So happy & thankful I found this! My Mom was a wonderful seamstress. Last Mother's Day, she suddenly died of a massive heart attack. She lived a few hours away from me, and when my old machine began having issues, she gave me her machine, but the only problem was that the embroidery part stopped working, just the sewing machine part works. She gave it to me in the Fall of 2019, and was waiting for the chance to come down and teach me how to use it all. Then covid happened. So we were waiting patiently until it was safe to get together, we had planned for June of 2020. All of a sudden my Mom was gone. I miss her so terribly much, never thought I could learn how to use this machine. Today I found this video and am so very thankful that I have a place to learn how to use Mom's machine. Thanks so much for posting this!!
The same thing happened to my mom! Devastating!
I'm so sorry for the loss of your mom. I lost mine the day after Christmas in 2023. I still can't believe she's gone.
I hope that your mom's machine provides you sweet memories of your mother, and that you can make memories for the special people in your life on the machine for many years to come.❤
😊😊
I am so grateful to discover this instruction since I've not been able to use my Designer 1 for three years and cannot believe how much I forgot! The blessing is your video teaching me even more than I previously knew about my Designer 1. Thank you.
So glad I found this, can’t play the vhs tape that came w machine anymore. Lifesaver I just hope to get the motivation to use it as it is not worth selling compared to what I paid for it many years ago. Now I am retired but lack energy. No family living in same country. At least I have my husband and 2 dogs - when I bought it I thought I’d have many grandkids but didn’t happen yet. Hope springs eternal- such a beautiful machine.
Bet there is a hospital with baby & pediatric units that could really use your grandmotherly productions😊
I have had my Designer I for years, but haven't been able to use for about 16 years, due to circumstances beyond my control. Now I'm trying to learn how to use again. This was a really big help. But I still didn't learn the main thing I wanted to know right now. Otherwise, it was great.
Thanks for yr note, as I’m in similar situation. Bt the D1 when 1st out & then life situations interfered with time to sew. Now living in beautiful MT, where it’s Bernini or Brother & only quilting vs previously doing heirloom, & no store using Vikings. Feel like I’ve forgotten how to sew!
Curious what yr ‘main thing’ was.
Thank you, I have this machine for a long time, in between i did not have time to sew and i forgot how it embroidery, after watching this i am ready to embroidery again
You’re welcome and if you ever need embroidery disks for the Designer 1 this is a great place to find them :

Warning. Don't pull the thread under a clear foot when winding a new bobbin from the needle. It will score the foot, making it weaker and prone to breaking.
This is so helpful. I just bought a Viking Designer 1 from an estate sale. I already have a Designer 2, but have been wanting to embroider. This is a great tutorial!
I hope if your machine ever needs repairs you can get them! I’ve been just told mine is totally obsolete & no parts or programs are available any more! Talk about a let down! I have over 4 thousand patterns on Floppy’s & can’t use them any more because the machine can’t be fixed! Plus I have all kinds of attachments !
Cats&Company Oh, no!! I was just trying to figure out what I needed to do to update mine & get it fixed. I haven’t used mine much in several years so I have no idea what is available these days.
It was such a big investment to just become obsolete! 😞
Gina Land Join the Viking Designer 1 group on Facebook. It’s a great community of users and a wealth of great information. I’m loving my machine and use it every week.
love love this machine two in one like way it sounds also.
@@catscompany735 so do I and mine just blew up on me. Help all the thing I have extras $$$$$$$$$$$$
I love this machine. I have 4 of them. This machine outsews a Brother or Babylock! It is so user friendly
I have an opportunity to buy one of these for $400. Would you say it's worth it?
@@jasonbennett640 yes! Am looking in Husqvarnas myself
Thank you, I've had my machine for almost 2 years but have mainly used it for quilting. Your video was very informative and I look forward to seeing more.
You’re welcome, if you ever need embroidery designs for your Designer 1, we have a great selection in our Etsy store : jestexcorner
@@VintageEmbroidery I *just* bought my designer I from an estate sale. How do you adjust the tension?
@@VintageEmbroideryi just obtained one of these beauties, it didnot have any disk in the drive, nor did it have the embroidery unit? Where can i get one? I have all the original books thank you in advance!
I love this tutorial, I have just bought one on eBay last night, and look forward to using this machine. Thank you so much for posting this video.
did the disks come with yours? When I got mine no disk...How can I get one?
@@DanceworksSD Got some on Amazon
Shay D. Davis ebay sells some discs. I have been collecting a few discs before they disappear. I think a US sight has the original 4 disc set that came with the machine
@Vintage Embroidery thank You so much for this video. I used it as reference since I cannot find if my Designer SE came with one (second hand) and it’s been difficult to find ANY useful information or tutorials on the Designer SE.
Hi I've got the 4020 machine sewing so well ow my gosh just looking bobbins case
Thank you so much, I just got this machine from a friend and this video has been most helpful. thanks again
Can you add more stitches or designs for this machine?
Price please
The video magnifice
I bought a second hand one a couple of years ago. It takes a stick instead of a disc. The machine has no built in embroidery patterns and no alphabet. How can I get some embroidery designs please
This is the most thorough tutorial I’ve ever seen, for anything.
You can buy usb sticks with the patterns on ebay, they have a lot to choose from.
You can download free designs and there are TONS of sites that sell designs. Once you buy the design you can easily convert it to your Designer 1 format. But you must have software. I understand the Husqvarna website offers a free version on the Primeir 2 software which will allow you some basic functions including downloading.
@@maryace818 Thankyou 🌹
@@ronnieswraps1465 Thankyou so much 🌷
You can get the software to transfer designs to a USB stick at our Etsy store :

