Some cam performers love costuming. From cute and new shirts to unique props, there are many ways that performers can add to their shows. One of the things that some do, especially if they have sewing experience already, is make their own. There are many fantastic sewing machines out there, but getting one designed for clothing making and clothing re-use is often best.
Depending on the projects you want to do, as well as your budget, there are three sewing machines that we have reviewed and determined to be great for this application.
Juki HZL F600
For most people, this one is overkill. It is so smooth to use for people that have experience and comes with all the fixings. This is a great machine for fast and clean projects. It comes with tons of feet and can sew thin cloth to thick. If you are looking for a top sewing machine for making your own clothing, this is a top choice. It also comes with 8″ of throat space, which is excellent.
SINGER Heavy Duty 4432
Getting a sewing machine with heavy a heavy duty metal frame and the ability to sew cloth and leather, an automatic needle threader, and a high sewing speed, has it’s benefits. It’s got a strong motor, buttonhole features, and it’s automatons make it an easy to use system. It is portable, powerful, and comes with a warranty. It will work for many cosplay outfits, scarfs, pillows, and more. It does have a plastic bobby casing, which may not last as long as the machine itself. Getting a backup casing may be a good plan. At a great price, it is a fantastic option for people learning how to sew for the first time, and novice users as well.

Singer Quantum Stylist 9960
With a great extension table, and 600 stitches, this machine is great for customizing projects. The machine is discontinued, so customer service may be limited. Tons of people have complimented the machine and it is on many top ten lists for sewing machines still. This is a middle priced machine on the list, and is consideration for people who want to start sewing as a hobby, or already have some experience sewing and want to expand to a more advanced machine.
