The Janome DC5100 is new for 2011 and combines a unique set of stitches and powerful motor with technology that promises to produce beautiful, professional stitches.
This is the sewing machine you want when you plan on doing a lot of sewing and when the appearance and quality of your stitches will be an integral part of your work.
(And I’m not just saying that because its adorable pink accents are a perfect match for this site!)
The Singer 7258 sewing machine is about to become the best rated Singer on this site. Lots of stitches, accessories, positive reviews, and my favorite buttons make this one a winner.
In fact, this gives a few of the most popular Brother machines a run for their money. If you’re heart is set on this brand read through the details below. I think you’ll find this is an ideal choice whether you’re looking for your first machine, a replacement for an older one or as a gift for a beginner.
Here’s a final list of last minute sewing machine deals for your 2010 holiday shopping. I hope it saves some of you some time and a few dollars, too.
In typical fashion, I’ve crammed too much into this final week before Christmas which is why I love online shopping. I prefer my pajamas, a bathrobe and a cup of cinnamon coffee for shopping rather than the hustle and bustle of the mall. (Actually, it’s not the mall I mind. It’s the parking lot!)
This means that I’m doing my Christmas shopping online tonight and I took some notes any time I came across a deal I thought worth sharing here. Hope this gives some of you just the idea or savings you were hoping to find for under the tree!

Here are a few ideas to help you cover the cost of a new sewing machine and have fun doing so at the same time. You might even find yourself with a nice, little business on your hands.
While a new sewing machine doesn’t have to cost a fortune, considering today’s economy, even a few hundred dollars might seem out of reach for many but a little bit of imagination and effort could make it much easier to afford.
See this cute bathrobe? It’s adorable, right? Sweet, pink bathrobe with a shark fin designed for infants. I’m well past the age for needing infant sleepware but even I want this! And you know what? There are some really easy bathrobe patterns out there.

Initially, the Brother XR9000 sewing machine was available almost exclusively at Costco but it’s recently become available at several other locations. An included hard cover case and extension table, lots of automation and a low price are hard to ignore.
It might look familiar, too, as it’s identical to another popular Brother model – the SQ9000.
A couple of months ago I pre-ordered The New Complete Guide to Sewing 2010 edition. It showed up today and what a handy book to have around if you’re a beginner.
Now, I LOVE the other books I’ve purchased to see my through my sewing journey but I’m quickly finding that each book serves its own purpose and that having a few on hand is not only common but often quite useful. Doesn’t hurt that they look good on the bookshelf next to my sewing machine either. Makes me feel rather prepared!

The Janome 3160 QDC sewing machine was built with quilters in mind. All the best quilting needs are built right in! Want to do other types of sewing? No problem.
Beautiful stitches are a given with Janomes but you’re also going to get an extra long extension table, the latest feed dog system, complete button operation for all functions and the whole thing is packed into a full-size machine that weighs just over 12 pounds.
The Janome JNH1860 sewing machine commemorates Janome’s celebration of 150 years of great sewing. It’s a great showcase of some of the best in automation and quick set up along with a beautiful collection of stitches.
This one’s not yet available online so I’m off to visit my local dealer to gather more information in the next day or two. Wanted to post this much, at least, to satisfy the request from a recent site visitor. 😉
Brother sewing machines are incredibly popular as a choice for home and craft sewing. They offer regular machines and specialized, combination models capable of handling quilting and embroidery, too. You can find them being used in homes, schools, and at community sewing classes. The company has made award winning innovations in design, stitch quality, and automation.
While Singer was “the” sewing machine to own for years, changes in ownership and the availability of other brands have caused them to lose market share.
