My sewing machine broke so my mom let me borrow one of hers. I go to cut my fabric and my scissors have Nick's all in the blades and need replaced (I've had them 20 years). I manage to make it work and set the machine up to sew. It will only sew backwards! So I get the book out and it says the feed mechanism is damaged and to take it for repair.
Looks like I'm using my daughters hello kitty machine to sew this project. I'm going to a sewing show Friday and I'm hoping to find a new machine then.
How disappointing.
I'm frustrated

I’m sorry. Good luck.
Lol at least it's more of a real machine just kid sized not one of those cheesy things.
My husband fixes sewing machines. He says take it apart enough so you can aim a hair dryer into the feed area and get it nice and hot with the hair dryer to see if you can get it so that it "breaks free."Anonymous 1 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 8:10 pm My sewing machine broke so my mom let me borrow one of hers.

What a going on!
But don't fret too much about it. Get excited about the new sewing machine you'll be getting!

I'd try it but I already gave it back to my mom. Thanks though.Anonymous 2 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 9:20 pmMy husband fixes sewing machines.
