Hi,
I've been browsing the archives of this newsgroup and found a few
threads (forgive the pun) that relate to my issue (e.g. [1]). My wife
has a heavy old (about 25 years) Jones machine that breaks her back
when she lifts it, and breaks needles regularly. I suggested I
replace it for her birthday, and we plan to take a look at some.
She doesn't want something that will do all sorts of clever things,
but does want to be able to do curtain tapes on reasonably thick
curtain material, or turn up the hems on jeans. Can anyone recommend
a machine that is reliable and fits this purpose. I was thinking of a
budget of say =A3150, plus or minus =A350.
