Can you show an example of how single fold bias tape is used?

I've been sewing for 20 years and i didn't know what those plastic things were for lol. I usually use my start-stopper (piece of fabric to conserve the thread, begin and end sewing with it) and fold it if needed

I'm a seamtress, I can see just about anything....except swimwear...my machine eats the fabric....the fabric slips and slides all over the place, and when I try to cut with a rotary blade, the fabric gets pushed i to my cutting mat and gets stuck. Grrrr.
@SeamworkVideo
@SeamworkVideo Күн бұрын
I hear you! Swimsuit fabric can be tricky to work with. Sounds like your cutting mat has a lot of deep grooves in it from use and like your rotary blade needs a refresh.

Does the elastic thread need to be pulled taught in the bobbin?
@SeamworkVideo
@SeamworkVideo 2 күн бұрын
You should wind the bobbin gently by hand rather than by machine. If the bobbin is wound by machine, it'll stretch the elastic thread too much.

One more thing: Get a sewing machine with a steel interior and mechanism. Springer is making them with plastic, and they wear out very fast and need servicing very frequently.

The most difficult problem I have with my serger is that I am LEFT handed and there are days when I just can’t thread the darn thing, because some days I can’t get in there properly since I’m at the WRONG angle. Right handed world; left handed problems.

@ my serger came with a nice set of bent tweezers. I’m fairly ambidextrous, but there are just some times when I just can’t get it threaded (I’m getting older and my hands don’t always cooperate 😊)properly and, of course, the machine doesn’t work properly. So I put it aside, wait until I’m in a better frame of mind, and try again. The positive? I really understand how the machine works now!

I needed a cutting table, plenty of work space, and some storage for my rulers and templates, and didn’t want to spend too much to fulfill the purpose. I watched a video by JefftheBerninaguy, and he suggested checking Husky’s work benches at HD which didn’t cost an arm and a leg (like some furniture can). Glad I did. Not only does the work bench provide a perfect fit for my cutting mat/work space/and two long drawers for the rulers, it’s manually adjustable for height (don’t have to worry about power outages or repairing a motor!) and looks nice with a wood top that’s easy to clean. Wheels are provided so I can even move it around as a mobile sewing work station! Prices vary by the length, but a 52” is very reasonably priced. Your list of sewing items was very interesting, especially about the clamps. Very handy when “sandwiching” quilt tops and batting over a large flat surface.

Interfacing silk can be tricky for sure! Try just applying pressure when pressing, not ironing back and forth. That should prevent bubbles and distortion.
