Do you Dust your Sewing Machine?

If you don't know, your machine needs to be dusted at least every 6 months.
Mine was up for a cleaning, so I took some pictures. I can't believe how filthy it is! All you do is remove the plate, dust with a paint brush, and replace!
You should also oil your machine every 3-6 months, depending on use. Check your owners manual for detailed instructions on how to maintain it!

THIS is why you rock! I have never dusted my sewing machine before and I am sure my grandma never did it either. I am putting it on my to do list for the weekend. Thanks girly :)

I've dusted out my sewing machine once since I've had it, and my instructions say don't oil it--somehow mine is supposedly designed that it shouldn't need oiling? We'll see how well that works out. I hear the new ones don't last nearly as long as the old ones did!

Oh geez, I never knew that! I think my Moms old sewing machine hasn't been dusted in maybe over 20 years (haha). I really want a new one, been wanting to do so many DIY. Good thing you posted this tip! :)

Hello there! I know this is kind of off topic
but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this
website? I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had problems with hackers
and I'm looking at options for another platform.

I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

However, when choosing a plastic surgeon some things are to be kept in mind.
You have to be very clear about why you want the nose surgery done.
