I was surprised to also learn that my Mini Sewing Machine could sew stretch and woven jean fabric, along with many other fabrics! Appropriate needle and thread for the fabric does wonders! I worked in an alteration shop and I'll share a tip with you. Hammer the flat fell seam before sewing it. The heat generated from hammering it, softens the seam for easier sewing, and it flattens it for easier insertion under the presser foot. After hammering, I am able to sew over the flat fell seam by slowly turning my handwheel; as long as I'm using a thinner jean fabric.

@OoniCrafts 4 года назад

Lynda thank you so much for your insights! I once saw a documentary where a master tailor was treating seams in men's clothing by hammering them on an anvil! Fascinating techniques. You are already a superstar for me 💗💗💗

@eldrugoalex Год назад

@@OoniCrafts Wait, do you guys actually mean a hammer, like for carpentry? If I buy this machine, it will be for the sole purpose of fixing my jeans. I'm glad it actually works. Thanks for the showing us it is possible!

@OoniCrafts Год назад

Hi there, yes I do mean an honest-to-goodness toolbox hammer!😆 Having said that, I would caution you against buying it if you just want to hem jeans. I did a full video on the technical reasons why. If you go down the list for the one regarding denim, you'll get your answer. If you can afford to do so, I would highly recommend the Singer heavy duty for jeans. I have videos on that too, just have a browse. Good luck!

@mrmephysto1657 10 месяцев назад

So, I really enjoyed this video. It wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but it does somewhat answer some of the questions I have about these mini machines. 4 layers of denim is pretty fantastic for such a small, seemingly fragile machine. What I was wondering was whether or not this machine would have the ability to attach a stripe of fabric down the outer seam on the outside of a pair of slacks (like military and peace officer dress slacks? The underfolded hem on either side of the striping could be folded once (as it is hidden) or twice (standard). Attaching this stripe would be most complicated across the opening edge of the pocket (which itself would be likely 4 layers), as well as down the hem. The stripe would actually be folded into the hem and hidden (adding new layers to the hem). An additional complication would be how much trouser leg material you can get between the foot and neck of the machine. I will search more of your videos to see if you have anything like it (adding striping, piping, or in/outer seams). If you don't, do you think it would be possible to create an example? Thank you!

@nongyo3140 3 года назад

I'm also thinking about that, but on my mom's high-speed machine we usually do is we have a small hammer, we used to carefully hit the folded demin using small hammer to make it soft and start stitching.

I tried this last year when I turned my bell bottoms into semi-skinny jeans. I was also surprised when my mini sewing machine did the denim job but I cannot hem it because of the flat fell seam so I left it as is. I still wear it tho I just have to be careful laundering that jeans of mine

@maeelainevillanueva5555 2 года назад

Hi. Did you change your needle ? Or just the free needle from the sewing machine ?

@OoniCrafts 2 года назад

If you are using denim, it is best to use a denim needle which is thicker and more robust and can pierce through multiple layers of denim. Hope this helps.

ok i sew denim, the problem is not how many layer, its the fold between two peace's. Demonstrate on sewing a full complete hem folded twice between two peace's . that's where you are most likely the hit a problem.

@@OoniCrafts im planning to taper all my straight jeans and hem them to my lenght making it athletic taper or levis 502 kinda thing.

@OoniCrafts 2 года назад

Aah Knives this little thing will make it nigh impossible to alter jeans. The side seams are flat- felled with multiple layers. Even if you do a simple side seam, the bottom hem will be impossible to do cos you're looking at a mountain of denim layers. I speak about this near the end of this video. If the bottom hem is not super important, you could just snip it to size using pinking shears but it won't give you a finished look... Really ideally you need a denim sewing machine you know...

Hi there. I need your help. I encountered a problem on my mini sewing machine. The pickup lever seems to "tug" whenever it raises up. Please help.

@tricksnavata1650 4 года назад

I did some checkups and basic troubleshooting. I checked on the tension and it is just fine. I also have a good thread.

@tricksnavata1650 4 года назад

Although the tugging doesn't seem to affect the stitching, it might become a problem inthe future because of the "tug". It gives the feeling of overworking the machine because of it.

@tricksnavata1650 4 года назад

What I mean by "tugging" is that along the way of the pickup lever rising, the lever gets stuck just a little bit. That you can feel the "tug" for maybe 0.5 secs during the raise and it makes that struggling noise.

@tricksnavata1650 4 года назад

I'm just using my sewing machine on some velboa and crystal soft fabric. It did not have that "tug" at first. It worked just fine. Please help.

@mana788 4 года назад

You'll excuse me from the side. The needle and bobbin housing may be out of timing. I had a similar problem with my mini sewing machine and solved it by fixing the timing. The timing may shift even during use. Check out her video playlist.
