Hello all, So I eBayed myself a Husqvarna 310 and it came with none of the accessories that are indicated in the normal packing list for the model. While wrangling with the seller, I started searching around, locally and on the web, and haven't been able to find anything at all about purchasing...

Greetings all, I would be infinitely appreciative of a recommendation for a consumer sewing machine able to sew canvas. I am just looking to use it for boat canvas repair and the odd cover now and then and am not looking to put heavy hours on it. Many thanks for you help! -jeffrey

Does anyone know how to put beads in hair? I know how to braid, but I don't know how to make the beads stay in. I've googled, but no luck. A web site would be good. Jen

I need instructions or a pattern to make a frog costume for my daughters school play. I'm a good sewer, so there's no problem there, I just don't have the imagination. Does anyone have any patterns?

Please tell me if there is a machine to do just plain straight stiches for doing dungarees and pants and adding patches. I am a "single Dad" with growing kids who need hemming all the time. My own jeans too. I have an old Singer machine but it does not seem strong enough to go through the tough...

My 8 yr. old granddaughter is beginning sewing. A couple of good projects for her: 1. Pet blankets for the SPCA to give to animals. They get to keep the blanket & take it to their new home, if adopted. 2. Dress stuffed animals for the highway patrol or police to give to distressed children. As...

I picked up this idea at a SPCA web site. Volunteers make sleeping pads for the animals. Some animals are given their pad when they leave the shelter. It's comforting to have something with its own scent. They should be washable, durable and survive strong disinfecting. They asked for 3...

I'm looking for a pattern or any ideas on how to adjust a pattern to make a majorette uniform. I tried contacting a few pattern companies, but the patterns aren't available anymore. Any help would be appreciated.

My now 10 y/o DD loves American Girl dolls. I know that Pleasant Company once made patterns for doll clothes. Does anyone know if they ever made patterns for girls clothes? I think I'd seen patterns for girls clothing in the late 80s or early 90s catologs, but maybe I'm just thinking I did. ...

I have an Industrie Bernina 850. It has been working great and all of a sudden the top thread did a whiplash motion and the backside of the stitch is very loose and loopy. I got a burr on the needle, it was obvious there was a problem. Changed the needle, made certain the timing was correct with...

Hi Fran, I know you submitted the following article several years ago but I thought I would take a chance and see if you could help me since your answer was so good.
