Old sewing machine question .. EMDEKO machine

Jan 18, 2007 1 Replies

I own a sailboat. As such, lots to sew. But .. I don't know anything about sewing.



I got a book, told me to find an old machine, and I posted in town.



A lady called and offered me an old EMDEKO sewing machine. It is metal.



Is this machine going to do it for me? Will I be able to sew through cloth such as Sunbrella?


Dunno... Is it like one of these?

A little reading seems to point to it being quite a workhorse, so if you got it free/for less than $20, it's certainly worth trying! :) If it isn't quite up to the job, you can pass it on to someone sewing less tough stuff than you need it for.
