Hi,
I am planning to buy a new sewing machine - I have one cca 7 years old Pfaff
(don't know the type by heart, but it was one of the basic sewing machines at a
rather low cost) and I am looking for something more professional, solid and
quiet. Firstly I thought about buying an industrial sewing machine, but since
I don't sew day and night (I sew once in two days and usually the whole
weekend), I thought I won't make the best of it. And anyway, I would really
need full automatic buttonholes and lacing holes. I would also profit from some
decorative stitches.
I know there are half-professional sewing machines or home-sewing machines of
higher quality (better materials, more metal, less plastic). I've been
recommended the Janome MC 6600 Professional. I have a Janome overlocker and am
very satisfied with it, so I suppose all Janomes are of a good quality.
Do you know this sewing machine or any other you think that's good? I plan not
to spend on it more than $1500.
I also have a special question regarding the lacing hole stitch. Can it be
enlarged? Does it work? Is it possible to use for lacing when I have no time
for hand-made buttonholes? How much stress can it take?
Thaks for advice,
Zuzana
