I just picked up my 301A from the Singer repair person. It just needed a good cleaning and the bobbin winder wheel replaced. (I have had it for a while but just never got it to the dr. for a check-up.) It sews like a dream, the straightest stitch I have ever seen.
Now if I can just figure out how to FMQ, I will be one very happy quilter. I know how to lower the feed dogs, but I can't get it to make a stitch. The needle moves great, but the top and bottom threads don't form stitches. I have a fmq foot that fits slant shank machines, but it just doesn't work right. It is all plastic.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!
I will be taking my Rocketeer in next for a good oiling and check-up.
