This has been a life saver! I'm not much of a sewer, but now that I'm retired I'd like to try some projects. I've had this machine for years and I honestly thought I was going to have to purchase a new machine. Thanks Stephanie!
I NEEDED THIS VIDEO! 😭😭My mom gave me her old singer and I’ve been fighting with it for weeks trying to get the threading right! This was a God send!! You explain things so well!
Thank you so very much, I couldn’t figure out how to get my bobbin thread up and no other tutorials had these type of machines, thank you thank you 🙏🙏🩵
thank you so much!!! my parents found a singer sewing machine in the trash years ago and never had a manual and finding this video made the stitching soooooo much better, the bottom stitch would always end up all knotted. and thanks to your video we found the solution!
I have this machine and you made a small mistake threading it. After you do the first thread guide and you go to the second thread guide you do not wrap it around the top, that is for filling your Bobben. You’re just supposed to go underneath bring it back up and over the top and then down. I hope this was helpful.
I am so happy you uploaded this! I am a newbie, just got an old-school Singer 290, and it has the same system, and thanks to you, I was able to thread the bottom thread!! Thank you!
Thank you so much! Grabbed this machine from a thrift store-in the box, missing everything except the foot pedal but I could tell it was never used! This is super helpful
Spent an hour trying to figure out how to use this thing after not touching a sewing machine since high school, turns out my machine doesn't have a bobbin case. These kinds of videos justify the existence of CZcams, appreciate your help.
Thank you very much for a great explanation! It's been a LONG time since last I sewed anything. Making masks to protect against the corona virus. Everyone please stay safe out there!
I had been searching for a while as to why bobbin housing had been coming out... You explained it... The answer was to have the bobbin thread looped around the needle thread... Such a simple thing... So thank you a million... I'm sewing again...
Thank you for this video! I got out my 5050C for the first time in 20 years (!!!) and realized I'd completely forgotten how it worked. Bless the internet. 👍💕
I watched other videos that helped. 2 good things with this video were the instructions were clear and the camera was steady. I’m 70 years old and just getting started and I could use closer camera shots. Thanks. I picked up a lot.
I couldn’t quite get it right because some how my machine was getting caught up, but this video helped me understand how this machine works. Thank you!!
After buying a brand new Singer at a garage sale for $40 (!), I can't wait to get started, but forgot how after not sewing for almost 50 years!!! Great video, THANKS!
I saw several videos before I bumped into yours. I am so glad I bumped into yours. 1/3 into your video and I solved my problem. Thank you so much you are an angel. You get a thumbs-up and of course I subscribed.
Thank you for teaching me how to sew using my singer sewing machine. Purchased it for my wife and she refused to use it, that was 20 years ago. I decided to try the machine two days ago and ended up with a messssss. Thank you for teaching me how to thread and use the sewing machine, which was exactly like your machine in this video.
Thank you so much for this video,i have been finding it difficult to use the machine to sew,not knowing i didn't thread right. You needed to see how i was jumping for joy after getting it right following this video. Thanks a bunch.
Thank you so much I know that this machine and did not know how to start it or set it up thank you for helping me out I just have to figure out how to thread the bobbin at the bottom
My mom would always sew, she passed away in 2016 and I found her sewing machine I never got around to asking her how to sew, I am trying to make a mask due to covid 19. I'm 24 trying to learn how to sew and you helped me!
Thank you.. I struggled with my Singer CM17C. The illustrations in the manual was not as clear as in your video. After watching a following your video, my first project was successful in one take. I thank God for you and CZcams. Good Day and God Bless
Thank you for being so precise and helpful. I and glad I found your page and will continue to reference it as I teach myself about my machine. Very helpful! Thanks 😊
I cannot thank you enough. For a man the Singer HD 110c instruction manual is frustrating and useless. I am a machinist and fabricator but this machine had me beaten. Kind regards, Al
Thank you very much . You explained wonderfully. I purchased this machine for 29$ from Goodwill to sew masks . There was no manual even I couldn’t found the model on the machine . ???. Please do more videos . Thank you .
Awww you’re the best!! 🥰🥰🥰 Thank you for helping me overcome the fear on how to start using my Singer sawing machine ...lol 😅 I’ve tried so many time before and always ended up frustrated but I just followed your steps and its working perfectly fine!!! Also I now know that I need a spool pin cap! 👍😊😊😊 Thank you!! 🥳🥳🥳
ive tried a milion times too. well 3 days now; still trying if trying not to have a nervous breakdown as u know it is frustrating LOL Sweating bullets here. lol
Thank you. Haven't used my machine for awhile, could not get the tension to go correctly. Always too loose. When I finally wrapped around the metal bobbin thingy. FIXED!
Hi Stephanie your explanation is really well done. Yes close up would be more helpful. I was just wondering if you have a full tutoring of this sewing machine. This machine has a lot of functions but unfortunately I don't know how to operate it :( I would really appreciate your help :)
Thanks for trying to do a teaching video. But without clear pictures and closeups of every part of the machine where the thread goes - action shots, close up - I didn't get the information I needed.
THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS. I got one as a hami-down from an older friend's mother-in-law. So its super old lol. And instruction books are not very good or clear as a video.
I must be an idiot. At 7:05, where you are describing a looped thread coming up through the needle plate, my model cannot produce this loop. It loops around the black bottom but then never comes up through the hole where the needle is located. In short. I'm very frustrated. Please help me.
this video is really thorough and gentle, but there are also high resolution versions of this same procedure here on youtube that let you see everything super clearly that you might want to watch too. (I know you asked this question 2 years ago, but you're surely not alone)
Thank you for the tutorial! Very straightforward and clear! I have a question. I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to put the threading hook back on above the needle clamp. Do you have a picture of that area so that I can reassemble mine?
Stephanie what model # is that machine? I just picked one up off of Facebook Market place for real cheap and it is in excellent shape. Trying to find a manual for that machine. Oh by the way, your video helped me get started with this machine!!!
I don't loop the thread guide when I'm threading. I go underneath it from the right and side and bring it up from the left side and slide the thread into the slit it has and down to the tensioner. If I loop it in the thread guide it causes more tension.
I am really glad I found this! I believe we have the same machine or very close model at home. Does this one have an overlock stitch? I mean, the false one, not real overlock, that's whole different machine, I know 😅 we are now arguing over it and I can't find any manual 😂
Hi .i have a machine similar to this one. I get problem with the upper tread gving a bird's nest result and sometimes breaking. can't figure iut where exactly is the problem. Im starting to think maybe my machine is broken 😅
This guide is for noobs right...I'd think we would be the only ones needing this. If you do not zoom on your individual movements and steps then how can one learn?
I’ve been looking all day for the bobbin tension thread piece that sits right on top of the machine. eBay doesn’t have it, singer parts online doesn’t have it. Any suggestions where this piece can be found. Machine is basically useless without it. Thanks
It's been a long time since I used the fabric press to sew zippers and I don't remember how to put it on, I've already tried several times and it doesn't hold. Could you help me please? Thank you.
It seems that we have the same machine. My stitches are completely of wack I can’t even make them longer. I’m wondering if I have moved the stitch balance control near the hand wheel. What should that be on? Many thanks
This has been a life saver! I'm not much of a sewer, but now that I'm retired I'd like to try some projects. I've had this machine for years and I honestly thought I was going to have to purchase a new machine. Thanks Stephanie!

