You and Your Sewing Machine: A Sewist's Guide to Troubleshooting, Maintenance, Tips & Techniques (A Field Guide) Review: Packed with tips - I've been sewing for fun and professionally for over 60 years. This book taught me things I wish I had known when I started, and never learned since, like why my foot pedal stops working sometimes (and how to fix it), how to protect presser feet from the feed dogs, and how to get the best knot at the beginning of a row of stitching on my electronic machine. It also thoroughly covers how to choose your needle and thread, and set your thread tension, bobbin tension, and presser foot pressure for the best results. Review: Everything you need about basic sewing machine operation! - This book has everything you need to know about using a basic sewing machine. Good for beginners and for those of us returning to the craft after not sewing for a while. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #139,086 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #128 in Quilts & Quilting (Books) #171 in Sewing (Books) #196 in Crafts & Hobbies Reference | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (543) | | Dimensions | 8.5 x 0.4 x 11 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1617455814 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1617455810 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 144 pages | | Publication date | July 1, 2018 | | Publisher | C&T Publishing | ## Images ![You and Your Sewing Machine: A Sewist's Guide to Troubleshooting, Maintenance, Tips & Techniques (A Field Guide) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718Kj+NYedL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Packed with tips *by B***4 on June 26, 2025* I've been sewing for fun and professionally for over 60 years. This book taught me things I wish I had known when I started, and never learned since, like why my foot pedal stops working sometimes (and how to fix it), how to protect presser feet from the feed dogs, and how to get the best knot at the beginning of a row of stitching on my electronic machine. It also thoroughly covers how to choose your needle and thread, and set your thread tension, bobbin tension, and presser foot pressure for the best results. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everything you need about basic sewing machine operation! *by J***S on August 31, 2025* This book has everything you need to know about using a basic sewing machine. Good for beginners and for those of us returning to the craft after not sewing for a while. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Paid for itself immediately *by A***. on November 20, 2023* I was having a problem with loops forming on the underside of my sewing, and after a thorough cleaning/oiling of my sewing machine, fiddling with tension, changing needle, thread, and anything else I could think of, I was about ready to send it to the repair shop, which would have cost at least $100. But I had this book on my wishlist, so I ordered it and decided to wait and see if it had anything that could help me before I paid someone to look at my machine. Sure enough, the book mentioned that looping of thread could be caused by a burr in the throat plate or bobbin hook, and $5 for sandpaper and a few minutes labor fixed the issue. Things are explained clearly (especially tension) and there are lots of pictures. There are many many different sewing machines out there, and the author tries to explain how the different main types work, even vintage machines. Given that no one book can show every machine, I think this book does a good job of hitting the basics. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/71366933-you-and-your-sewing-machine-a-sewists-guide-to-troubleshooting](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/71366933-you-and-your-sewing-machine-a-sewists-guide-to-troubleshooting) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
