What do you guys use to sew quilts, tarps, etc. with? I don't have a sewing machine, but I know my wife has wanted to get one for some time. Maybe now is the time:) Thanks for your help,

I want to try painting the back of one of my jackets a nose art design. What sort of paint do you recommend. I was reading a blog where I guy uses acrylic paint you’d use to paint on canvas. Others say you need a leather paint. In the 40s I highly doubt they had special paint for leather. I could and more then likely am wrong on this point but just wondering again what you all would recommend Thanks

thank you so much for your suggestion

I'm just learning about this subject. I think I need a heavier duty machine with a walking foot, straight and zigzag stitching. Do I need any other features? I want to do the occasional bit of canvas work and repairs, probably not big sail work. I'm a 'value buyer'. I.e. i don't want to shell out for a Sailrite. Used or budget new would do.
