Thank you, for your presentation! I am a 69 year old retired man and decided to get a sewing machine and learn to sew. I have been wanting a canvas crutch holder and also a cover for my powered wheel chair. My wife hates sewing. I remember my Dad using my Mothers old Singer sewing machine to make a cover for the family fishing/ski boat, back in the 60's. With help setting up the sewing machine from Mom and a little instruction, Dad made an awesome boat cover. Well I decided if Dad could do it--then--so can I. I bought the Singer 4452 Heavy Duty and had NO idea where to begin. KZfaq is wonderful--I found your channel and you got me started! Thank you!😎🤟

Thank you so much for this video. I have been intimidated to try my hand at sewing. I wound my first bobbin, threaded my first machine, and sewed my first stitches as I watched along with your video. To all the men out there. Sewing isn't just for women!

Just got mine in today. So thankful I came across this video, genuinely don’t think I would have been able to thread it and get started without watching this!!! Amazing!

Thank you for taking the time and effort to make this video! I've never sewn before and have been so intimidated to set up my 4452 that I bought. Watching your video, I was able to set it up, load the bobbin, thread the needle all on the first try! You also gave a lot of tips and information that aren't necessarily in the manual but are so helpful for a total newbie like me. Thank you again!

21 year old here getting back into sewing. I impulsively bought one of these and your tutorial was just what I needed!!

Brilliant! Complete beginner here who has purchased this machine. I have watched quite a few tutorials but yours is by far the best. Thanks for putting in the effort to help a new sewer out! 😊

Your video is excellent. I am an old time sewer with this new sewing machine. Thank you for your simple directions on use of the Singer 4452.

Thank you and bless you. Very educational for me as a first timer sewing...you are deserves 5 Stars....thank you!

My sewing machine was sitting untouched for a year and now thanks to your video and thorough tutorial, I set it up and I'm very excited to start my own projects. Thank you!!

As a visual learner vs. a reading learner, this was an excellent video for me! Got this for Christmas and can't wait to use!

Just bought this machine. Your video is really appreciated.

After much trial and error, I have found that proper threading of this machine, and especially, proper thread tension is critial for smooth and uniform stitching. Do not rely on just the numbers on the dial to adjust thread tension, because threads vary by size, thickness, weight and composition. You must actually feel the tension by pulling the thread through the tensioner to determine the correct setting. This is easy to do. Simply thread the machine as usual but stop just before putting the thread through the eye of the needle. Lower the foot, and then you can confirm if the thread tension is too tight or too loose by gently pulling the thread through the machine. This is an extra step that no one mentions, but will eliminate many thread problems.

You are honestly the best instructor I have ever seen on the youtube channel,,, thanks for the instructions..

Wow! You are an excellent teacher! Learning to sew has been a goal of mine for several years but I’ve had nobody in my life to mentor me. I bought a machine this weekend because I couldn’t attend my classes this semester. I enjoy how thorough you are with explaining all the features and aspects (I’ve taken several notes!) Now I’m not as overwhelmed as I was a few hours ago 😁 Thank you for helping me start my journey!

I just bought this machine. Haven't touched a sewing machine since I was a kid, so I scheduled a free lesson that's included but the teacher got sick and had to cancel. This video is probably better than I would have gotten anyway! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for walking through this so thoroughly! Exactly what I needed. ❤ Thanks mom!

Thank you for this video, I haven't sewn on a machine in 40 years and want to start again. You are awesome!

This was so helpful and had very clear instructions on how to load the bobbin and thread everything! Thank you!

by far the best tutorial on this machine- Singer should hire you!

I bought the sewing machine without manual book (was missing) but this video is telling me what to operate and really helpful thank you so much you explained very detail for the beginner like me.

Thank you! I just received this machine as a birthday gift and I’m so excited to get started! ❤

Thanks so much for the details you gave! This is one great lesson! I’m a retired school teacher and I admire your straight forward comprehension instructions! 42:35

Thank you for this overview! I was able to follow along and am now making my first stitches on the machine.

Super helpful. Never sewed before today and after your video I'm off and running. Thanks!

Thank you for the excellent intro - as a total newbie to sewing this was a huge help! ❤

This video is amazing. Thank you for taking the time to make it, I learnt a lot and will be watching it again once I have my machine.

Thank you for making such a thorough and thoughtful tutorial!

This is the best video on the Singer Heavy Duty 4452. Just got my machine for Christmas. Can't wait to try it out! Thank you!

I’m grateful for your videos to aid with my learning curve. I find them very helpful with clear informative directions and the additional thoughtful tips to show safe operating habits are all appreciated

Thank you for the teaching video. Have not sewn since I was in high school many years ago! This video refreshed my memory & taught me new things too!

I have watched a ton of videos and your is the best. You got me started again. I was doing a few things wrong and you showed me the right way. Thank you!!!!!

