    • @KarenDelahuntySewing
      @KarenDelahuntySewing Місяць тому

      Thanks for the comments -the information about the bobbin case and thevbottom tension is mentioned - and also when you come wind thread onto a bobbin you can see that tension is needed to do this and is described in the video The machine will have been set as a normal tensions across all the tension areas. However if you have a look at another video we have done - it might help you a little It is for the Bernette B35 machine showing mainly free motion but we talk about tensions aswell - yet that machine is similar to the janome 423s for purposes of tensions and attaching the free motion foot so do take a look at that hope it helps. Here’s is the link if that helps. - tensions are discussed nearer the end of this video - it will help you when you want to do free motion sewing ua-cam.com/video/ufWUunO4dz8/v-deo.htmlsi=EBH3vQhZLUzD6hu8

      @Karendelahunty 4 місяці тому

      It’s a fairly robust machine - if you try using a thick needle size 100. Possibly jeans size 100 and long stitch length - try it out go slowly if motor struggles then you know you’ve pushed the machine to its limits and risk damaging motor x

    • @KarenGrieves

      Check the threading of your top thread. Change the needle. The bobbin might be in backwards

    • @KarenDelahuntySewing
      @KarenDelahuntySewing 5 місяців тому

      Is the bobbin placed in the correct way ? Also check needle is in inserted correctly with flat back of the headfirst needle towards the back of the needle housing unit and it’s up to the highest position possible - change to the correct size and type of needle for your project your doing - makes a big difference - check top tension is correct. Usually for most everyday threads used for making seams should be on the number 4 or auto depending on machine type

    • @katherinephillips8952
      @katherinephillips8952 7 місяців тому

      Please check with your dealer!!!! Oiling a machine is normal maintenance. You should oil parts that are easily accessible. As a sewist since 1987 and a quilter since 1990, I shuddered.

    • @loribaker8339
      @loribaker8339 6 місяців тому

      I was going to use WD-40 until a man told me that would collect more lint and dust eventually ruin the machine. Then I was also told 3 in 1 oil wasn't good either because it's too thick. That's why there's oil made just for machines!

    • @doralevitt2879
      @doralevitt2879 6 місяців тому

      Never use DW40 oil, you can ruin your machine, you only want "white machine oil"- but check your machine company or dealer 🤗

    • @ivettelasalle8302
      @ivettelasalle8302 4 місяці тому

      WD 40 is a penetrant. It’s meant to un stick stuff, not oil. On mechanical,domestic machines, use sewing machine oil not lubricant or grease. Moving metal parts get oil (regularly) and gears get greased(not often). Leave the gear greasing to the pros. Dust then oil your machine regularly!

    • @KarenDelahuntySewing
      @KarenDelahuntySewing 10 місяців тому

      Glad the video was helpful. As regards cutting the fabric it doesn’t matter if you you use rotary cutter or scissors just as long as the blades are sharp for better accuracy with any matching to be done I usually cut pattern pieces out on single layer of fabric pattern Face up and flip pattern pieces over when it says to cut 2 of fabric. This ensuring you get 1 x left hand and 1 x right hand pieces

    Hey from Germany! Thank you for this nice instruction. May I ask what setting you‘d suggest for sewing a jetsey material? I guess it’s an elastic stitch (so S.S. And maybe C). But at what pressure for the foot (1?), what stitch width, what thread tension? I‘m totally lost here bc either my upper thread is ripping or the jersey is tightening 😢
