The SINGER® M1000 mending machine is only 5.5lbs (2.5kg), making it a lightweight, portable sidekick for the sewist-on-the-go. An affordable machine with easy set-up, a portable size, preset stitch settings, and 32 stitch applications that will assist you with simpler mending, quilt piecing, or basic crafts. For thicker fabrics and more applications, a full-size machine would be recommended.
