I have a Singer sewing machine from the mid fifties and it has to be oiled before you sew, every time. No, it's not my only machine. I also own a Brother and a Kenmore. The old Singer makes a beautiful stitch and will sew heavier fabric better than the new ones. So now you know about oiling.

What is the best way to embroider signatures on your project. -That is copying someone's signature and embroidering over it for a keepsake project. I don't have an embroidery machine.
