Unique Features of the 14T968DC
Auto Tension System
The innovative tension system on the 14T968DC makes setting the tension for different stitch functions completely effortless. Select the stitch by letter on the stitch selection knob and it sets the tension automatically. One step and you are ready to do the most amazing stitches that you could ever imagine.
Lower Looper Auto Threaders
The Singer 14T968DC serger is equipped with auto lower and chain stitch looper threaders to make it much easier to thread the lower threads on your serger. No more having to turn the serger on its side to thread. This makes those tight hard to reach areas a thing of the past
Differential Feed System
Wondering what differential feed is? Differential feed is a two part feed dog system that allows you to change the speed of the front feed dog independently from the back feed dog. By setting the differential feed to a faster setting this allows the machine to feed stretchy material into the serger faster than it feeds the material out. This helps to keep the material from stretching and casuing a lettacing or rippling affect. Do the opposite and slow the front feed dog down and it actually will stretch a light weight material a small amount keeping it from puckering. The differential feed also helps when you are wanting to gather material.
Adjustable Stitch Width
If you need the stitch narrow or wide the adjustable stitch width knob on the Singer 14T968DC is on the outside of the machine and very easy to see and turn. Stitch width is adjustable from 4.5 mm to 7.5 mm
Color Coded Threading System
The Singer 14T968DC has a fully color coded threading system. Just follow the thread color on the tension all the way through to the end and you will never make a threading mistake. Also included with your New 14T968DC is a full color threading instruction pamplet. This walks you through the threading of your serger step by step.
Built-In Roll Hem
The Singer New Singer 14T968DC Serger has a built-in roll hem needle plate. You no longer have to take the needle plate off and switch to a differnet plate to do the roll hem. Just pull the white roll hem lever to the R position on the needle plate and you are done.
Automatic and Adjustable Presser Foot Pressure
The New Singer 14T968DC is equipped with a very unique presser foot pressure system. When you set the pressure knob to N it sets the pressure for you but if you want to lighten the pressure when sewing very delicate fabrics one turn of the knob and you are in full control. The pressure adjustment is adjustable from 1 (light presser foot pressure for thin materials) to 5 ( heavy pressure for fuzzy or thicker hard to feed materials).
Tension Release System
The 14T968DC is just like you regular sewing machine. When you lift the presser foot the tension releases allowing the threads to pull through the tensions easily. This is a big plus when you are threading your machine. It insures that the thread is pulled into the tension so your stitches look their best.

Note: Custom Made to Fit Around the Freearm or Flatbed Surface of Your Brand and Model Sewing, Embroidery and Serger Machines. If your sewing machine drop in bobbin (top load) cover (applies to metal covers not to plastic covers) does not come straight up and off the needle plate (if it slides toward the operator) or if your bobbin case is underneath the top of the arm (front load), you will need to remove the extension table to replace a bobbin.
Sew Steady Tables are Custom Made to Fit your Model Like a Glove! Do you really need or have the extra space for a full sized cabinet with drawers? Or just more working surface around your machine?
The Sew Steady Portable Table extends the sewing surface area of your table top sewing machine. It supports fabric for even stitch quality. Tight fitting NO GAP design since tables are specific to machine model. It has easily adjustable snap-on-off legs for easy storage and travel.
A flat sewing surface provides you with the most control when sewing. If you don't have your machine mounted in a cabinet, using a Sew Steady Portable Table is the next best thing. Take it to class so you have a flat surface there, too. Adjustable legs can be removed for transport and storage. Each table is custom cut from 1/4" Plexiglas to fit your particular machine.

