[@Jazzydaze]

You rocked your 1st unbox! Very well done!!

[@mywithallmyart]

Thank you 🤗

[@WiseLady7]

Mywithallmyart, I love your video! You are such a great teacher! The info you gave on the functions of the presser feet was awesome. I am a visual learner, so I appreciate how well you explain and show each step to operate this awesome sewing machine. You just got another subscriber, my dear. Thank you so much for posting this video. 👍

[@mywithallmyart]

Aww! You are so sweet! Thank you so much and I an so excited that my little video was helpful!!! Thank you for subscribing! Hope you find more helpful info on my channel.

[@jorgeamdv]

I purchased this machine and was about to give it away and buy a new one that would be easier to thread… This is the very best tutorial I have seen on this machine and now I have hope again. Thank you, lady! I am now your fan and follower!!!

[@mywithallmyart]

I am so glad that you liked my tutorial!!! Thanks so much for commenting and subscribing

[@dedemurray7]

I upgraded to this as my primary 2nd machine and I absolutely love it so far. I can’t wait to learn new things on it, great video!

[@mywithallmyart]

That's awesome. So glad it's working for you.

[@burnhard.]

Primary second? :D

[@OperationIsLife]

Watching the video right now thank you MyWithAllMyArt!!! I have this exact model and was searching crossing my fiingers that someone took the time to make a video like this :D Edit: I just found that convenient spacious side compartment and placed all what use to be a mystery set of attachments in them. lol its so nice to understand what the purpose for each one is, it makes this gigantic clutter of items seem a lot more manageable once I put the effort into memorizing the purpose each of these have within our handy dandy portable work of art/divinity.

[@mywithallmyart]

Glad I could help! It was strange to me that there was no book to go with it.

[@hellobeautifulhair01]

I just ordered mine and I can’t wait to use it. Thank you for making this video. 😊

[@mywithallmyart]

You are so welcome! Enjoy your new machine.

[@loishodd8579]

you had the buttonhole maker on backwards. there is a lever on the left of the machine, you have to pull down, in order to use that foot. :) Nice Machine! I love all the features!

[@mywithallmyart]

Oops. I just wasn't paying attention and made a mistake. My older singer has the same attachment and I made a kazillion buttonholes on scrub caps during the pandemic. Thanks for the heads up!!! And thanks SOOO MUCH for watching!!!

[@memestudios9776]

I am very grateful for the way you explain everything, with you I learned a lot

[@mywithallmyart]

I'm happy to hear that! Create something wonderful!!!

[@judylitton4198]

I can't wait to order my singer sewing machine computerized. I got many machine. That the feed dogs broke. They are brothers computerized sewing machine. So I need heavy duty sewing machine to sew my guniea pigs Midwest cage liners. And quilting. Thank you showing how to work this sewing machine. Joann got it on sale now.

[@mywithallmyart]

I bet you will love it for sewing for your guinea pigs.

[@marylemos1564]

I just upgraded and this video has helped me tremendously! I can not thank you enough.

[@mywithallmyart]

I'm so glad it helped! Thanks for letting me know. Enjoy the upgrade!

[@Kevin-sy8uf]

Omg im glad i found your video. Im digging the unboxing

[@mywithallmyart]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@kathypatterson16]

Thank you for this video please put out more video very detailed.,Thank you

[@JamesL5150]

M = MODE. The 3.5 when in straight stitch is center. You can adjust to the left or right if you are edging. For other stitches like the zigzag, it will adjust the width.

[@mywithallmyart]

Thanks for sharing that information.

[@JenRocketStudio]

I love your video! A great unboxing. You have a great personality 🎉 Happy stitching and Thank You

[@mywithallmyart]

Aww! That's so sweet! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@pear1386]

The singer heavy duty 4423 I agree is, in fact, great. I got one for Christmas and I am loving it, accept for the fact that the vertical spool pin is too short for my thread spools.

[@mywithallmyart]

Yes, I love mine. When my thread spools are too long, I have a little glass I put it in. And for my cone spools, I put them in a little dollar tree metal bucket.

[@tjpeemayer]

Yay! I got one just like yours in September 2020 and loving it so much. This is my upgrade from the Singer model which you got in the background. Enjoy your new machine.

