There doesnt seem to be a section for people looking for immediate help when they encounter a sewing problem like on TSF ....or am I so stressed that I am missing it?

Sewing Machines / Buttonholes on Pfaff Performance 5
« on: April 05, 2017, 16:05:37 PM »
Very happy with my Pfaff Performance 5 ....until today!

Spent all morning practising buttonholes ready to make 3 on my tailored jacket which took me over a year to make.

Every one has been a disaster....the machine keeps doing one side of the buttonhole or getting stuck grrrrrrrrrr

Anyone else had this problem?....any advice?

Embroidery Machines / Free Standing Lace
« on: April 01, 2017, 12:41:31 PM »
My new Brother Innovis 3 is a lovely machine and I have been very pleased with the embroidery so far.
However now I am sewing some free standing lace using 3 layers of water soluble stabiliser and the thread keeps breaking.
Tried the obvious things...new needle, cleaned the bobbin race, lowered the top tension and it still does it.
Any suggestions?
