Sewing machine in use with a person threading the needle.

Did you think sewing was complicated? Then don't even get us started on threading a sewing machine. Each sewing machine is slightly different in the way it's constructed, which makes threading a puzzle (read: pain in the butt).

Check out this sewing and embroidery video to learn how to thread a sewing machine or a serger with ease.

There are so many great sewing/serging machines out there. Which one should you buy? How much should you spend on one and how do you even thread them? This video will address each one of those questions. Hopefully it will clear up some crafting fog!
