Brother SE270D Computerized Sewing and Embroidery Machine: The Pure Joy of Sewing

By Michelle Robert

As a little girl, my mother sewed nearly everything: clothes, household items, you name it. This was in the days when all girls learned to sew because it was a financial necessity.

Despite learning to sew myself, as an adult I found that sewing did not particularly save me money, nor was it as commonplace: in fact, it was not a complement at all for something to be "home-made". And with outlets and discount stores, many things were cheaper to buy than to make yourself.

But then I had my daughter and my sewing genes emerged. I guess my artistic side yearned to make beautiful items and wanted a challenge for my creativity. Interestingly, my interest in sewing coincided with the renaissance of sewing and crafts in general, as many folks discovered the satisfaction that comes from creating something is "hand-made".

So the world of sewing creatively, as opposed to sewing out of economic necessity, was opened for me and millions of others as well. We all learned that sewing is fun, relaxing, and a wonderful way to keep the creative juices flowing. We sew because, unlike our mothers who sewed because they had to, we want to!

The neat thing is that the sewing world is a lot more fun than the one our mothers lived in! For example, sewing machines can do a lot more than just the basic running stitch! Our machines are now computerized, providing so much versatility and stitch variety, and many even offer embroidery patterns.

The Brother SE270D Computerized Sewing and Embroidery Machine is a wonderful example of one of these "all-in-one" machines that provide us with so many fun things to create! With 97 embroidery designs, there is a huge amount of versatility. There are even 5 built-in embroidery monogram fonts in 3 different sizes, so that you can create an unbelievable variety of emblems, logos, and insignias. There is just no limit to the possibilities, or to the fun for that matter.

It is certainly true that sewing can be financially rewarding, whether making your own garments to save money, or making/altering them for others to generate income. But for me, and as I suspect for many others. the reward comes from the sheer joy of creating! - 33381
