We're at Sewcial Studies today from noon-2PM. Come drop off your sewing machine for repair or a well-deserved spa day!
Despite what looks like decades of neglect, this gorgeous 70 year old Morse Super Dial (R5L) still runs…just not well.
But it will soon!
It's now in pieces on our workbench, about to get its first cleaning in who knows how long.
If you want to see some of our other refurbished machines in person, head on over to Bolt Fabrics on Alberta!
We're excited that today the Necchi 535 FA went to its forever home!
It's going to serve someone well and create a lot of great things with them. 🥰
Contrary to this instruction in an old Pfaff service manual, we will not be dousing any machine in any amount of kerosene.
Thanks to the class we taught last weekend (thank you, lovely attendees!), we can finally afford to buy shelves to get our backlogged refurb inventory off the concrete floor!
The shelves arrive next week and we've never been so excited about utilitarian furnishings.
We're just Pfaffing about in the workshop today.
(we can't promise that we'll make this joke each time a Pfaff is on an Evergreen workbench, but we can't promise we won't, either)
This stunning Domestic 151 is home, all sparkling chrome and purring like a kitten.
This one was fun to work on. We got to replace crumbling wiring, get confused by the archaic threading (twice), and rediscover the true colors of those front badges.
This is the upper tension unit from a Singer Stylist 834 and it's being a great big jerkface.
We do not like it when components are jerkfaces of any size, but especially not great big ones.
