In theory the little latch is supposed stay flat to insert then close when you pull it back but let’s face it, the wobbly little ferker does whatever it likes 😂 It’s a tool of a tool and I’m glad it’s not just me who thinks so!

I've been having a problem with a new sewing machine i bought and I'm hoping that maybe someone might help me understand what might be the problem. I basically haven't used it and the first time I tried some stitch settings it seemed to sew fine but the next time I sewed it skipped stitches. At first I thought it might be because of the fabrics thickness but it skipped stitches even on a thin lining material. I tried rethreading the machine, the bobbin, changed different needles, tried different tensions and threads but nothing seems to help. The machine even broke a needle while I was trying to see what it would do on the overlock setting. And it did make kind of a grinding sound before it broke the needle. Is there something I can do to fix this or should I take it to service?

Thank you for your wonderful advice! I’m making a jelly roll rug and am having the worst time with skipped stitches! I switched up my universal needle to a denim needle thinking that would help but it doesn’t. I’m not really sure where to go from here, but I’ll try all of the steps you suggested in hopes that it fixes the issue, but I am gonna go back to the universal needle.

Hi Carmen, thanks for a very detailed description of uses. What I'm looking for is something that I would wrap around an object just an example like a ball and just completely cover the ball wrapping around the elastic material but that's really not what it's made for I need something that is adhesive on one side that will bind to itself any suggestions for indoor use that aren't toxic I believe they most simplest product is elastic film

This is brilliant. Thank you so much :) I will look for a 'hump jumper' and in the meantime I will start folding up fabric. Brilliant. Thank you for sharing this with us.

There isn’t any explanation in this video. Why did you use the cotton switch? Why did you use the zig zag pattern? Why didn’t you match the color to the pants?

i’m so confused how did you get the pin to go fully inside the tube and not have the little metal bit get stuck on the fabric

Good for you spreading this important information. I have over 30 years experience in the high end of the fashion industry as a designer and pattern drafter in Toronto. We often used cotton interlock and wool jersey in our lines and stablizing the shoulders and back neck is SO IMPORTANT. Any time I buy clothes elsewhere or online I'm always disappointed to see no one doing it (usually imports). I have a growing pile of tops I need to hand-sew stabilizing tapes into now! I won't even wear them until I do that. Even during the sewing process, the back neck can stretch out beyond what it's supposed to be, so the sewers get that tape on ASAP and carefully handle it before they get the chance to do it. I'm not familiar with this method you're doing, but we use 1/4" twill tape or a clear silicon tape and sew it just inside the stitching line before they seam the shoulders or finish the neckline however it'll be. When we make our patterns, we write those measurements on the pattern pieces (the raw shoulder seam length and raw back neckline measurement) and put them on the spec sheets that we give to the sample sewers and the contractors for the production. This is an important step that makes the difference between good quality clothing that lasts for years and cheap fast fashion that looks shabby in no time.

Thanks for a great vid! How much smaller is the elastic? Is it also 20% smaller like the binding was? Thanks!

Does anyone know if this same technique can be used to enclose side seams? Serger seams itch me so much I wear items inside out. JOY

I'm sewing a Handkerchief with tow different fabrics Both 100% cotton. One fabric with a design, on one side and Flannel on the other side. should I use "Feather weight interfacing" ( non woven) in-between the fabrics ? Will the interfacing keep the fabrics from shifting away from each other after the Handkerchief is washed or do I need to run stitching across the fabric to keep them together ? Thank you.

I wonder why those shoes are so beautiful. Turn out there is blood sacrifice involved in the process. That is definitely necessary for any incredible shoemaking.

I am SO glad I found your tutorial! the most helpful bra-making vid I've ever watched! I'm an avid thrifter but have not purchased underwear this way. I too have a bra I love and cannot find another one anywhere. Not willing to cut it up so working to get the cup the right fit. Then my journey to copying it is just ahead! Thank you!!
