EZ Self Threading Needles (12pk) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The item states it comes as a 12 pack, but I received a 6 pack. About 1/2 the needles thread easily through the "EZ Threading" top, and the other half cut/rip the thread rather than threading the needle. Also, this item was small enough to fit in a small envelope, but instead of sending it in a 42 cent envelope they sent it with a magazine and put it in a large padded envelope that cost me $4.82 rather than 42 cents for shipping. Other than that the needles work fine.

Three different sized slit eye needles for every need. The thread is stretched across a guiding slot at the top of the eye and then pulled into the eye without having to locate the tiny hole. These self-threading needles will let you continue doing small mending jobs without resorting to magnifiers to thread the needle.

Brother XL2610 Free-Arm Sewing Machine with 25 Built-In Stitches and 59 Stitch Functions Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just bought this sewing machine about three weeks ago. I got it as a replacement for a Bernette that I used for about thirty minutes total that the repair man could not figure out how to fix. I am working on my fashion certificate and needed one right away. I picked this one partially because it was PINK!
This machine is easy to use - bobbin winding, changing stitches, portability, two-needle. I like a mechanical machine. I have not tried the buttonholer yet. A great first machine! This is my fourth. I like the reverse, the freearm, the size.
Petty annoyance - the presser foot is low when up, so when you need to know where your needle is going into the fabric, you have to knock the foot up with your finger so you can see - not a big deal. BIG deal - put the zipper foot on and then you have to adjust the needle width out of the zipper foot groove to get the seam close enough to the zipper, because the foot is wide(???) at the back and on the same level(???) as the foot itself. Maybe I'll just use invisible zippers.
If you are rough with things, do not buy this machine. Many of the parts are plastic, like the presser foot lever. We use that a lot.
I have sewn with many layers of denim, very light fabrics, and much in between with great success. Just change the needle after each project.
I hope I have given you enough information to begin to make an informed decision.
