In this episode, a very exciting delivery interrupts the podcast &#8211; my new sewing machine and coverstitch! I chat about which machines I&#8217;ve bought and why,  the latest Bishy Barnababes pattern &#8211; the Ballerina Briony free-motion appliqué (FMA) &#8211; the essential foot for FMA and what I&#8217;ve been sewing in my sewing room!
