Sailrite Ultrafeed vs. Look-a-like Sewing Machines
www.sailrite.com Sailrite’s patented Ultrafeed LSZ-1 sewing machine is a very successful product that is well supported and advertised. As such it is an easy target for companies that produce look-a-like machines. But the comparison really does stop with the physical appearance in photographs. Inside the quality differences are easy to see. Our parts are stronger and made of better materials. Sailrite’s factory and partner in Asia only produces the machine for Sailrite. All look-a-like machines come from other sources and utilize inferior parts and body castings. But the best reason to get a Sailrite machine really is the support and tuning that is done from our Indiana facility. Sailrite machines are guaranteed to perform and they are supported so well because Sailrite survives off of repeat business. As you may already know, Sailrite sells fabric and sewing notions and not just sewing machines. Please see the following video for a more in-depth review of the quality of Sailrite’s Ultrafeed sewing machine.
Rag Quilt Triangle Quilting Tip
Brought to you by the Rag Quilt Classrooms of ragquiltingwomenworldwide.ning.com and www.SewPractical.com. I use a lot of triangles in many of my rag quilt designs. A simple single row of stitches is all that’s needed to hold the triangle sandwich together. This video demonstrates how to use the straight lines that exist on your sewing machine to be able to keep that stitch as straight as possible. First I used the front edge of the sewing machine. As I sew along, the tool case guides me. Then the edge of the bobbin casing. Finally the strike plate. Your sewing machine may be slightly different but it will be the same concept
