I am very happy with my new machine. It's the first new sewing machine I've had in 42 years, and it is just as good as my trusty, and wonderful, old Singer 'portable' machine. It is even more lightweight, probably because of the outside plastic case.

I find it to be very simple to use. The automatic threader works beautifully, and is a great feature. The machine was easy to learn to use by watching the video and reading quickly through the instruction booklet. My only complaint is minor: the bobbin does not fill up more than half way before it automatically stops.

I've learned to fill up two bobbins at a time, just because they seem to run out quickly while I do my machine quilting. I've made several quilted tote bags and one baby quilt so far, and it has been excellent for those jobs.

My sewing is limited to hems, and items for my house, including pillow shams and duvet covers. Although I don't sew often, my standards are high. I use good quality materials, and want my seams to the straight and even. I expect a sewing machine to be heavy-duty enough to sew through two layers of upholstery fabric, plus trim or cording, including where the trim overlaps for tidy joinder. I found the Singer 6038 was not up to these, and other tasks. Specifically, the automatic needle threader did not work after I changed the needle the second time, it was not sturdy enough to sew through overlapping trim or cording, even when I tried to urge it along manually, and I was never able to get the one-step buttonhole feature to work, despite repeated attempts.

The machine has a cheap appearance, being made out of plastic, and I am wondering if Singer makes a model with all of the new features, but also with their former sturdy construction. I did like the convenient storage in the base of the machine, the push-button reverse, and the ease of changing needle position, stitch, and pressure foot.

However, overall, I have not been satisfied with this machine, and, after working with it for two years, have given it to my mother. I am now seeking to buy a model that will sew through more than two layers, and has a buttonhole feature that works. I recommend spending a little more for a better quality machine. *** UPDATE 03.2014 *** I have had this machine almost 10 years now.

It's still go some real quirks. I can't make the buttonhole attachment work at all. Download quickbooks pro 2008 serial key free pdf. It has some issues from time to time with sewing that seems like the feed isn't working properly. Cleaning it helps a little, but doesn't solve the problem.

I have done a bit of sewing with it over the last 10 years and it still mostly works for simple straight seam sewing. Some day I'll replace it, but overall, I'd say I got more than my money's worth out of it. ***Updated Info*** I will post the update BEFORE the review I posted a while ago. I think it will be more helpful that way.

Temple of anubis strategy. The problem that some people are having with this machine might be the same one I had. The booklet has a misprint in it about the type of bobbin this machine uses. It says it takes a class 15 bobbin. This is NOT true.

The real bobbin type needed is a class 66. And I must say, to Singer's credit, their customer service department has been very nice throughout this whole ordeal. Once the bobbin mix-up has been cleared up, I have no complaints with this machine. I'll leave the first review here, in case anyone has similar problems to the ones I had, so you'll know how to fix it. Everyone with problems should check their booklets, it might be attributable to same misprint in the fold out pamphlet, page 9, in the parts list section. Use class 66 bobbins, not 15s.