Thank you for your tutorial. Have been reading the manual, but with your step by step instruction, I could now try it on my own. Thank you again. ❤

Excellent instructions! It's been years since I've sewn anything and am now venturing into a business with sewing!!!

Thanks so much for taking the time to make this! Extremely helpful. You have a knack for teaching!

Thank you so much! You made threading this machine so easy! Always had trouble with the bobbin with my old machine! You are a great teacher! I have to look for other videos that you've made. (I haven't really sewed using a machine since 8th grade.....back in the 70's 😊

I just bought this same machine & I’m happy I found your video. Your the only one who actually showed me the correct way to setup & use this bad boy! Thank you! ✌️❤️😁

Thank you so much. I have mom's Husqvarna from the 70s, and husband bought this for me to update things. (Nowhere to get the oldie fixed up near me!) I loved your video, it was very helpful.

I just bought this model as my first sewing machine and I’m so so thankful for your video

I feel so glad I watched this whole thing through. I am ready to purchase my 4452 for leather patching and am confident this video will help me with the basics before I start getting into leather. Great video

Thank you for how you explained step by step plus safety tips. Its been years last I used a sewing machine and just bought this model and needed a refresh on threading.

Thank you, Mom! I needed this sewing tutorial #1 I think I am going to buy this exact machine sooner. I want to make my own camping tents and all those stuff.. Thanks again!

You’re an excellent teacher. Thanks so much. Now I’m off to watch your other videos!

What an awesome little video for someone who never used a machine like this before, granted some of the close ups were a little blurry but give the woman the credit. Not bad for a one lady show. Im also a bit confused about the auto threader, although I suspect something is wrong with mine. It doesn't seem to swing forward to get close enough to the needle.Hmmm

This was really incredible. I have a Sharp Euro Pro and the machines are nearly identical. Your video was incredibly helpful. Thanks for your time! 😊

This was wonderful. Thank you for the help with setup!

Well done instructional. Not a single word was wasted. Thank you.

Thank you for this informative and clear video. I'm so glad I watched it before I started using my new machine!

Thank you for this great video. I have been using this exact model for a year or so and have learnt a few things about threading the bobbin and using the better quality thread that I didn’t know. 😃

Thank you so very much for this. It is the best and clearest straigthforward directions/instructions. You made learning so easy , building on each concept one by by, You are the BEST! I will keep coming back to parctice till i can do this! Love that accent as well 😂😂😂

I love your tutorial. I just got this machine and I’m so excited to get to work with it!!!

Thank you for helping me get my machine set up. I. haven't sewn in several so this was Mzing!

My husband bought this for me today and I was looking up videos about it. So glad I came across your channel! So excited to keep up with all of your sewing tips!

Thank you! I took a couple of sewing classes awhile ago but just now got my own machine. Your video was perfect to get going. I appreciate your pacing and great camerawork.

Your explanations are fantastic! Thank you so much for taking the time to show and tell this machine! I am picking this machine up today and am so excited to start using it, thanks to your video! You are wonderful!!!

Thank you for the video. My family gave me this machine for Christmas. There was no manual. So happy I found you.

I've had this machine for almost four years. I use it every day. It's a great machine.

New to the world of sewing. Soooo helpful! Ordering mine today and will be referring back to your video a ton. Thank you for making this. Very grateful.

Thank you so much!! I was gifted one of these machines, and watching this video was a great way to get started with it!! Excellent explanations and tips. Thanks!

thank you for all the love, effort, and knowledge put into this video. i’m a beginner and just bought this machine. i finally feel ready to unbox it.

Bought mine Aug last year, have it shipped here and just opened today LoL. It’s been ages since I had my hands on a sewing machine. Thank you for the detailed “walking me through”. Im excited to try this. Big thanks and goodluck on your channel. Subscribed!

You did a fantastic job with this video! Your explanations and demonstrations were so thorough and extremely helpful and easy to follow. I’m looking forward to the holidays being over so I can play with my new heavy duty Singer machine. Oh, and your southern drawl made it even more enjoyable! 😊. Thanks, looking forward to the next video.

Your video came on after I finished another tutorial, but I thoroughly enjoyed your southern country drawl, as well as your explanation. I put my singer away and just sat and listened to your video. Thank you!! 🙏🏽

Thank you! I briefly used a sewing machine 20 yrs ago. So it’s been awhile so rusty & excited & I have the 32 of my he heavy duty

Wow amazing video I received this machine for Christmas! Like attending a class! Awesome. My previous machine, 20 years ago was a Kenmore. Thank you so much for this video!

THANK YOU! I have never sewed, I’m almost 70 and I just bought this machine!! Guess I got a good one! Thank you again!

This is a new machine for me. Thank you for the introduction. Much needed!

This was fantastic! Thank you! I have had this machine forever and always struggle to thread the machine properly. You made it easy. Thank you!

