I cried like 5 times throughout this video but I made it through to my first stitch!! Thank you for helping this newbie out!! 💗

Thank your for your guidance I'm a 65 year old man about to sew a new canvas for my boat and you worked me through this so elegantly. Never have sewn before. My 1st stitch came out perfectly. I think I love you lol. 😊

Here I am last minute trying to make Christmas presents remembering gratitude for patient people like yourself who put out tutorials like this one. Thank you!

God bless you! I just had to replace my 30 yr old singer to make presents I need to be done tomorrow, and this was a life saver. It's not to much different, thankfully :) To those of you having trouble, just go slow, and you'll get it. Once you do this a few times, it will become second nature.

I'v been sewing for 50 years and this is the hardest machine I've ever had to thread. I had to watch this video over and over but once I got it done the stitching looks nice. I just bypassed the self threader and threaded it manually!!

Great video! As a visual learner, this was super helpful! I'd like to add: one thing that I as a newbie had trouble with is that every time I would finish a stitch and go to take the fabric out from the machine, it would be hard to take out. It looked almost as if the bobbin thread was all jammed up or something and when I pulled the fabric it just wouldn't budge unless I really pulled, and then I'd end up with a mess of more strings than just two coming off the fabric. It turned out that all I was doing was not making sure the needle was all the way up and the thing you put the thread in on "5" (sorry, I don't know what it's called) wasn't sticking all the way up. I though if I just raised the needle a little I should be able to pull it out, but that wasn't the case. This information may be useless to some people, and I am not an experienced seamstress by any means so take in mind I may have said something wrong here. If so, feel free to correct me! I just thought I'd share my experience in case it helps someone out there.

Honestly, the way you explain (and show) things makes it so easy to understand. This is my go to video for guidance!

As an absolute sewing newbie, who has never had luck sewing and always had a bit of a fear of it, I don't think there is ANY way I could have threaded this machine without watching this video! Thank you! I can't wait to watch the rest of the videos!

I’m preparing to return my Brother machine and purchase this one because of ALL the assistance you provide. This beginner needs guidance! ☺️

Just got my singer heavy duty 4452 sewing machine. You are awesome at direction. I followed them to the T and I sewed my first stitch. Not so straight, but I’m just beginning to learn. Looking forward to learning how to sew better. Thank you 😊

My mother's machine from the 60's died and Ive been without for a number of years. I just ordered this for my birthday Tuesday, today is Saturday and it will be delivered Wednesday. Once I get it threaded I should be ok. This model does what my mom's did with the built in stitches. However I will be getting a ruffler and seam binding feet right away. Thank you for the help.

OMG!!!!! I never felt a sense of accomplishment after threading that needle >_< but I did it! I learned thank you so much

Thank you for this great video! I just ordered a Singer 4452 that will be delivered next week. I really appreciate your excellent tips and such a well done, clear video. Great thread color choice for the demonstration, too--made everything super easy to see!

I bought this heavy-duty 4452 for my birthday I am a cosplay designer thank you for your tutorial it helps me to practice sewing

Thank you so much, I bought 4452more than 6 months, didn’t know how to start , I made it to day ,this video was so helpful

Thank you so much for this video, after decades of NOT sewing this video got me thru what I was dreading. You've helped me so much!

Holy Toledo! I just bought this sewing machine last week and was delivered recently. I’m so excited to use it but everything looks so intimidating. However, I thought of the same thing when I taught myself to crochet. I almost gave up on it but I didn’t. I kept going, this is a great video! I will keep watching this video and get it right. Everything on my machine looks intimidating but I can do it!

Thank you so , so much . I ordered 4452 sewing machine , which is very important to have . Greetings from beautiful Hawaii islands ⛵️ 🏝

I cant THANK YOU enough! I just learned how to use this machine thanks to your videos. 😊🙏

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Its not too long and it's just the right info to get started. I have put off setting up my machine until now because all the other videos were entirely too long. 40-50 mins is too long and I found the info convoluted at that length. You simply know how to explain this with ease. I pick up on things quickly but if the artist is boring I give up thanks again for not being boring and telling us we need to know. You're the best!

Omg this video is the bomb . I just got my singer sewing machine and this video help me so much on how to self feed my machine. You were great at how to show each step . I have watched plenty of videos for different topics and they go so fast and you end up rewatch it and still get lost . Keep up the excellent job.

Thank you so much for this video. Thanks to you i realize my issue was not with the thread I had purchased but rather my threading method. I love my 4452 and this prolonged my joy of it greatly.

Thank you for teaching me how to thread the machine correctly! I was struggling before this. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you !🎉

I discovered I was doing just about everything wrong. Lol . This video was great, and now I'm doing a lot better. Thanks.

Very much a visual learner so this was super helpful! Thank you!!!

The series of videos are excellent and well explained with very good visual close-ups of all the detailed threading. I am about to take delivery of a brand new machine and now feel confident about using it. Thank you very much for a clear and well delivered tutorial.

This was SUPER informative!! Great video, you made every step really easy.

I have not had my machine that long and never had one with two different places for the thread spool. I thought I would have to have my machine fixed but you solved my problem within minutes! Thank you!!!

