If you are looking for a new sewing machine to try, a pattern less machine may be just what you are looking for. There are many reasons why you may want a pattern less machine but they include ease of use, convenience and the fact that they are less expensive than their full-size cousins. Let's take a look at these pros and cons.
 

Less cost is one reason that people opt for a pattern less machine. Because the parts that make up the machine are smaller, the parts are also cheaper. These pieces also are made of durable materials so they will not break easily. Plus, since the components are smaller, they are lighter and you can usually use them in the house because of the portability.
 

However, there are some disadvantages associated with using a pattern less machine. First of all, these machines tend to have shorter lifespans than their larger counterparts. That means that the longer you own the machine, the more you will end up paying for it.
 

Another problem that most people have is with how easy it is to put the pattern on the fabric when using a pattern less machine. The process is actually very simple but some people are still having trouble. If you are the kind of person who has difficulty putting a pattern on the fabric and you do not mind a bit of an extra step then a pattern less machine might be the right choice for you. If however, you do not have the patience or the need to put the material through the pain of sewing, you may want to stick to your full-size machine. After all, you will need a machine that will get the job done with little hassle and make it easy for you to finish the sewing projects.
 

Finally, you need to realize that while the parts are usually smaller than those used in full-size sewing machines, you will still need to get the proper tools to fit your pattern into the correct hole. It might be easier if you have the right size of a screwdriver or a small metal spatula to help you do this. You also will need to make sure that you measure the hole carefully and that the correct holes are drilled.
 

No matter which kind of patternless sewing machine you choose to buy, the fact is that it will take a bit of practice to get used to the machine. That said, you will be happy with your choice in the long run.
