Question 1

Would this be a good machine for a 9 yr old to learn to sew on?  Too advanced? Perfect?

Accepted Answer

I purchased it for my 8 yr. old granddaughter, who had never used a sewing machine before, learning how much pressure to put on the pedal is the biggest challenge. I had practice on an ole piece of fabric.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

For sewing denim or any other type of heavy weight fabric on the Singer Model 1304 sewing machine, please follow these instructions: Machine Settings: 1. Longest Straight Stitch (to allow for the thickness of the fabric) 2. Metal All Purpose Foot (on your machine when it came out of the box) 3. Singer 2026 Needle, Needle size 16 to 18 (using another brand can cause tension issues) 4. Moderate speed when sewing over multiple layers/seams
