How to machine-bind a baby quilt (or anything else quilted!)
Переглядів 898 місяців тому
This is my technique for machine-binding a baby quilt, or really any quilt or anything that needs a binding that even looks like a quilt (placemats, pot holders, table runners, etc.). This is easy, and saves a ton of time over hand-binding a quilt. It also creates a superior look, and makes the item last a whole lot longer, because machine stitching is always stronger than hand-stitching. Pleas...

How to create a box bottom on a bag or tote without a seam to guide you!
Переглядів 58Рік тому

      The oil is 60+ years old, and oil can break down/become sticky. So no, I'm not using that can of oil, but I'm keeping it with the machine.

    If the belt it too tight or too loose, how do you adjust them? I think my belt is too loose, it is downright floppy and wont turn the machine at all, but I don't see anything resembling a tensioner pulley or adjustment knob.

    • @patchworkchickenstudioarta5615
      @patchworkchickenstudioarta5615 5 місяців тому

      If it is too loose, you will need to shorten it. There is no adjustment for treadle belts like there is for motor belts. There are a lot of videos out there on how to attach belts, including how to shorten them. Basically, you need to take it off, remove the metal clip, cut off what is extra, put a new hole in the cut part, and attach the metal clip again. Do this in small increments, so you don't end up too short. Take off 1/2 inch at a time, if not less.

    I just bought my very first antique machine and it just so happened to be the 1908 sister to your dear Mary Margaret. I'm just wondering, due to being a complete newbie to these older machines and have only ever seen the shuttle bobbins on the older girls, how does one get the bobbin out of it's holder?? I've been futzing with it for a while and I feel like I'm missing something! Haha. As for the woman below who mentioned these lovely machines coming from NJ, mine was apparently made there as well. So there are a few out there from the States!

    • @patchworkchickenstudioarta5615
      @patchworkchickenstudioarta5615 Рік тому

      Hi Brittany. There is a little lever to lift the bobbin up so you can grab it. When you pull the slide plate to the side, in the front, there is a little round piece that has hash marks on it. push it down with your fingertip, and it lifts the back of the bobbin. I have pictures if you want to email me at patchworkchickenstudio@gmail.com

    Hi there :) I have also just become the proud owner of a Singer 66 named "Wendy" 😊 I have been playing with her and getting to know how she runs, however I am unsure how to pack her away? I didn't watch when they set her up so don't know if I have to disconnect the belt first or what to do? Would you mind terribly doing a video to demonstrate that as well as I'd really like to look after her well. Or even a step by step process as I can't find anything online ☺🙏🌼

      Yes, I can do that. You do need to disengage the belt, or it will break when you are trying to lower the machine. I'll try to get a video done for you tomorrow, and I'll comment with the link when I do. This is a GREAT question and definitely not something I have covered!
