I bought this machine for my wife today. She’s excited and I’m getting a crash course in how sewing machines work 😄 Great video!
Thank you for watching and for the feedback, Robert! -TB
Just like a husband, watching the video to be in the know, just in case something goes awry. Big ups!
I've had a few jamming issues but I'm thinking it was due to my bobbin being threaded poorly haha!
If anyone else has this issue, it isn't addressed in the video but it's a very easy fix! Turn your needle towards you, lift up the presser foot, pull the fabric out of the way- gently without ripping it- cut the thread with a scissors and take your bobbin out, clear out the jam and re-thread.
Definitely a beginner sewer here and I had a tiny bit of experience over 13 years ago in grade school but it was nice to refresh the basics. Thank you for sharing. This machine is much easier to understand than I was expecting! Now just to practice my stitches and get better at getting straight stitches!
Also, never actually tried sewing a button hole but I followed along with the video lesson and worked like a charm! Perfect outcome on first try! Thank you!
This is one of those machines that you pass on from generation to generation without losing their value. And I really appreciate this sweet lady for helping us get started.
This saved me! I got my sewing machine about a year ago but didn’t know how to set it up and couldn’t find time to get lessons. I finally found this video and now I can make all the things I’ve been waiting to do! Thank you!
It's 10pm on a Saturday and I'm watching this, actually finding it cool, as I need to learn how to use the machine we got our daughter, so I can be the bad-@ss dad who teaches his girl how to sew. I think I want to do some sewing myself now. The interesting turns quarantine takes you on! Great vid!
Hi Michael! Thank you for the feedback. And if you do want to get into it, you know who to contact 😀 Let us know if you have any questions! -TB
Thank you for the great tutorial. I learned a lot about this machine. I just bought it and this really helps me a lot. Im actually a newbie (clueless on how the sewing machine works lol) now I know hahaha! Im excited to make linings for my crocheted projects. Thanks again ❤
She did a great job and is very helpful.
Thank you for your support! 😀 -AR
This is such a helpful video, I was able to thread my machine correctly the first try and I’ve never used a sewing machine before
Hi Sunzie! Thanks for the feedback and for watching! -TB
Thanks for such clear instructions! You have such a pleasant voice. The great thing about these videos is that if I need to watch some section again I can just rewind. I’ll most likely watch this video again (probably more than once). 😊
Absolutely excellent instructions. The step by step instruction both verbal and visual are so easy to follow and has made me able to understand and use my machine. Great instructor!!
I just treated myself and bought this sewing machine! I can’t wait to start making my own clothes!!!!
It has been years since I have done any sewing. Yay! Thanks Singer
so helpful! thank you so much for the tutorial, resolved so many questions to a completely clueless beginner!🤍
Hi! Glad it was helpful! -TB
This tutorial is wonderful! It makes it so easy to learn about the machine.. Valerie is a very good instructor. I just got this machine and so far so good. Very happy.
We love to hear this, Kathleen! Valerie is a fabulous instructor. ❤️ Happy sewing! - AB
Just ordered this machine thanks to you 💕
it was easy to understand this sewing machine she did a great job in explaining the features of this 3342 a great video
I just bought this mashion. Your video was so help full. Thank u so much 👍👏👏👏
Hi! Thank you for watching and for your feedback! -TB
Just noticed the PUSH lever as I was putting in the bobbin. So now I know it is for buttonhole making. I noticed in watching this that it is not necessary to "thread" the bobbin and bring it up the way I had been doing it for over 60 years. I will see if that is true. Thank you for this thorough and pleasant tutorial.
I just bought this machine and your video is so helpful thank you

Very helpful. Thank you!

