Need my sewing machine threaded

$30

West Wollongong NSW, Australia

11th May 2026

My eyesight is not the best, even with glasses and a magnifying glass and I struggle to thread the cotton through the eyehole of the needle on the machine. I get mose upset with myself because I cant see what Im doing. Would someone with much much better eyesight be able to come and thread it for me? I have a Brother Sewing Machine and for the life I dont know what model it is, but the Operation Manual book that I have is for the Product Code: 888-V14 Someone with sewing experience please and has been sewing for a long time and also knows Brother sewing machines.

Lovely to deal with and exactly what I needed. I struggle with my eyesight and threading a sewing machine needle is just beyond me — she sorted it quickly and was an absolute pleasure. 100% recommend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
