I took my grandmother & her sewing skills for granted. She passed before I was interested in sewing. I just wanna thank you for teaching me how to use my new machine.❤

It’s always the nice ladies who take their time to actually teach others. I was so confused and you helped me so much!!!

I'm a dude an I realize a southern lady could teach me anything and I'd get the idea. Ty Ma'am.

I have had this sitting in the box for 4 months. When I opened it and scan through the manual I got overwhelmed, so I googled for an instructive video and yours popped up.
I'm so glad because your video is easy to follow, with clear instructions and helpful tips. Rather then spend hours reading the manual, you got me started and ready to go in 20 minutes!! When I need help again I'll come right back to you!! Thanks so much.

I’ve been hand stitching since I was a little girl and my grandma never got the chance to show me how to use any machines but this was incredibly helpful so thank you so much for doing this for people like me that need guidance!!!

Hello. Out of necessity I recently purchased the Brother LX3817, because of my daughter-in-laws recommendation. Had never used a machine before. However, after 2 months I find it really easy to use for my sewing projects, and I have learned so much about other types of machines and sewing. Turns out the learning process is not as difficult, as I thought it would be. I have begun to look forward to using my little investment (almost) everyday. Only thing is I need to purchase some new material and a few extra needles. I have had a lot of fun learning a new skill at my age. Thank you so much for this video.

This is my THIRD time buying a machine and attempting to sew. And maam let me tell you, youre the reason I plan to continue this hobby. The instructions were confusing me SO much and your video explained really well. So many time Id get confused just trying to thread and get the string correctly then jut give up because the paper was frustrating.Thank you

I just got my machine about a month ago and every time I forget how to do something I come back and refer to this video! Thank you so much!

[RosemarieAdragna-Elliott]

Thank you so much! I was having so much trouble threading the bobbin - I was putting it through the wrong clip and just wouldn't work - when I saw exactly where it was supposed to be threaded in the bobbin case, it worked perfectly the first time! Thank

I'm a visual learner and I knew as soon as I picked up that thick info packet I was screwed. Thank you for explaining everything in a more clear and concise way. I'm 33, I have always wanted a sewing machine, and my husband just got me one for my 33rd birthday :) I have about 2% experience with sewing machines, but i did make a pocket in my Highschool family and consumer science class (home ec) lol but lord that was nearly 20 years ago!
I'm definitely subscribing so I can learn about all the ins and outs! Thanks again!

Did everyone just get sewing machines lmao also thank youuu

WOW WOW WOW! It’s my lucky day to have found your channel. What a blessing you are. I know ZERO about sewing, got my machine today, and without your guidance wouldn’t have a clue how to proceed. You are a wonderful teacher!

[lisaaugustine]

so far, all of the videos i’ve watched on how to get started on this machine made me want to give up, but this is the best one i’ve came across! i’m so motivated to get started! thank you so much :)

I bought mine today! I learned how to hand sew last night and realized that it takes forever so I bought this sewing machine at Walmart for $85. Your video has been VERY helpful. WAY BETTER than the instruction manual.

[youtubin]

You uploaded this video 10 months ago from today and 10 months later, it's still making using a sewing machine easier for beginners. Thank you, ma'am, and please continue to live out part of your purpose in this life by posting more helpful content :) #Blessings

I can't thank enough for the little tutorial instructional video!!! I just purchased the brother 3817 at Walmart. I have not sewn in years and this was such a great reminder video to get my sewing adventures started back up!! 🪡🧵📍👏👏👏
Thank you sooo much!!!! 🙏

[autumnmceachern]

I have had this machine sitting in my closet for years and I finally have learned to use it. Thank you.

[sleepyfacedangel]

I haven't sewn with a machine since I was a teenager 20 something years ago. I got this little machine to make facemask & for other simple projects. Thank you for the easy to follow step up & basics... It's all coming back to me now! Bless you... ❤️
