It's hard to imagine a time when fans had to make their own costumes from scratch using Simplicity and McCall's patterns sheets. Jumping forward several decades we not only have a huge range of licensed Star Wars costumes and prop replicas, as well as amazing cosplay resources, to fill the void - we now have the Brother LB500S - very first Star Wars sewing machine!
Brother USA has developed a Star Wars themed sewing machine - the LB5000S - which is perfect timing for not only May 4th but the resurgence in crafting. This isn't your ordinary electric sewing machine either because it's packed with 21st century technology lile a 3.2" LCD touch screen display that gives access to the interface that lets you select one of the 80 pre-installed emroidery designs and nine fonts.
The LB5000S even comes with interchangeable faceplates to help you customise your sewing machine, and has a USB port that allows you to update the library of fonts, stiches and patterns.
You can order your's through Amazon.com or direct from Brother USA - and get free shipping - for $499.99.
Because you can't spell sewing without SW, isn't that right?
