Bullseye

Here’s me working with my new sewing machine!
It’s a Janome 2860, last year’s model in Janome’s range of basic mechanical machines. Janome also makes computerized sewing machines with RS-232 and USB ports, touch screen displays and super-complicated interfaces that can embroier you a Winnie the Pooh at the touch of a button, but I don’t need that. I love my 2860; it’s everything I need to sew a huge range of stuff and it was on sale. 🙂
It has a very clever needle threader, an overlock stitch that I’ve already fallen in love with, and a blind hemming foot that works well. (The last one I had was a nightmare.) Something that new to me is a free arm for sewing cuffs and such with out having to turn them inside out. What a blessing.
Now I just need to decide what to sew first.
