    Hi, I love the wallet you made from jeans. Great idea for "bloke" gifts.

    Tenth Anniversary Combo Breaker
    Hello everyone :wave:, I hope I'm in the right place. i was given a sewing machine a few years ago which i only used to make a couple of very basic cushions.

    i would really love to learn how to use it properly but unfortunately i cant find any user instructions online, only other people asking the same question. the Brother website doesn't recognise the model.

    so, does anyone know where i can get / download them from please, it is a BROTHER XL-4041 ?

    thank you for any help & advice you have xx

    Hi :D I just had a look to see what the machine looked like and it prob would be very similar to most basic brother machines
    I have a Brother and could email you a copy of my instruction booklet if you PM me, it might give some idea of your machine :D


    HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mooloo :bdaycake:

    Many Happy Returns.
    Let us know how the Spa day went - I am off for one next Friday - postponed 60th present. The problem has been getting all three Daughters here at the same time. Two are teachers- now in same county- used to be one in the north so had different term times. My other Daughter is a Doctor and moved house last year.

    I have a Brother machine but it is at my Son's flat. I bought it for a card making group. Couldn't tell you what model it is......not keen on it.....I am still in love with my Singer Futura that I bought in 1978.....it died!
