The regular sewing machine has been designed to sew together thinner fabrics, like clothes or bags. However, the thicker the fabric becomes, the harder the machine is forced to work. This means that regular machines might struggle to sew together more solid fabric items, like curtains. In this area, you will be better off purchasing a heavy-duty machine. Because their motor is more powerful, you will be able to get through these thicker materials without overworking your engine.
