Brother XL 2620 sewing machine

[MrsBexie]

Hi!

Ok so I have been wanting a sewing machine for ages now!!! And we are very tight on money so waiting for a good sale.
Target has a Brother XL 2620 sewing machine going on sale tomorrow for $149!!! That's 50% off!! It has like 26 stitch options, auto button hole etc... much better than the other machines I have been looking at for the same price! I am SOOOOOO excited!

I just have to convince DH to let me buy it now! I have already called and they have 30 in stock.

Anyone have this machine or a Brother sewing machine?? I know they are good but I just want to hear some other feedback..

I got the Brother LS 2150 in target sale at the start of the year, have only used it a few times but for me who has no idea its great!!

Enjoy

Do you sew a lot? If you already have the skills, and do a wide range of stuff, then it might leave you behind, But if you're on your Ls still, or even your Ps, I think it will serve you well.

Enjoy!

Oh, and I have just received a massive donation of fabric, sing out if you want som

[Feijoa Mum]

Wow thats awesome!
I didnt even know that Target had sewing machines??? Where abouts are they?

I told DH I wanted one for my birthday this year so if I can get one on sale and a bargain at that, I may just have to think of something else I want instead

I just bought a brother and I LOVE IT!!!! Mine's the NS50 I went up a bit because it's going to be my 'forever' machine.

Mind you, if they had some of the 2620s for the price you're quoting, I would've definitely gone for that one

Loving making projects at the moment, recycling all my old tees into bubba clothes! Good luck with yours!

Audax: I am only just starting so a basic machine is great Ooh if you want to send me some fabric that would be awesome!!!!!!

FM: do it!!! it's so cheap for a good sewing machine!! I say buy it and ask for something else! haha.. I have no diea what section but she did transfer me to electrics when I called up so maybe around there? Or homewares? I have NO Idea.. I will let you know tomorrow

and I asked DH if I could buy it... HE SAID YES!!!!!!!!!

I am SO EXCITED! I am going to buy some calico and attempt my first pair of ruffles tomorrow! Eek!!

Ok next question, what else do you need once you buy a machine????

[MrsBexie]

Krystals:
Oh that's so good to know!!!

[MrsBexie]

So i have made 3 pairs of ruffles so far and love my machine!!!!!

i love sewing!

[corolla_chick]

i have a brother and find it good
i do stuff up a bit tho... so have tried some more expensive cotton to see if this helps

[Beach Mama]

How exciting! It is so addictive! I find the necessities to be a pair of tweezers- makes threading much easier, some little scissor snips for cutting thread - need to be nice and sharp!, oil to keep your machine in tip top shape, Gutermann thread is great - a bit more expensive but worth it. Happy sewing!

[MrsBexie]

I get guterman thread, it's pretty tough! I need one of those quick unpick thingies and a white pencil for marking fabric...
I love my machine! It is awesome!

argh im gonna cry... I moved to America and bought the same exact machine over here before i left for the same price... now im back to have my first bubba and I brought my machine home with me as I was here for 4 months and could make stuff!! Anyways all ready to sit down and sew and the machine calibration is all out of whack.... my poor machine and now I missed out on this sale I have to get a new one.. I need another brother.. any one with any ideas or help would be great I loved my machine
