    @TazPoltorak @Bfordham some toy machines cheat by only being able to make a chain stitch instead of the lockstitch used by modern¹ machines: those aren't really sewing machines, they can't be used to follow instructions designed for sewing machines and I'd recommend staying away from them even as a “starting” machine, because they really aren't one.the main issue being that the chain stitch unravels, and using it to make functional garments will require a lot more handsewing and different techniques that those used today.as the first sewing machine ever built, they were time saver when sewing meters and meters of ruffles on a 1850s dress, when you were used to sew 1840s dresses by hand, but really, sewing machine technology has moved on :)¹ i.e. since the second half of the 19th century :D

    Second craft show ever - Stress!!Sold a few things so not a total bust. Need to work on better displays, I think. While packing up after the show the one figurine that was just the original mold and *didn't* have the additional round base poured for the bottom of it was toppled by my husband, fell to the floor, and broke. That's a sign to *always* supplement the original mold with a stable base for them, I suppose. #CraftShow #Handmade #HandCrafted #Sewing #Craft #Art #FediArt #MastoArt

    No sun in the forecast today. Here's one I made many years ago. A baby quilt. The baby is now an adult. #sun #quilt
