Suggestions:

  • Change your needle whenever you begin a new order
  • Verification of needle advice in the sewing machine book
  • It's important a correct relationship between needle number and thread number
  • The medium time of needle life is 10 or 12 hours
  • Needles with crooked points or warped needles can damage the cloth and the sewing machine
  • The sewing machine strain always refined. Strains too tight cause wrinkled sewing
  • Keep the bobbin of your machine always clean.
  • Always make a sample before beginning any work and so verify the stitch refinement
