WOOP! I have started a new video series on YouTube

WOOP! I have started a new video series on YouTube and oh what fun this is going to be! 😃❤️
In this bargain sewing machine series, I am looking at machines that don't cost an arm and a leg, to see just how suitable they are for making bags.
.
The first machine for this review, I purchased on marketplace for A$70 (around USD$45.00).
.
So, Ive cleaned her up and we shall see how she sews....
.
…..and in the next video, I will make a bag with this machine, so you can see along with me!

Check out Cindy’s AWESOME Snazzy Slouch, shown over in our Facebook group! 😍❤️😍❤️
Cindy had these comments to say about Snazzy:

“The Snazzy Slouch doesn't get enough love IMO! It is the perfect size for a large bag, can be carried crossbody, has an awesome divider pocket and best of all - no zipper tail! The exteriors are cotton canvas from Joann that I waxed myself. The interiors are plain cotton canvas and quilting cotton. I added an interior zipper pocket and turned the bag through the bottom of it after watching Amanda's videos. I also added the fleece to the lining because I couldn't fuse it to the waxed canvas. The zippers are from My Handmade Space. Is anyone else amazed at the cleverness of this pattern and in awe when you turn it right side out and it works!? The yoke design is perfection. Chris is a genius!”
.
Thanks Cindy, I now have a swollen head! 🤣❤️
