I am approaching retirement and am anxious to get back into sewing and quilting. I have a lovely sewing and embroidery machine that I hesitate dragging to classes and sewing guild meetings. Not only is it heavy, but I am concerned that I may damage it.
I am considering purchasing a smaller machine and would appreciate your input. I am considering a Brother 900D. I think I would enjoy the Disney embroidery options. There are so many options......
Any thoughts?
If all you need it for is quilt guild and classes, don't go so expensive with a full on embroidery machine. You already have one of those. Just a simple $200 Brother machine will do wonderfully for those short sewing sessions away from home, and the machine will be light and easy to handle. Also you could consider an older Singer Featherweight or 301, which are also little workhorse straight stitchers and easy to transport.
