sunday sewing chat and skyline tee

[@aljgreen1]

Dear Judi, often watch you ,but today I want to say a big thank you for talking and showing how you use your overlocker and cover stitch. I have sewn off and on for many years and now that I am retired I am doing more and enjoying myself. I am thinking about buying an overlocker and am very tempted with the baby lock. Thankyou again,think your t shirt is fabulous. Ann .

[@runningsewandsew]

Oh thank you so much, I have worked so much on improving my skills with these two machines - especially the cover stitch an they are paying off now xx

[@englishroses2464]

Love your Mississippi dress! It’s absolutely gorgeous! I will have to have a look at Sew House Seven dress patterns now. 😄

[@runningsewandsew]

They are wonderful patterns xx

[@sarahjocker5059]

Hello Judi once again you have shown us how the overlocker and the cover stitch works it is a treat watching you demonstrate your skills and I thank you for that. Look forward to seeing you again xxxx

[@runningsewandsew]

Oh thank you Sarah x

I love your videos Ms Judi. For binding the seam of the neck, I watched sewing Julia (kzbin.info/www/bejne/emSzYXWCba-KaM0) at the 59 min mark. I hope that is helpful.

I'l lcheck it out x

Really enjoyed this, Judy so thanks for sharing! After this, I’m going to explore Sew House Seven - love your T-shirts. I started sewing 3 years ago (very very late in the day in retirement and in lockdown🎉) and just love it. I’ve gone in full on and bought a coverstitch machine about 6 months ago. When it works well it’s amazing and I love it. Have you tried woolly nylon on the inside of the neckline (it’s sooo comfortable) and variegated Wonderfil especially if you do it inside out? - the effects are stunning. However, you’re right and it’s a learning curve, particularly lining up the seams and going over the joins. Anyway, there’s no escaping the fact that you have to practise - no pain, no gain. 😁

[@runningsewandsew]

I love SH7 patterns x

[@englishroses2464]

Sorry for all the messages, Judy, but I am watching and asking questions as I go along. Did you apply the red neck binding on the t shirt you are wearing the same way as the white one you are demonstrating? I love it.

[@runningsewandsew]

Yes I did xx

[@loriannpayne4483]

Yay for your new internet! Yay for this lovely video - so helpful for newer sewists. LOVE the T-shirts, they’re just wonderful on you. Hugs from Oregon. See you soon!

[@runningsewandsew]

Oh my new internet is a-ma-zing! x

[@graceinwood-nan-that-sews-9852]

I am using my cover stitch machine for woven fabrics to learn how to use it. The more you use it the better.

[@runningsewandsew]

Oh I love mine x

[@michturner179]

Thanks Judy another great vlog. T- shirts look fab ❤😊

[@runningsewandsew]

thank you x

[@englishroses2464]

Judy, you look absolutely fabulous! You looked wonderful before but I think you are even slimmer now! I need to lose weight so I am thinking if Slimming World or WW. Any idea which is better?

[@runningsewandsew]

I can confidently say that it was Slimming World and exercise together - just as they suggest, but it takes time. It took me 8 months xx

[@englishroses2464]

@@runningsewandsew I really need to give it a go. Thank you.

[@tracyfrost]

That T-shirt looks very good on you I love the matching binding.

Lovely t shirt Judy, thank you for sharing.

My pleasure x

[@SewVeryLaura]

Binge watching your vlogs to catch up! Loved your cover stitch guidance, thank you. I am lucky enough to have one too, but I have never been brave enough to try It on a neckline. X

[@runningsewandsew]

Wonderful! x

[@janetyler1642]

Hi Judi, I just love that fabric for your Mississippi dress and I think it will look just great. I remember you buying it.😃 The skyline tees look fabulous on you. I am trying to remember to use my cover stitch for neck bands too as it does give such a nice finish. Can’t wait to see you wearing all your lovely clothes.❤

[@runningsewandsew]

Not long now Jane x

[@nicky-Sewandsnip]

Love listening to your vlogs, they are always so informative and uplifting 😊

[@runningsewandsew]

I'm so glad! Thank you so much for watching x

[@letitiathomson914]

Hi Judy, Rachel from sewing French seams always puts binding across the back of the neck so her tee shirts. I think she has a blog showing you how to do it. Happy sewing.🧵🪡🇦🇺

[@runningsewandsew]

Thank you lovely x

[@angelalysandrou4830]

Love your enthusiasm for sewing. I’m going away this weekend and am trying to sew like crazy to take some new handmade bits, as you say why do we do it to ourselves 🤦‍♀️😂

[@runningsewandsew]

Oh we certainly do x

[@maureencullen1008]

I love your vlogs ,your personality is so lovely. It was great to hear an experienced sewer reminding people to go slow to achieve great results. Love your makes. Is there a particular shop you like to buy your tee shirt fabrics from?

[@runningsewandsew]

Oh thank you, I tend to buy my fabrics from a variety of on line english retailers x

[@craftymystic4868]

The Closet Core tee has this idea of a covered seam running along the back of the tee, and I use it now fairly frequently as I really like that feature. I also like the pattern, it’s a nice straighter fit for a tee. You might get that pattern just for the technique.

[@runningsewandsew]

I'll check it out - I do think that the binding will not work with the coverstitch x

[@juliehall3987]

Love the t-shirt you are wearing in your video 😊 x

[@runningsewandsew]

Thank you!! 😊