I swear one of my bosses gave me one which I brought to my country Uganda but without a Manu. Just doing guess work with it🤣🤣🤭
I am in the same boat!
@@nikkiknight6936 Hahahaha 🤣🤣.This video was meant for you and me.
Sameeeee 😂😂
Super helpful. Very excited to start sewing again.

Thank you soooooo much !!! 😂
Why is my singer not picking it's threaç
Thank you!!!
I am so happy you uploaded this!
I am a newbie, just got an old-school Singer 290, and it has the same system, and thanks to you, I was able to thread the bottom thread!! Thank you!

Thank you so much for this! I got an ancient machine from Facebook Marketplace for $20 and this video helped so much!
Alyse I agree!! It was a great learning video. I hope she posts more videos in the future. I would like to hem a few dresses. Thanks!!
During threading at 2:17 you reference the ‘thread tension disk’....this is not used for threading the machine and only used for winding the bobbin.
This was by far the EASIEST example possible thank you very very much
Thank you.. I struggled with my Singer CM17C. The illustrations in the manual was not as clear as in your video. After watching a following your video, my first project was successful in one take. I thank God for you and CZcams. Good Day and God Bless
Best video for threading my machine! Thank you!
oh my gosh, my moms friend gave me this exact version, and this was a god send to me!!! thank you!
Thank you! I thought I had an issue with my machine but really I'm just threading it wrong! Thanks for this explaination!
Hello Stephany, Many thanks for your video! Now I'm able to use my sewing machine :)
i was gifted a singer recently, this video is so helpful! thank you! ❤
Thank you for being so precise and helpful. I and glad I found your page and will continue to reference it as I teach myself about my machine. Very helpful! Thanks 😊
Bless you! I don't have a manual, and couldn't follow blurry images on line. You saved me!
❤ Best video, great help to me, 1st time using my mum sewing machine
I cannot thank you enough. For a man the Singer HD 110c instruction manual is frustrating and useless. I am a machinist and fabricator but this machine had me beaten. Kind regards, Al
Thank you! You saved Halloween.
Glad I could help! What was the costume of choice?
Praise god for the LEFT OVERs! Thank you! Haha.
I was doing it the other way and could NOT figure it out. Thank you 🎉
Thank you very much . You explained wonderfully. I purchased this machine for 29$ from Goodwill to sew masks . There was no manual even I couldn’t found the model on the machine . ???. Please do more videos . Thank you .

