Singer Athena 2009 Sewing Machine
I just got the new Tuesday Morning flyer and they are selling a Singer Athena 2009 for $199.99. It's $399.99 on HSN and JoAnns website. I don't know anything about this machine, but may be worth looking at if you are in the market for a very reasonably priced machine.
I found it online at http://shop.tuesdaymorning.com/dsp_p...id=1&pid=13135
Maybe other who own it can comment for the benefit of those who are shopping.

I bought this machine in May from Tuesday Morning & have enjoyed working on it so far. It was a BIG step up from my 35 year old White machine & has not given me any trouble since I've been working with it. I have been able to sew about 6 baby quilts on it & numerous small projects without any hitches. I also stitched a quickie quilt for my grandson using a patchwork fabric from JoAnne's with a fleece backing & didn't have any trouble going through all the layers. For the price, it's been a real blessing for me.

I havent found a video on the new Athena but I can post a YouTube tut this week if you still need it. I purchased my Athena on HSN with a ton of extra feet and attachments for $299 and I LOVE it!!! I can't say enough good things about my Athena. Of course I upgrade from my moms Singer machine from the 80's so that could have something to do with it . I quilt and make garments for my children. The only thing about this machine from a quilters perspective is that it doesn't have an automatic needle down, but my old Singer didn't have one either so it's not a big deal to me.
Let me know if you still need that YouTube vid.
