Sewing machine help what should I buy?
I’ve had my faithful Brother sewing machine over 25 probably 30 years and it has had a lot of use
It does basic stitching straight and zig zag that I use for edging as I don’t have an overlocker, a few embroidery stitches , button holes and variable needle spacing
It has been playing up lately tension slipping and making a clanking sound
I rang a local shop who quoted £45 to do a service plus any repairs or parts
Worse case scenario £150 for parts
Decided a new one would be money better spent
I’m looking for something lightweight that does what my machine does plus any other useful things you may think of use
You don't have to be as mad as a box of frogs to be here but it helps:mysmilie_13:
