Mike
Hello All~
I was just curious - I have quite a few dress shirts that are a tad too
big on me - but I still like the shirts. I was just curious as to how
easy it would be to alter them into a size that fits me better - i.e.
altering one from a 16 down to a 15 - I'm mainly just concerned with

Hi All,
Does anyone know whether the cutting blade can be moved out of the way or
removed so that the overlocker does not cut the fabric as I overlock?!?

Rope Pull? by
SteveB[_7_]
Anyone know where I can get aluminum rope pull strips? You sew in a round
cord on canvas, then thread the sewn canvas and cord through the aluminum
extrusion. The extrusion has been fastened to something solid, and this
gives you a starting point of attachment for the canvas on an awning. Is...

them together to make the lining of a wool scarf. (I'm thinking that...

Pfaff Hobbylock 4842 Serger Presser Foot lifter problems by
mimiroses
Hello Everyone
My Pfaff serger's presser foot lifter was disengaged somehow. When I
try to raise the presser foot, it won't work and there was a flap
coming out. I am hoping this is a rather easy problem to fix and won't
require a trip to repair shop.
Does anyone out there know how to fix this...

singer walking foot answers and questions by
SteveB[_7_]
I found out one of the problems I was having. When finished sewing, I'd
pull out the material, and three threads would come out the bottom. A local

Have a Singer 111W155 walking foot that I've been putzing around with.
Brought in a large sunshade to fix, and it worked pretty good. I still need

Now to get started on the awning frames before summer. Will post pics...
