Which one? I have the 1034D, and I love it. If you're looking to get this one, check on amazon. Every so often they have it on sale on amazon (the lowest I've seen it was $150)
I want to get a coverstitch machine, but I think they're $500+

I'm still deciding, I didn't end up buying one. Cuz now I'm like I probably need a new sewing machine all together. I have an old singer one which isn't that great.

I went cheap with my current sewing machine. It's the brother CE1100prw. Walmaer had it for $100 some months ago.

I've read that some of the newer singer machines aren' that good.

Yea, I've heard the same thing about Singer. A lot of people attribute it to the parts mostly being plastic. That's what put me off Singer. I remember a girl said she burned through hers within 6 months.




This is the video.

Anyone have a dress form? If you do what brand did you get and do you like it? I wanna get one because it's harder to hem longer skirts, like the burgundy one I posted, and being petite is even worse because it doesn't seem like any other brand has any, aside from Dritz and their adjustable dress forms (which I heard aren't very sturdy). :hhh:
