Gonna have to take some time and watch through these all!
I have a lovely old dressmaker machine (made in japan, all metal, weights an absolute ton!) that sews through umpteen layers of fabric like butter!
BUT it is currently misbehaving and I'm having a hard time justifying $90 tune up fee for a $25 garage sale find (especially since I had 2 other machines that needed repairs recently...a vintage neechi and my everyday singer heavy duty machine).
Ladies, we have an expensive habit!
