I’d love to take a Pixie Faire class that shows me how to better utilize my sewing machine when using difficult to sew fabrics – you know the ones, the slippery, the ultrafine light weight, the very lacy, the extremely heavy, the different thicknesses in a single material like brocade. I know I should probably be changing the tension settings to adjust to the different thicknesses and textures but… who has the time to actually read the manual? I know there’s differences between different machines, but some stuff is probably general to all of them…
