    Oh my gosh. Thank u so much. I've been sewing for years on my mums very old wooden singer. Now I've got my own modern one & I've started to use it a lot recently & been having these issues that you've just resolved. Can't wait to play with my machine again with my new knowledge. Thank u

    We've been moving, jostling things from storage to home, etc. I was worried my machine may have suffered because my boys aren't always gentle, when they need to be.
    I live in a small town that only has one repair shop. It's been closed because of Covid. It's so helpful to have ways to check my machine for simple issues, like the tension dial having been moved, before I drive 100 miles, round-trip, twice, & spend a fortune having it serviced. THANK YOU!

    Just had a 'Dah' moment. I've dropped needles into my serger a few times and had to retrieve them with a magnet. Why oh why didn't I think of putting a piece of fabric down. Dah SMH.. Great tips you are my goto for any problems I have with my machines.

      @@AbisDen I think so. I was using a Necchi Rossi 200, but I changed to a Singer Tradition, and finished shirt off with that. We t back to the Rossi for buttonholes and sewing buttons on though. Worked fine for those. Love your tutorials hon, keep them coming. Thank you X x

    Do you have any advice on how to make sure the hook is at the top when you finish the stitch? It seems really hard to do even when sewing slowly.

    I have a problem with my threads nesting when I am sewing thru elastic. What could cause this. Stitching is fine when sewing thru the regular fabric on my project.

    • @AbisDen
      @AbisDen  Před rokem +1

      You could try out a stretch needle, that should work 😊
