Learn to clean and maintain your home sewing machine to ensure years of use and enjoyment! Seriously, it's gross in there. You really ought to clean it out.
I vacuum my sewing room every week, then fit my adaptor and vacuum my overlocker too. I have marked my calendar to oil it every month. This may make me sound an angel, but that's to make up for my evil past!
I had my Elna Lotus from age 16 to 32 without ever cleaning or servicing it, then my Riccar did 22 years without any TLC! Since I got my Janome sewing machine and overlocker I have turned over a new leaf, but then they do get a lot more use than my old machines did!
