To help my wife in her business, I decided to learn sewing machine repair and start servicing part time.

Stitching machines appear to be becoming more of a rare item in the home nowadays. Even fifty years ago, having a sewing machine was downright essential! Now, many of us do not know the way to even do a simple stitch, let alone how to thread the darn machine!

Repair is a term that encompasses many different things. If a machine is not working properly, and you make it work properly; that is a repair. In the vast majority of cases especially when a machine has been properly maintained, most repairs are completed without replacing any parts.

Do you get goose bumps when you see those beautiful threads all embroidered from your embroidery sewing machine?

Stitch quality is of paramount importance. Like stitches on a conventional sewing machine, the proper formation of stitches produces either a beautiful and functional finish, or a mess. Unlike the stitches on a conventional sewing machine, serger stitches may have up to eight threads.

Few things are more important when serging than the quality of the stitch. While sergers are a bit more complicated than ordinary sewing machines, they are famous for producing high quality stitches.

Have you ever tried sewing with your serger, only to look down and see missing and skipped stitches? It can be very upsetting. Why is it so hard? Maybe, because sergers are more complicated than ordinary sewing machines or because the run so much faster.

Your serger sewing machine is a great tool, but when it fails to perform, it can be one of the most frustrating experiences a user can face. The serger uses so many threads and runs so fast that flukes can be overwhelmingly upsetting.

Threading my serger can be a hastle. It is so much more complicated than a ordinary sewing machine. Instead of having one spool of thread, you might have as many as eight different threads working all at once.
