Beginner Sewing Machines: What to Look For

This week on "Stitch Please", We get you prepared to buy your first sewing machine. Lisa gives you the pitfalls that you should avoid, when looking for a machine, that will keep you from making some of the same mistakes that other new sewers might have made. We also get a chance to hear from other fellow sewers who give you great advice when you are in the market to make such a big investment. Buying your first sewing machine can be frustrating, but let Lisa and friends help you find the machine that will fit you like a glove. So settle in as we help you get your stitch together!
