I posted asking if anyone had the Babylock Sashiko Machine a couple of days ago...so far no one does...I've tested it and want it but hoping it would come down in price...Full price 2400 but I've found a couple of places offering it for 1900...
I discovered tonight since I was reviewing my Instruction bboklet for my Viking SE that it does a hand stitch but you do have to use invisable thread...It's close but it's a Faux Sashiko...I'd rather have the real thing...It is a great machine and if you have a chance to try one...it's amazing and the look is truly a hand stitch....
If you go to the Babylock website they have a video of it in action.
