Kite sewing - pockets and loops

Tips for sewing corner pockets and loops for a rokkaku kite

[@techtinkerin]

I found your vids ages ago and have made a few although my sewing is pretty roughneck! Decided to get back into flying the ancient Chinese 'drones' and show the modern lot how it used to be done! Thanks brilliant work. 👍😎

[@AndrewNewton]

Wonderful! Kite flying is therapeutic

[@LeuchTe_StriKe]

I do it a bit different. I use only tension loops to fix the stocks. 😉.

The more of Yours videos I watch the more I want to build a kite :D Great video(s)!

[@AndrewNewton]

+hubsonekka Good to hear. You must try it, very rewarding.

....What Is Islam? Islam is not just another religion. It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham. Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God. It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone. It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine. The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as: { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4) Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus. Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him

I haven't attempted patchwork sewing. I imagine glue or tape would be needed.

[@losFondos]

Can you make a vid about patchwork sewing? this one was really usefull, thanks:)

[@quedecree]

Great vids, Andrew. Hope you don't mind me posting them on the XK site. Nice looking Pfaff too - a walking foot? Looks much more friendly than my beaten up old thing!

[@AndrewNewton]

quedecree Yes go right ahead John, happy for you to post them. It is a walking foot and it's very nice. That sewing machine is all mine now, bought Virg a new one for her 50th.

[@energymusic7641]

[@AndrewNewton]

Pfaff Tiptronic 2300

[@MartyLJ57]

I haven't seen this type of kit here in the States.

[@AndrewNewton]

Kite Aerial Photographers use this kite for light winds.

[@Julide305]

hangi makina ayağı kulandınız??

[@AndrewNewton]

Normal foot for this machine, like a walking foot. Pfaff IDT system

[@globalpanorama]

[@AndrewNewton]

Straight is stronger for some applications
