Smart fabrics can be constructed from almost any kind of textiles-from organza to Lycra. As far as electric properties are concerned, most get their charges from fine wires woven into the yarn of fabrics. Others utilize conductive polymers (aka organic semiconductors) or nanocomposites (materials that are created by introducing nanoparticles into sample materials) to make sensors. The sensors can take readings of a person's heart rate, body temperature, odor, etc. and then users can manipulate that data to be used for any purpose they would like. The sensors can be placed anywhere on the garment that's logical.
We have some sort of stimulated arrangement of sensors calibrated with electronic devices help to sense, process & activate the signal in well manner. The sensors provide a nerve system to detect signals. The processor analyses & evaluates the signals. The actuators act upon the detected & evaluated signal either directly or from a central control unit.

It depends on the model of the machine. If the bobbin is a top loading drop in bobbin, it's probably a class 66 bobbin. If the bobbin case is down below on the front of the machine, and you take it out to remove the bobbin, it's usually a class 15 bobbin. If you have your manual, it should tell you what bobbin you need. If you don't have your manual, go to managemylife.com, enter your model number. and you should be able to download your manual. On the newer kenmores, the model number is on a plate on the back of the machine, and will start with 385. and continue on. You need to enter the complete number.

Flannel is good because it is warm, soft and can be washed at any temperature
'Nap' is a term used for fabric that has a 'pile' such as velvet, corduroy, and suede. In other words not smooth, but with a fuzzy, fur-like surface. When you sweep your hand across the fabric, the threads will stand up in one direction, and lay down in the other direction.
When using fabric like this, you want all pattern pieces to have the 'nap' going the same direction, so you have to use extra care in laying them out. Usually you want the nap to lay down from the top of the garment towards the bottom.
