Hey :) I love your video, it‘s so helpful. Just one quick question: How long did the calibration process take? I won‘t be able to just leave my projector on the table so I would have to calibrate it every time I use it. But if it doesn‘t take too long then I‘ll probably get one. ;)
@teresamahoney12 күн бұрын
@@Narwal955 thank you for watching! Glad it could be helpful! The first time calibrating took a little longer only because I was still figuring out how to use the Pattern Projector site, but now that I know what to do, it’s a matter of a couple minutes. Should be quick after you do it once, especially if you’ll be putting the projector in the same place each time. Hope that helps! Let me know what you end up deciding!

this was so helpful, I was on the fence on getting a projector just because I wasn't sure which one would be suitable for my sewing room and wasn't even sure how to set everything up. I also upcycle clothes as well and am just starting out with my business, so thanks for sharing this info. Also I had purchased the ditto when it first came out but ended up returning it just because the price was ridiculous and the fact that the subscription model was a let down. I would've liked if they somehow aloud you to support other indie pattern makers so that was a deal breaker for me.
@teresamahoneyАй бұрын
So glad it was helpful! ♥️ Ya the Ditto price tag seemed really high when it first launched. It’s cheaper now but, knowing I can DIY a projector setup for even less money and have no monthly subscription, it’s hard to justify the price. They do now allow a “BYOP” option (bring your own pattern) but you still need to use third party apps to stitch them together (like the one I show in the video) if the pattern doesn’t have an A0 or pattern projector option. And yes that can unfortunately rule out some indie pattern options. Curious to know what you end up doing pattern projector-wise! And yay upcycling! So fun! 🤩

Is it possible to do multiple sizes instead of just one? Just one doesn’t work for me.

Do you mean project multiple sizes? For example, project then cut a size medium. Then, project and cut a size large? If so, yes! Projector patterns will let you project all the sizes included in the pattern.

Hey Teresa, nice video showing your process. I didn’t know PP could help with gaps! That was super helpful. I have a UST Epson 475. One question I have - when you go to cut the fabric, do you trace first, then cut, or just go for it and cut with the projection lines? I was finding that the fabric can shift around a little. Curious as to how you do the next step of getting the pieces cut. Thanks for a great video
@teresamahoney2 ай бұрын
@@trishpowell8160 So glad you found the closing gaps tip helpful! Re: cutting, I’m still experimenting with what works best for me, but so far just pressing with my hand firmly while using my rotary cutter gets the job done (and if the fabric moves, I just reposition it according to the projected lines). But weights are also a good option to keep fabric in place (literally anything heavy: can of chili, rock, paper weight, etc.) I’ve also heard of some people using a piece of sheet metal under their cutting mat and using magnets! But it also depends on what shape you’re cutting and what fabric. Could also try a smaller rotary for smaller curves for a little more precision and less movement? Hope that’s helpful! Let me know what ends up working for you!

how do you get the loop turner to work i have one but idk how to use it?
@teresamahoney4 ай бұрын
I had to test it several times before getting it to work! It was especially difficult when using this particular fabric, which is more prone to fraying. They key to using a loop turner is poking the little flappy metal part through the fabric, puncturing a small hole. Then closing the clasp around the fabric and basically pulling it through inside out. The skinnier the strap you're trying to make, the more challenging it will be. But I recommend practicing on a few scraps to get a feel for it! Once you figure it out, it will be very satisfying!

@arlina133 ай бұрын
You want to make the opening slightly wider for the initial pull through as well as trimming down the seam allowance in this section maybe 1.5cm from the top - sorry I use the metric system. This will make it a little easier to start off. You also don’t want to push too much fabric to the top and make it too bulky to pull through. If you do carefully work it back but be careful as the hook can come detached. I prefer bunching it up mid way of the loop turner and then slowly push it too the top. Then repeat the process. Hope this helps!

Not a corset. That’s a boned bodice with a laced closure. I don’t know where this calling anything by whatever word started, but imagine your surgeon asking for a thingy while you’re open on the table? Language is supposed to be a precision instrument - especially sewing language. You cannot communicate about it unless you use correct terms. Your laced bodice is fabulous. Beautiful work!
