Why do we need a sewing machine under the circumstance where clothes can be bought online and in stores at any time? Many people keep skeptical about the existence of sewing machines because of the convenience to get clothes, curtains and other apparels. However, when your kids want a suit of special Halloween costumes, or you haven’t found the desirable curtain you want, these moments are exactly sewing machines’ privilege to cultivate your creativity and operational ability. Besides, DIY dresses or blouses are the most suitable clothes for yourself, so you don’t have to put up with a well-cutting dress but its neck design isn’t perfect. Through sewing, everything can reach your requirement and you can gain the fun of the whole process.

When you son’s newly-bought pant legs are too long for him, you would negotiate with the supermarket to change, or pay someone to shorten the pant legs? The best solution must be repairing them by yourself with a sewing machine. Kids want a suit of Halloween costumes for the party at school, so a hand-made garment can make your kids attract all the audience. It’s time to make a cooking apron, or a new curtain to decorate your home, bringing a sense of warmth reminding the old time when mommy still takes charge of the knitting and sewing work for the whole family. Read the following sewing machine buying guide and figure out the best sewing machine for you.

The best sewing machine review is definately the "simple-used" or "easiest-used" ones, so the first factor to consider buying a sewing machine is definitely its sewing performance. A machine programmed with dozens of stitch patterns makes your projects more decorative and unique. Meanwhile, the adjustable stitch width and length can add creative patterns on your work, and you can adjust them to the fabric you’re using.

Our CARINA 32-Pattern Mini Sewing Machine is a perfect machine with 32 different stitch patterns and 3 stitch dials. 2 dials for adjusting stitch length and width respectively, with another one to guarantee the quality of stitch lines. Its special appearance features the free arm style, whose easily-operated cylinder offers more convenience to home use. As for switching different stitch patterns, you can adjust the dial and check the pattern through a hole to display.

• Portability

Some considerate people may get used to bringing a portable sewing machine just in case while in travel. Most of the portable sewing machines adopt lightweight or handheld designs. Because of their limited sizes, their functions aren’t as complicated as those multi-functional units. Mostly they are only able to finish basic repairing work.

The Portable Household Mini Handheld Sewing Machine shapes like a stapler. Thread winding through the flap clamps through the needle. The mini size enables you to do some sewing work that can’t be done on desktop. Its power origin isn’t electricity but only your hand. If you’re afraid that only handy operation isn’t enough, we have another electrical one, Household Mini Handheld Electronic Sewing Machine. With the help of electricity, you’re more able to keep the stitch line neat.

• Accessories

After getting a sewing machine, buying some basic accessories is another inevitable job. For more convenience and cost efficiency, most people would like to choose some units with complete accessories like bobbins, thread cutter, extra needles, stitch foots etc. They’re helpful and eliminate the trouble of searching for matched parts. Multi-Function Portable Mini Sewing Machine with Built-in Light and 64 pc Bobbins is attractive on the 64 colorful bobbins, bobbin pins and so on.
