SEWING MACHINES I OWN
I have 3 Baby Lock sewing machines.
- Baby Lock Jubilant.
- COST: $
- This is a great machine for piecing. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of the machine I will share next, but I love it! When I am chain piecing, this is what I use.
- Crescendo
- Cost: $$$
- This machine is amazing! It has a large throat space, sews smoothly, has a laser that helps me get perfect lines, and is just everything I ever wanted in a machine.
- Sashiko
- Cost: $$
- This is a specialty machine. It does not do your piecing, and is known for only doing one stitch – the Sashiko stitch. This mimics the hand quilted look and that’s exactly why I love it and bought it. You get the hand quilted look without all the work. This is my favorite toy machine, as I like to call it.
