Another sunday #craft (#sewing) project! We tried to make a small mobile phone #bag
Was a tough challenge, it was supposed to take 30minutes, but it took 3 houirs. But we managed to finish it, with decent results.

Coming soon to Bolt Fabric Boutique on NE Alberta: This adorable little Singer Featherweight #SewingMachine!
A one-owner wonder with a nearly pristine case, lots of accessories, and the original documentation. It needs a little more work (timing, we think) but should be ready within the week.
So cute!

Sometimes people have their dogs with them when we meet to pick up or drop off their #SewingMachine.
Those are good days. 🐶

3D printed magnetic needle labels attached to every machine so that I know how the machine is setup.
I switch out the label every time I load a new needle so that I don't have to remove the needle to check its size and type.

Dear new sewists,
No one's probably told you before, so we'll do it now.
Those holes in the throat bed and needle plate of the sewing machine? They're for attachments like seam guides.
They are NOT where you put pins after removing them from your project.
This PSA brought to you by yet another pin-related repair job.

Your #SewingMachine is yours! Customize it! Add stickers! Paint it! Decoupage! Anything that helps it feel like a part of your making journey!
But if you do, make it easier for your machine tech by working around the seams between machine case parts. It makes us sad to ruin machine personalization.
We look forward to seeing all the beautiful, unique machines you'll bring us!

Weird how machines seem to come in waves.
In April it was Husqvarna-Vikings. This month it's Berninas.
Maybe we'll get lucky and next month will be some good ol' sturdy Kenmores.

Our loss is your gain: We’re sharing manuals
Whenever we end up having to purchase any sort of manual or parts list for a machine we're working on, we're also going to make that manual freely available on our Manuals page so you won't have to buy it yourself....

Tomorrow's another open drop-off day at Sewcial Studies in beautiful downtown Milwaukie.
Come by any time from noon until 2pm to leave your sewing machine with us for the spa day it's earned!
While you're there, scope out the well curated fabrics available in the shop. Suzanne just received some gorgeous new bolts of linens and Liberty cotton.
We look forward to seeing you!

This just in!
[listening to earpiece]
Apparently we are NOT supposed to answer your vintage #SewingMachine questions and instead are supposed to upsell you to our services or even to buy a machine.
[tosses earpiece in the bin, with predjudice]
Screw that. Have a question about your machine? Email or call us. We'll answer as best we can while still allowing us to service the machines in the queue.
We're all in this together, #sewing friendos.

Lay your peepers on this lovely, vintage New Home! Its controls are straightforward enough for beginners, and its performance is high enough for pros. Check it out!

Did you know that lowering the presser foot on your #SewingMachine engages the upper tension, and raising it disengages tension, so you should always raise the presser foot before threading your machine?

The past two days we've been working on a machine that's been "serviced" by another shop twice in two years, most recently in February.
Look at this mess! So much ancient oil/grease! No surprise the owner came to us reporting sewing problems.
This sort of thing really crumbles our cookies.
How dare anyone let a machine out of the shop and then charge a customer, claiming to have taken care of it??
Grrrrrr.

A fellow ham saw this in Santa Barbara (I think) this weekend. Like cargo bikes? Check. Like anitques? Check. Like sewing machines? Check.

Two weeks ago we get back into #sewing after a while. We tried to make a #zipper #pouch
There are still some imperfection, but we are getting better.

Popped open the hatch on the side, just a light bulb in there. Did see some moving parts behind, all get a drop of oil. #sewingmachine #sewing

@douglasvb @ai6yr This is a typical industrial machine table. The motor is built into the table, not the machine, and is the size of a small watermelon. The machine in question is the one on the left; the Consew is my daily driver. By itself, the Singer weighs 80 lbs. #sewingMachine
