Sewing machine care and finishing touches for garments

The article encourages cleaning and oiling sewing machines, using kerosene to remove gum, and soaking parts. It explains how to reassemble parts, run the machine to clean moving parts, and use back stitching, baste stitches, and pressing for professional results. It also describes tools like an iron, sleeve board, point presser, beater, steam roll, and homemade pressing cushions.

Proper Pressing Procedures for Garment Making

This guide explains underpressing and top pressing in sewing. Press each seam as you sew, using a seam roll to avoid showing on the right side. Shape darts and tucks over curved areas with a pressing cushion for a soft rounded finish.
