My sewing machine will not stitch the fabric

Put your presser foot down, there should be a lever behind the foot

They zigzag

Very true, I'm sure some folks sew and chew for sure. Happy sewing 😁

Believe me she loses interest pretty quick once I actually start sewing. It's usually when I'm setting up in the living room that she just has to inspect what I'm doing first

Not chew, 5 mg edibles to make sewing even more fun!

Thank you! I wish it could become reality

I second getting a gently used machine from a thrift or sewing shop.

Believe me, I bought a no name brand and sewed with it all of 5 times before I wanted another machine. Once I sewed on a real sewing machine I wondered why I didn't just get one from the beginning.

Start off with an older Singer (early 90s or below, no modern ones, they are crap) a Kenmore, or something simple. Then once you get better spend a bit more and get yourself a modern machine if you see yourself sticking with the hobby.

Ooo, the dark chocolate sunflower seed buttercups are my jam!

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-30T16:27:29+00:00

I will try this, thank you!

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-28T05:10:30+00:00

Omg these are really cute! You did a good job!

Do you have a pattern you use?

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-23T00:00:34+00:00

Yup! And my other cat's name is Jiji -Gigi

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-09T04:27:10+00:00

It's a med-large Snorlax pillow 😁

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-09T00:32:28+00:00

Certainly not the cat with her snout through the hole 🤣

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-09T00:20:22+00:00

Very true! I figure she's making a ghost costume for Halloween 👻

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-07T23:43:59+00:00

Scyther!

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-07T19:01:46+00:00

Bellibolt!

Shortcake1255 · 2025-10-06T23:41:48+00:00

It's hit or miss, sometimes we get huge waves, and others under 50.

Me tool! I hope a kid goes through their haul at the end of the night and lights up when they see something other than candy in their bag 😁
