Hi all,
I have just finished cleaning my sewing machine - a My Style Janome which was 2nd hand when I bought it a few years ago. I have always been very careful in keeping it clean and free of lint but today, after it making some clunking noises, decided I couldn't wait to have it serviced - about 3 weeks - as I have heaps to sew.
I got my screwdriver and set to cleaning up the mess - and now I have a wonderfully quiet machine that is working so smoothly after a litter TLC - and I don't need to get it serviced until after Christmas which suits me just fine.
Have to say I was astounded at the amount of lint inside - I took off anything that I could unscrew and give it a good clean, very carefully removing the lint - no more clunking noises and it runs so beautifully smooth - better than it ever did.
Di A very happy quilter
