Welcome back to another edition of Not-So-Wordless Wednesday. I missed last week, this month is going by far to fast for me and things that I don’t even want to think about are sneaking up on me. It’s enough to make a grown woman curl up in a ball. In the mean time I have been trying to meet sewing deadlines and commitments. I have come to realize that Irene is my new best friend when it comes to piecing, she is deadly accurate and just a dream to sew on. She sits in front of Jan, my trusty Janome Horizon and go to for any type of quilting. I don’t know why but when I walk into my sewing room and see the two of them like this it always makes me giggle.
I hope you have a very happy hump day!
Quite the pair! 🙂 They look happy.
Featherweights are the best!
Bigger isn’t always better!
I just pulled out my featherweight to sell….then couldn’t part with it! Set it back up and she sews like a breeze. I pack everything up for the winter, then leave, and just never set her back up again! Shame on me. I get my new Janome Horizon at the end of next week and am so excited!!
They look cute and mischievous. I wonder what they’ve been up to while you’re out of the room.
So what is funny is I took my Janome in for service and pulled out my featherweight the other day and when my Janome came back I set them side by side for the same comparison.
Double Trouble
Or better yet, Two Times The FUN!!
Making a difference, one sewing machine at a time.

Will you teach me everything you know?

We have the exact same machines!!! My problem with my featherweight is two things… It goes so much slower than my big machine, I find that I get frustrated with the speed. It’s been taken to the shop and I asked about that and my guy said that it is the motor size, which is normal and he suggested that I should not change it. Also, I got a 1/4 inch foot for it but it is a different foot than my regular machine and if for some reason I have to go more than 1/4 inch in, it sucked my fabric into the feed dogs. I have only used the machine for scrap piecing rather than regular piecing due to these two issues but I have heard such wonderful things from everyone else about piecing on their featherweights. Any suggestions?
Decisions, decisions — which one to use!
