I just want to say I love the 15000 - I did an awful lot of research before I bought the machine as I am sure anyone would have done - or at least should have done - before buying such an expensive pi

Wonderful! Do you have fantastic eyesight? :0) Anne www.sewingtales.wordpress.com https://www.flickr.com/photos/94302460@N03/sets/ "Live like someone left the gate open". Kimberly Burnham ​​

First I must confess I don't have the workbook - but I'm curious as to why people think they need the workbook. I think the manual is really comprehensive and contains so much more info than I have ev

Jim Thank you so much for the bobbin winding info! I've never seen that suggested before and it just seems so logical now you describe it. It basically replaces the tension you put on the thread by no

Cas So pleased for you that you are enjoying the workbook. It seems to be exactly what you need for the way you work. For me I like the manual - I think it is exceptional amongst the manuals I have fo

Geraldine You are not being a nuisance, and really not sure why you think that! :0) You did receive an answer to the question you asked - which is absolutely right and what you need to do - that is us

Cas Yes there are different types of twin needles, both in needle size and width and also in needle point type. You can get them for embroidery and stretch sewing and there is also a special twin need

Cas I really don't think the Heirloom twin needle is the right thing to use for unwoven fabrics, especially heavy ones. The Heirloom twin needles, in which one has wings, as well as the single twin ne

Before I explain this I have to mention that I often do 'thought experiments' - the same sort of things that are done in theoretical physics (another of my interests but I won't go into that! 0)) In m

I've only had my hands on one touch and sew - and yes they do have the bobbin that winds itself via the needle and are slant needle machines - I found it curious especially with the air pressure pedal

I won't say I primarily sew anything in particular - though I do use a lot of sewing machines! I sew all sorts of things, with all sorts of fabric (material -we used to call it in the old days! :0)) A

Cas Your comment regarding measuring the high bust to size things reminded me of an excellent Craftsy class I took a while back - ( Sewing Bras - Construction and Fit) http://www.craftsy.com/class/sew

I agree that I don't think it's a good idea to wind over thread already on a bobbin. This can lead to an uneven wind and tension which won't help the stitches, plus personally I would want to know tha

Jacobean embroidery (together with the celtic style) is my favourite form of pattern. I love fabrics that have this style, plus also include paisley designs. The style allows a lot of interpretation a

The easiest way is to just do a search for it. I think by default it may install in your user documents folder on your C drive? I copied mine after installation to my D drive as I don't like data file

Maria First I don't have version 5 installed so are you trying to view them from within v5? I thought the My Designs folder inside v5 was the place to view the designs (I think that replaces the Desig

Since twin needles have been mentioned recently I thought I would ask about the info shown regarding twin needles on a photo on this listing for Klasse needles. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Klasse-METALF

Thanks for all the replies. Heather I don't think the info was saying a twin needle gets hotter than a single one, but the single one is held by it's shank in the needle clamp - where as each twin nee

Just thought I would mention that I've bought a binder for my machines - but it's an industrial binder and it cost around £15 including postage. This one - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/171316992098?

I can't believe there would be so many to one machine in a class. I would certainly expect my own machine so I could try out things and not be rushed on anything - I am not a quick worker and like to
