In fashion world our work cannot be complete without the use of sewing machine. In other words, sewing machines is what we use to bring about what will call FINISHING to our work.
Not only fashion designers use sewing machines, these machines are also used by shoe makers and bag makers. But they are mostly used by fashion designers for tailoring.
I will be introducing to us the various types of sewing machines we have and the functions or rather say the works they do for us.

This machine is basically used for sewing straight line and not for any other. And this machine is also used by shoe making and bags. It can be refer to as the most simplest and easy type of all the machines. You can either use it with electricity or manually, but most people prefer to use it manually for easy accessibility. It is produce by different companies with different label. Let me try and analyze the names of the product I call recall. We have;
