Any suggestions for lowering the noise when i turn on my brother machine?! Sounds horrible but store states it is normal.

I've never heard of it being really noisy. Mine sort of whirrs for a sew seconds but then go quiet, sorry I can't help but thanks for reaching out. Maybe someone else will see this and be able to help. Good luck

Just curious would overlocker help me with sewing small size clothes for dolls? Rn chiffon or brocade absolute nightmare to sew on my plain & simple sewing machine. Makes hems too thick for tiny dolls. I’m debating to invest into serger but I never used it & hardly can imagine how it’s for small projects. My seam allowances is so small can it cut something like 3-4mm of fabric off? Thx
@TrishNewberyDesign26 күн бұрын
Personal opinion only - no - chiffon is slippery enough on a regular machine - it would be a nightmare with an overlocker on doll sized clothes. You can set up the overlocker to do a narrow 3-4 mm stitch and it would cut off the extra fabric in one go but I'm kind of thinking it would only be good for hems - which is a big cost just for a hem. If you do a lot of regular (human sized) sewing with chiffon fabric the O/L would be handy - for narrow seams I do a 3-4 mm then turn and plain stitch. Up to you whether you want to spend the money - good luck

Nice. I'm only just figuring out how to use a serger and this is very helpful. I never liked having to use a twin needle for hemming jersey. This looks way more convenient.

Is it pinnable? Like can you put pins on it? Also, if it is pinnable, can you like make pleats with it with it for downs? (Please respond)
@TrishNewberyDesign26 күн бұрын
It's not really pinnable like a tailors dummy is. Its like hard plastic with a light felt-ish feel coating on top. I do pin mine but you have to angle them along the form, not into the form

So, with this hack, you don't really need a regular sewing machine anymore?
@TrishNewberyDesign6 ай бұрын
Well, depending what you sew. If you sew knits/stretch fabric you could get away with just this but I would recommend at least a basic sewing machine - buttonholes, twin needles, and of course woven fabrics all with a straight sewer machine

If you are sewing knit/stretch fabric hems with a twin needle foot, often its handy to have a second spool holder (they use 2 threads - twin needle)

@TrishNewberyDesign6 ай бұрын
Just using this for, say around necklines as a single, or even double layer it is good. With what you are suggesting I think those wadding layers would push out. You could try a wider binder but it would be a case of try and see how you go

When I use my Overlocker with the blade engaged it cuts off fabric as it supposed to. I want to know When I am making clothes am I cutting the seam allowance? I just got my over locker so I am very new to this area of sewing. Any advice would be appreciated. 😊
@TrishNewberyDesign6 ай бұрын
OK, so this is a big answer. Sorry if I ramble. When you have a pattern to sew it will have a seam allowance in it (sometimes they don't and you have to add it but it is pattern specific).Find the seam allowance info for what you are sewing. In commercial garment construction the overlocker is supposed to cut off the fray edge only. SO for my patterns, if it is a knit/stretch garment the seam allowance is 6mm, 1/4". When you sew it using the overlocker the width is normally set to 6mm, 1/4"so you don't want to cut off fabric, just the fray edge. (It takes practice). Now say you had an old fashioned pattern from some of the Big 4 companies (Butterick/Vougue etc). Say if you were sewing a woven pattern. They had seam allowances sometimes of 1.5cm. You would sew this with your plain sewing machine at 1.5cm, then to tidy up the edge you could serge/overlock 5mm. You would be left with a 1cm seam. My woven patterns I make with a 1cm seam so you just overlock the fray off the edge. I hope this makes sense. Have fun sewing.

Try "flossing" the tension disk and then re-thread. My guess is its threaded in the incorrect recommended order - from left to right 1,2,3,4. The threading order is 3,4,1,2. Good luck
