    My grandmother and mother-in-law wouldn't believe all the wonderful features. My grandmother taught me to sew on her mother's treadle.

    Lets not forget there are plenty of vintage machines out there that are really great price but more then that they have plenty of decorative stitches, metal body and heavy motor that will sew a bumper on a buick without hesitation. lol They have build in button hole, zig zag, embroidery capabilities and are easy to repair because they are mechanical, not computerize or electronic that fail a lot and cost a lot to repair, and a lot of sewing repairmen hate seeing those plastic machines come in. I have been a tailor for over 30yrs and I have always used vintage machines. The newest machine I have is a singer made in 1994 and the oldest is a White brand made in 1958. Even my serger is a 1986 and it sews like a dream. I have 11 vintage machines and they have made wedding gowns to men suits to cushion covers to quilts and never let me down. If your starting out sewing and not sure how its going to go, I would recommend a vintage machine. Its also a way to learn about a sewing machine and how they work on a more simple level then all the computerized and electronic stuff to get in your way. Then if u decide to stick with it then by all means get yourself a 2023 machine....or not.😉

      I wish I had your skill. I started sewing as a teenager but then forgot about it when I went off to college and started working etc, I wish i would have stuck with it.

      I agree. I bought a Memorycraft 9000 Embroidery machine from my quilter. Paid $400.00. It's from the 90's. Had it for less than a year and had barely used it. Now it won't turn on. I think the electronic board went out. Pretty sad that a machine built now only lasts 25 years. Currently using my awesome Featherweight while waiting for my other machine to come back from being serviced.

      I learned how to use a sewing machine in the 60s. When I decided I wanted to sew again I bought a moderately-priced computerized machine that worked well but I didn't like always having to look up the codes - I just couldn't memorize them. I sold it and now have only vintage machines.

      Я согласна .что механические машины намного прочнее. У меня тикматик пфафф немец .5860 более 25 лет .шьет все .Но иногда хочеться красивую строчку дополнить в изделиях или что то вышить

    I absolutely love my Lyric. It's a machine you won't need to "upgrade" for a while, if you are a sewer or piece quilts

    Great video, thanks.
    It would have been nice if you had mentioned the price of the machines, either written on the screen or mentioned verbally, just for easy reference.
    I'm a garment sewer myself, I'm currently using a very basic entry level machine, and I'm seriously considering updating.
    I'm not in the USA, but honestly, your shop looks fantastic! a dream to visit. I wish we have such great sewing machine shops in my country.
    Thanks again for the video and best wishes for your shop and your lovely staff.

    I think vintage is best as well. I bought a top of the line Singer back in 1975 and it's still going today. I did have the tension worked on once, but it's a great machine! If the power grid goes out, none of these would work, would they?

    Thoughts on a Janome HD1000 & Bernette b05 Academy.
    I want something that I won't be limited on. I'm looking to explore & do some simple quilting projects. I want a good quality machine that will last me. I dont want computerized :)
    Im not sure if the HD1000 is too basic of a machine.

    Seriously helpful-thank you so much!
    I will say I still don’t know what machine to buy. Wish I lived in Spokane so I could just swing by to chat with you all! 😊
    I want to make things out of duck canvas, and I also want to repair and alter my clothes … denim jeans, thick fleece hoodies, stretchy technical fabrics like schöller pants, as well as thick wool sweaters … I have a really nice wool sweater that fits great but sleeves are too long.. so I want to shorten them.
    My instinct is that I need a mid-range heavy duty sewing machine (the Janome HD9BE looked perfect until I saw the $2500 price tag lol)… and a good serger/coverstitch combo machine.
    I guess I’d spend that if it will make life easy and pay for itself quickly by allowing me to produce quickly. But if there’s a cheaper machine that will do just fine, I’d love to know your advice and I’d even buy from you if you’ll ship it to me.

    It would have been a better experience for me when I purchased a new machine for my wife a couple years back to have had a store with the variety of brands that you have shown here.
    In my experience shopping for a more advanced machine is a tricky process even after all the research, and test runs the machine we chose was an overall disappointment.
    The best machines are the simpler the better since 99% of stitch work is straight stitch for the average sewer.

    • @TheQuiltingBeeSpokane
      @TheQuiltingBeeSpokane  Год назад +1

      It is definitely helpful for customers and our machine department staff alike to have many different machines to choose from to find the best fit for each individual sewer.

    okay, i realized this question is too generalized. I know it all depends on what you want to do on a sewing machine, and what level are you in sewing and WHAT TYPE of sewing machine you want. but the good thing is that you have so many choices. mechanical, Heavy Duty, or computerized.
