Having a SW would be sew much easier than wasting thread in the middle of a huge project to have to wind another bobbin. I wish I had known how to mark and sew accurate 1/4" seams. Plus the trick of marking it on the throat plate and bits of the machine closest to me instead of just relying on the length of the foot.

I work with my Girl scouts on them & it would be easier to teach them all how to use the one bobbin-winder machine, than to explain each machine's bobbin-winding operations. None of the girls have mothers that sew or own a machine. <br />I think the most important lesson I learned besides checking things are squared up is not to "iron" but press your seams. My first rail fence quilt had terribly wonky lines due to my scrubbing-motion ironing!Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00363617518491944786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8431029515503371778.post-79978499588622402122011-12-17T03:16:18.557+10:002011-12-17T03:16:18.557+10:00I sew clothes a lot.
