Got Curves??? This little gauge will make is a snap to sew them accurately

[@cjrt6425]

Sooooo excited! I am a paraplegic sewer who uses my hand to used the foot control placed on the table next to my machine. Straight lines are a challenge. Please tell your dad he's my hero.👨‍🦼

[@JSternDesigns]

I'm so that this can help you! ...and I'll be sure to tell he. Thanks for watching

[@DiannaAtherton]

Tell Dad thanks for all the fabulously cool feet. Now I have to order this one too. Keep up the good work. Ask him if he wants to adopt another daughter😂😅

[@JSternDesigns]

Will do... He'll be tickled! Thanks for watching

Jen! Just getting back my “sewing mojo,” after an about 8 year garment sewing pause. I have finally opened up my Brother coverstitch after buying it over 2 years ago. LOVE this machine, and look forward to using this guide for my coverstitch work, since that is the one drawback I find with using it. I found it hard to get a straight stitch. The putty idea is a GAMECHANGER, problem SOLVED! I purchased the first “dad gadget” as well, and this one is even BETTER! Thank you and dad for your passion to make sewing much more enjoyable and for helping us to get more professional projects!

[@JSternDesigns]

Yay, I'm so happy to hear!! I had it on my list to share how to use these with my serger and it kinda fell off my list. My Dad gets a kick out of trying to find things for me to share on my Channel! Plus, he's a wood working craftsman! He makes all kinds of things from furniture to little wooden cars, trucks and even a school bus for my daughter's third grade classroom! Lots of things crossover between sewing/drafting and what he does. We have a lot of fun talks about how to get accurate results!! Thanks for following along and Happy Serging!!

[@mimimack6905]

That’s wonderful. My neighbor is a woodworker. I asked him to make a clapper for me, and I couldn’t be happier 😀 Nice, crisp pressed seams and edges.

Three cheers for Dad! I hope he keeps hunting because he does find cool tools. Also, thank *you* for consistently pointing out the focal point when sewing. My mama and my grandfather (a retired bespoke tailor) taught me to sew many decades ago and while my handwork was topnotch, it was literally decades before I could match it at the machine--because neither of them told me where to focus. I suspect both of them knew instinctively, so it didn't occur to them to tell me or perhaps they weren't even conscious of doing so. Your telling makers where to focus is no doubt preventing many frustrating experiences.

[@JSternDesigns]

:) I think that's true, much of sewing becomes instinctive... I try to remember to mention little things that can be helpful! Thank you for watching

[@RosieCarl]

I agree with this. Nobody ever told me where to focus my attention either, but I somehow developed that skill over many years of sewing beiing conscious of it. But it has become important to me recently as I have been teaching my grandchildren to sew. Thanks for the tip!

[@victoriahannah1633]

@@RosieCarl😊

[@GrainneDhu]

@@RosieCarl It took me many years (over 20, no kidding) before I figured out where to focus. Part of it may be because I started out hand sewing--in hand sewing, you look at the point of the needle and I kept doing the same at the machine.. I remember my grandfather showing me how to do a simple hand sewn buttonhole, supervising me until I could do one that was okay, then handing me a bundle of scraps and telling me to come back when I'd done 300 and then he'd show me how to do the keyhole variation. It's still easier for me to contemplate hand sewing a buttonhole than it is putting one in using the buttonhole feature of my machine!

[@bonniedeaton7349]

That's a Beautiful lil tool! I Need one!

[@JSternDesigns]

I think you'll love it! I've been practicing with it... It gets better and better with practice! Thanks for watching

[@pamelaroth6389]

Dad scores again!! We all need to send him Father’s Day cards. Thanks Dad and Jen!

[@JSternDesigns]

:) Yay! He really found a good one this time!!

[@ji.ol.1490]

Lovely to hear how much you and your dad are involved with each other.

[@terryblain607]

Where do we get the guide?

[@JSternDesigns]

...That's may favorite thing! Because I have my own little business, I can take time every Tuesday and Thursday to visit my Mom and Dad in the morning & then spend quality time with my Dad at lunch... Sometimes we talk for hours! Thanks for watching

[@mariallen]

Thank you and Dad! For the first seam gauge, Ace Hardware has a screw that fits perfectly!

[@JSternDesigns]

Yay!! Thank you for confirming that you can find a screw that will work at the hardware store :)

[@vitiller4109]

Love this guide. I found it in my sewing box, didn't what it was. It makes sewing so much easier. Thanks,

[@JSternDesigns]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching

[@mindy2665]

I never knew what those holes were on the machine. Now i do lol Thank you. 😊 😳😳

[@JSternDesigns]

Happy to help! Thanks for watching

[@victoriahannah1633]

Another neat tool! Thanks Jen & also her Dad. This should really help with those ornery neck & arm curves.

