Your Investment in a Sewing Machine

Are you someone who sews constantly or someone who pulls the machine out just occasionally? Either way, basic machine care is important to keep your machine ready when you are and protect your investment.

• Try to get in the habit of cleaning the lint out of your machine every time you finish a project. That way the machine will be ready to sew when you are!

Wires

• You should always be watching for wear signs on wires but while you’re cleaning your machine, take the time to honestly inspect the wires.
• Check the entire length of the wire for abrasions to the plastic coating or for damage a pet may have done.
