    UA-cam suggested your channel to me. I'm truly glad. Nice work, and I like your sense of humor. Very interesting stuff. I have been watching videos on how to use a sewing machine. Every single one has been so full of jargon, I had no idea what they were talking about. I want, very badly, to know how to use a sewing machine and, perhaps, more importantly, how it works. I does me no good to know how to use something, if I don't know what it is supposed to be doing. In other words, how to deal with problems and make corrections and adjustments.
    Sorry for the rant. New sub here. Cheers!

      Hello Jaf, Welcome aboard! Thank you for the sub. I always say it is not rocket science. My best advice I have for you is, that if you already have a sewing machine, just to start sewing. Experience is the best teacher. Learning is doing! Just go for it. you don't need a reason to get started. At least that is how I did it 44 years ago. I think you can do it.
