Sewing Time!!!

A few years ago Marty got his Grandmama's sewing machine, after she had lived out her nine lives. Marty's Grandmama taught him to sew when he was a kitten, and when Marty got the sewing machine he hit up his local Jo-Ann's and stocked up on fabric for projects. That was quite a few years ago, and Marty finally found some time to tackle a project. But first he had to get the sewing machine in pristine working order.

Marty was hoping he could just turn on the machine and go, but no.

First, a little dusting.

Checking underside of the machine. Yep it's dusty.

Real dusty. Marty needed a little help.

Some parts needed a little oiling. Marty could do that part all by himself.
Good thing he was wearing a mask too or else he would have got splash back in his eyes.

Alright it works! Go bobbin go!

Well now, here's a conundrum, how does the thread go here?

Time for more help.

Hooray! The puzzle was solved, now time to make something fancy.
