Day 17: Your Sewing Machine #GreatBritishQuilter 🇬🇧 ✂✂✂ I hold my hands up, guilty as charged, I have 7 sewing machines: 1) Juki TL-2010Q - straight stitch, large throat for home quilting and the best workhorse ever. I absolutely love this machine. ✂ 2) Juki Jet-Air Serger MO-1000 – threads itself using air ✂ 3) Bernina 440 QE – before I moved over to Juki, I was a Bernina girl through and through. I still go back to my Bernina baby for anything other than straight stitching. ✂ 4) Bernina Artista 180 – this Bernina has the embroidery module, but I never use it. ✂ 5) Singer 99K (1954) – my Grandma bought this machine for my Mum, who gifted it to me and I brought it across the Atlantic to America in my hand luggage – quite a talking point at airport security. I taught myself to sew on this when I was 5/6 years old, and it means the world to me to have it with me now. ✂ 6) Janome Fastlane – this machine weighs only 5 lbs and I purchased it purely for doing 10 minute sewing demos in Manhattan, it's light enough that I could carry it to venues using the subway. For my needs, it served its purpose well. Note: I wouldn't recommend it as a main machine, or for retreats, or as a spare, or as a child’s starter machine. ✂ 7) KAYanEE Sewmaster (1940s) – this toy machine is my sewing room decoration. Some people say it doesn’t count as one of my sewing machines but, it works, and I love it, so I say it does count. ✂✂✂ #sewing #quilting #sewingmachines #jukitl2010q #jukihome @jukihome @Juki_club #bernina @berninausa @berninauk #singer99K @singersewingcompany #kayaneesewmaster @sarahashfordstudios @verykerryberry #mbCD #madebyChrissieD https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnz16PbBNfp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ei67xwc4dvtj
