I love how neat and how well you explain how to do things 😩 I just hate the fact that you haven’t posted in two years

Awesome video! Good tips on doing curves. I've learned something again. I've been sewing on and off for probably 30 years and I've never had a teacher. I'm learning lots of things from you now. I wanted to comment on when you started sewing. No one has ever taught me that you don't start at the very edge of the fabric. I used to come forward and then try to reverse it immediately and then try to come forward. And as you know, nine times out of 10 I'm going to botch up my material doing that. So now I know start on the inside of a little bit, go backwards and then go forwards. Wow! My mind is blown. I know these little things seem like trivial things to you, but I'm learning so much today.

Ooh that's a fancy sewing machine. I have a Kenmore 12 stitch from the 1970s. It's a heavy duty sewing machine and I think it has a stitch that's similar to yours. It just doesn't have the second seam. It's a regular overlock stitch I think. I'm excited to try what I've learned.

Another fantastic video. I've been sewing for years but it's just by the seat of my pants. Lol I'm getting ready to sew some sleeves that I had to cut off some t-shirts for a lady I work for and every time I sew knit I worry so much. I watched another video and got the right needle put in my sewing machine but I had no idea what that foot was in my drawer. I have acquired lots of sewing feet and things from either a friend or mother-in-law or my mother. LOL thank you thank you thank you! I told my daughter she needed to start watching you as well. She is a new sewer. ❤

So you only need to stabilize one side of the seam? The back piece?

Which machine do you perfer to use and why?

What's happens when the needle is cutting the fabric when I'm sewing?

Thank you!!

AT LAST! I must have watched 10 to 15 videos, trying to understand why I couldn't get my needle threader to work. Yours was the perfect solution, especially with the close ups. A thousand thank yous.

So helpful, thank you!

Lovely video, save my LIFE!

Great video, should I use this when sewing spandex type material?

Does the snip not work for the double notches?

Hallelujah! Thank you! I was having problems and now it works and I have sewn my first buttonholes! Thank you!

very helpful video ! thanks from Paris !

Thank you.

My machine saws one side but then won’t sew back down the other side! Any ideas, please? It just stops and sews a stitch in one place

Thank I am new to sewing with my Janome sexist machine

This method did work but i will be staying with the 15sec steam press method as found elsewhere on KZbin. Why? Because it took over 20mins to fuse my jacket facings, might be great for small areas but larger ones that take 10 to 12 iron moves to cover its a no-no and my back agrees 😮

Good video but you dont give dimensions

Hi! May I know what kind of stitch you use for the neckline before overlocking it? (doesn't look like lightning stitch to me 😅). Thanks for your great tutorial, btw. 👍👍

Great video. I now know how to get fabric under the foot, and how to finish and take it off. Thank you.❤

Great ❤😂

Thanks for the tip about the pins! This is my first time doing buttonholes on m second-hand machine, although I've used it a lot. I notice on your first buttonhole, and on mine, the second side has narrower stitches! How can I avoid that?

Super helpful video, thank you so much!!

Thank you for such an easy to follow tutorial.

Thanks for this clear, concise video and all the helpful tips.

Great video and super helpful tips. Thanks!

This was soooo helpful thank you x

is there ever a time when you shouldnt use a walking foot?

Those inner corners blew my mind, thank you so much for sharing! ♥

I am thrilled that you selected Couture Sewing Techniques as one of your favorite books. Thank you. Claire

Thank you thank you! I finally get this concept!!!!!

How much per meter size

I've ran into this multiple times in patterns and this helps explain it so well!

Thank you Alison great as always. If you are using an overlocker to sew the shoulders would you put the tape below the seam allowance?

I have all the discs and feet with mine over 70+ stitches plus width and length adjustment and reverse,it can do anything a computerized machine will do.

Hi, someone said to me that the stretchiest (not the bias) part of the material should go across the body, so the cross grain. Is this correct please?

Can be used ij summers too??

Great idea, I’m using this tomorrow!

Thank you so so much for this simple yet detailed explanation!! I’ve been struggling to understand this terminology for a while, this video is a lifesaver.

This is the first time I’ve seen your KZbin channel. I have already liked and subscribed! I have a beautiful 306K in two-tone fawn and brown. It’s the older sister of the 319K. I have been able to find and purchase the full set of Fashion Discs. There are over thirty of them! My 306 travelled over 760 kilometres (about 472 miles) by regular post to reach me and required some repairs when it arrived eg retiring, soldering of motor brackets, upgrade to lighting etc). I bought a large bottle of Singer sewing machine oil and after cleaning out decades of dust and grime, oiled it until everything moved so smoothly that it was like new. Now it sews so quietly and smoothly and it has unbelievable strength compared to the mid-80’s Husqvarnas I was using. If you are able to buy a set of fashion discs (the flat ones NOT the top hats), combining them with your 319’s piano keys will give you hundreds of stitches with which to experiment. Look on eBay. That’s where I found my big set of discs.

Please for people who are using imperial use both weights. Please.

Did you use a straight stitch to sew up the shoulders having seen the ribbon on with zigzag?

Very good tutorial. Clear & calm. Enjoyed very much thanks. Su. Queensland Australia

You need to let us hear how loud or how quiet the machine sews thanks 😊

Thank you so much! I was so disappointed when my collar stood out; going to try this out.

Thankyou

Sometimes when I use a stretch needle or a ball point/Jersey needle I still have skip stitches. I usually end having to use stabilizer.

I appreciate this tutorial! I'm extremely new to sewing and want to make sure I understand the end correctly before I start messing about with my clothes: Once all the pins are in place, do you flip the garment inside out and sew it inside-out so the seams are on the inside?
