New Sewing Machine and Another Fold Flat Basket

The new machine arrived yesterday and I tested it a bit this morning. It is GREAT! I finished up a sew flat basket (number 2, v 1.1) and it sewed through several layers of thick fabric with ease. I especially like the automatic thread cutter; it saves thread and time in cutting a piece away from the machine at the end of a line of stitching. A more comprehensive review of the machine will come at a later time.

The basket has a few flaws but overall, I am happy with it. Getting better at this sewing thing, gradually.
