I finally got around to hemming and hanging my 2014 Spoinflower tea towel calendar. Best thing on the internet (Spoonflower tea towel calendar artists). This year's was by mrshervi.
I know it's April. Dude, I HAVE a calendar. But my sewing machine broke last year and I just haven't invested in a new one.
The in-laws moved recently and one of the treasures in their magic basement was a 1910 Singer sewing machine retro-fitted with electricity and a (stubborn) pedal.
Holy bananas, it worked.
I checked Singer's site but the manual is not available online (surprise?). I'll call them tomorrow.
After some investigation, I found the bobbin. It was tricky.
Couldn't figure it from there.
It lifted up! But that wasn't helpful at all.
But then I figured out through fifty trials and fifty errors that the silver panel SLIDES. I CAN reach the bobbin. Hopefully someone at the Singer 800 number can help me thread it tomorrow when they open.
