Thnk you I treid a number of times and this got me going , not quitting my day job to sew but fixed the items I needed for way less than taking to a seamstress
Thank you so much for making these videos! I bought new sewing machines for three of my granddaughters for Christmas and needed a reminder for how to use them so I can teach the girls!💜
Best one I've seen for the threading. Thank you so much! I used to thread my grandmother's as a child and haven't done since, so I really appreciate it and you made it easy for me to see what you were doing!
Hallelujah you are a God sent. The other video was great but I got stuck a few times and then you created the close up video. Now I realize it was user error 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Thank you Excellent job ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Your videos have been SOOO helpful! Saturday I watched and learned/practiced. By Sunday I had completed a beautiful runner and 4 placemats for my table! Thank you so much! I used a mesh see through fabric with beautiful flowers and vines over a sage fabric, it came out so nice. I can't wait to make more
Thank you! I don't know Jack about sewing but I'm trying to learn So I can fix my work pants that I'm always ripping up. I still seem to be struggling with the bottom thread though. Do you have one of these videos? That's a close-up of doing the bottom and getting the bottom to pull up with the top?
Lol, EVERYTHING😂 It really depends on what kind of things you want to see. I mostly do quilts, so a cutting mat, rotary cutter and lots of different rulers would be top of my list. I really use the cone thread holder a lot.
Thanks for BOTH of your videos, they are very helpful. However, I have one question: In the first video you say the thread should feed off the back of the spool but here you are feeding it over in the front of the spool ... I'm guessing both ways will work but to be sure, will one way work better than the other? Thank you!

Well. You cannot drop the feed dogs on this machine, you have to use a cover. I have not tried it with a free motion foot, but I’m guessing it would not be ideal.
@@momdoesstuff thank you for your very quick response. I’m new to sewing. The feed dogs are under the plastic cover? Could you possibly do a quick video? I’m mainly using the machine for art and I know there are thousands of people who use sewing machines for art not making garments. Untapped audience would love to know creative ways to use the simple little machines. Thank you!!!
For someone new to sewing this is frustrating. The instruction booklet shows that you’re supposed to run the thread from the top right to the part on the top left and then down the left side of the machine. Your instructions go from the top right down to the side.
after I purchased my sewing machine I felt like a total failure. I thought it can't be that difficult and I know that I have the brains to do it, but I could not get this thing figured out. Thank you so much for these detailed videos, they are great. One suggestion, maybe pause after certain directions. Like I had a hard time after 3, but I finally got it. It would have been easier if I didn't have to rewind so much. Anyway, thank you, you're awesome
Thank you for the good, close-up visuals and very thorough explanations.
You’re very welcome! Thanks for watching ☺️

Good job! I’m not quitting my day job either, 😂but it is nice not to have to depend on someone else to sew

You are so welcome! And, yes this machine works just as well either way. Thanks for watching!
@@momdoesstuff Thanks for the quick reply and info! 😃

Thank you for the detailed instructions. Do you know if this little brother machine will do free motion sewing?
Well. You cannot drop the feed dogs on this machine, you have to use a cover. I have not tried it with a free motion foot, but I’m guessing it would not be ideal.

Have you ever used the overclock pressure foot with the side cutter ..I see universal brands and was wondering if they work
I have not tried those 😕 but, it’s a great idea! I’ll see if have one and give it a whirl lol
Awesome
My lever to self thread the needle will come down but not backward to self thread my needle! Help!!!

I'm so sorry you're having trouble! Have you gotten it worked out yet?
@@momdoesstuff Hello and thanks for the reply. I did eventually figure out that the instructions were for first spooling a bobbin.
@@momdoesstuff Now if I can just figure out how best to sew a long straight line. 😅
Mrs Ljndsey I need help! I don't have any other way of contacting you except here. Can you call me? Or email me?