I was intimidated by the sewing machine I just bought into a watcher videos,Thank you.

Thank you so much for making these videos!! You did a fabulous job!!! Soo helpful

I thank you for teaching me how thread my machine. I was overwhelmed at first but clicking on your tutorial made a huge difference. You are an amazing teacher👏🏽👏🏽

Bought a new Singer and this has helped tremendously. 🤗Thank you so much.

I have that particular machine and I have had no problems with the singer metal bobbins

I am loving all of your videos! You teach so well. My daughter gifted me my first sewing machine for my birthday last month and I have no clue how to use it. But I feel confident to try with your instructions. Thank you!

Sewing machine? More of a power tools, it needs to run on gas guy. Dang, was I wrong, THIS. IS. AWESOME. My American flag would still look like a T-Rex mended it, now it's more of squirrel quality. Will get to mama racoon pretty soon. Couldn't've done it w/o this vid, feel kinda...empowered. Thanks. You've greatly helped out a single Neolithic male. Now-On To Buttons, Hooyah!

Thanks for sharing.

Great video!

This was helpful

Best video by far!!!

thank you thank you thank you 💕💕

thank you 💕

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!

Thank you,

Thanks for the fantastic videos on Heavy Duty 4452! I purchased some singer transparent class 15 bobbins but they seem to be slightly different than the 4 bobbins included with the 4452 machine. The ones coming with the machine had 2 holes and the height seems to be a bit less; the class 15 ones that I purchased have one slit instead of the 2 holes, and they seems to have slightly more space for the thread (distance between the upper and lower edges seems to be just a little more than the ones that came with the machine. Is this normal and can I use the class 15 bobbins I bought even though thhey seem to be a little different visually? Thanks for your help

2:17 winding a bobbin really wish she time stamped these in the description

I almost got furious and threw the machine, but now I've done it. I had to use my eye to get it through the needle eye because the easy method wouldn't take.

Hi than you so much for the great video ! I have tried over and over but my bobbin thread is not coming up... what can I do to fix the problem?

Great series of videos! How heavy a thread will this machine handle? Would it be possible to use industrial sized spools? I want to sew heavy materials such as Cordura.

Thank you for this video! My mom and I are going to start making our own dresses and this machine is looking perfect for what we need it for. Do you know if it's possible to do simple embroidery with this machine? Like, just letters? It's the only thing I'm not sure if it's capable of. I can't wait to get started!

Thankyou soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much

Jesus Christ I LOVE YOU THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH

Very well explained. Thank you!

I thought i was good at following instructions until i got this machine. Still can' t figure it out after 3 days: the needle either breaks or the fabric gets stuck or just the upper thread comes off the needle. Awwwww

What would be a good quality thread to use with this machine? I understand it should be a crosswound roll, but what number specifically of thread would you recommend?

Can you explain what is the purpose of the accsessoeri parts and how to use them

Hi please tell me what should be the thickness of the thread for sewing vinyl

my 4452 will not pull up the bobbin thread. It worked fine until after a jam/bunchin of underside thread. I rethreaded , looked in bobbin compartment to see if there was thread still in there, but there wasn't. How can I get my needle to pull up the bobbin thread?

What is the brand of the thread that you are using please.

I have the heavy duty 4452 and yesterday i couldn't get the post that holds the bobbin to push far enough to be able to wind it. anyone have any suggestions on how to fix?

Problem: what am I doing wrong, the pickup becomes wrapped with thread, have threaded thru pickup lever ‘correctly’ have researched that. Please help, thank you. Do hope someone knows & will be kind & offer advice. Ty😅

Wich is the differenc betwen this heavy duty 4452 and other heavy duty models ?!

I have the 4452 and i you can also use metal bobbins. I do it reguarly.

I have the same machine but when I put it to wind the bobbin it is not spinning , what am I doing wrong??

Como usar la singer dirty duty en español

I just opened my machine exactly the same , set it all up, and sewed a few lines on folded cotton fabric. I have the adjustments set as described. I am a experienced, but not advanced sewer. Both sides of the fabric stitches are supposed to look the same, but the bottom side does not look exactly like the top. I would say the stitches are not as defined and look just more like a singular line. I tried playing around a little bit with the tension and length, but it didn’t really make a big difference in this regard. What is up?

May I ask what thread you are using for this tutorial?

If your bobbin does not move push it back to the right against the little white thingy.

What type of thread do we get for this particular machine?

i can't see where to thread, its too small in the video

What is the largest size thread the machine and bobbin can handle? Also what is the largest size stitch?

Which brand thread is best for this machine?

What would be the issue and resolution for the stitch pattern default. Example: Zigzag stitch selected but stitches are straight or zig zag pattern is on one side?

❤❤

I got so fustrated trying to thread this thing I took it back to the store. Sorry but done!

what class threads can it sew?

What brand of thread do you use?

What needle size to use with canvass and thick fabrics

So after you make the stitch and cut the thread you don’t need to tie it off? It’s my first time using a sewing machine and I’ve only ever sewn by hand

Im getting frustrated. I did everything right but my needle isn't catching my bobbin thread.. what am I doing wrong

I can get the bobbin to catch i dont know what I'm doing wrong
