It should work just fine for that. I would not hesitate to use it for the same thing.

I also sew - the board bends a bit. I'd be reluctant to apply too much pressure. I use my regular board that is set up in my sewing room.

i will say yes because i used the fabric to reupholster two metal arm chairs and it worked well. i also made a throw pillow with no problem.

Most definitely. I use this as a sewing table, there is room for a chair. The leg set up is similar to that of an ironing board. Now, I don't iron sitting down but I do use a chair when I sew.

I have not used on sewing machine, but do not see why not. both are small motors and it is make for that, and good amount of oil in the bottle.

If this will be your only sewing machine, I wouldn't recommend it for dressmaking, as it only does straight stitch. Therefore you cannot do buttonholes, blind hemstitch, overcasting,etc. I would definitely use it for home dec purposes like draperies and slipcovers because of the larger size and higher speed.

Probably just about any foam will help absorb the vibrations from the sewing machine, but if the machine loses firm contact with the table or floor, it might become unstable and affect the sewing.

The SINGER 160 Anniversary Limited Edition sewing machine can be used to sew garment weight leather. Use a SINGER Leather needle, which has a wedge point designed for sewing leather. For sewing the type of leather such as that used for belts, etc., an industrial machine is recommended.

I use this to hold my toolbox on a wood table and it works well. This product would work perfectly for holding your sewing machine on a folding table. Just make sure you have the right dimensions or you will end up using 2 pieces instead of just 1.

It depends on how creatiive you are. I suppose you could attempt to shirr on a folded edge and therefore make a whole piece of cloth, or yardage shirred, but remember this little tool works best on very light weight and shirr fabrics so it may not work on the fold, but you should try it.

I have not had occasion to use it to sew patches on a leather jacket. I have a heavy duty Singer electric machine, and have not found anything the Janome can't match. You would need a strong needle and a good treadle cabinet and belt. Sorry I'm not of more help.

Yes if they aren't used much. It is a good song velcro.... But not meant for sewing. Hope that helps!

Check your instruction manual and also take a look at the needles that came with your machine. If you're using a standard sewing machine needle (which I'm guessing you are) then the Schmetz Jean & Denim needle will fit and work with your machine. I use the Jean & Denim needle in my Janome and it works like a charm. You might want to slow down the speed on your stitching if you're sewing heavy fabric. Good Luck!

Hi, I bought this type of converter for my family oversea. I didn't use it, myself, and I don't know if it will work on sewing machine. Thank you

I wish I could advise you. I've got a Janomi, so I can only say how it works on my machine. You might want to ask a sewing machine technician (someone who fixes sewing machines) if it would work for you. Good luck!