[@mywithallmyart]

I am really liking my new one!

[@Ashleyybuckley]

Hey hun thanks for this video, very educational, got my first sewing machine today :) and it was SEW exciting -Ashley

[@mywithallmyart]

Yay, on your first sewing machine!!! Glad I could help!

[@ReefMimic]

Just got mine and I have not a clue how to get started. Instruction manual is useless.. it’s more like a quick setup guide with pictures and no wording. Thank God for KZbin. I thought mine came used because the bobbin was already threaded and installed lol. Ty

[@mywithallmyart]

Yeah! That little booklet is like HUH??? There is a manual online (pdf) that is super helpful. And I love KZbin for just about everything!

[@ReefMimic]

@@mywithallmyart ty! I found it eventually and printed it out. If I spend $400 on something /anything it should come with a complete institution manual if ya ask me

You are so welome!

[@maxwelljackscreations8253]

Thank you for the video! I just got this machine as a birthday gift and I'm looking forward to traveling with it, thank you for showing me how to use it!

[@mywithallmyart]

You are so welcome. I am still learning my machine. Just the little things like the auto thread cutter and needle stopping in the up position!! Enjoy!

[@EmmieC]

Great video. I’m considering getting this machine. Could you do a 1 year update on how you like it after owning it for awhile?

[@mywithallmyart]

Absolutely! What a great idea. Thanks for the suggestion!!!

[@tinay.weaver5766]

This video was very helpful. Good job on your first unboxing. I bought this machine a week ago and I hope it will do oven mitts with ease.

[@mywithallmyart]

Hey, Tina, thanks for watching. I bet it will handle your oven mitts just fine!

[@liliamperez4943]

Thank you so much . For your help . ❤❤❤❤! Have a great day

[@mywithallmyart]

You are so welcome!

[@solarpony]

I wish you were my neighbor, I would pay good money for lessons! I never have sewn in my life and I just got this machine yesterday

[@mywithallmyart]

You can do it! Be sure you get the instuction manual. And I am in the process of making a video about the stitches and how to set them. And tomorrow morning I release a new dt placemat video with a zipper!

[@SummerAlleriaWindrunner]

Thank you so much for this video! Really well done and helpful. I desperately needed the visual aide.

[@apolloeosphoros4345]

awesome video. cheers!!

[@mywithallmyart]

Thanks for the visit

[@madonley55]

Thank you for the tutorial. I’m really stumped though. I do quilting and I would love to use my Seam guide bar but I just can’t find where it goes I cannot find the opening where to put it. I have this exact sewing machine and I have the walking foot on at the moment. Could you direct me somehow to where exactly I put this bar? Thank you. Mary

[@mywithallmyart]

Email me and I can help you with this. nath@myhallcloset dot com. Trying to avoid the bots. It actually is .com

[@drkatel]

Great tutorial! Just got one in November’22 and they’ve made the bobbin threader easier to use. It’s now flat with the foot plate right next to the bobbin. Question: My first Singer uses 15J bobbins. It’s really hard for me to see a difference. Do you know if those will work. I have a lot and hate to waste them.

[@get2craft]

Thank you for the video. How is it holding up after a few months of use? ❤

[@mywithallmyart]

I have been using it for 3 years now. I use it almost every day. It is a great machine.

[@rjj2316]

At 21:41 in your video there is a snap after it stops from running fast - is that noise from the machine or something else?

[@mywithallmyart]

That snap sound was NOT the machine. That was my foot slipping off of the foot control. I was sitting at an awkward angle to record. LOL! I love this sewing machine.

[@maisauf5832]

Hello, I have this machine and for some reason the defaults aren't showing anymore on my screen for m3 and m4 stitches its stuck at 7 and I can't change anything in the settings of it I'm not sure what had I pressed wrong, I would really appreciate a reply

[@mywithallmyart]

I don't know what would cause that. Look on the singer website. There should be a customer support phone number or chat.

[@makeupyourmindinator]

It’s funny how many people call the foot control a presser foot. Some realize it right away and others not so much.

[@mywithallmyart]

I know!!! Sometimes I say presser foot when I mean foot control! Accelerator!LOL!!!

