Hi,
My name is Fran Bowman and I live in central California, USA.
My sewing interests are: making garments and household items for myself and gifts; sewing for doll repairs and doll clothes (I run a doll hospital); and patchwork quilting. I also love fabrics and sell them on eBay.
I found this site on google when I was searching for how to repair my Singer 201. This is the machine that my mother bought new in about 1954, and I learned to sew on. I also own a Singer Featherweight machine made in 1948.
On your website I found a discussion of the exact problem I was having with skipped stitches, and I was able to fix my machine quickly with that help!
