    I purchased an industrial Juki during the summer. It is one of the best investment I've made this year.

      Excellent! Yeah I’m currently getting used to my new one, it’s an adjustment for sure but so necessary! I’m going to do a bunch more videos on tips and tricks using it so hope yo come along for those!

    Nicely done. Don't overlook some of the vintage machines that can be picked up inexpensively. Many of the vintage, straight stitch only machines are powerful, accurate and have features such as pressure foot adjustment and continuous backstitch, and they can sew through multiple layers of all sorts of stuff that new domestics cannot (easily) with a beautifully executed stitch on top and below. Because they are fully mechanical, they can be easily fixed and maintained. Always by the best quality that you can afford and remember that you can stretch your budget by buying quality used machines. However, my Bernina 910 is not much less expensive now used than it was when I bought it. Susan, your approach to having a stable of machines that can be leveraged makes much sense.

      Yes, this is true. I have had many vintage industrial sewing machines. They were powerful and I loved them. I sold most of them when I stopped producing clothing. The only thing with that is some had issues that could not be fixed. Otherwise, you can save on cost. Also true my vintage Viking machine was over two thousand new back in the day!

    Thanks, you give me a better idea of what I need. I’ve been sewing for long time my little projects and my machine is 40 years old. I want to buy a new one. I will go for a home machine.

    Hi Mam,
    First thing you are Fabulous 😍 it was a video I needed.
    I have started my fashion designing course. Am in a dilemma whether To buy a Juki industrial machine or Singer Heavy duty 4432 to own in my home. Can u please provide your guidance

    • @susaneliascouture
      @susaneliascouture  4 года назад

      Thank you so much for your praise. Congratulations on starting your fashion design journey! I always say you need both a good industrial machine and sometimes a home sewing machine for zigzag stitches and buttonholes. Learn learn learn with professional industrial machines as early in your career as possible! I hope this helps:).

      @@susaneliascouture sorry for late reply mam. Thank you so much. Am planning to buy a Juki as my first sewing machine.
      P. S Will it be a good one to buy a industrial machine directly.

    What do you recommend for men’s wear designer I’m having trouble with pattern making for men’s clothes

    • @susaneliascouture
      @susaneliascouture  4 года назад +1

      As far as sewing machines for menswear. You will need a straight stitch machine, serger, buttonhole machine, and a blind hem machine. As far as pattern making for menswear the most important thing is the base patterns or blocks that you make designs from. I have done some menswear.
