I have this machine, can ou confirm to me if reverse stitch will land on the same hole as normal stich? Lengthwise, I can't set mine to have the same stitch size front and back 😅 I wanted to sew leather, and the needle has to come back to the same holes. I actually own 3 of these machines, and none does it exactly right. Is it a common behavior, or am I just unlucky? Mines do backstitch always a bit shorter than foreward stitch lengh. Thanks in advance

You may need to use a walking foot machine to sew deer hides with or a machine that is made specifically to sew leather with. Another option might be getting a foot that is made to sew leather with. Be careful with sewing this on a regular basis on your 20U. It could throw the timing off.

What thread do you recommend to use with this machine?
@SewWithMonti
@SewWithMonti 5 ай бұрын
Thank you for your question. The type of thread that you use will depend on type and weight of fabric.The most popular threads will be a polyester or a blend of poly and cotton. If you are using synthetic fabric, I suggest staying with the polyester. Sewing with cotton or linen is better with the poly/ cotton blend. The average weight for apparel weight fabrics such as dresses, tops or mid to lightweight pants is 33 for a size 80/12 needle and 46 for a 90/14 needle. There are many types of threads depending on the type of fabrics you choose, such as silk, nylon, lycra content and leather. The needles also vary depending on the fabrics as well. I like to test my fabric with the needle and thread to see how they react together before I begin a project.

Hi Monti, how do you oil the machine?
@RhaeyaCreations
@RhaeyaCreations 7 ай бұрын
You can take the top off, a few screws and it has a oil drip pan. You oil the pan and it should drip where it needs to go.
@SewWithMonti
@SewWithMonti 5 ай бұрын
There are two types of oiling systems for industrial machines. The newer machines are self oiling. They have a pan underneath the machine. There is an oil pump attached to the under side of the sewing machine that will distribute the oil to the pan. If your machine does not have an oil pump, then you need to keep adequate oil in this pan by filling it to the indication marks. The older machines (and some specialty industrial machines) use the “wicking” method to oil. Inside the machine is fibrous pads that soak the oil up and distribute the oil to necessary areas. These machine will have holes in the top of the machine to put the oil in with a dispenser. My Singer 20u is this method. The pan in this type of machine is shallow and is there only to catch drips from the machine. Don’t add oil to these pans! It will make a mess and doesn’t oil your machine.

Hola, La rodillera sólo bajará o subirá el pie de presión. No controlará la configuración de zigzag ni los dientes de arrastre. Puede ajustar la altura de los dientes de arrastre, pero es complicado y podría resultar difícil reajustarlos. la configuración normal. Si está interesado en bajar los dientes de arrastre para bordar, le sugiero hablar con un mecánico profesional. ¡Espero que esto sea útil!

Greetings from France 🥰 Congratulations 👏. The more I watch YOUR videos which are so well explained the more I want to get to my machine. Zippers and collars WERE my enemies 😅 no longer. Today I'll be fitting a zipper into my pants I'm working on. I thought it was IMPOSSIBLE AND ONLY FOR PROFESSIONALS. Finally its easy peasy. Pockets without zipper I've made many but this one was NOT FOR ME. You made it sew so simple and sewing becomes a PLEASURE AND ENJOYABLE EVEN AT THE RIPE OLE AGE OF 72😅😅😂. I am watching all your beginners videos. I have a computerized Brother since 1982 and made hundreds of shirts with collars and pants for my 2 year old son (in 1982) and shirts for my father in law and blouses WITH COLLARS, pants, pjs and more for me. But after my tragic aggression in 2015 where I first got paralyzed, 6 months on a wheelchair, then last chance, had back surgery, nothing interested me, not even my knitting machines. Just hugged all my faithful fur pals, a Newfoundland and Labrador and 14 cats in 2015 all of them gone since 2018. A HALT UNTIL AUGUST 2023, THREE WEEKS AGO. Fell upon your flutter sleeve video and got hooked and "threaded". Your videos are so helpful and encouraging and boosts me to LOVE my machine. My Mom taught me to sew dolls clothes at the age of 6 a tiny tot, on her super Singer with a giant size pedal 😅😅. No patterns, just tracing around dolls clothes and then sending it to the machine. What was great with this pedal machine was when I was given a shelling I hid myself under the sewing machine comfortably seated on the pedal. Mom couldn't find me but my silly dogs 21 of them, all barking and wagging their tails, sent her to me😂😂 . I'm sure she had a giggle but had to pretend to punish me also. Thanks for sharing caring and making a 72 year old SMILE 😊. BEARY HUGS FROM MY 5 year, 70 KILO GENTLE GIANT MY NEWFOUNDLAND a great water rescue dog, 5 loud purrs and a hug 🤗 from me. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🤗🤗🤗