SEW STEADY TABLE DESIGN STANDARDS:
All of our tables are designed based on having the accessory tray removed from the machine. We position the machine to have the needle around 5”-7” from the front edge of the table. The table encompasses the entire freearm/flatbed sewing surface (does not wrap to the far-right of the machine). If your machine free arm slopes downward and has contours we may choose to design the table to hover over the slope to ensure a perfectly level, smooth sewing surface. If you have a top loading bobbin and a sloped machine this may affect your use. Please contact us in advance at SewSteady.com for other options. If you are purchasing a Deluxe Table then the holes do not need to be in line with the needle to make circles.
Please indicate the Dimensions of the Sew Steady extension table in inches:
Left to Right :________ Front to Back:_________
Make of Machine: ______________ Model of Machine: _______________
The standard position of the table placement front to back is to have the needle sit about 5-7” from the front of the table. Will this work for you? ___________
(If no, please indicate in measurements of 1/16”-increments how far from the front of the table you wish to have the front of your skinny free-arm on your machine sit)
The standard position of the table from right to left is to have the table wrap around the free arm of the machine only. Our goal is to give the sewer the most sewing space from the free arm to the left of the needle. Will this work for you? _____________
(If no, please indicate in 1/16”-increments how much Table you’d like to the left of the left/tip of your free arm to the left edge of the table)
The standard position of the table is to have the sewer positioned in front of the machine, with the needle at the left, the handwheel at the right. Will this work for you? ______________
(If no, do you plan to sew using Free Motion Technique, which would prefer you to sew at the tip of the machine, changing the placement of the cutout to be on the wider end?)
Our tables typically only wrap around the free arm of a machine, they do not typically wrap the full length to the right. Do you need your table to wrap as far to the right side of the machine as possible? __________
The table is designed to never be resting on or touching the machine. You may have to adjust the levelers on the feet to make sure the table is perfectly level with the top of the free arm in order to sit as designed. The table is designed to fit around the free arm with the accessory tray always being removed. We do make some tables that work for Embroidery and Sergers. Please let us know if you are interested in these options. We are happy to accommodate other special requests as well with proper measurements and pictures if needed. Our goal is to get you the right table the first time. If you decide you do not like the placement requested the first time, there is a $50 fee for a 2nd revision

Singer and the Sewing Machine A Capitalist Romance! Rare Book that was Out Of Print

Features
A provocative look into the life of Isaac Merritt Singer, both his public glory and private controversy as one of America's industrialist icons in the 1800's. Hard Bound Book
Women, booze, illegitimate children, fraud, bigamy, 19th-century capitalism, and the emergence of an empire . . . . These words describe the life of Isaac Merritt Singer. Although widely regarded as the inventor of the sewing machine, Singer actually modified an existing machine and marketed it to an America eager for the new tools of the Machine Age. His genius was in the advertising, service with a smile, installment plans, and marketing gimmicks he used to get the sewing machine in homes and sweatshops all over the world. This fascinating and detailed biography provides an insightful and provocative look at the American entrepreneur, unraveling a complex web of personal ambition, fame, fortune, and the attainment of the American Dream. Illustrated.
The sewing machine was invented, or so he claimed, by Isaac Merritt Singer. In 1905 and 1906, long after his death, his eldest son, William Singer, retailed what he knew of Isaac’s life in a series of letters to his half-sister Winnaretta, by then Princesse de Polignac. Being thirty-one years older than Winnaretta, William had had considerably more acquaintance with their father. He was, however, rather reticent. ‘It would deeply interest you to know all his wonderful and very unusual history, but it better not be on paper. When we meet I will tell you if you wish,’ he wrote.
So begins the story of Isaac Singer and his wonderful sewing machine, his several wives, many mistresses and twenty-four children. Beginning on the semi-wild frontier of upstate New York, Singer’s story ends in a Torquay palace, taking in en route his canary-yellow coach with nursery compartment and orchestra, the invention of hire purchase and interchangeable parts, high(ish) life in New York and Paris, and Isadora Duncan …
‘Marvelous … That such a spectacular complex of history, mechanics, and human comedy should have gone so long without a chronicler is astonishing … A treasure’ – Eve Auchincloss, Washington Post
‘Thanks to Ruth Brandon’s brilliant book, surely the best by far to be written … about any capitalist entrepreneur or his enterprises, [Singer's] wonderful history is on paper at last.’ Alistair Forbes, Spectator
Singer sewing machines, Coats & Clark thread, and Schmetz needles, the trifecta of sewing essentials for over 100 years each. As well written by Rita Farro as a NYT article.