Thank you so much ..I have dvd....but so much easier on my iPad ..
This has been so helpful
I really liked your video and learned a lot and will be able to use my machine again. Thank you for making all of these older machine how toos.
How do you setup this machine for free motion quilting using the Q foot?
Saludos, Traduzcan este video al Español, por favor.
Muchas Gracias de Antemano.
I like this machine...
Hi. is it possible to programme your own designs to the floppy disks and have them run? I wouldnt be sure what format they would be in.
Yes is possible to create your own Designer 1 floppy disk but you will need the Husqvarna Viking Customizing software or the Professional embroidery software. Those programs convert the designs to Designer 1 Format SHV and create the special menu system.
We also offer that service in our shop in case you are interested

@@VintageEmbroidery can you by chance tell me how to reset the embroidery arm for my Designer 1 so I can put it back in the original case? I knew how to do it forever and now I don’t. LOL Thank you so much for any help.
@@jerridyke8706 you probably know by now but if not, touch the needle up and down button with the embroidery unit attached.
Bonjour j'ai ma Designer depuis un moment j'ai eu problème de boite électronique que j'ai du payer 473€ qui a dure mon de 2 ans et la maintenant la machine clignote qui s'allume mais rien ne bouge la central de broderie ne fonctionne pas j'aime beaucoup cette machine mais malheureusement de tel appareil super perfectionner et qu'on ne peut pas trouvé les pièces pour la réparer c'est triste
merci.merci.merci!!!!!!
Mi maquina tiene 15 años me pueden recordar cómo funciona la bordadora Husqvarna Viking en español por favor
I inherited this machine from a friend. What a workhorse. Question though, if I am embroidering on denim do I use a denim needle or the normal 80 needle the help advisor suggests?
Just happened to get information on this machine and saw your question although it's many months later hopefully you got an answer if not here is my advice depending on the thickness of the material you go with a stronger needle the eyes will be larger also. Finer fabric uses smaller needles. 👌🏼
Where can I find a tutorial for mach . embroidered quilt label with my Husqvarna viking diamond . thanks Lynn
Mary Beth what is so much easier on iPad ? Transfer?
O meu Deus, meu sonho de consumo!!!

Where did you buy your sewing machine epic 2
Tengo una Vikings Designer 1, qué no me funciona correctamente la he llevado varias veces ha reparar y me la devuelven cada vez peor dicen que no hay piezas de recambio lo mismo me pasa con la remalladora 906 se rompió la pata principal y no hay pata de recambio estoy triste, me vendieron otras marcas, pero nada que ver con las Husqvarna alguna solución ?
Desafortunadamente el fabricante ya no produce partes para estas maquinas y es dificil su reparacion
@@VintageEmbroidery podrías mandarme información sobre las nuevas maquinas de husqvarna y precios gracias en español
Can you tell me, what store you bought it
merci merci j'aimerais savoir pourquoi des fois elle dit que mes disquette fichier non reconnut
Designer 1 exige que le disque contienne les fichiers au format SHV, si les fichiers ne sont pas au format SHV, votre Designer 1 ne reconnaîtra pas le disque .. Nous avons des disques pour le Designer 1 dans notre boutique Etsy: Jestexcorner
How do I calibrate touch screen?
how many of you have had you husqvarna designer 1 blow up on you with smoke pouring out it and the very bad smell of burning with it then what do you do hundreds of dollars to get them fixed
Es wäre schön, wenn diese Maschinen in der Türkei aber keinen Verkauf
Does this machine have built in embroidery designs or does it need software. I have floppy disks with mine, do the floppy disks carry additional designs? Thank you.
I bought mine used; there are no designs in the machine; however, I just saw a video explaining that Husqvarna has free Primeir 2 software that allows you to work with the floppy disks. I have a 3.25 disk drive and it works fine but you need the software.
@@ronnieswraps1465 Does it come with any fonts to embroider names etc in the machine? I can’t find any disks for sale that have fonts on them.
I inherited mine. I however not have the USB with the designs used. Can you recommend me where to get those? Viking itself isn't very helpful.
Or can you help me how to put custom designs (I love Urban Threads) on a usb?
Mine has USB port
At our Etsy store you can find the CD with the software to transfer designs to a USB thumb drive -

I too just got one of these machines from a friend. Having fun learning how to use it. But there is so much information I just don't understand. I really want to try embroidery. If anyone has other videos to share please let me know. Thanks.

