How do you lock the lower thread of a vintage Singer sewing machine?
I'm not exactly sure what you are asking. If you want to know how to lock the threads so they won't come undone, it will depend on your machine. If it has reverse or backtack, just sew a few stitches and then reverse or backtack, that will lock the threads. If it's older and doesn't have either of those, 1.you can tie the bottom and top thread tails together, 2 or sew a few stitches, stop, leave the needle in the fabric, lift the pressure foot, pivot the fabric around and sew a few stitches back to where you started, stop, again leave the needle in the fabric, lift the presser foot again, pivot the fabric back and continue sewing, 3 a third method is to turn your stitch length down to zero, sew a few stitches, put it back on the stitch length you want, and continue on. On the last one, if you are using thin fabric, I'd only do this with a straight stitch foot and needle plate, otherwise your fabric may get drawn down into the hole and you'll have a mess on your hands. If you have your model number, you can go to singerco.com and find your manual there. Most of them, you can download for free.

How do you remove velcro from clothing when it is no longer needed?
Velcro is usually stitched onto the items it is used on. Lift one corner of one of the pieces of Velcro and you ought to see the thread. Using a sharp scissors, or a blade, cut the thread, taking care not to cut the clothing. Once the thread has been cut you should be able to lift more of the Velcro away from the clothing. Keep snipping the thread as you go and it will eventually come away. Do the same to the other piece of Velcro. When you're finished you will probably need to pull out a few bits of loose thread which willl still be in the clothing. If the last piece won't come out, turn it inside out and see if you can find the knot where the thread is tied to itself.

How do you operate or sew with a sun hand operated sewing machine?
Just bought one of these at an antique shop and was totally befuddled, but I'm an engineer so I enjoy the puzzle of getting things to work. Here's what worked for me, just successfully sewed up the bottom of a pants pocket. Make sure that the thread will flow freely from the spool, through the two metal eyelets (looks like the end of a safety pin), and through the needle hole. If there's any resistance it will bind up. There's a thing on the side that looks like a pulley with a spring that you'd think the thread should go through but it doesn't. That's only to hold the thread when you're not using it. I held it with the sharp end of the needle pointing away from me and the spool nearest my body, but you can probably do this either way. To get started, have the thread through the needle but NOT into the bottom of the machine. Pull about an inch or two of thread out the front (away from your body). To start the sewing, lift the metal flange on the bottom (has two metal tabs on it and the hole that the needle will go through) and insert the fabric under it so that the needle will just barely touch the edge of the fabric when you squeeze. Each time you squeeze, the machine will pull the fabric through one stich-length, but you have to be sure that it's not binding. After the first few stiches, pause and make sure the end of the thread isn't caught under the flange, it likes to get caught there and give you trouble. Pull the end of the thread away from there. After that, keep squeezing, make sure you squeeze it all the way down each time. Also make sure that the fabric sides easily through the flange. If there are folds in the fabric it might try to bind up. Any binding pretty much screws up the stich, so be careful. When you get to the end of the stich, pull it out a few inches so you have some thread to tie off so the seam doesn't unravel. Do the same for the end you started with. When you're done, secure the thread in that spring pulley so that it doesn't unwind itself in the drawer. I didn't find anything on how to work this other than this unanswered question, so hopefully this helps someone!
