Need A New Pandemic Hobby? Here’s How You Can Get Creative At Home

P.S It’s Julia Roberts’ and Emma Watson’s favourite thing to do too

March 7, 2022

The Brother INNOV-IS NV180D Sewing Embroidery Machine

If there’s one good thing to have arisen from the pandemic, it’s the new found appreciation for traditional hobbies. After all, with limited travel and large scale events still on pause, sometimes it’s nice to get back to basics and try something new that isn’t confined to catching up on the latest binge-worthy Netflix series.

A hobby that’s slowly taking Hollywood by storm is sewing (you’ll be in good company with Gwen Stefani, Britney Spears, Julia Roberts and more). There’s a reason why more and more people are picking up the craft. It could be a therapeutic way to unwind and relax your eyes from all that screen time, a sustainable way to repair and reuse your damaged clothes, or to some, even a means of livelihood.

While hand-stitching is great for small things like tiny holes or loose hems, it’s definitely a lot more time consuming, not to mention, you have to make markings and be super accurate with how you stitch, and sometimes just eyeballing it isn’t going to cut it. With many mums leading busy lives with endless chores, why not invest in something that’s going to cut down half of the time and effort spent?

This is where a sewing machine comes into the picture. The Brother Innov-is range is a line of sewing machines which have advanced capabilities such as sewing, quilting and embroidery. Thanks to its sophisticated features, you’ll love the convenience of its automatic thread cutter, smooth, strong sewing, longer feed as well as its J foot. Here are two versions of the machine that could work for your needs.

The Innov-is NV180A: A superior machine makes all the difference

As a good machine can last you a really long time, it’s better to invest in one that has all the qualities that you need. Targeted for the serious sewing enthusiast, the Innov-is NV180 has features such as built-in embroidery designs, sewing stitches and embroidery fonts, helping you to bring all your creative ideas to life.

With 80 built-in embroidery patterns, 181 sewing stitches, 3.7” colour LCD touch screen and a USB port for a USB flash drive, this high-tech machine will answer all of your sewing needs.

Craft projects aside, sewing machines not only will help you to repair clothes, you can make all sorts of products with the Brother Innov-is sewing machines. Does your child have a craft project for school? You can easily make soft toys, costumes or upcycle things at home.

Want to ensure that your kids’ generic t-shirt has a little bit more oomph? Then you’ll want the Innov-is NV180D. While it has all the same features as the Innov-is NV180, as a bonus, this machine will allow you to add appeal and personalisation to your projects using the built-in designs and fonts that include special Disney designs! How fun is that? Think matching Mickey Mouse t-shirts or cushion covers for the living room that you won’t be able to get anywhere! If you want Mickey to wear a pair of blue shorts instead of the usual red, with the on-screen editing function, you’ll be able to change individual thread colours, place lettering in an arc, and more – all at the simple touch of a finger.

And if that’s not enough for you, the USB port will allow you to easily import and export embroidery designs or perform machine updates. Think how excited your kids will be to receive their own custom clothing – it’s fun for the entire family!
