    Thank you so much! I've had this same sewing machine for many years and never attempted to use it. I got the machine out. As I was looking on your website. And saw that you done sewing classes. So I googled how to set up your machine, and hobbie craft came up. I followed the instructions and now have started to sew. Thank you so much. So easy to do.

    Thank you! The only video I have found that really explains how to lift the thread from the bobbin 🙌🏻

    I have used a variety of machines over the years, everything from a treadle, it belonged to my grandma. A second hand hand powered machine, various electric models, ending with a computer job that did everything except make a cup of tea. And I hated it. So I went back to a no frills machine. It (he) sews straight seams beautifully, has three good zig zags, and I am one happy camper. Needless to say threading was a doddle, even though I have never used a top loading bobbin before. I haven't tried the buttonholer yet, the one on my New Home worked well, the Singer Brilliance was utter rubbish. But then I am one of those who learned how to sew a buttonhole by hand, which I love doing. My machine is the Brother AE1700 by the way, so slightly different to the one being demonstrated.

    Thank you very much. You are very helpful. I have had the exact machine for a while and today I am finally using it, but had no clue how to set it up. Thank you again.

    Thank you!
    Your video really helped me because I didn't understand how to get the thread in to the lever in Step 4-5 and when you said to turn the wheel so that the line was at the top, I did and the thread went in the lever instantly.

    Nice quiet voice. We'd have long conversations for sure! lol. I had a mini and dusted it off to fill needs for masks here, but timing stopped? wouldn't catch... got up before the birds sang this morning to get it fixed but lucked up and bought this baby! I thought there were no more brand new sewing machines left in the world.
    Looking to make this, along with my other strong interest, my Me-Time hobby and it would be great to meet others especially newbies like me who haven't sewn since jr. high home ec.( but this is like riding a bike plus I was a girl scout).
    So far, threading bobbins, this machine is quiet! Of course different from my mini " clacker" lol.

    You turned the balance wheel backwards? That's less than ideal. Turn it towards you, always.

    Hi thank you for a good instructions for sewing machine. But would you know if you can use a double needle? if so where would the other reel of thread go? Would it go on the bobbin holder?

    • @samuelcresswell8719
      @samuelcresswell8719 7 лет назад +1

      i had same issue its because you have threaded it the wrong way round

      What do you mean by the wrong way round

    • @chloerhodes4166
      @chloerhodes4166 5 лет назад +2

      Probably because you put it in clockwise and not anti-clockwise like it should be (:

    Zigzags not working properly...what would be the reason? Is it the tension? I only had this machine 2 weeks. Zigzags works for 2 days then it stops.

    You didn't add a nought to the thread, what's keeping the stitches in?

    • @hummingbirdlady11
      @hummingbirdlady11 5 лет назад +1

      Use the reverse lever (he called it "back stitch button") to back stitch (back tack) a few stitches as shown in the video at 4:20 to 4:40. Don't over do it as only need a few reverse stitches. Got the correct manual for you machine?

  • @juvyvillanueva2399
    @juvyvillanueva2399 5 лет назад +1

    I am just learning how to do this, my problem is the upper threading always cut everytime i will start to pedal what should i do hope somebody can give me a solution

    • @hummingbirdlady11
      @hummingbirdlady11 5 лет назад +1

      Have you found the problem? Many reasons for upper thread breaking: bad thread, old thread, bad needle, too thick thread for the size needle, incorrect upper threading. Got the proper manual for your machine?
