    Greeting  Poppy my …
    Greeting  Poppy my question is in using a regular old singer machine and transforming it into making it work like an embroider machine, because I know that you have to drop the feed dog so it won’t go up and down, so how do you make it work for an old singer. Right now I do it by hand and I have so many machines like your self and I would like to use one of them just for embroider.

    Hi Poppy. I am looking for advice on the best sewing machine to get for just doing this. I currently have an old Jones xl 65 machine but can’t seem to lower teeth on it for doing freehand …. what cheapish machines would you recommend? Thanks

    Thank you for your …
    Thank you for your feedback. We didn’t mean to mislead. The video is an introduction to one of our freehand machine embroidery workshops, hence the title but I understand not very helpful if you want to learn the technique. Do come and join one of our workshops if you ever visit the UK though, as you can see they are a lot of fun!

    I expected a tutorial; this video is stuck in amongst all the teaching-to-embroider videos. It’s actually a video-advertisement for a class in England, is it? Great ad, the class looks like fun. But I live in the US. Perhaps the text description about the YouTube video could be clearer?

    Great work. Using old singer machines to embroider is more difficult when using the newer generation sewing machines
