Brothers Sewing Machine

When I was growing up things were much different than they are now. We lived in a very small down and we were allowed to play for most of the day away from home. You did not hear about child abductions or non custodial parents snatching their children. In the summer months the only organized activity that I took part in was 4-H club. It was a family tradition to take part in 4-H and I am really glad that I had the opportunity. We did a great deal for the community as well as learned many skills. I took an interest in cooking as well as sewing because of my membership in 4-H.

When I was in high school I took home-economic classes. I was able to take the more advanced classes because I already knew how to cook and sew. The great part of sewing in home-economics class was using a Brothers sewing machine. My mom had a nice machine but it did not have all the attachments and options that the Brothers sewing machine had. I was fascinated by the automatic button holes as well as the variety of stitches that could be done. There were even special needles that allowed you to top stitch with two different colors of thread.

After I was married I bought a second hand sewing machine to be able to repair rips and tears. I did not do a great deal of sewing; however I was interested in getting into quilting. My sister-in-law is a quilter and she was making some beautiful things. My husband came home from work one day and said that he had heard that the school in the small town where he works had over ordered Brothers sewing machines. They were selling the over stocks for the cost that the school paid. This was significantly less than the retail on the machine. I asked him to pick one up for me. I sold my old machine to my sister.

My sister-in-law spent a day showing me how to use the many functions that have been added to the machine since I was in high school. Now there are even more stitches and features. I have started my quilting lessons by buying the material to make a quilted table runner. My sister-in-law that it was better to start with a project that would go faster so I would have a finished product in a shorter period of time than it takes to make a quilt for a bed. So far the project is going well and I love my new Brothers sewing machine.
