Vintage Machines / buttonhole options
« on: April 04, 2020, 19:30:51 PM »
I have recently bought an 850 record and 807 minimatic bernina neither came with buttonhole feet, what options are there and how well do they perform please?

A Good Yarn / Re: Is there such a thing as a "small" knitting machine?

The LK150 comes in segments and I have seen (probably on one of the Ravelry groups) where someone bought a second machine to lengthen her existing one and made up the left over sections to use for scarf making. The full machine length is 43" less one section 36" less 2 29" and even 16" width is possible but not sure what knitting width would be, machine knitting is much tighter than hand.

Thank you the differences in the foot attachments could have easily be missed, mind i'm hoping not to become a collector of feet!

 I am hoping someone can help.  I am thinking of purchasing a bernina sewing machine and the series 1000-1008 has caught my eye. Does anyone know the differences and advantages in there models.

Hello all, I'm returning to dressmaking after about 25 years so I expect to be asking for advice rather then offering it. My old Singer Harmonie 400 doesn't like me much so I'm on the lookout for a good second hand Bernina one with easy button hole function and possibly one that will handle leather.
