This topic was addressed a few wks ago...you could probably go in with keyword and see opinions...
I'm saving up for it and hoping it will come down in price.
I've gone and worked on it and love it...but 2400 is allot for a one stitch machine...So I'm hoping by end of yr it might come down in price...

While you are saving up, try out one of the tutorials on line for mock Sashiko. You can make it look pretty good with a standard machine.

Thanks. I looked at the old posts and learned that I may need to put this on the backburner for a while. Not sure I would like the "chain" stitch on the back except for small projects like totes, purses, and maybe table runners.

I love the idea, but think the cost is WAY to high. Think it is one of those things that I would love for a few projects and then forget.
