    Default My Sewing Woes Fixed

    I bought a brother PRW used off ebay and had a lot of issues with it eating the thread and jamming. After taking it apart numerous times and cleaning it out....I finally brought it to be fixed. He informed me that the timing was all messed up and it sews like a charm now. I go get it Wednesday. Can't wait. So for you ladies out there that keep rethreading and changing needles and are still jamming, you might consider this. It cost me all of 58.00

    if all else fails take it to the pros! DH does and especially if he doesn't want to mess with it. He is very mechanically inclined but he will tell you that sometimes that incline is a little steeper than he wants to go! LOL!!

    I know you feel relived your machine is in great condition. DH and my way of thinking is someone makes a living doing this type of work so why not let them do the work. We use to do everything within reason ourselves but then thought why, this isn't what we like to do so why do we think we have to do it just because we can.
