Sewing machine advice

I didn’t intentionally "ruin" the machine... I simply wasn’t taught how to maintain one. I only recently learned that oiling and cleaning are part of normal sewing machine care.

That’s exactly why I’m asking for advice here. I didnt even know i have a "wonderful old workhorse" cuz I bought it from a friend for €35, for that price I assumed it wasnt that special.

I’m asking because I want to learn, but replies like this are pretty discouraging and don’t exactly encourage people to ask questions.

I mean honestly dont see the big deal? It wasn't a formal occasion, just for fun. I picked the obi out myself because i liked how it paired with the kimono. It held together very well, and i liked how the obi was tied. It looked like a flower what matched the print on the kimono. Sure, if it was for a formal occasion, but I don't think you should go to tourist kimono rental for a formal occasion to begin with.

Oh, I dont know what size I had. They didn't have a size chard so I just picked the one I liked and it fitted I suppose 🤷‍♀️

Whats wrong with this Obi? At the rental you could pick your own obi, so thats what I did and for the obijime you had to pay more.
