I don't have any first hand experience with this sewing machine but I found a comprehensive review on a Toyota sewing machine. The sewing machine that she tested and reviewed is the Toyota SPA15. The machine are for newbies or those people who want a decent basic machine.
Overall the build feels fine and it is light too. One will find in the box bobbins, stitch ripper, zipper and button hole foot. All the important accessories and stuffs are close at hand and there is a big space for sewing base.
This machine is ergonomically designed because the arm is set back from the stitching area and makes viewing of sewing easier so one don't have to slouch or lean forward. One thing that makes this sewing machine appealing is that you will be able to wind bobbins without having to unthread the top thread since the motor for the bobbin and the sewing machine are separated from each other. There is a separate battery too for the bobbin winder which is very fast!
In addition to this, the machine comes with a very handy and helpful manual which is written in good, clear, simple English and there are many diagrams that will help you understand the machine better. There are clear explanation of what heck tension is and how to insert a zipper. And it can handle bag making too.
The stitches all work fine too and the button hole machine foot guide and instructions are clear as day. This is her verdict: This is an excellent machine who is very easy to handle even for a newbie. It has very good layout together with a fabulous manual.It also sews like the wind and it sails through bulky layer.
The price is affordable and even a beginner can purchase this machine and use it with ease.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
