    Thanks Jeff! I'm pretty pleased with it!

    Rev, the gentleman that owns the shop let me test drive it first. It sewed through 4 layers of denim like it was a single piece of 30d sil.

    It's an imported machine with the Remington badge. These Singer Class 15 copies were made by many overseas manufacturers with a wide variety of badges. These are generally very well made machines.

    That's a good question. I should try that out tonight now that I've figured out how to adjust the tension so that the bobbin thread doesn't bunch up inside the needle plate. The tension was waaaaaaay high. Gave it almost a full half turn to loosen it up to get it back where it needs to be. It also has butterflies, moon scalloping, and a fish. Now I just want work to be done so I can go home and play.

Probably not the last.
    Very nice!

    Well, Throkda loves to spoil me and I've got a ton of sewing projects coming up in short order so he got me something I've had my eye on for well over a decade.



    I've had a sewing machine for years and use it creating all kinds of stuff. Now he just picked me up a serger. Can't wait to put it to good use.

    I was messing with the wife's Husqvarna tonight. It was encouraging. I ordered some material from DIY gear supply and will start with a messenger bag for a diaper bag.

    I also have an old treadle machine, but the belt is loose and won't grab. I do want to use that one.
