I have a quilty friend who I went for lunch with yesterday. During lunch she was talking about wanting to buy a new sewing machine. She had a list of features she was looking for and said she had kind of found one but she was going to think about it a bit longer.
So lastnight I popped over to her place to pick up a pattern we had talked about. She said "Come upstairs, I have something to show you!"
Well, didn't I come upon a very pretty, newly purchased sewing machine. It's a Pfaff Creative 2.0 which up until last night, meant nothing to me. She told me to sit down and put a piece of fabric under the needle. She said, "Now press the pedal". I said, "Where's the lever to drop the presser foot down?" She repeated, "Press the pedal".
Oh my, what a dream machine that is. It dropped the presser foot, it put the needle down, it backstitched, it sewed like a Cadillac and then it backstitched and cut the thread!
I have a little Singer that I think my mom paid $189 for. Granted, I've made some pretty quilts on my little machine but boy, what a treat it would be to sew on her machine every day.
One day, I will have the $$$ to afford such a nice machine.
