Remembering to Look at What I Have Before Looking for Something New
I was very happy to recently acquire a vintage sewing machine that works like a dream! But it won't be adequate for some of the heavy duty requirements that some of my projects might have.
My first thought was to invest in something heavy duty. That thought evolved to looking for another vintage machine that could handle the jobs I need it to do. From there, I remembered that I actually have such a machine, in a closet, that I put away some years ago because it needed some servicing.
After checking with a friend who is a professional seamstress, I was convinced that digging out that machine and getting it repaired would more than meet my needs.
I'm happy to have been led to this conclusion and reminded that repairing good sturdy equipment is often worthwhile. The flip side of the lesson is knowing what you have, thus having what you need. It's a nice symbiosis.
