  • Vintage Singer Sewing Machine 15-91. This is a video I made for Heather who bought this machine. At one point I mistakenly state that the bobbin should be loaded counter clockwise. The first time I show the loading of the bobbin in the case I correctly say it should be loaded clockwise. This is important. :)

    The bobbin should be loaded counterclockwise. You always load bobbins in the opposite direction of the slit on the bobbin case. That is what gives your bobbin the tension it needs.

    I bought a Singer sewing machine model 15-90, I know nothing about using it, I am happy I found your video on CZcams. I will refer to your videos for more informations. I have difficulty with threading the needle as the eye is too small, are needles with larger eyes available and where can I get them? They were unavailable at Walmart.

      Needles made for embroidery usually have larger eyes. You could also try a manual needle threader. I use one when threading my serger.

    I have a machine that i know nothing about the serial # JC760603 can you help. I would love to use it, but am confused. I have spent hours trying to find info and nothing.

      Is it a Singer and are you in the USA. I checked on Ismacs website which has a lot of information regarding vintage singers. I could not find a listing starting with serial number JC. If the number started with J only it would be a 28K from 1904. Here is a link to the manual for a 28k. www.singermachines.co.uk/sewingmachineparts/instruction-books/singer-28k-manual.html
      If that is not it I suggest you join the Facebook group for vintage singers. They have a lot of knowledgeable folks. I suggest you post a picture of your machine in that group. Here is a link to the Facebook group facebook.com/groups/292073434563220/?ref=share

    I’m totally new to this 1940s sewing machine.
    After watching the first few minutes of this, I don’t know whether to shoot myself or shoot you.
    “ this is how you do it, no way that’s wrong I think, this is how you do it, no way that’s not right either.
    You should not be making videos!
