PPE is a GOOD thing! I have a pair of leather gloves near my iron for when I am ironing. Often, I only need to wear the right-hand glove to hold the iron. With my iron being kept over a fire between uses, it can easily become VERY HOT!!!!! Yes, I have burnt my hand on a VERY HOT iron before. It is not always too hot to touch, but, I have adopted a policy of ALWAYS handling it with a glove at all time, so that I do NOT scream about it being 'TOO ********** HOT!!!!' Also hand sewing: I do a fair amount of hand sewing. Basically, if it is not a straight stitch, it will be hand sewn.

I spent weeks deciding. going back and forth. Eventually I used Microsoft Copilot AI and put in all the specifications I wanted, the price range i was comfortable with, the accessories that were must haves. Especially a walking foot, which is like 60 dollars on its own. The list kept getting narrower and narrower, and finally I decided on the Brother CS7000x. I think it'll be perfect. And 230 is such a reasonable price for all that it comes with. It said it's for beginners, but i think it can do nearly anything. I may not even need to buy a serger down the road. It comes with everything i need for any kind of project i might want to do. (except a rolled hem foot, which is really inexpensive and i could get one down the road if i want. )

I totally agree!! I spend a lot more time cutting out my patterns than sewing. By the time I'm done, I don't even want to sew! Worse, when I walk away from a project for weeks because I'm overwhelmed by the cutting, I get inspired for another project and rinse and repeat. I have more cut-out projects than completed ones. Eventually I'll learn to love the process!

That’s funny. 😂 I do that too sometimes…the thrill of the new project only to later be squashed by the cutting…a much less exciting part of the process. 🙃

For those with MCS or are sensitive to smells, be aware that Fray Check has a LINGERING CHEMICAL SMELL. I used to use it all the time, so I went back to it when I recently started sewing again and wanted to make myself a purse using outdoor fabric, which frays a LOT. For days after the project was finished, the Fray Check smell was strong. My chemical sensitivities weren't as prevalent as they are now, which is probably why it didn't bother me before (or else they've changed the formula). At any rate, Fray Block works much better for me and does not leave that lingering chemical smell.

I found that overlock takes a lot longer than using a serger. Although when I only had one serger and didn't want to change thread colors on my serger i use the overlock.
@ByTinymite
@ByTinymite 2 ай бұрын
That doesn’t surprise me. If you have one, then it is probably easier to use it for that instead of the overlock setting. However, as I do not have a serger, the overlock setting works really great for me. :)

Thank you for letting me know about this. I did some research, and there's a little bit of a gray area but not much. The tone I have used isn't the exact same tone. However, I think it would still violate the rule because someone could be confused...and it sounds like that is the main point of the rule. I will see if I can figure out how to edit it out. If not, I'll take it down.

Oh I’m so glad now you know 😃 I’m sure that will be helpful. I have a few ideas about this L-shaped thing, but it’s hard to know without seeing it. Is it a maybe a seam jumper? Or maybe a seam guide? Or is it an actual preset foot? I’m so curious!

@@ByTinymite ...well it's next to the presser feet slotted in their appropriate spots, feet marked as A-B-C-D-E-G (no F). It has it's own slot on top, marked as L. It is L shaped, as I mentioned. 2 1/2 × 1 inch. I'll probably need to search for an old Janome manual online, to figure it out.

@@singmysong1167 Don't know if you got your answer yet, but I bet it's the same with my Janome. It's an attachment for quilting. You slide the long end in behind the A foot on the actual shank of the sewing machine (the stick bit that holds the needle and presser foot). There's a screw on the shank to secure it. (Double check with the manual) The short part of the L then lines up on your fabric. You use it to sew repeated parallel lines - the L sits 'in the ditch' created by the previous line. :) Obviously it has uses beyond quilting. I used it to keep lines of shirring parallel, and I've also used it when I needed a line 5 cm in from the edge of my fabric, but I didn't want to roll up the edge of the fabric just to see the seam guide on the needle plate.

Fray Check will wash out. In some fabrics it will wash out after a few washings. In others it will last a little longer. It must be reapplied. I have found pinking an edge does not stop fraying. It may slow it. I did not know this but a pinked edge will let the fabric go around a corner like bias cut fabric. I appreciate your info. .

Great video. I’ve been sewing for almost a decade but I still enjoyed this. I currently use 2 main machines; a Singer Stylist and a Juki TL 18. I use the Juki more but it’s straight stitch only so I still use my Singer for lighter materials and zigzag stitches. I liked this video and subscribed 😊
