Recommendation for New sewing machine
As salaam Alaikum good morning ladies. I’m a true diehard of my Vintage Singer 401a. However it DOES NOT sew ITY. I have tried with a walking foot, different needles, changing settings you name it. I took ownership of my late sisters Brother VX-1120( manufactured 1998). I have been using that the last 2 yrs. The zigzag started stitching iffy on top but the bottom is perfect. I took it to be serviced. Even if it’s repaired the machine is sentimental. The repair guy recommended the Singer Heavy Duty no specific model & Bernina no specific model just recommended the metal frame one. However BERNINA is expensive. I have tried thrift stores, online of all platforms looking for a brother machine of any sort that was inexpensive & possibly have it serviced. Then i said NO i dont want to buy something that’s not working @ this stage of my life because i was just getting back into the groove of sewing. ANY & ALL SUGGESTIONS are welcomed.
Wa Alaikum as salaam…. I use the Singer Heavy Duty and I love it 😍 it sews ITY well, just change the needle to a ballpoint . However, The sewing machine is a bit heavy in weight.
