Kate is a long time crafter, mom, and lover of all things pumpkin flavored. Kate also has some BIG news—She finished her first quilt. She plans on riding this wave of accomplishment well into the new year, while also setting her sights on her next project—definitely something with flying geese. In the meantime, Kate is spending her time chatting it up with the pros about all of some quilt-related queries, in the hopes of gleaning all the crafty knowledge that she can.

On this episode of the Connecting Threads Podcast, we’re talking about sewing machines. First up Kris and Judy give us a crash course on everything we need to know about shopping for machines. They also share some of their favorite models, features and accessories. 

Next Elise and Kate chat about how to troubleshoot problems that may come up with your sewing machine. If you’re like Kate and grumble at the notion of reading manuals, you’ll want to listen in as Elise goes over the most common troubleshooting issues. But also, don’t be like Kate—read your manual.

So grab your autumnal flavored hot drink, your needle and thread, and listen in as we delve deep into all things sewing machines. Enjoy!