Greetings from France 🥰 Congratulations. A big wowwzy. I am 72 years and thought of making a sleeve out of the ordinary 😂. Will people make fun outta me???? I found this video and FELL IN LOVE WITH THE FLUTTER SLEEVE. SO GRATEFUL and ELEGANT. I have watched many many videos ON DIFFERENT TYPES OF SLEEVES. The flutter sleeve IS MY FAVORITE but other videos were discouraging. Yours is EXCEPTIONAL, SO WELL EXPLAINED, A VERY CALM POISED SOFT VOICE, AND THE MEASUREMENTS ARE INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT. This is MAGIC. I have to try this first on an old tee shirt, don't wanna waste my stretch fabric. I will have many helping cat paws with the paper pattern and drool from my Gentle Giant on the edge of the table. My best ever faithful fur pals. Thats part of the fun making my shirts and blouses ITS STRESS FREE with my now 5 cats, one just died, wrongly diagnosed for arthritis over a month, Vet refused an xray of her chest, she had a minor breathing problem. End result, two days before she suffered in agony the vet decided to get this x-ray. My cats lungs had detached from the "wall of the stomach" sending too much air into her heart. Had the vet listened to me😪 she wouldn't have endured all this. Worst part is that i asked him to PUT HER TO SLEEP AND HE REFUSED. I KNOW MY ANIMALS BY HEART. So making this flutter sleeve will be in her memory. Thanks for sharing caring and making a 72 year old SMILE. Beary hugs from my water rescue dog my 5 year Newfoundland and hugs 😊🤗🤗🤗 from me. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹

I have acquired the same exact machine, which I love. Straight stitch works perfectly fine. One issue is zig zag seems to bunch the fabric under the zig zag stitch. I even loosened the tension all the way and this did not fix. Do you have any suggestion on this beautiful machine?
@SewWithMonti
@SewWithMonti Жыл бұрын
It could be caused by several things. The needle size needs to be compatible to your fabric. Make sure that your needle isn’t too large or small. The lighter weight the fabric, the smaller the needle. Also, try changing your needle and using a new one. Needles don’t have to be broken or chipped to not perform properly. Sometimes they are just dull. You may need to adjust the size of your zigzag widths or length. It your fabric is light weight, it may not accommodate a wide stitch. The 20u is made to sew a wide variety of fabrics, so all stitch settings aren’t ideal for all fabrics. The lighter the fabric, the less likely the wider zigzag will perform properly. If you try all the settings and needles, you may need to have the head serviced.

This machine has an oil wicking system. It does not have an oil pan in the bottom that is drawn up into the machine. There are oiling hole on the top of the machine that you squeeze the oil into. You don’t need a lot of oil. just a few drops in each hole is enough. The oil will then collect in the shallow pan underneath the machine as you use it. Occasionally check the pan and make sure oil is clean.

Good afternoon. Mrs. Monti, great tutorials on this bomber jacket. I'm doing the same jacket, but I'm using pattern C. I'm making a XXL, however when I did a trial run I found out 2 things. (#1) I'm gonna need to use the XXXL pattern for a little extra room. (#2) I'm also gonna need to lengthen it. Lengthening the back pattern will be no problem. However, at the lengthening lines on the front has a pocket going thru the lengthening lines. Will I need to extend the pocket as well?
@SewWithMonti
@SewWithMonti Жыл бұрын
Hi Sterling, You don't need to lengthen the pocket. It can stay the same size, but you need to lower it's position on the pattern. Use the lower mark after adjusting the front jacket and add the the upper pocket placement mark the correct distance from the lower one. This will keep the pocket in the correct postion.
