Sewing machines are what makes the magic happen!
It’s important to choose the right one which you will enjoy sewing on.
There are so many functions and capabilities to a sewing machine, depending on the garments you want to sew.
In this post, I will share my recommendations for the most popular sewing machines, for different levels and their functionality.
- Beginner – starting out and want to test out your ideas before making a bigger investment.
- Advanced – Strong and robust machines which have the capability to manage one of a kind individual garments, including producing short production runs.
- Heavy duty – high speed sewing machines which are ideal for managing light weight small industrial production runs.
If you get an opportunity to test drive sewing machines, I recommend you do so!
It can be fun, but at the same time difficult to make the right choice because of the aesthetic of modern day machines. It’s the business of selling machines, which can seem to be based more on looks rather than their performance – after all they do the same job which is to stitch.
There are differences from brand to brand and even model to model.
I have tested many different brands in my time, and it can be hard looking past the prettiness and shiny buttons.
Stay focused and remember you are choosing a sewing machine which can produce quality clothing, for the stage you are at in your journey.
