Great piece of history, sorry that you lost most of them in ww2. Sad to say most craftsmen are a dying breed. And not much coming into the world of repair and fixing things. A sad world.

Wow, that is so wonderful. What I wouldn’t give to know exactly how to repair my machine! I made the mistake of spending a couple hundred dollars on an “online course” that turned out to be just a collection of pdf owners manuals. Your family history made me smile!

All your articles are good, but I really enjoyed reading about the evolution of your company from its very beginning! I wish you had a clinic here in Atlanta!

Loved the story. I have a Husq Designer SE I Love. My husband is trying to trouble shoot it. It just stays in one place and you try to sew & motor is running like it is sewing but not doing anything any suggestions on what to look for? Really miss my machine, could send a shor video to show you what I am talking about if that would help. Sandy

Fascinating, global story, full of both world and familial history! Thanks for sharing this...By the way I am loving my Janome I purchased from your shop, and enjoyed my experience with your team when purchasing it as my first non bargain basement sewing machine!

I loved the comment regarding this pair being the best at fixing any type of sewing machine. My husband can do that with a semi engine. Young people can come out of trade school with beginning knowledge but it takes years of experience to become a master in a trade. I love this newsletter. Thx for publishing it.
