Well, I've done it. I've bought one of the dreaded things. Though sewing machines and I have bad blood between us, this little light weight one was just the right price. Anyone here with experience with this machine? I can still take it back if it is a loser.

Oh Debi, it makes sewing so much easier now. I'm so going to enjoy this little machine. Where do you teach? I am curious if you do workshops or such. I need sewing camp for dummies, I really do. This will make it easier to get things done. One less stress is a good thing.

Oh, how nice. I am very glad you took the picture. These little brother machines are great. Mine is a CS 6000, I use for classes.

I bought it at a pawn shop for $40 and I can take it back if it doesn't work right, or I can't figure out how to use it or what not. I think the machine is just fine, I just need to learn its tricks. I haven't had a sewing machine since my early twenties and I'm machine challenged to boot  but I think it will be worth playing around on and learning. I'm looking forward to many aprons

I wanted a treadle, but this was so affordable and light weight, that I thought for basic aprons and dresses, it should do fine. I'll get a pic of it once I get all of the Christmas decorating stuff off the table

I've got that model. It's a nice basic machine that will get you by.
I'm spoiled now by my vintage machines that will sew through the tough stuff. (aka: fixing denim jeans) I haven't found a "modern" machine that can tackle the rough sewing that
always seems to come across my sewing desk~they just aren't built to survive anymore.

Yep, bought mine with the winning from the super bowl pool last year. (I kicked butt) Anywho, love the machine. I have sewn a million miles on it and had not one problem. Love it!!!
