My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Old Singer stitching not uniform, help please

19 years ago

Hi!

I have a 1951 model Singer that was my grandmother's. I have had it serviced by an excellent older gentleman who got it in working order.

For awhile it was doing great. Now, however, the stitches aren't uniform. Depending on stitch length setting I put it on, it will make those size stitches but with really looong stitches too at random! I am a semi-newbie. Any suggestions?

Many thanks,

Rachel
