I was inspired by toogie to make this little hanger pouch for the keys to my gun safe. I only had a red zipper and the seams were a little messy but it’ll be inside a shirt so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I just got a buttonholer for my old machine and wanted to

Finally started on the quilt using that panel I posted a while ago. I put two borders around it and now have to make the blocks that go on the top and bottom.

Ugh, cleaning the old machine. <br /><br /> The presser foot on my Singer 99 was lowering really slowly so I've taken out the presser bar and it's soaking in kerosene (nasty nasty stuff) to scrub later. I also cleaned the holes it goes through. I'm

I’m sewing a rooster shaped mixer cover for my mom. There’s batting on most of the pieces so Smokey thought the stack of them was a good place to nap. And I got to use the old Singer machine on a project for the first time cause my Brother was missing

I return, with a new machine I'm planning on getting back to my hobbies and i just bought a new sewing machine! A Singer 99-13 made in 1934. It didn't actually work when I got it (no belt and the motor makes an angry noise instead of spinning) so I t

How do you make fsl with metallic thread? I turned the machine down all the way and changed to a metallic needle but it still wouldn't stop shredding

In my torch welding class I finally passed the stuff I should've got done a week ago and got to start brazing, but it's hard, and I wanted to waste time, and I had an idea. So I got a 5/32" filler rod from somewhere and heated it in spots and bent it i

Anybody have experience with these cutting needles? They "sew" along the outline of where you need a cutout, but without thread, and theyre like chisels and cut the fabric. Im not really planning on getting them because i do fine with scissors, but i

Do you pull up your threads at the beginning? Like pulling the bobbin thread up to the top and let the machine go a few stitches then trim both of the threads.

Leaves! The leaves have 3 parts and I'm planning to make 12. I was on #10 of the big pieces today and the thread broke/shredded like three times before I figured out that it was biasing and twisting back on itself. So I had to unscrew the pin from th

First two projects since getting my machine back! 1. A batch of patches because I sold my last one like two weeks ago. That was actually what made me finally get around to taking my machine in. The camera did weird things to the angles, but in real lif
