I am trying to sew something with my pretty basic ikea machine. The fabric is a polyester mix satin backed crepe, dress weight.
The machine keeps glitching, the whole thing jams and there are multiple loops through the fabric at that point. Grr it is so annoying as I need to finish this dress and don’t fancy sewing the whole thing by hand. Am I doing something obviously wrong ? I grew up using an old Victorian hand machine , or hand sewing, so this sort of thing is a mystery to me.