Thank you for the tutorial.
Thank you for watching, Marina! -TB
Extremely helpful.
Hi! Thank you for your feedback! -TB
Does this machine need to be oiled?
THIS IS UHHHMAYZING!
Thx for video. Its helpful .
Thank you 'sew' much for watching! -TB
The red high thread was not included. Is there a specific type I should buy?
Thank you!!
You're 'sew' welcome. Thanks for watching! -TB
Does this sewing machine have a noisy sound?
Anyone else have trouble with the auto threader? This was the main reason I bought this machine. It worked the first time I tried it. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you
Hi! Thank you for reaching out to us with your issue. To better serve you, we need to request more information, so please reach out to us on our other social media platforms: Instagram (@singersewingcompany) and Facebook (facebook.com/SingerSewingCompany/). Thank you! -TB
Where can I find a resource that tells me which stretch stitch to use for which type of stretch fabric? Your stitch selection guide recommended by your manual has a illustration of each stitch, but doesn't categorize or explain which are stretch stiches. I need the information so I know which stitch, stitch length, and width of stitch for my fabric. Oddly I had a Fashion Mate 45 years ago and could do all these things because I had a manual that told me. After years of quilting I'd like to sew knits.
Hi Jan! I'm also going to provide my response from your question on the other video here. The stitches in Black are most commonly used for woven. The stitches in Blue and Red are usable with knit. As far as which stitch, that is going to depend on you, what your project is, what look you want to achieve, etc. I do recommend, getting some test fabric and trying them out. See which fits your wants for whatever project you might be working on at the time. Many dealerships offer owner's classes... you might want to look into that. They will be able to show samples and answer questions in real time. Coming from quilts to working with knits will be an adjustment. Knits are very easy to work with however, coming from the firm structure of quilting, you will want to be patient with yourself. I do recommend a class. While you can learn and do on your own, classes are extremely helpful. I hope this helps! -TB
Wery well ex plane thankyou❤
This was so helpful! Then I got stuck on the top threading lol anyone else having problems with the top thread? It’s so weird because the bottom thread sews perfectly (probably because it was one of the easier steps lol)
Hi! Thank you for reaching out to us with your problem. To better serve you, we need to request more information, so please reach out to us on our other social media platforms: Instagram (@singersewingcompany) and Facebook (facebook.com/SingerSewingCompany/). Thank you! -TB
I got the same problem, please tell me, do you found the solution?
comparing for example to the 3232 video, the setting of the bottom thread is different, because the position of the bobbin is different, i get it. although, shouldnt i lead the bottom thread out, before start sewing? thanks

I did not get a manual. I was told to download it. 😢
Pls explain how to fix stitch length, width & tension for zigzag ,Pico & straight stitc singer fashion mate 3343.. Plz plz
Hi! Our Customer Care team can answer any queries you have about your machine at 1-800-474-6437 or email them here: www.singer.com/email-us/. Thanks! - AC
i tried to straight stitch but when i took the fabric out from under the needle i couldn’t pull it it was stuck and i had to cut it, there was three strings i had to cut coming from the bobbin if that makes sense
We are so sorry to hear that you're having difficulty with your machine! Please follow this tip if you're having trouble with your fabric feeding:
It could be that the presser foot lifter has not been lowered before stepping on the foot controller. Lower the presser foot and resume sewing. We'd also suggest removing your bobbin and bobbin case, and making sure that there's no loose thread caught in your bobbin casing. Replace the bobbin case and bobbin once you're finished inspecting the area. Let us know if this basic troubleshooting worked for you. If not, we'd be happy to look more into your issue. 😊 -AR
I need to order new needles for my Fashion Mate 3342 but am confused, most of the time I am using cotton quilting fabric. Thanks
Hi Linda! Please use our Accessories Finder, which you can find here: www.singer.com/accessories-finder/. Just follow the prompts. Thank you! -TB
The manual is now online, mine didn't come with one. I wish it had a paper one. ☹
Hi! Thank you for your feedback. We did move our manuals to online, so we could be more green. Thank you! -TB
Merhaba bu makineyi kullanıyorum ama suan kumaşı cekmiyor nadıl düzeltebilirim
Hi I didn't get a instruction manual. How can I get one so I can know what the difference feet are for.?
Please follow this link for a list of manuals: www.singer.com/support. Thank you! -MM
Got tired of dragging my carpenter pants , I just went and bought me This machine, I have never used a sawing machine, but this video makes it look easy . I hope I can fix my pants . But my question is , if anybody is reading this comment, what kind of needle do I need to use or number.
Hello, we suggest using a size 90 or 100 denim needle. - KH
@@SingerSewingCompany thank you , I’ll look for them in stores . I did sew my pants, first time ever , not perfect but is good enough, since is a work pants 😂
Why stop and lift needle to reverse can’t you just press lever down to go back a bit then carry on 😳
How heave fabric can be used on this machine, is it good for denim, pleather, upholstery ?????
Hi! Thanks for your question. For heavier fabrics like denim, pleather and upholstery, we recommend our Heavy Duty machines. You can find them here: www.singer.com/machines/heavy-duty/. Thank you! -TB
I just bought mine and didn’t get a manual or a quick start guide at all… how can I get these
Please follow this link to find your Singer Sewing Machine manual:www.singer.com/support
Does this take a specific size needle?
Any flat back domestic sewing machine needle will work! The size will depend on the weight of the fabric you are using. Check out this needle guide for more info: Here is a link to a very helpful needle guide: res.cloudinary.com/singer-sewing/image/upload/v1620941592/Singer-Website-Library/Other/SINGER_Needle_Guide.pdf
Great video! I just bought this machine and there is no Manual in it. I guess I will need to download and print. Not fun!!!!
So I just unboxed my machine and I’m missing the take up lever, it’s just not on the machine. What should I do?
Hello, Danya. Please give our Customer Care team a call at 1-800-474-6437 or email them here: www.singer.com/email-us/. Thank you!
Do u hv to tie the tail at 5:02 or just leave it like tht ?
Once your bobbin is wound, you can just clip off the thread tail that you were holing. No need to tie or knot it. Happy sewing!
i can’t manage to fix the stiches i’m having the promblem woth the big messy loops on the back.
Hi! If you are getting looping underneath, it sounds like it is not being pulled into the upper tension. Re-thread and pay attention as you pass thru the tension disc. Also check your tension, make sure it's set in a normal setting and not too low.
I have this machine.what is mean 3442
Can this sewing machine sew slowly?
I believe you just press lighter on the foot pedal!
The sew easy foot is not included
Hi mam. Hmarri machine jam hai
Thanks
Thank you for watching! -TB
i just got my machine but the take up lever makes a very unpleasant noise. i feel like i’ve tried everything but i can’t figure out the problem :((

