craftgrrlmy sewing machine is ill :(
the trauma is overwhelming. its this model
anyway, if i turn the wheel at the side the needle goes up and down just fine. if i presss the footpedal i get alot of whirring but no sewing. i'm just wanting to know if this is something anyone else has experienced, and is fixable, before i start to raise the money for the repairman. i tried oiling it and kissing it and promising it if it starts to work again i will always be good to it from now on, but that hasn't worked.
this may be cross posted. any help gratefully recieved
