Perfect for total beginners like me 👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@DowntownTailoring]

Yaayyy! I’m so glad to hear that!

[@kathyburt3294]

never EVER thought of overcasting by hand! Perfect suggestion. That was like 20 lessons !! and I'm almost starting to understand. To me those finishes look so much better than a serger. THANKS for sharing

[@DowntownTailoring]

Awww thank you so much Kathy! I will try to make a video some time in the future showing different ways to overcast :)) Also, I agree! Lots of finishes without the serger look beautiful!

Fantastic!

[@BelindaTOV]

My machine only has the basic zigzag and i cant afford a fancy machine. I decided to buy an overcast foot for it and WOW what a difference in how it works!

[@DowntownTailoring]

Yes! Indeed. Almost like a serger!

[@BelindaTOV]

[@shellyoliver6173]

Awesome work! I'm so glad I found this one, I need to learn as many finishes as I can not having a surger anymore. If you haven't done a video of finishes, please do! I'm new to your channel and am loving all you do. You're so talented I'm just always loving your videos!😀

[@DowntownTailoring]

[@MAHWL]

I dont sew clothing too often but when i use a pattern i always iron it 🤓

[@DowntownTailoring]

Yessss!!! 👍👍👍

[@olajordan9951]

What pattern are you using?

[@DowntownTailoring]

I’m using the Butterick B5567 Fast & Easy pattern! In my previous video, I showed how to interpret the pattern :)

[@Наталья-О]

Очень красивый жакетик

[@DowntownTailoring]

Спасибо!

[@dcwatashi]

For the continuous binding, we needed a close up when you are preparing the tube, can’t see any detail. That’s the most important part. If those lines don’t match from either piece of fabric, it won’t work

[@DowntownTailoring]

Yes. You need to make them match the best you can. It doesn’t need to be perfect. Rather good enough. Good luck 🥰

[@dcwatashi]
