Sewing Machine Repair for the Home Sewer

Excellent well written and easy to understand primer on machine repair. First rate illustrations. Really helpful for beginner and intermediate levels.

Wonderful helpful

Can't wait to have my area set up to repair my machines. Should save lots on repair costs. Looked it over quickly, should be able to get started soon. Lots of good information.

A good book for someone like me who knows nothing about how a sewing machine works. I believe it will help me with the first step in learning how to repair older sewing machines.

I recommend this book for anyone who sews. I got tired of paying $80 - $100 every time I needed my machine serviced so this has helped me to do a lot of things that are pretty basic. It explains what to check and what to try before taking it in for repairs. Sewing Machine Repair for the Home Sewer

Great book for fixing your own machine

Got this book for a friend who wanted to learn how to fix her machines. She loved it.

Wasn't helpful at all

Should've done review earlier, sorry 😞 This book is fantastic. 2018 had problems with old Jones sewing machine as noisy and not sewing well. Went to sewing machine shop, repair man wanted £200 without even knowing what was wrong, said minimum fee. Bought this book, used it to do full service, solved the problem, now do at least annually. Thank you Mr Doyle!

Great diagrams

I have purchased other books on how to adjust the tension, repairing, servicing your own M'c. But this book has very down to earth advice in it with a different spin on it. One of my sewing M'c fairly new too... was not stitching correctly the other books gave the same advise on upper tension but that wasn't the problem....this book gave another test to check the tension which I had not thought of doing. I also had inherited an old hand Singer M'court that was nothing stitching and with the help of this book I've got it stitching....really helpful book, very handy.

was disappointed at first because it really is quite a slim book for the money and the quality is not great BUT it is very very good at what you buy it for. It tells you a lot about how to set up and adjust, and make minor repairs, to sewing machines. I'd certainly re-buy it if I lost it.

just what l needed l am no expert but l sure did learn more about my sewing machines very clear important information
