Isn't it funny how some people find it gorgeous while others of us find it utterly distracting (not in a good way) and it detracts from what is being said? Notice what you said, "as much as I would like to look at the side, I just can't take my eyes off your manicure." The manicure isn't the focus of the video; learning to sew in a straight line is.

I'm at the very beginning of my sewing journey, finding your tutorials has been an absolute stroke of luck and I've learnt so much from them, thank you so much Aneka for your effort in creating such well thought and high quality videos. In relation to this tutorial for sewing in a straight line, I thought I'd add in a neat little trick I picked up from the lady I bought my sewing machine from. She showed me that you could use a wide elastic band around the body of your sewing machine and lined up using a ruler. It doesn't need the metal parts to attach to unlike the magnetic guide, it doesn't leave a residue unlike the tape and is reusable. It has a slight amount of depth and tack which helps make it apparent when you've gone past it or over it. You can also use an elastic in a bold colour if you have vision problems or colour a plain one with permanent marker. Hope this helps someone :)

Priceless and timely! I just finished a Top Stitch, where part of the seam turned out wobbly. And, I was frustrated with my apparent inability to sew a straight line! I have increasing trouble seeing, and, the lighting in my sewing room is terrible! These are two excuses. :-) Now, having watched your video, I have renewed confidence in sewing in a straight line. Great video. Thank you!

I’m am looking at my needle way too much. I’m going to try some of these tip. Thank you

Like other novices, I've had a lot of wobbly stitches and now I understand why! What has also helped my stitching is going extra slow (I have a machine with a variable speed toggle switch) and using my 1/4" piecing foot. Now, thanks to your tutorial, I will try to keep my eyes off that needle and on the stitching guides instead!😀

There is 1/4 inch seam guide quilting tape that’s great, the zipper foot also lets you get very close to the edge of you cannot move your needle. If you use the masking tape technique put about 5 layers of that or painter’s tape and you have a nice thick guide that is inexpensive and won’t move. Great tips

I get the waviest lines when I have material feeding problems. With a machine where I can move the needle, I try to adjust it so that the feed dogs are covered as much as possible with material. The feed dogs can not pull the material through if they are not in contact with material. I notice this the most when trying to put a small seam on a large piece of material with the needle to the left. I also try to use a foot that is wide enough to hold the material against the feed dogs. Something like a zipper foot is great when needed, but the small footprint reduces the material that is held against the feed dogs. I could watch you all day, (and sometimes I do). I am a new sewer and have learned a lot from you.

Thanks Aneka. I learn very helpful tips each time I watch your videos. I have been sewing less than a year and I am encouraged to not give up after I watch your videos. I want to make a coat but I need to figure out the right fabric. Do you have any advice?

Hi Shavonne, amazing news. Thank you. I would go for a natural fabric as a starting point, wool is a great place to start. Maybe a boiled wool, that is easy to work with and quite forgiving.

Thanks HEAPS for this video series Aneka. So thankful that you explain down to the tiny details for overthinking newbies like me. I just wish my machine could sew slowly, as in a slow motion stitch by stitch, like yours and seemingly everybody elses machine does. The lightest touch on my pedal is nowhere near this slow which makes it really hard to practice as a beginner. Is this something they could alter at a fabric store or repair shop maybe? I'm pretty desperate about it at this point. A couple other questions - does the edge presser foot go by any other names? I can't find anything for it here in Australia. And do you have to strictly buy presser foots of your machines brand? There's not many at all for my Brother machine, but there's a tonne of Singer branded feet. Thanks so much if you have the time to answer this.

So pleased you liked it! In this video I think I show two foot pedals: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2HIgaSEe7mBa6c at 6:21 The white one is easier to control. It is for machines that have an electronic component (this machines has as a needle up and down button, so it doesn’t have to be anything fancy). However I am not sure that you can swap to a different foot pedal. 😬 You will need to get a presser foot that fits your individual machine; they are made for particular brands. So usually they are not interchangeable and you will need to get a Brother foot. I think I show this here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipe3qH5tesRmebM It could also be called: stitch in the ditch? I think that might be what Brother call it? Let me know how you get on. Aneka

I have amblyopia ( which is a visual cortex issue not an eye issue) causes me to not see things in my field of view, blurriness, astigmatism, myopia, and uhh, more eye/ visual cortex issues I can’t remember. I love to sew but... I can’t even see a straight line, everything looks crooked to me. I use all the guides on the planet and still can’t sew straight, well, not all, I have yet to use a laser but I can’t see if the laser is set up straight lol It took me a long time to accept this. Now I focus more on “ I made this” instead. No one should ever mention my crooked lines, as long as it fits fine, it works.

What an amazing attitude to have. 💖 I am really sorry to hear about your eye issues. BUT you have the most important bit right - the '"I made this"! That is what is important, the love and work that has gone into a project. Thank you for sharing. Aneka x

If I mark my seams with a heat erasable marker (which I do) how do I keep myself from watching the needle since I’m lining the needle up with my drawn line?

Ha Ha, I think it comes with a bit of practise and food control. Also some foot pedals this is easier to do than others; depending on how they connect with the machine.

Ha ha! Yes so similar because there is also an element of doing lots of different things. So you have to learn form some things to be habit and subconscious. Glad I could help.

Hi Lovely Aneka. Please, I've got a question for you. I wonder whether you could do a video on the thickness of the threads and the corresponding needles. I have no idea what these mean 100, 120, 95, 36... clueless. Thanks in advance for your help. Hugs🌹🌹🌹💕