[@get2craft]

Thank you for the video! I want to start denim and leather upcycling projects, as well as some upholstery projects. Is this a good machine for that? I was looking at the Singer Heavy Duty 4452 prior to finding this one half price used on nextdoor. I'm really wanting to get it for the price. Is it as good of heavy duty/as durable as Singer 4452? I can't afford any of the expensive machines, I have to stay under $150. Thank you :)

[@mywithallmyart]

They are comparable. Both heavy duty. The big difference is, the one I previewed in this video has electronic settings. The other one you are asking about is the one I used for years. It's setting are manual. It is a great machine.

[@get2craft]

​@@mywithallmyartthank you :) how is the singer HD 6800c holding up after 3 years?

[@10teeleaf]

Hi! Did you find with this machine, could it sew delicate materials too (organza, satin, silk)?????

[@mywithallmyart]

Yes. You can adjust the presser foot tension using a dial on the top of the machine

[@JoannaReaRubio]

Thank you so much

[@mywithallmyart]

You're most welcome

[@judiesouder9261]

hello i just got my machine 6800c and i need the gathering stitch.....where is it????? i see the buttons where the 2.5 is but that alone is not making a good gathering stitch....PLEASE can you help me? thank you

[@mywithallmyart]

Press the + beside the 2.5 to lengthen the stitch for gathering. Maybe that will help.

[@memestudios9776]

I love it thanks

[@mywithallmyart]

I'm glad you like it!!!

[@thebeach689]

Can you use it for automotive upholstery?

[@mywithallmyart]

I have never done that so I really hate to say yes.

[@Mark-ki3pu]

Is this machine also sturdy enough to sew denim or canvas as they advertise some of the others?

[@mywithallmyart]

I believe it is. In my newest video I stitched through 6 layers of pretty thick fabric. It handled it just fine.

[@desertw6412]

Has anyone found a way to manually change needle position?

[@mywithallmyart]

Only to the left. Let me know if you find out to switch it to the right.

[@mywithallmyart]

Yes, I found out how. With the setting on M1 and set to straight stitch (NOT ZIGZAG). Right under the screen and to the right of the red M1 button there is a wavy line (that indicates stitch width. Stay with me. If you press the plus sign on that button it will move the needle to the right. There is an automatic adjustment for left alignment but this is how to move the needle to the right (a little bit or all the way to the right). I hope this helps!

[@TheMamaAmmah]

What was your opinion of this specific machine?

[@mywithallmyart]

I love it and use it everyday!

[@jenifferbrandt5291]

Hi dear! where you founded on sale?

[@mywithallmyart]

I bought it at Joann's. Regular price was 399.00. Sale price was 319.000

[@loishodd8579]

@@mywithallmyart That is a fantastic price for what you get with it! The walking foot, alone, is a huge extra! I love all the Extra Stitches and the Alphabet and numerals, too. My Brother has those, and I stitch the date of when I finish each of my quilts into one corner of them! That machine, in Canada, is on sale for $419.00, which is still a good price! Nice find, Nathalie!

[@Kevin-sy8uf]

@@mywithallmyart also be on the look out in Walmart. I got it for 280$. Which at the time thought it was pretty high, but now i see it's a bargain

[@frankjanvari8650]

hello very beautiful informative video but please kindly film how to operate the sewing machine electric foot pedal how it's used to sew video please OK?please kindly reply back OK?thank you very much

[@mywithallmyart]

The foot pedal is connected to the machine and laid on the floor where it is convenient for your foot. The more pressure your foot puts on the pedal, the faster the machine will go. I position my pedal where the shorter edge of the slant is closer to me. I hope this helps.

[@mywithallmyart]

I'm sorry

[@randyc8171]

The foot control is NOT a presser foot !!! The vertical spool pin does NOT use spool caps. The red spool you put on the machine goes on the vertical spool pin. They way you mounted it, thread twists coming off which can cause tension problems and cause the thread to break. Always lower the presser foot when using the needle threader.

[@mywithallmyart]

Thank you

I would like to know the reality of this machine, because the reviews are not very good

[@mywithallmyart]

I love my machine and use it almost everyday. Small projects. Big projects. Light weight fabric and heavy weight projects. Note what the reviewers are complaining about. Is it really the machine or is it them?
