Monale---- do you choose not to have a sewing machine...hope I am not being nosy......your handwork is great, so I know you could do great things with a SM......
I'm actually not really using inklingo. Too afraid to jam up my poor printer, too, I guess! I've just seen the designs on their webpage and made my own plastic templates.

I'm a bit undecided about getting a sewing machine... I'd love to have one, specifically: a vintage Bernina 830 (that's my mom's machine on which I learned sewing as a kid/teenager). However, it is currently not very practical for me to have my own sewing machine as I'm a bid of a "nomad" and a sewing machine is just a very heavy item to move... And it needs space to set up... Plus I'm not so sure if I could get a decent machine for my budget here (definitely no vintage Berninas around).

But whenever I am near my mom, her machine "comes on holiday" to me. She says it's going to be mine one day anyway, but I hope that day is still a VERY long time in the future!
