What changes at your sewing table

The SINGER Heavy Duty 500 is the kind of machine you leave out on the table, ready for hems, repairs and the next project. It is sold as heavy duty, so denim, canvas and bag projects are part of the plan (with the right needle). The listing includes a carrying case.

Everyday cottons or thick fabrics?

Denim and canvas are what it's sold for. Pair the SINGER Heavy Duty 500 with a jeans needle and go slowly over the thick seams.