Pleaaaaaase What's the référence of the Needle 🙏🙏🙏🙏
How do you no where to put the tension at?
For further assistance, please contact our Customer Care Team at 1-800-474-6437 or email them here: www.singer.com/email-us/. Thank you!
Have just brought this model. Not happy. Cannot get the correct tension. Straight stitch is uneven. I have set tension knob on 5, 4 , 3 and even 2 and still the stitches are not right. Zig zag stitch is even worse. I have retreaded both top and bobbin several times so I know this is correct. Suggestions would be welcome.

this is portable so it means it is rechargeable am i right? please tell me if I'm wrong
Hi Regina! This is not a chargeable machine. Portable just means its easy to travel with/move around. There is a cord that comes with the machine that needs to be plugged into a power outlet. Thank you! -TB
we just bought this machine. after winding the bobbin, and threading the machine, why doesn't this video next show how to draw up the bobbin thread through the base plate? it's shown on page 16 of the paper instructions. so why isn't that step shown here? i'm 'corn-fused'. 🤔
Hi! Thanks for this feedback. We'll let our education team know!
What are the differences between fashion mate 3342 and 3333.
Hi! The SINGER Fashion Mate 3342 and Fashion Mate 3333 are very similar. The main differences are that the 3342 has more stitch applications, more built-in stitches, a one-step buttonhole and adjustable stitch width. If you go to www.singer.com, you can compare products by selecting the ones you want to compare, then clicking 'Compare'. Thank you! -TB
I did not get a manual or the other sheet she showed with my machine.
I did not get a manual either. Had to download it online.
can this machine do jeans sewing?
Hi! Yes, it can! Just be sure to use a denim needle when sewing with denim. Thank you! -TB
I have a question

I can’t thread the needle! What am I doing wrong?
Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear you're having problems threading your machine. I'd be happy to provide some insight. 😊 Are you struggling with getting the thread through the eye of the needle, or are you having trouble threading the upper thread through your machine? -AR
@@SingerSewingCompany i’m having trouble putting the thread through the eye of the needle using the automatic needle threader.
I’m putting the thread through the prongs and it isn’t automatically threading it.
Les explications en Français serait il possibles

The tutorial is great and easy to follow.This machine does not sew layers of fabric well.It has an awful knocking sound.I changed needles and rethreaded,no changr.Then I exchanged machine with another 3342 and same problem.I am really disappointed.
HI Vicky! Thank you for the feedback. I'm sorry to hear about your machine and negative experience you have had with it.

I have a new singer that has no English instruction book with it for 2 yrs. Had l known this, l would never had bought it......
Here is the link to the 3342 manual in English: manuals.singer.com/Manuals/RetrievePDF/778. Hope this helps!
How do i fix my threader, it seems like the thing that gets the thread is dislocated 😥 my machine is same with the video
We are so sorry to hear that you're having trouble with your machine. Is the thing you're referring to your bobbin? Your bobbin is the tiny cylinder that your thread is wound around. Once confirmed, I would be happy to troubleshoot with you. 😊 -AR
@@SingerSewingCompany hello, no it's not. It's the tool that helps the thread get to hole of the needle. The needle threader on my machine is not functioning anymore I think because the hook that gets the thread to be able to pass through the needle hole is broken.
Nice video but kill the music, pleeeeease!
Good video but keep in mind it was made in 2016. Current purchases DO NOT include quick start brochure or the manual. It is all digital. That may be a difficulty for those who don't have experience with downloads and/or TH-cam.
