It was my 47th Birthday and we are in a Pandemic and I had nothing to do and decided to Take up Sewing to sew masks for 1st Responders and my husband bought me this Sewing machine which was Amazingly easy to use and did a Great Job. I can honestly say I went from never sewing a day in my life to actually being really good at it now and I owe to the Singer 4452 Sewing Machine!!! Thank you! :-)
