Nurse FIXIT please, I need it yesterday! Did you know that there are four (4) things that will kill a persons desire to sew? Here they are: #1 - An inexpensive poor quality sewing machine or a machine that does not work. #2 - Poor quality needles. #3 - Poor quality thread. #4 - Poor quality fabric. When you sew you take pride in your workmanship what you do. You want it to last, sometimes for generations. Buy quality. You will only buy quality at your independent retailers.