Hahaha, I've been sewing on this machine for 20 years and now I find out it has a threader, Hahaha.
How much prize this one?
Just saw one for $305. Don't remember the website. Just type it in google.
Anyone in the UK who can help my machine has died and it is suspected to be the motherboard
My machine reverse button doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
I had this exact same problem about 8 years ago! You would not believe the problem I had getting that part! The store where I bought it was so obnoxious about it! They told me first that they had to order it from China! Then they said they had to ship to to the Husqvarna company! This was in a time length of 4 months! I called Husqvarna & my machine was never sent! It was never even looked at! The owners son wanted to sell me a new machine! Then I found a sewing shop that was a 2 hour drive from me & the repair man was the greatest! He had the part I needed & fixed it while I waited! Now he’s retired! I find out my Designer 1 is totally out dated & obsolete & no more parts are being made! If you can find someone who can fix it, the part is a small rubber rectangle in behind the bottoms where the reverse button is it’s just a little pad that helps the buttons to be pressed! I can no longer get mine fixed, no more programs for mine plus someone who did fix it pulled out the grounding wire, this was no accident, and now I can’t embroider with out fear of the machine catching fire! The last person who was supposed to just Service it made it worse, it won’t even sew now! That’s how bad these people want to sell the newest sewing machines! I don’t have $16,000.00 to buy a new one plus all new patterns! So do your research on repair shops! Good Luck! I’m switching to a Brother machine!!!
The machine is a discontinued model, parts are no longer made for this machine. Reverse/Fix button failure is common, sometimes older parts can be located, but this is a tough one to find.

Hey does anybody know when this sewing machine was released, and how much it cost I am thinking of buying one second hand?
My grandma has one and says it was about $7,000 originally. She doesn't remember how old it is though.
@@uncommonpurestbeauty thank you.
Mine was over $6,000
@@kathrynellsworth5864 I just read they came out in 1999. I'm not sure of the website, they are selling them for $305. I have one that is a real work horse.
@@ronnieswraps1465 just bought one used with several boxes of attachments for $450
Does this machine have Bluetooth capability ?
Unfortunately no- I think Bluetooth wasn’t around when this machine came out - it only supports floppy disks
Can you upload your own designs on it?
Yes is possible to create your own Designer 1 floppy disk but you will need the Husqvarna Viking Customizing software or the Professional embroidery software. Those programs convert the designs to Designer 1 Format SHV and create the special menu system.

Could you upload custom logos on to this?

J'ai ma designer 1 depuis 20 ans environ ! je l'utilise que pour mes hobbies ! il y a une année j'ai du changer l'unité de broderie auprès d'un réparateur de nice - ets VECCHI et j'ai du payer 500€ pour le remplacement de cette unité de broderie qui apparemment n'était pas neuve ! donc je ne m'en sers pas très souvent mais ce matin alors que je voulais broder d'autres tissus, l'unité broderie est TOMBEE EN PANNE A NOUVEAU et c'est un problème électonique je suppose !
oû trouver une autre unité et personne n'est capable de me dire si c'est l'unité seule qui a un problème ou est ce la machine et la connexion à l'unité brodeuse - le message suivant s'affiche et bloque la machine :"enlever cercle, dégager bras pour repositionner unité de broderie - je n'ai pas envie de repayer 500 euros d'unité de broderie pour une unité changé il y a une année
any idea how much this machine is worth?
Is a very Vintage machine but you can still find it at ebay for 200 to 1000 dollars
I want to know the price of this machine
I bought mine in 2001 and it was $6600au.
It was brilliant for its time. The embroidery stitch quality is excellent even today. Sadly the floppy disc technology was quickly superseded. I have bought on eBay some very good floppy discs so I have a good variety. Mine still embroiders beautifully after 20 years of work. The Candlewicking Floppy disc is brilliant.
Quanto costa
Can designs be added via USB?
Yes, but you have to upgrade your D1 with the USB adapter but if your looking for designs we have some at our Etsy store. Check it out!

Tienes el manual en espanol?
Muchas Gracias por su sugerencia. Ya estamos traduciéndolo a español y muy pronto estará disponible.
Please some one can tell the price
You can find them used in eBay from 300-1000 dollars
It’s very old technology. The machine can’t be updated and parts are hard to find.
