Basics! Basics! Basics!Apr 22 '00 Write an essay on this topic.Don't forget the basics ! Whether you are a novice,in search of your first sewing machine or an proficient seamstress looking to upgrade your equipment,you must be prepared. The most important thing keep in mind is to match your skill level to the sewing machine. Be sure also to keep the purchase within your budget. Remembering that nothing can be more defeating to your "creative spirit" than having a beautiful machine which sits in the corner of the room that has so many fancy things on it the your afraid to touch it. Basic questions that should be asked either to yourself when you view h machine, or to a salesperson. 1.How is the bobbin threaded? Does the bobbin have to be removed from the casing in order to be loaded? 2.How is the machine to thread? Does it handle double thread loading? 3. How is the needles changed? Do I have to have a special tool to do so? Does the machine accommodate double needles? 4. How is the thread tension and stitch length set? 5. Is the power controlled by the foot or knee? 6. Will my needs be best suited to a portable,stable or free arm machine? 7. What is the warranty? How available are repairs? Like any purchase remember to do your homework. So you will end up with a product that will serve you needs today and for many years to come. A FRIEND INSTEAD OF THE MONSTER IN THE CLOSET.  |
