Hi, watched the basic video. Great job with that, it was very helpful. Can you please explain how to set the needle in a different position.

[@TiffanyGordonCosplay]

Great suggestion! Ill add it to my list 😁

[@thelotdieulande]

good job

[@TiffanyGordonCosplay]

Thanks!

[@emos2]

How do you decide what thread tension to use? My thread keeps bunching up. It looks ok on the top of the fabric, but the bottom is all crazy and the upper thread sometimes breaks. !

[@margielopez3503]

Very nicely explained. I have problems threading the needle. I have followed all steps and I still have the problem. Can't figure what am I doing wrong?

[@TiffanyGordonCosplay]

if you are having problems with the automatic threader it may be your sewing machine needle. Some types of needles have a smaller "eye hole" that the thread goes through and the automatic threader will not work for it. Follow all the steps to the end when it cuts the thread and then you will have to put the thread in the eye hole by hand. Hope this helps 😁

[@Estellamed]

Can you provide more se 400 sewing ideas? What do you sew?

[@TiffanyGordonCosplay]

I pattern and sew every cosplay that I make using this sewing machine. 😊 Its only recently that Iv starting doing sewing tutorials for them and there is a denim jacket, denim skirt and an anime robe tutorial coming in the next few months.

[@kathrynhoskins2168]

[@jeanne4856]

Is there anyway you can tell me how to adjust the stitch length

[@ateliecrisabreu]

Olá tudo bem? Ela tem entrada para pan drive ?

[@EnthusiasticWaterLily-kl9ih]

Trying to find this machine for sale is hard

[@bopagarcia6695]

What computer do you use

[@c3jammoshop]

Im having an issue on step 9 the thread does not go through the sewing needle. Any advice. thankyou

[@TiffanyGordonCosplay]

Could be a few things. 1. the sewing machine needle "eye hole" may be to small for the pre threader to work with and for this you will have to thread it by hand 2. the thread you are using is too thick for the "eye hole" to go through and you may need to change needles 3. the position of you sewing machine needle may be off, turn the knob on the right to make sure it is in the lowest setting or turn the machine off and on again for it to reset in the correct place

[@joedmalacora4613]

Is there still a Brother SE-400?

[@TiffanyGordonCosplay]

Amazon and Walmart still have them so id say yes!

[@cathyscreations1954]

How do you get this to make a simple zig zag stitch I can not seam to find which one to use

[@monicajackson7266]

#7 is a basic zigzag stitch

[@adrianpalacios864]

Does it work for leather

[@TiffanyGordonCosplay]

I use it on leather all the time. You will need specific sewing machine needles for leather and there are thickness limitations for leather as well.

[@KliffUndersnIII]

TIL the cylinder thingy is called a bobbin.

[@TiffanyGordonCosplay]

🙂

[@sweetczz]

You didn't show how to do a backup to lock the thread in place and then move forward. .

[@abdulhaleemalkhotani7843]

Just watched the video to see how beautiful you are 😗

[@naomim5015]

you're loading the thread spool the wrong way...just sayin'
