Look what i got today! #singer #sewingMachine
It was my ex mother-in-law’s machine. She sew all the clothes for her children. She kept it so well. I have to learn how to thread it but ex said he found the manual online

I bought a buttonhole attachment for my Singer 201K, a machine old enough that it doesn't have a zig-zag stitch function. This attachment (the black one) is a little mechanical marvel and moves the fabric instead of the needle to zig-zag stitch.

Included with it were a ruffler and a tucker foot, a little unexpected bonus and more little mechanical marvels.

Habe sie gereinigt und gewartet. Sie ist sehr hübsch und scheint nie benutzt worden zu sein. Nach meinen Nähversuchen weiß ich auch warum nicht. 😬 Ich habe sie Marfuschka - Seelchen! getauft. Sie hat viel, sehr viel Charakter - aber ich bin störrisch. 😅

“Hunched over a #SewingMachine, Kil Bae is #hemming a dress inside his Manhattan tailor shop when a new #customer
stops by with a vintage Tommy Hilfiger jacket he wants taken in.

The modeling agent paid $20 at a thrift store for his reversible bomber style that’s plaid on one side and red on the other. He’s willing to spend $280 to have it slimmed down. #Alteration requests with such a price disparity would have seemed odd a few years ago, the #tailor says, but are helping to keep the #bobbins bobbing at his one-man shop, 85 Custom Tailor.“

Hmm, is 120 years a "reasonable time" to request a warranty repair? #sewingmachine #warranty

New #sewing experiment (I'm learning how to use a #sewingmachine).
I tried to make a #laptopbag with #wonderwoman #fabric.
I'm new to the sewing world, and I have a lot to learn, so apologies for all the imperfections, especially the zipper! But I'm happy that i managed to finish it. Here the full story (free): https://ko-fi.com/post/Long-time-no--sewing-A0A7150002

Huh. I want the Shelley's pull-inward-at-the-top-of-the-cup look, with wide straps (why is this ever left out), boning or cording to spread the pressure, and non-synthetic fabrics.

Another weekend project, this time a #sewing one. It is a small pouch for my girlfriend. Since it it my second sewing machine project, lot of things are imperfect, and even an untrained eye can find lot of problems. But it was a complex project for me, so i'm happy with the result.
