In a meanwhile Im trying to find my backup organization

Finally, i have found my life savers who's still willing to help me out with my Traditional Embroidery organization that I'd choose which it call as "sulam goyang" . Why it's called by that "Sulam goyang" because it still using a method like normal embroidery like using a hoop or in Malay call it as"ram". The 'ram' which used as to control the pattern goings or the main point in embroidery thing is as to make the fabric taut so can produce a neat and good pattern onto the fabric. When we look at their pattern it's look so vintage but I believe that i can make an improvement or an innovation onto that kind of thing. From the classical pattern can be an contemporary pattern or hipster? Maybe 🤔

So, this is a machine using by Kak Safarina

The hoop or "ram" is the main needed when doing an embroidery

So, my new organization is a wife with 2 kids and 30's series of mother who is still love to sew and make an "sulam goyang" as customer request. Besides, Kak Safarina doing an embroidery on fabric, she is active accept making an "baju raya or baju kurung" when customer needed it on Eid Mubarak or any occasion. Rate of the price when doing a normal "baju kurung" is just RM30 and above. Valuable right and she is a detailed person when looking on her work and products.

So, Here Kak Safarina or easy to call her Kak Ina 💌
Want to know the next journey I am with her. Stay tuned!

I knew absolutely NOTHING about embroidery machines, so when doing the research, I didn't even understand the terminology to know what to look for. Since then, I've learned quite a bit about these things, but I am certainly not an expert. I'll start by saying that I ended up with a Singer Futura. And this is what it looks like. It's pretty light, considered portable, and converts between an embroidery machine and a standard sewing machine by switching out the arm. The embroidery stitching happens just like a sewing machine -- the needle moves up and down, sometimes very fast. The design is produced by moving the hoop. So while the needle is stitchi...
