I haven't gone & squandered a load of my hard-earned on a new machine (not just yet, anyway!), but swapped machines with mum for the time being. The theory is, that if I am going to buy an updated machine in time, having a bit of experience with a couple of types of older machine will mean I've a better idea of what I want from a new one.
So I approach this month's QAL blocks with trepidation - I have the fabric for both blocks cut, & now I have to actually do some sewing...
It's too early for a glass of fortifying Christmas sherry, isn't it?
I think it's okay to switch machines. Whatever works best for you so you can complete your projects. Look forward to seeing you stars. It may be time for a sherry in your area of the world, but it's just past noon here so I have to wait a few hours;-)
ReplyDeleteI think that as long as you are careful about your seam allowance, you'll be OK. Oh and the sun's gone down so no, it's not too early for a glass of something alcoholic. After all, it is Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThe sewing machine is working out well, girls, thankyou - although quite a a bit of yesterday was taken up faffing about marking the footplate with tape to my satisfaction so I can better judge 1/4" seams.
