What is a Handheld Sewing Machine?
A handheld sewing machine is a sewing machine meant to be operated while being held, rather than needing to rest stationary on a solid surface. The handheld sewing machine is intended largely to replace hand stitching, and is not really meant to replace the type of tight, strong stitching that a true sewing machine accomplishes. A handheld sewing machine may also be referred to as a cordless sewing machine, a hand held sewing machine, or a portable sewing machine. The main place one sees a handheld sewing machine is on late-night television advertisements, where they have become very popular in the past few years. Promising to take the inconvenience out of everyday small stitching tasks, they appear to work beautifully, creating straight, tight stitches with very little work. Priced quite affordably, at anywhere between $6 US Dollars (USD) and $30 USD, they also seem to be quite a deal.
