How can anyone sew on a machine without fingernails? I keep my left index fingernail really long. If I see over something it's going to be my nail not my finger. My grandmother taught me that. She sewed for Farber Brothers during WW2 and sewed thru her finger up to the cuticle. 😳 Just thinking about it makes me 😬

Have you made any videos (or do you have classes) on drafting a full shawl collar onto a boxy jacket. I am attempting to design and sew a quilted jacket in the style of Lady Lancaster's Aunt Ethel. I wonder if you have seen her work. Absolutely stunning garments.

Thanks so much. Question: I have heard that water and steam are bad for silk fabric, and that you should try not to iron them. Is that true? I noticed you pressed it with steam. Perhaps the organza is a little more sturdy? My iron has a silk setting but I would never iron silk unless someone I trusted told me it was okay 😂
@kdknyc10 күн бұрын
Silk is a protein fiber so can take water and pressing. There are certain kinds of silk fabric that do better with a dry iron, such as silk satin, gazar, or tafetta. The key is to test the fabric with pressing before you begin your project. If you use the silk setting on your iron you will be fine.

The second time reinforces the roll of the fabric and keeps the hem from falling off the edge. And yes, as someone who works with my hands for a living, I sometimes injure my hands.