[@JSternDesigns]

:) Thanks so much! I'm going to be sharing more about this foot soon. The side that works for outside curves does a fantastic job around tight curves... I can't wait to play with that! Thanks for watching

[@christinei5490]

Thank you Jen, it is a very useful tool. I use both tools regularly they are the best gadgets I have. I am a sucker for sewing gadgets. ❤

[@JSternDesigns]

:))) Thank you for letting me know that you love them & for watching :)

[@maggieschmidt7377]

Kudos, Dad. Wonderful uses. Still waiting for first tool.

[@JSternDesigns]

Thanks! I hope you hem guide arrives soon! Thanks for watching

[@prof_pudge]

Thanks Jen and Dad! I bought the first tool and love it. Now I may have to buy this one too. Tell Dad to keep up the good work. ☺

[@JSternDesigns]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@abcameo]

Thanks so much. I bought the first tool and discovered both screws that came with it didn't fit. I have an older Babylock model so just emailed the asking if they sell a screw that will fit. I also asked if I could use the magnetic version you list below. I already owned this curve gadget but was unable to use it since the screw also didn't fit. My hubby tried to buy screws for it at a local hardware store--he bought a few different sizes, but none of them fit right. If Babylock doesn't have a screw, I'll use this mounting putty. 🙂

[@JSternDesigns]

:) I was really happy with the way the mounting putty works with this gauge....Because you can squeeze it into the recessed bottom. The guide will be flush with the bed of your machine if you keep the mounting putty level with it. Thanks for watching

[@Escape10mom]

That's so cool. I just got today the first seam guide he found for you! I haven't had a chance to play with mine yet. Maybe tomorrow.

[@JSternDesigns]

Have fun with it! Thanks for watching

[@proudasiangirl576]

So glad that I have discovered your channel. I LOVE your content and just gave you a thumbs up and have subscribed.

[@JSternDesigns]

Thank you so much & Welcome aboard :)

[@sharonscott8358]

This looks like a great gadget. I use the other one all the time, although it wasn't too happy with the really thick fleece I was sewing (more like a teddy bear fleece) but all thinner fabrics, just fantastic.

[@JSternDesigns]

Teddy Bear Fleece is very fluffy!! I can see where that little paddle might be over whelmed by it! Happy it works for your other fabrics! Thanks for watching

[@JSTidbitqueen]

I saw a version of the hem guide that is magnetic. I wish I could find the link. Still had the part that gripped the fabric also.

[@JSternDesigns]

:) Here you go, I found it on amazon, here's the affiliate link: amzn.to/45UhTpJ Thanks for watching

[@lanalaned6592]

I saw both of these on Temu (this one and the last one you showed).

[@JSternDesigns]

Temu has everything it seems... But I'm annoyed by that site because you can't just buy one thing you have to meet their minimum order. I really wanted the Pierogi maker... I put it in my cart and they said I had to spend 14$ more. Thanks for watching!

[@kimt2au]

I got one of the last gadgets and it's wonderful. Will look into this one.

[@JSternDesigns]

:))) So happy to hear! I love gadgets! Thanks for watching

[@deidrabenson361]

Thanks so very much for sharing!❤️❤️❤️

[@JSternDesigns]

You are so welcome! Thank you for watching

[@dolorestoolis4690]

Cool tools'

[@JSternDesigns]

:) Thanks for watching

[@suecleek4251]

Would this work on a serger, in particular in light of the new Babylock cover????

[@JSternDesigns]

I'm going to play with that... stay tuned! Thanks for watching

[@tammyjohnson8150]

Thank you so much for your tutorial. I recently saw this product and immediately bought it, thinking it would be useful for my boyfriend who does leather work. Most especially handbags now. When it arrived, it came with an additional piece that was a long straight piece that sort of looked like a foot at the end and a squared piece at the other end. I have not seen anything like this. Any idea of what it does?

[@JSternDesigns]

That's interesting...I'll look for one so I can see what it does... Stay tuned!

[@loriarps4239]

Do you think this tool would help with hemming formal gowns cut on the bias using a hemmer foot?

[@JSternDesigns]

The tricky thing about bias is that you don't want to stretch it as you hem because it can distort the shape of the edge... I would have to practice with it to see if it helps. (sorry I don't have a better answer right now ...adding this to my "get to it" list!

[@tanasuesews]

Would it help to move the guide towards you to line up with the front of the pressure foot?

[@JSternDesigns]

That's a great question... I'm still playing with it. I think I'll fine-tune how I use it as I get more experience with it. I think it's like anything else, the more you practice with it the better it works because you pick up little things like exactly where the sweet spot is... Thanks for watching

[@kayphuff]

Yea Dad

[@JSternDesigns]

Whoot Whoot!

[@peggyjarvis6683]

If screw doesn’t fit use the screw that came with the machine as long as it’s not too big

[@JSternDesigns]

That's a good idea too! Thanks for watching
