Congratulations on your new machine, ever since I watched Ruan unboxing her's I have been watching vlogs on UA-cam as I need a new one, old one needs putting out to pasture 😢 price scared me, daughter sez go for it, now seeing you unboxing yours,well, my arm is twisting right up my back 😂. I doubt here in NZ we will get the bonus box 😢. Looking forward to hearing more from you about the machine. I'm sorting out my new sewing room, I've just moved and room smaller than my last one, so I have a bit more time to watch you and Ruan "play" enjoy your time with your grandchildren and hopefully the weather is nice for you and your sister, yes I follow you 😂 regards Diana from NZ 🎉❤
Hi Diana, it is a big investment, but such a wonderful machine though. I have had a bit of a play, cut out some shirts to sew and I have a big to make in a heavy drill fabric so that will be a good test for it. Hopefully I can get the other one fixed properly and have it for my granddaughter to use and classes. The UA-cam video by Megan from sew and Tell is over an hour long, but very informative, a real class on using it, it got me over the edge to purchase it. Sorting out your room, that is a great deal of work, I am now looking at where I can have more shelving, I have a very large room but always seem to need more space. Have great sewing week, Deb 🪡🧵💕
Ooooh! So exciting! I look forward to seeing your “documentaries” describing what you make with your new overlocker. Love, love that fabric you are wearing. I did try to get some, but the Dahlia Sewciety only had it for those who subscribed to the box. The colour looks great on you.
Thanks Anne, I can’t wait for my documentaries either 🤣🤣 I’m still In Barwon Heads at the moment so will get back into it as soon as I am home, have a great sewing week, Deb 🪡🧵💕
Thanks Cat, Happy New Year 🎆, the new overlocker is wonderful and sews beautifully, looking forward to a fabulous 2024, have a great sewing week, Deb 🪡🧵💕
Well done Deb, I was expecting to contact you so you could try mine, but had no idea there was an Echidna shop in Yarra Valley. I think you made the right choice and those feet are a big bonus! It’s a strong machine and you will be thrilled.
Congratulations on your new baby lock! How exciting and you will get so much out of it. I'm really keen to see more 'docu e taries' as Neil Calls ir haha ❤❤
Hi Helen, that is much more convenient for me to go to Glen Waverley, they were very lovely on the phone, I ordered online and they called to check the delivery address was correct and it took 4 days to come, great service. Have a great sewing week, Deb 🪡🧵💕
@@helencarr1229 thanks Helen, I subscribed when I did the purchase, next time I am in the area I will drop in and check out their shop, that could be deadly as I always find something to buy, happy sewing, Deb 🪡🧵💕
Congratulations on your new overlocker Deb, you are the third person to have bought this machine (one is Kristen from the Dahlia Sewciety and the other is Ruan, The Yorkshire Sew Girl), I am interested in why you chose the Baby Lock over the Juki. I have the basic little Brother overlocker and it never skips a beat, it has even run over pins and just kept going....
Hi Ally, it was the auto tension that tipped it over the line for me, the Juki doesn’t seem to have auto tension. I had read a great deal about both machines and watched UA-cam videos on both, I think the Babylock is the next best thing to a full industrial overlocker. If you watch Megan from Sew and Tell Australia she often talks about the Acclaim, when I was at Frocktails I was talking to Megan and she explained the auto tension in detail so it really sent me in that direction. If my Janome, which is less than 12 months old had not been difficult since I smashed it I would not have upgraded, it had become so unreliable, not the machines fault but my fault for allowing it to slam down into the cabinet, I will be sending it to Janome to see if they can repair it properly as if it can be repaired it will be a great machine. Overlockers do last for years and years, usually. My granddaughter Phoebe is six and can use my sewing machine under supervision, so if it can be repaired it would’ve great for her to learn on. I had a Janome for 20 years then I had mums Janome for 10 years, so if all goes well they last a long time, I will be really careful when cleaning this one as that is how mine slammed into the bottom of the cabinet, with all the doors open, it bent everything. Your Brother sounds like a good one, keep taking good care of it, Deb
It’s wonderful Libby, I got this fabric from a Dahlia Sewciety box, it’s the Laundry Day Tee Dress by Love Notions, very comfortable, have a great sewing week, Deb 🪡🧵💕
