Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
As my birthday is coming, the number #1 thing on my birthday wish list is the Singer Izek Sewing Machine. It is SO cool.
It combines sewing technology with video game technology to create one very unique machine. A friend of mine has one and from what I can gather (as I haven’t really played with it extensively), you can program stitches via the game boy and come up with some super fun results. It also has 84 built in stitches and does everything from buttonholes to monograms. Cool!
The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!
It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.
Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
Oh, I’ve been wondering about those. I saw one about a year ago online, but there was little information. Think the machine would be compatible with a Nintendo DS rather than the gameboy?
Hi Candi,
I was looking for video showing how the machine works, but no luck 🙁 Do you have a site that shows more than a picture? I really look cool.
I scoured the internet looking for a video of how it works and have yet to find one. I thought it did come with a video how-to if you bought it brand new though.
I guess I’ll just have to get one and report back!

I have this. It does do a lot of different stitches, but it is NOT an embroidery machine.
