    I really appreciate your in put on this machine. I have this one and a few other ones. But this is my baby. My mother was a singer person and I followed her every word. She was a seamstress all her life. If she liked it I liked it She’s gone for 19 years now but her influence was my reason for buying it. But but this machine made me love it all on its own. I see most people doing channels all use Judi etc. I never see anyone using Singer.

    You mentioned that you learned to sew on an older machine. I, too, learned on an older machine. Mom’s Singer Golden Touch & Sew (aka “Touch & Throw”). The reason they were nicknamed Touch & Throw is because they had a terrible reputation, and deservedly so. I hated that machine. Thankfully, my grandmother had a Singer 99 that was a comparative dream to sew with. I inherited it, and still love to sew with it. ☺️ Edit: I never got to my point! Lol! Older machines are not always the best. I do think you should always know the pros and cons of your model, regardless of era, and definitely test drive any machine you want to purchase from a dealer. If you buy from an estate sale, ask them to let you plug in the machine, pull that scrap fabric you brought along to the sale (just for this purpose), and give it a go. If it isn’t well maintained, if it doesn’t feel comfortable to you, don’t buy it. And I would not buy an old machine without a good understanding of sewing machines in general, as they require special maintenance. If you don’t, you could end up with a Touch & Throw, and it’ll put you off sewing forever.

    I'm not understanding the back part of the bodice, I am using your dream frock pattern and if I sew two side back bodice pieces either side of only one back bodice piece won't it be too small as we are missing a complete section of bodice, also it's not sitting properly, because the end bodice piece has a slight angle, do I trim it? I've watched your video over and over but what I have looks nothing like your back bodice @ 4:45.

    While I am really grateful that you are willing to educate us on this, I found this very hard to follow because you speak quickly with little intonation and after afew moment it just went blah blah blah line , blah blah blah line etc etc. I totally own that this is my brain and it’s short comings, but it would be great to have this level of knowledge and expertise communicated in a way that takes into account that if you don’t already know this stuff, it’s a lot of detail and newness. I hope this feels constructive and not just knocking you down, I don’t mean to do that.

    The quality of the pins matter. You don't want them breaking and risk having a hard-to-see and hard-to-find needle lost somewhere in your home. You wouldn't want to find it by accidentally stepping on it. Cheap pins are more likely to fall apart/have the colored ball at the end detach. It may be a little more pricy but it's well worth having you from a serious injury.

    I just realized that I used a Pellon stabilizer for my facing, and lo and behold, the instructions that are wrapped around the stabilizer in the bolt are made of… TISSUE PAPER! I’ll be saving those instructions now, just so I can use them under my delicates. 😊
