Should I use the embroidery hoop when stitching on beads?

Monday, June 7th, 2010

I’m finishing up a cross-stitching project. All I have left is to put on little beads. Should I use the embroidery hoop to keep the cloth taut like normal? My concern is that the hoop will mess up the beads when it’s time to adjust it and move on to a different part of the piece.

Thank you!

What kind of sewing machine should I get to last me for basically the rest of my life?

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

I’ve been using my mother’s Singer Meritt 4530 for years now, and am now looking to buy a machine for myself. I generally sew purses, mend clothes, etc, but am looking to get more into making clothing/accessories as well as quilting. Is there a good, solid, all around type of sewing machine that I should be looking at? What type of features should I look for in a machine that would allow them to work for the type of sewing that I want to do?
