Sewing

An automatic sewing machine is a type of sewing machine that features automated functions to enhance efficiency and ease of use. Unlike traditional machines that require manual operation for each stitch, automatic models can perform tasks such as threading, stitch selection, and tension adjustment automatically. This allows users to create complex sewing projects with greater speed and precision while reducing the potential for errors. These machines are commonly used in both home sewing and industrial applications.

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking, but if it is "WHAT IS a sewing machine bobbin?"

then I can help. The sewing machine bobbin is the round "wheel" like part that holds the thread under the sewing needle. In the older machines it was metal, and in the newer machines it is mainly plastic. Mostly, these bobbins are not interchangeable from one machine to the next. Each sewing machine brand requires its' own specific bobbin. Without the bobbin (with thread on it!) a machine is unable to sew.

FOr an average built gal, 5 m is required to stich suit and salwar(patiala style).

They could make their own clothes more easily.

Turn the top piece of the work under to the wrong side of the fitting line. Tack and press, place it on top of the other section. Match all fitting lines. Pin in position. If gathering is needed, make sure they are positioned evenly. Press and stitch close to the edge.

Finish by finishing the raw edges on the back.

You can do this by overcasting or a zigzag stitch.

You want to use embroidery thread which is mostly made of polyester. You also do not want to buy the cheap brands of thread because they tend to break alot.

Depends on the machine brand. To determine which way to load the bobbin into the bobbin case you need to determine which way the slot is facing that the tread slides into prior to it slipping under the tension clip. Hold the bobbin case with the opening away from you with the slot facing up. If the slot on the bobbin case is facing to the left put the bobbin into the case with the thread spinning the bobbin counter clockwise. If the slot on the bobbin case faces to the right put the bobbin into the case with the thread spinning the bobbin clockwise.

I just bought one at an estate sale and I am currently looking for manual instructions.

Cotton. Cotton is a plant and every fall the plant is killed so the cotton boles can be picked. Big machines go through the cotton field picking the cotton and it is put in cotton trailers. From the field the trailer is taken to the cotton gin where the cotton is processed, seeds removed, and baled. The cotton then goes to various places to be sold for fabric and other things that cotton is used in.

I don't know how long ago you asked this question but if you'd like a current value on your Bernina Virtuosa 150 QE machine, please go to a sewing store that specializes in selling Bernina machines. Ask them your question as they have a blue book. This book will give you the current trade in, and selling value. I hope this helps

Uneven tacking is used for general basting, for edges that require less control during permanent stitching, and for marking which can be done by long and spaced stitches. For instance, in holding together the lower part of a full skirt, basting the seams for cuffs or holders and things of that sort. This is also known as long and short tacking which is composed of two short stitches followed by a long stitch. The uneven basting stitch is made the same as the even basting stitch except that the stitch on the upper side of the cloth is made about two or three times as long as the stitch on the under side of the cloth.

Now a days it's the machine in the textile industries

It is easiest to follow directions on a pattern with pictures. The dress will be inside out, and the sleeve will be inside the dresswith the "wrong" side of the fabric on the inside and the "right" side of the fabric facing the "right" side of the dress. You may have to take off part of your sewing machine body to have space for the small armhole under your presser foot.

How many yards of fabric you will need to upholster an average chair will depend on the type of chair. A chair without a skirt covering the legs will need approximately five yards. A chair with a skirt will use about six yards of fabric.

All Fabric

A ribbed fabric is a fabric with intervening raised lines or ribs. Ribbed fabrics may come in a variety of compositions including cotton, wool and silk.

Patterns to cut out the pieces of garments are usually printed on tissue paper. Information such as manufacturer, pattern number, pattern size, symbols for instruction, seam allowance and direction of fabric are usually included as well as the basic shapes.

The presser foot is a special part of the machine that holds the fabric down so the stitches remain even.

I have not seen a pressure regulator on a home sewing machine.

Drawbacks?? Hmmmm...... most people would say that the biggest drawbacks would be the lack of different patterns (zig-zag, scalloped, etc...) and the time used to thread the machine. The new machines offer a plethora of varied stitching patterns, and most are almost "self-threading". HOWEVER, the new machines are built from plastic and nylon. This allows the gears to slip and pop, but not break. So, the machine will look "normal" when viewed, but not be working properly, because the gears are not aligned correctly! The first machines were made by craftsmen, and designed, literally, to last for a hundred years! More and more, people are buying the old machines to USE, not to collect, because the gears, motor, etc. were heavy-duty, and virtually indestructible, and did not require the constant up-keep of some of the new machines! I use a Kenmore model 117.141, built around 1930, that runs as good as when it was new.

The finished edge of fabric is called the selvage.
