More about sewing machines

Friend Jeff wrote me yesterday to tell me that I was sadly off them mark when it came to my amazement about programmable sewing machines.

Me? Off the mark? No....

Anyway, turns out these things have been around for a while and it's just me who is late to getting clued in. Actually it was Gizmodo or Engadget since that's where I got the reference, and they were amazed. So I was amazed. Hah!

Still it's cool that you can get sewing machines on the consumer level that can be programmed by a PC. That rocks. I'm happy to see new tools coming out that allow people to realize designs in their computer to more than just paper and bits. I really like these new low-end physical printers which are literally creating 3D shapes on the fly from CAD drawings. Very cool.
