An excerpt from a service manual for the Pfaff 230 & 332 machines. It reads: From time to time, about once every six month, it is advisable to rinse all moving parts in pure kerosene. This will help maintain the easy running of the machine. Proceed by squirting ample kerosene into all oil holes of the machine, raise the presser foot and run the unthreaded machine at high speed. After oil residues and dirt particles have been washed out, oil the machine and wipe it off. This procedure should be followed regardless whether the machine is used little or not at all. Cleaning and lubricating the sewing hook is instructed on page 64.

Contrary to this instruction in an old Pfaff service manual, we will not be dousing any machine in any amount of kerosene.

At this stage in my life, I consider it a victory if I can be tempted by things in a thrift store, and leave empty handed. The 2 vintage Janome #sewingmachines were tempting. It made it easier that they didn't have drop in bobbins, and weighed a TON (no plastic in these old girls) And the old hifi ❤️

Thanks to the class we taught last weekend (thank you, lovely attendees!), we can finally afford to buy shelves to get our backlogged refurb inventory off the concrete floor!

The shelves arrive next week and we've never been so excited about utilitarian furnishings. #SewingMachines #Sewing

Are older sewing machines actually better than newer? We'll get our answer out of the way up front: Yes, we believe that older machines are better than newer. They're made of sturdier materials and designed to be serviced rather than thrown away. Also, they're just a lot prettier. 😉 Despite these facts, we should never forget that the older machines we're seeing are the ones that didn't already get sent to that great sewing room in the sky.

We believe older machines are better, but are they? Or are we just getting caught in survivorship bias? #Sewing #SewingMachines

Bad thread leads to bad sewing Once upon a time (December), a customer brought their Singer 4411 to the shop. They reported that the machine had started skipping stitches. We gave it the works, a full clean, oil, and tune. Then we tested it and everything worked great. Every type of stitch was neat and even at any speed. Success! Or was it? After the machine got home, the owner let us know that it was still misbehaving.

Think you can use any ol' thread in your project and it'll be OK? Think again. Learn how and why thread quality affects your sewing.

Which needle should you use when sewing different types of fabrics together? A customer brought us her Singer machine because it kept snarling up under the needle plate. We've all been there and it's always frustrating to have this happen. They did all the right things: cleaned out by the bobbin, rethreaded both top and bottom threads, and even swapped in a new needle. Nothing helped, so they brought the machine to us.

You should use a stretch needle when sewing knit fabric and a sharp needle when sewing woven. But what if you're sewing both at the same time? #Sewing #SewingMachines
