sewing isn't all just sitting at the machine and zipping fabrics through.
there are maintenance chores to be done on a sewing machine to keep it in good running order and little clean ups constantly needed to maintain a creative space one can actually move around in.
i have developed at least one good machine maintenance habit: i clean out the lint regularly.
i don't change needles often enough or oil the machine as much as i probably should, but i do have a habit of swiping out all the lint each time i change the bobbin. i keep the lint brush close by and use it whenever i have the bobbin case open.
what are your best and worse habits?
how do you make them part of your sewing routine?
I hardly even change my needle :) I do try to clean the lint out often, but 'often' varies, lol.
