Mae arrived Friday afternoon. I was so excited when I saw the box. The seller said the bobbin thread would not pick up so that was the first thing I wanted to check on.
When I took the bobbin case out, I immediately saw the problem. They had the wrong bobbin. So I went to the sewing center (about 35 miles) and picked up 6 bobbins. Put the new one in and it picked up the bobbin thread no problem. I was doing the happy dance. I named her Mae after my mamaw that past her love of sewing on to me. I think my first project on her will be one of Mamaw's UFO's that I inherited. Angie |
She is just precious!!! Glad you figured out the bobbin issue. I'm sure you and she will spend many happy hours together.

She is a beauty! I receives mine a couple weeks ago from ebay. I just love these little machines!

Congratulations, she looks to be a winner. They do take a very different bobbin than most Singers, don't they. That was the first thing I did, order bobbins. Toni only had one when she arrived.

I already know it needs the bobbin case and the take up lever. I have located the parts, just hope that the take lever isn't going to be a problem replacing. Wish me luck! |
Sweet...
