use my sewing machine

then it broke.

However I had my first class at the college and it was good and made it seem easy.

Hi I signed up for a dressmaking evening class this week. The tutor says if I take the machine in she’ll help me learn to use it.

I also got the machine out and faffed with it a lot.

I can now get the bobbin to wind.

The settings, I now know mostly what they do. I can change zigzag to straight, vary the length of stitch, change the tension:)

Sometimes I can get the bobbin thread to come up.

Sometimes it sews a bit!!!

All this is new- major improvement!:)
