Quilting Scissors
Advice on purchasing my first sewing machine?
Hi! I am buying my first sewing machine this weekend, and am looking for some advice on other “accessories” I might want to get (threads, scissors, etc). I am not much of a sewer, although I did take two classes in high school. I am looking to eventually make a set of curtains, and then on to some blankets and quilts. I really don’t have anything else.
Not sure if this will help, but this is the sewing machine I plan to buy:

Thanks in advance for your thoughtful answers!
That is a great deal on a good quality sewing machine. I would recommend adding a seam ripper to your shopping list as well as spare needles for your sewing machines in various sizes as you will need to change the needles depending on the thickness of the material you are sewing. I should also tell you that the quality of thread you use is very important, dollar store thread sometimes is such poor quality that it is impossible to get the right tension… Also a fabric measuring tape, spare bobbins and I like to use chalk and a ruler to ensure you see a straight line. Hope that helps, good luck!!
