Big thanks to John Moore on piano, and Jim Viau on harp! Back story - Jim used to jam with the original owner of this piano 40 years ago.

Quarter inch foot tip
Переглядів 2054 місяці тому
Getting used to your 1/4" foot can be easy if you do a lot of paper piecing Quiltworx patterns. They provide a seam allowance line - so you can see exactly where your 1/4" falls on each particular foot! Then when you need to piece something without paper - with an exact 1/4" seam - you'll be confident with your machine's 1/4" foot.

    Where can I find a bobbin?

    • @TheMasquerade
      @TheMasquerade Місяць тому

      I find many of my parts on Ebay, or by doing a search on Google. There are small differences in the bobbin shuttle with each model machine. If you try to use the wrong one it won't work. So make sure you do your search with the correct make, model and year of your machine! If your machine is a Singer, you can find the correct make/model/yr of your machine by looking at the serial number chart on ismacs.net/singer_sewing_machine_company/serial-numbers/singer-sewing-machine-serial-number-database.html Good luck!

    • @TheMasquerade
      @TheMasquerade 2 місяці тому

      Sorry. You're not the only one who thinks so. At least 100 other people have said so over the last 8 years. I can't do anything about that on my end now that it's already uploaded. So my only suggestion is turn down your volume. You don't have to listen to anything I may have said after the music begins - if I even said anything at all - because the steps are all repeated over and over and over and over again. As a matter of fact, I think I stopped talking. That's why I filled the dead air with music.

    You described this better than any I've seen. I still can't get the bobbin to seat. It simply won't fit. Are there different types? I bought and antique shuttle for a 27 vs2. Which is what I believe my machine is. Do I need to do something to the machine part that holds the bobbin? I would love some help if you can

    • @TheMasquerade
      @TheMasquerade 2 місяці тому

      The year and the model all make a difference- as they changed up the shuttle and bobbin over the first few years. There are different length bobbins that have to have the exact shuttle - or it won't fit. If your shuttle is a different year than the machine, it might be too long and not fit either. Look up your serial number on ismacs.net/singer_sewing_machine_company/serial-numbers/singer-sewing-machine-serial-number-database.html