Awsome! Cristal clear explanation with every detail. I learned a lot from this tutorial. Thank you

Very informative video, thank you. I have that same machine which is over 2 years old and haven't taken it out of the box yet, afraid of screwing things up!! LOL! I'll have to unbox and try it. Thank you again.

very clear step to step instructions. It made me feel less nervous about buying my first sewing machine. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

This is such a great video! I was able to follow along and completely understand everything! Thank You! I just scored this machine at Michael's yesterday on sale for $139. I'm so excited to start sewing. ❤️😍

Just got my singer machine and this video was so helpful!!! Thank you so much!!! ❤

I'm a beginner and as other have stated, thank you kindly for making an easy to follow tutorial! Much appreciated.

just bout my sewing machine and I know very little about sewing. I found this video extremely helpful. I love that it is step by step instructions.

God bless you, you made this easy for me. And this is my first time ever using a sewing machine

Bahamas is i the house, I just brought my singer sewing machine today ,I learned a lot from you today .I was very blessed I learn a lote from you today you so much God bless.

You are awesome! ❤ Thank you for this video. I haven’t used a sewing machine since I took home-ED in high school so you could say I’m a beginner again. So this was such a thorough video to get me started & refreshed! I’m still working on trying to get the needle threader to work for me… will have to practice with that! Lol! God bless you! ❤

Thanks for your Video… I haven’t used a sewing machine since 7th grade and I’m in my late 60’s… Your video is so helpful 😊

Thanks so much for your easy to follow videos!!! I just bought my Singer Heavy Duty 4452 machine and was trying to adjust to the different ways to do buttonholes, etc. (I had an older singer without the automatic extras). I tried following the sewing manual (ooey!) and they I watched your video on how to use the automatic buttonholer and it was MAGIC!!! I am now subscribed to your channel and am learning so much. Thank you very much for your expertise and kindness in sharing!!! Ali

Thanks for helping me this is my first machine. I purchased a 4432 I can not wait till it gets here.

You are so awesome!! Thank you for teaching g in such a kind way

Very well done. The written Singer instructions that came with the machine left me with some questions but this cleared them all up. It was a great help. I strongly recommend anyone with this machine to have a look at this first.

I'm learning to sew as a new hobby. I bought my machine yesterday and I'm very eager to begin. This tutorial was very helpful for a beginner like myself. Thank you!

I just got my machine today!Thank You so much !! Absolutely great video tutorial.. ,very, very informative!!!!!!!

Awesome! Just set up my machine and sewed!!!!! Thanks to you 🥰❤

Thanks for this! I’m waiting for my machine to arrive and I’m so glad I have a heads-up about all the nuances! I’m used to my mom’s old 1968 Singer and there’s differences, lol!

Excellent, very clear instruction at an easy to follow pace.

I just bought this model and really appreciate your video which is so clear and detail helping me to start with it. Thanks a lot for your efforts making this awesome video.

Very thorough tutorial. Thank you for taking the time to do this. I’m in the market for a beginner sewing machine and I think this one will fit the bill! Cheers 😊

Got this as a wedding present and never touched a machine in my life. I watched this whole video and got to run some fabric through my machine! Thanks for taking the time to make this.

just bought one of these last night because my older machine doesn't do thick stuff and am trying to finish a gift. Anyway, thanks for this video you made , it was very helpful !

Thanks so much. I really needed this great walk-through. Just started working with my 4452 and didn't know where to start.

Great presentation! You are a great teach! God bless you my sister!

Very good instructions. I'm an old sewer but I'm thinking about buying a 4452. ( I learned something new, about the thread. I wasn't aware of the difference in threads. )

Thank you so much. I’ve been making little headway up until now. Your video has turned that around.

Just wanted to give a huge THANK YOU to you for this video. I just set my first machine up and took my first stitches solo using your guide. Massive help, and I'll probably be referring to your video at least several more times before it's fully filed away.

I was going to get the 4423 machine which is in short supply so I opted for machine in this review, glad I did. I am going to start with a cross sling pouch to carry phone. My project is not a pattern so I will learn seam allowance and mock-up for final design. This is all new to me and will lead to projects which will pay for the machine & supplies. New hobby turned serious. Thanks

Thank you so much! This video is very much worth the time it takes to sit down and watch it all the way through. I've been using sewing machine since I was a small child, and I was pretty much self-taught. I just got a singer heavy duty machine and I wanted to know some of the details about it. But I'm not a read the book type of guy, so I generally look for videos that are 5 minutes or less. This gives you so much more information than just how to use the machine. It's like hanging out with your best friend when they do a brain dump for you on their favorite topic.

Very nice overview of this machine. You sure did a great job with your camera to show close up and how everything works!!

Great video, I appreciate all your hard work. You got me up and running, and changed my mind about this machine. I was going to trade it in for the Singer 6380... I''m still thinking about it. I can not wait to see the rest of your videos!! If you ever need a film crew I'm in :)!
