I laughed when you were talking about not adjusting the upper thread tension. You're spot on man, I don't adjust mine that much either and often doesn't make a huge difference. Solid job!

@GentStyle 4 года назад

Yeah I have absolutely no idea what it changes! 🤷🏾‍♂️

@StylishDTailors 4 года назад

@@GentStyle well it changes the tension of the stitch but most of the garments I work with are the same, I only change it if I'm working with thicker stuff like denim. BTW what a time to be alive. To brothas talking about sewing machines instead of Lebron James and our love for strawberry lemonade 😅😅😅

@@GentStyle That tension setting knob is the most important part of sowing machines stich quality. If either upper or lower thread is loose, stiches will come apart after some time.

Great introduction to the sewing machine Robert. It can be intimidating at first but with practice, it can be a real money saver! I'm still learning to use mine.

Thank you for the great refresher! It's been years since I've used a sewing machine, and I'm prepping for a new project. I love your approach to making videos. You're funny and knowledgeable at the same time. Thank you!!!

This video has helped me a lot! I am starting to work on historical costuming for my own pleasure and i had forgotten how to work a sewing machine (i had not used one since i was in middle school) and now i am rolling with my own as easy as breathing. Thank you ♡

@kenlane6655 10 месяцев назад

Thanks man. I've always been intrigued by sewing machines. Mum used to have one and now, thanks to you, I know how to thread one up and get it happening. Thank you!

@ikenjj 2 года назад

I found your channel looking for reviews on this machine so that I can tailor my own clothing. This video is perfect, I placed an order for the gray one. Can’t wait to get started.

@Oliverisloved 2 года назад

Great video! I'm considering buying one but have always been intimidated by the complexity of threading the dang thing. This is the 3rd Brother XM 1010 sewing machine video I've watched and yours is, by far, the best. Kudos!

@Fangirl-sg3mn 16 дней назад

No its hard for you when you threat but is because you miss one part Right before getting to the needle Theres is something above the neddle where you also need to slide you theat Thats why you have a hard time.

When setting up, the thread needs to go behind the little catch above the needle Also, never turn the needle backwards. Only towards you

@missymoo363 2 месяца назад

@noahriding5780 Год назад

How do you know which pattern selection stitch types are for heavy cloth, compared to lighter cloth?

@prettyladylh520 3 года назад

Does the machine stop the thread going to the bobbin? How does it or we know when there's enough thread?

@kathleenhartman6390 3 года назад

The bobbin has to be put in so it moves counter clockwise and there is a piece ubove the neddle were the thread goes through before you thread the needle

@pukwudjivc 3 года назад

I was going to say that too. There is a thread guide he missed before threading the needle. He also missed the thread cutter on the bobbin thread channel, and he didn't mention the difference between bobbin winding and normal use on the thread guide on top of the machine. Finally, the tension for the top thread dictates whether the top thread gets pulled to the bottom, the bottom thread gets pulled to the top, or you have even top and bottom stitches. Look for a video on adjusting thread tension on sewing machine. He obviously didn't watch the DVD that came with the machine that is way better than what he did. I don't even know why this video exists as it is just an incomplete version of the video that came with the machine.

@missymoo363 2 месяца назад

Do all or most sewing machines come with a DVD?

@chelseaogle3233 2 года назад

Are you using a different sewing foot than the zig zag that came with the machine? i just purchased the clear brother one bc I was having issues getting the straight stitch to work on the default one.

@katienumiusher 2 года назад

@cloudy7917 Год назад

question: do you have to do this all the time when you have a different thread?

@churchwife 2 года назад

@atiawasima7479 3 года назад

Hi, just bought the machine and I am very new in sewing. Can't manage the speed of this machine. Is there any option or technique to lower the speed for the beginners like I m. Thanks a lot

@GentStyle 3 года назад

Think of the pedal as the gas pedal on a car. If you floor it, it will go fast. Just ease on the gas!

@tinacosio3266 3 года назад

Having problems, getting knots bottom of fabric.

@GentStyle 3 года назад

Make sure you have the machine threaded correctly. If the thread isn’t ran through the proper places on the machine, it will cause it to bunch when sewing.

@cliftonsledge962 4 года назад

Good way to save money 💰 so you don’t have to go to the local tailor for your alterations.

@susanconder6590 2 года назад

Can you tell me why my bobbin thread gathers at times and also the needle unthreads. New to sewing so need a lot of guidance. Thanks. its a 3817

@GentStyle 2 года назад

Make sure your thread tension is 0!

@ProjectPetx Год назад

you need to have excess thread from the needle and bobbin when u start and finish your stitch.

@elisougly7896 3 года назад

Every time I sew it will either skip stitch like it’s not sewing and Idk if I’m not picking up the thread right or sum

@GentStyle 3 года назад

Make sure you have the thread going through the proper channels.

@jaimeg819 3 года назад

Try moving your tension of the thread.....usually 3-5 is best
