If you want to get into the world of sewing but don’t want to spend several hundred dollars (or more) on a fancy new sewing machine, why not give an older machine a whirl? Frankly, I prefer sewing on my 25-year-old machine to any new machine I’ve tried. Instructables user Marguerita M shares information about cleaning and setting up your older machine. Get the info.