Lady.... I'm in love with you. PERIOD!!!!!!! More videos please!!!
Thank you so much... You just saved me
I have the same machine from 1995. I think I’ve been threading it wrong ever since but it still sews.
Thanks so glad to find info on this machine !
Thank you so much. Love you❤
Thank you, this is helpful.
Thank you!!
Very clear.
I could not figure it out from the booklet.
Wow!! Thank you!!! 100% helpful for beginners!
Thanks for the detailed explanation
I just noticed that my machine is missing the presser foot
Got a bit lost when you were threading the needle itself cause there was no commentary while you were doing it 😭
Hi Stephanie your explanation is really well done. Yes close up would be more helpful. I was just wondering if you have a full tutoring of this sewing machine. This machine has a lot of functions but unfortunately I don't know how to operate it :(

No, sorry I no longer have these machines in my classroom :(
That was helpful thanks a lot 😊
Would you show me how to clean and oil the same type singer sewing machine.
Omg thank you so much! This video is a life saver 🙏
Thanks for trying to do a teaching video. But without clear pictures and closeups of every part of the machine where the thread goes - action shots, close up - I didn't get the information I needed.
Do not wrap the thread around the little round tensioner. That's for bobbin winding only! She taught this wrong.
@@WhosWhointheZoo123 thank you!
I wrapped the thread around my tension bob and the tension dramatically improved. I was gifted this machine and it did not come with a manual. 11:01
This video is very helpful. But please can I use it for commercial purpose
The tension disc on top is for winding the bobbin thread
I have this sewing machine. I can remember how to thread it but i couldn't remember how to put in the bobbin in it. Thank you
THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS. I got one as a hami-down from an older friend's mother-in-law. So its super old lol. And instruction books are not very good or clear as a video.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much 😊
I am soooo happy to finding this video
It is the same machine as me
And the English is not my first language but I understand her words😭😭😭💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
تبارك الله. 🎉 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤حبيبتي

I cannot loop left either but I can loop right
czcams.com/video/rnTwT-ifLkU/video.html
This video was great! Thank you! I was curious if you have ever had the thread continue to come out of the threading? Do I change the tension setting?
Thank you so much, you saved me!!!!!
watching as a beginner. close up would be helpful, can't see anything????
czcams.com/video/A_8XXYJNrik/video.html
theresa logan I agree. I can’t see a thing.
this video is really thorough and gentle, but there are also high resolution versions of this same procedure here on youtube that let you see everything super clearly that you might want to watch too. (I know you asked this question 2 years ago, but you're surely not alone)
Thank you for the tutorial! Very straightforward and clear! I have a question. I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to put the threading hook back on above the needle clamp. Do you have a picture of that area so that I can reassemble mine?
You can download the instruction manual online if that helps.
I wish I did! I don't have these machines in my new classroom :(
You're the best!
Super helpful! Thank you
Stephanie what model # is that machine? I just picked one up off of Facebook Market place for real cheap and it is in excellent shape. Trying to find a manual for that machine. Oh by the way, your video helped me get started with this machine!!!
I'm sorry I don't have access to these machine anymore! Wish I remembered the model number for you!
Lol I know this is old question but I have machine that is almost exact and it’s Singer 2517c
You didn't explain after the loop what to do...? at the 5:46 mark.
Does the bobbin need a case ? Sorry I’m a beginner and I got this sewing machine from someone and there’s no case for the bobbin
I think yes . I also got my machine in a yard sale
Awesome! so easy to understand.
I don't loop the thread guide when I'm threading. I go underneath it from the right and side and bring it up from the left side and slide the thread into the slit it has and down to the tensioner. If I loop it in the thread guide it causes more tension.
As long as it works for you :)
You aren't supposed to thread the bobbin tension disc for sewing. You only thread that disc when winding up a bobbin.
THANK YOU!
I have this machine. How do i know to get the correct presser feet? Is it standard presser feet, or low shank presser feet?
I am really glad I found this! I believe we have the same machine or very close model at home. Does this one have an overlock stitch? I mean, the false one, not real overlock, that's whole different machine, I know 😅 we are now arguing over it and I can't find any manual 😂
I'm sorry I don't remember, I no longer have access to these machines in my new school.
Hi .i have a machine similar to this one. I get problem with the upper tread gving a bird's nest result and sometimes breaking. can't figure iut where exactly is the problem. Im starting to think maybe my machine is broken 😅
What model # is that sewing machine I inherited one I believe may be identical but not sure?
Rounded bobbin? There’s my problem! I’ve a flat one.....oh no. Not the same looking machine.
Thanks!
This guide is for noobs right...I'd think we would be the only ones needing this. If you do not zoom on your individual movements and steps then how can one learn?

i wonder what is the model of this singer sewing machine

The plug on mine keeps wiggling loose (every couple of minutes.) Any clue on that?
Thank you! 💝🌹👌🙏
The guide, I always amused that was used for bobbin threading.. I use the guide not the circular part
It seems that we have the same machine. My stitches are completely of wack I can’t even make them longer. I’m wondering if I have moved the stitch balance control near the hand wheel. What should that be on? Many thanks
Feed dog is not moving the fabric...its stuck on one spot
Oh my god I have been putting the bobbin in wrong for 20 years.
Can you help me to find the small first thread guide. I have the same machine
