Being a Hillbilly , what if we just call this harp a Hole, after all a needle doesn't have a eye , it's a Hole

Here's my two cents. I contacted sew-classic about the 66 bobbins being too big. She replied that hers are checked and will fit the older machines. All twenty that I bought work like a charm.
Aren't I sad today. I'm visiting DD north of Baltimore and brought my 1963 New Home to quilt a project. Well, the motor died today. For awhile she would take off and sew perfectly if I just bumped the wheel. Now she won't do anything. Its not the machine. With the belt removed I finished the seam by spinning the wheel by hand. And the motor does nothing even with the belt off. Sigh. Where in the world will I find a motor for Myrtle? |

If it's an external motor, take it off and take to an appliance repair guy. It may just be brushes or worn contacts. I took my Universal in to get a new cord, but I know he went over the entire motor.

My one BIG problem with multiple layers of thread on a bobbin is there's never enough to finish what you are doing. You just get started and run out. I did that three times with what was on the bobbin of the MW just to see how much was there. Not enough of anything until the last layer which was packed in rock hard and rusted.
Frugal is one thing, but winding over other thread is a wasted effort. More trouble than it's worth. JMHO Joe Sharon |
I just heard from the 301's seller. She wanted to know what I wanted for the broken case or did I want to return the machine? My answer will make some you purist's hair stand on end - the price of a roll of duct tape and a can of spray paint. I want the case to store the machine after she makes a table runner, not for its possible historical value. I do not want to return a 301!!!!!
