I like your new blog look! I’ve enjoyed your recent projects sewn with Mood fabrics and I am sure this upcoming year will be filled with many more. I like your fabric choices for the patterns you use. Your style is consistent. Carry on!
Thank you for this comment, Robin! It seemed to be time for a new blog look but I accidentally sent out a post when I was trying to create this page! I hope I will continue to be consistent but not become repetitive……. finding balance is always the great challenge, huh?
I love reading your blogs! You have truly inspired me to keep sewing! Thank you for all that you share! I am looking to upgrade my sewing machine. I presently own a Babylock 6600 that I purchased new in 1991. Mine now has a one step buttonhole and does 21 different stitches. The majority of my sewing is apparel. I saw a beautiful scalloped edge on a RTW dress that I would love to try and was wondering if there was a machine that would do this among other fancy stitching. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Susan Morton
Hi Susan!
Thank you so much for writing! How luck you are to be getting a new machine…… I have a new serger, but my sewing machine is a 1230 Bernina. It was the top of the line 20 years ago and is still going strong
I believe the best thing to do is to visit the stores and get a demo on what each machine offers. Good luck!
Shop at Mood all the time . Looking forward to following you.
