Sew Awesome

This handheld sewing machine seems crazy! Does it work? I think I’ll have to buy this guy and find out! It might come in handy for quick hemming or craft projects….

Oh, but I would love to have this industrial-looking machine! Straight out of 1930…

Wow, I’m loving the sewing goods that Urban is now promoting. My mom said that sewing was really popular in the ’70s and it looks like there’s a resurgence, especially if sewing supplies are being sold at mainstream stores.

    I love that little tool. I have seen it before in Urban Outfitters too but they don’t have it anymore. Do you know where could I find it?
