear them one time until I realized that I forgot to prewash the fabric. They shrank to a toddler’s size after their first wash and I never sewed anything again.
However, that was well over 10 years ago and was probably my first and only real experience with a sewing machine. Now that I have more free time on my hands, I’ve decided to make another attempt. One problem…I need a sewing machine.
I just browsed Overstock.com and found something that I think will fit my needs. Can’t wait until it gets here.

Hello Kitty, goodbye bad fitting clothes
16 months ago
I invested in the most delicious looking Hello Kitty sewing machine. It was a little pricey for something so simple but it’s made really well and it takes care of all the little jobs I need done.
