I want to start quilting–what sewing machine is best?

By admin | July 11, 2009

capanda.geo asked:


I have basic sewing skills, but do not want to get into the big fancy quilts or buy a really expensive machine. I’m looking at rag quilts and I’m thinking those would be easy and fun to make for gifts. What machine would be good for that kind of simple sewing?

      Hi - this might be a co-incidence - but we are in the Sewing machinery business since 75 years now.

      For normal quiliting - a small table - top Lock-stitch sewing machine should do the trick.

      Check Here..
      Information on household sewing machines including trouble shooting guide, types of machines, and parts.

      also check for small machines on Ebay.

      Don’t go in for those small toy-like Or stapler look-alike sewing machines - they don’t Work & will go in the garage sale.
