SuzieQ - First Look -
So I was a good girl -
And I watched the instructional DVD -
And wound a bobbin -
And threaded her -
And sewed a few test stitches - ;))
She sews a pretty decent stitch -
And her 1/4” inch foot works really well -
My HST came out at 2-1/2” like it was supposed to -
The photo is at an angle to cut down on the glare -
And my two little pieces cut 1-1/2” x 2-1/2” -
Came out at 2-1/2” square - YAY!! -
She even has a “Stipple stitch” - Stitch #49 -
The one in the middle - I was fiddling with the stitch width and length -
But the ones on the left and on the right are at the default settings -
And a “Lazy Daisy stitch” - Stitch #27 -
And a “Loopy” decorative stitch - Stitch #75 -
I still need to do a proper REVIEW -
But so far - I think I LIKE her - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

I love that lazy daisy and the loopy stitch! Good that it seems to be sewing an accurate seam too. Did it come with a quarter inch foot or you can change the needle position to produce it?
Have fun playing with it!
The "lazy daisy" and "loopy" stitches are just a couple of the decorative stitches - it has a BUNCH more - ;))
There are actually THREE ways to do a 1/4" seam. It came with a 1/4" foot AND it has TWO different stitch settings for 1/4" seams - one from the RIGHT edge of the fabric and one from the LEFT edge of the fabric. You can use the default settings for those stitches AND/OR you can adjust the needle position - ;))
I'm having LOTS of fun - thanks! - ;))
New toys are such fun!
Instruction book? I'm sure I've heard of those...somewhere....
