Ssshhhh, I don't want my husband to know yet. I have a Brother sewing machine that is basic. A couple of years ago my husband bought me a serger for Christmas. I thought I would love it but I can't thread it. I took it to a private class and she showed me but I still can't do it on my own. So, it sits and has not been used. Now that I am starting to be interested in quilting I am thinking of checking into trading in both of the machines for something but needs some guidance. I want something that I can still do regular sewing since my granddaughter is interested. Every Christmas we sew presents for family. But I would like one that I can also do fancy things. Any thoughts?
