Basic Sewing Machine Maintenance with BJ

This is a preventative maintenance course, meant to show the steps any household sewing machine owner should know. It covers home machines and simple troubleshooting. It covers finding manuals and accessories for used or inherited machines. It does not cover industrial or commercial machines, nor advanced maintenance like timing and precise tension.

Bringing your own machine is highly encouraged as this class is meant to teach you how to maintain your personal sewing machine. Please already have your own machine before taking this class.
