I got this machine about 3 years ago and it’s been unopened since. I have today pulled it out and hope to start sewing soon. Thank you for this video it’s now saved so I can come back and view it when I set my machine up
WHAT A GREAT TEACHER. WOW. Thank you much for your efforts in making this tutorial! I have ADHD and you had me easily paying attention without bore. GREAT teacher. Bravo.

Thank you, everything is well explained, but I guess I am doing something wrong because the top thread is getting out of the needle, any suggestion? Thanks.
My grandmother’s mind is that what it used to be, so I’m glad that you made this video so that i can use her machine to carry on her legacy of amazing sewing
Aw, Amanda! We're delighted to be a part of your journey in carrying on your grandmother's legacy. It's a beautiful way to connect with her through the art of sewing. Happy sewing and keep up the good work! 🧵✨ -SR
I've been intimidated by sewing for my entire life. Rebuilding car engines, building with wood, landscaping, construction, sure, fine. Bought this machine a few years ago so my wife could teach me how to sew, and somehow, it always ended up driving me mad. She'd go up and finish the project for me. TURN THE WHEEL TOWARD YOU. You say it at least 4 times, and to an experienced operator like my wife, it's obvious and intuitive and she simply forgot to mention it to me. Last project I abandoned was travel pouches for my 7 fountain pens. And now they're on my desk, done, being filled with beautiful fountain pens. Thank you sew much!
I got my Singer Start 1306 machine today.. And this is my first time sewing using an electric machine.. Thanks a lot for your tutorial.. Lots of Love..❤️
Thank you thank you thank you. I've never sewn before and I bought a singer sewing machine and was quite frustrated at the instructions on how to get it set up. I came across your video which is excellent. Very calm step by step and I was up and sewing before I knew it. I'm very grateful for your video. Looking forward to more of your videos.
We're so glad you found out video useful, Bob! Welcome to the SINGER sewing community! We can't wait to see what you'll create on your new machine. ❤️ - AC
Excellent introduction to this machine, which will be so helpful to anyone new to machine sewing. Very thorough, clear enough for a beginner, and easy to understand. A good reference to view and to periodically review. Thank you.
I am very new to sewing period! lol Decided it was time to pursue a new hobby and bought this sewing machine on Amazon. I have to say I am very happy to come across this video in getting started. Are there any videos on what newbies should buy as in supplies? I have absolutely no clue where to start and I would like to practice by fixing the bottom of my pants and a few shirts that have lost the thread. Super excited to start experimenting! :D
This helped me a lot as I just bought my machine. I used to have a manual machine before so this is where I learned the basic thing before start sewing ❤❤❤
Thanks for a great video. I wanted a basic machine to replace my old one that broke. Video was informative. Found I didnt have the machine threaded right was going to return it and than watched this video and it works great.
Thank you for this video, it is very helpful, after many years of wanting a sewing machine but afraid to do the threading, now I finally know how to do it!!
New to sewing, so I purchased the starter model 1304. The instructions were not much help ex. to find the take up lever among many other threading and useful features. After watching twice I was on my way, even sewed a button hole. Just Great! Thanks for the video...
Thank you soo much dear i bought my new machine n dont know how to use it but man you help me alot now I can finally start sewing 🥰 appreciated you so much 🙏🙏
Your video is 1 billion percent helpful I haven't touched a sewing machine since I was in like junior high or high school which is 1970 and I bought one today to have something to do while I'm waiting on Covert to and and it is harder than what I remember but because of your video it is way better than what I could have done on my own so thank you so much new subscriber thumbs-up and I'm ringing the bell
got a sewing machine for Christmas, I've been intimidated by it but its September now so I had to face it and set it up. Thank you for this video, made it very easy with step by step process. I need A LOT of practice though clearly
You did a really awesome job on your presentation I'm really impressed very clean clear concise anybody who gets lost in this did not pay attention one bit very nice we are going to purchase one like this one
I'm running two different colored threads on top and another color on the bottom and I love the way the bobbin is set up facing toward the user I know some of them face the other way and it's just as good but I like that bobbin other than the 99.. the only thing I would rather have is a vibrating shuttle but I have a machine with that that's 1900s technology but it works good
It's really easy to use I got one although I already know how to sew I love it it's broke in now and I hold it for the first time and it's much smoother
You are awesome, for some reason my wife purchased the 1306 for me, a burly builder myself so now I'm looking at how to use the machine and what I can make with it, personally, I think it's because she wants me to make new curtains for the house, 🤔🤔
hey! i recently bought a sewing machine and i followed this tutorial and was all good until i cut the thread to sew another part of the fabric, the start of the stitch is really loose, what advise could you give me?
I’m having problems keeping a stitch, I have re-threaded the machine x5, walked away a lot , put different thread in, started from the beginning again x4. Is there anything I am missing?

How about a trouble shooting video for this machine ? I recently had a bobbin issue and after I would sew something, I couldn’t pull it out enough to cut it. Also I bought the same thread ( so I thought ) and not sure it was thicker or what but my machine wouldn’t sew it. I had to adjust the bobbin tension but then ended up using a different thread all together.

Hello. I'm a male viewer new to sewing machines. I have some settee cushion seats I'm looking to make, for a settee I've recently made. Can you tell me is there much difference between the Singer 1304 to the 1306 which I'm about to buy? This video was super informative. I'm now looking forward to having a go at this Thank you for sharing.
You can find all of Singer’s current sewing machines here:www.singer.com/machines. You can find specifications for each machine under the product listing.
I.ve been using the machine for half a year now with no trouble. I decided to clean the area of the feed dog and so I had to remove the metal plate that covers that area to remove the lint that had collected. I oiled the machine light once I had brushed away all the lint. My trouble began when I screwed everything back. I must have broken ten needles thereafter. I made sure that the needle was where it should be. I made a few good lines of stitching then the needle snags and breaks. How do I correct the needle alignment? Where have I gone wrong?
Hi Merlie! I would suggest looking into getting your machine serviced. You can find out more information about that here: www.singer.com/support/warranty. Thank you! -TB
I'm following all the instructions on this wonderful tutorial at the threading the bobbin. When I start to wind the bobbin for just a little bit to get the thread going on the bobbin, with the thread tail up and cut the thread as demonstrated, my thread drops out, therefore I can't continue to wind the thread? What's is happening and what do I do? Thank you.

Hi. Bought this machine for my 8yo granddaughter. Simple to use, but foot pedal is very hard to control. Goes from 0 to top speed with little in between. Any suggestions on how to slow the speed down?
Excellent video. I’m struggling to sew pleats on a mask. Can’t work out how to accommodate thicker material (pleats) although instruction manual seems to say that it is possible with higher lever level?
Hi Alison! Thank you for the feedback. Please look at the following link for a troubleshooting video on thicker fabric: ua-cam.com/video/O7N4XaIV6ms/v-deo.html Thank you! -TB
