I just inherited my mothers sewing machine, who has been dead for 20 years, from my brother. I can’t find the owners manual for it. I can’t even find this company online. Can anyone help me?

The machine (a brother XL5500) will sew fine for a while then I have to stop and move the material or change something, then I keep getting two problems.
Either the thread from the spool keeps getting caught and the result is like spaghetti on the underside of the cloth and needs to be cut and [...]

Which brand is better in terms of quality and long lasting? Which one has the most pros? Which one works the best?
Which brand would be better for lockstitch and which brand would be better for serger/overlock?
Can anyone please tell me the difference between these three brands?

Hi I am extremely new to sewing and I just got my first sewing machine (brand new brother ls-2125). I read the instructions carefully and was attempting to wind my first bobin when I realized that I have no clue what I am doing. I did everything as instructed but when I press the foot [...]

It’s my first one and I’m a beginner. They’re both under $200.

I have tried readjusting so many things, I dont want to start destroying my machine like I am compelled to, so someone please help!
the top stitching will look fine , sometimes starts to bunch, but then when I pull the fabric up the bottom stitching is all loopy and tangled and loose. sometimes the thread [...]

my daughter messed with the tension on my basic sewing machines i have a brother and an older singer. now they bunch up is it the tension that my 4yr old told me she messed with or did she really do something else???

I have a Brother XL-3750 Sewing Machine that I lent to a friend and it came back broken. The fabric is not feeding into the machine when I try to sew anymore. Does anyone know what can be wrong. I tried a trouble shooting it by changing the thread and fabric but nothing seems to [...]

I have owned my machine for about 3 years now. I have had trouble with it since i got it. I have changed the bobbin from plastic to a metal one. Which seems to have helped with some of the problem. The main problem i think is with the tension. I have tried to change [...]

I just got my first sewing machine and want to get started but i’m not sure what thread is the best to use. Thanks!
This would be for just general clothing and pillow cases – nothing too fancy yet.

I KNOW they’re working because they work PERFECTLY fine on the backstitch! I tested it on paper, and it moved it along like nothing was ever wrong with it. Now, for normal stitching, i have to tug on the other side of the fabric which i know youre not supposed to do. And because of [...]

I just need to buy a standard, everyday, normal presser foot for my Brother sewing machine. I went to two different craft stores in town and neither had them. I want to just buy one online, but am very new to sewing and am not sure what to buy. Could someone [...]

Yesterday I asked a question about bunching on my knits, and alot of people suggested I lighten the pressure from mu pressure foot. I looked last night through the directions on my sewing machine, it a very inexpencive BROTHER from Walmart, and I couldn’t find out how to do this. Do all machines have a [...]

It was working just fine, I have used it a few times now. I go to sew today, starts out fine and then all of a sudden every time I try to sew any stitch, it makes a knocking noise, jams and I have to rip my fabric out and the thread is all tangled [...]

So I bought this Brother sewing machine: http://www.brother-usa.com/HomeSewing/ModelDetail.aspx?ProductID=XL2600i
And I’m going to need to sew a tear in a vinyl seat cover. I was told to use a Teflon pressor foot and I searched Brother’s website and I can not buy one from Brother in-store near me.
So, can I use a different brand pressor foot [...]
