I really don't know if you and find "replacement" decals. Some were decals, but some were actually hand-painted onto the machine! You may have better luck finding someone to paint the design back on, but unless you are using the machine for decoration only, the paint will probably not last long.

First of all, you never sew over pins on any sewing machine because the needle might hit the pin and bend or break. Secondly, you never sew over pins on a serger because the pins might get caught on the trim blade and cause a malfunction or damage to your machine. In both cases, before a pin gets to the needle, either slow down or stop for a second to remove each pin.

The name originally came from demin fabric that was washed in large commercial vats, with small pumice pebbles to give a worn, faded look.

Now it just means a color of jeans called stonewash, or in other words, worn faded jeans. If you want your 'plain' jeans to look stonewashed, soak them in cold water for several hours, then rub sandpaper over them until they gain the proper worn look, and wash as usual.

You can buy a package of dye at the store called "stonewash".

A layer cake is a term used by Moda Fabrics for a pre-cut 10" squares with 40 pieces. A line of fabric has designs that work well together. When a manufacture prints a line of fabric, the designs are printed in varying color combinations. This is a sample pack from a line of fabric.

Those "seams" are actually called darts. Darts differ from seams because seam are used to join separate parts of fabric together. Darts are used to add shape to a garment like to taper a shirt from the bust to the waist. Darts are also used to customize the fit of a garment like to add shape to a straight or boxy shirt.

There were no Singer sewing machines in 1803.

Two characteristics of good stitches is that they are tight and evenly spaced.

Used Singer sewing cabinets sell for between $10 - 20. The condition of the sewing machine inside is irrelevant.

The value of the sewing machine is approximately zero ($0.00). There is nothing wrong with that particular make or model. Ninety-nine percent of these older, electro-mechanical sewing machines aren't worth anything because the cost of having it serviced approaches or exceeds the price of a NEW machine from a discount store. A new $89 machine will do everything the old one does and more. An old machine that has been stored away for years always requires service, even though it appears to sew ok for a quick test. All the grease and oil which lubricated the machine has either hardened or turned to varnish. This gunk has to be cleaned out and the machine lubricated else the machine will jam and break threads on the first project. Although older machines might be constructed from mostly metal, this alone doesn't make them "better" than a new machine having a lot of plastic parts. Mass produced, consumer goods from yesteryear have all same short comings of modern mass produced, consumer goods. They cut corners to save cost. You don't find out what these corners are until you have a problem. You are unlikely to break a new machine but if you do then you can take it back. Breaking an old machine will lead you down a path of frustration. You'll discover that the "all metal" machine has little plastic gears and a rubber timing belt, both of which have become fragile with age. This is why there is little to no market for old sewing machines. When you own an old sewing machine that you must get rid of, feel satisfied if you find it a good home; otherwise it will end up in a landfill. Of course, you can always stick it to someone by asking a high price for the machine than laying in wait for someone who doesn't know how to value such items. This happens all the time in antique stores.

There is a new magnetic floral corsage base that uses two magnets, one in the corsage and one on the other side of the fabric. Speak to your florist for details, but it is strong enough to hold a corsage to shoes and gentle enough for the silk. If one must pin a corsage to silk, it is best to put a tissue into the dress for the pin to go through so the fabric will have stability and not tear. The pin marks can be carefully "scratched" back together with the point of the pin when the corsage is removed. Are you sure you don't want a wrist corsage?
