I was pleased to see that most of the comments on another forum where someone else posted the link were of the "I really don't want you using my dressmaking shears" type.
Just thought of a apt comparison with this blog's subject. I was recently conversing with someone who seemed incredulous that a home sewist might possess five machines.
This isn't that uncommon, although I don't myself. A starter machine, a later one with more bells and whistles, someone's great aunt's cute little old one that needed a new home, and a tuff industrial one when the sewist embarked on 100 costumes. That's four, add a serger (overlocker) perhaps.
That's not a factory. I know ppl with that many. Cf "arsenal" as used by the MSM) All the best, cycjec.
Where's the reloading gear?
