@dar4835 25 дней назад

@domicofo don't sew over pins. Use the right needle for the fabric. Try to use bobbin and upper thread from the same spool. Good luck!

@soundtrackbella 26 дней назад

Nice work! For sewing knit fabrics, I recommend buying a ballpoint needle. So affordable and will make sewing stretch fabric an absolute dream, as it won't jam and pull the fabric into your machine, and instead, the ballpoint will gently move between fibres. A twin needle is another great lil addition to your sewing kit, as it gives stretch items, such as tshirts, a professional looking and slightly stretchy hem, without the need for a coverstitch machine, which is used in professional sewing workrooms. Two items that I think make sewing and altering your clothes easier in future, that I reach for constantly now!

@sarahkinsey5434 26 дней назад

I came down here to comment the same thing. I was struggling with a knit and realized I forgot to put in the ballpoint needle

@beepwrld 26 дней назад

Ok this is great to know, although I actually did use a ballpoint needle for that skort originally and it still wasn't quite right!! this machine is a very old hand-me-down so I think this sort of thing just happens sometimes hahah

@sarahkinsey5434 26 дней назад

@@beepwrld sometimes the tension on my machine slips or something because the stitches underneath/the back get loopy from the top thread.

@helenm1085 26 дней назад

@@sarahkinsey5434this used to happen to me and then a friend suggested that I could be pulling my fabric out wrong. Like once you finish sewing, you need to pull the fabric out from under the foot by pulling it away from you (so in the same direction you were sewing), otherwise the next thing you sew may be screwed up. If you forget, just pull a bit of extra thread back before you start. Since I changed my habits, I no longer get weird tension or tangles under the fabric. Idk if this will solve your problem but it's such an obscure thing that no one teaches you!!

@sarahkinsey5434 26 дней назад

@@helenm1085 thanks I’ll to remember! Most times I’ll be sewing along and then hear a *tink* sound and then it does the loopy thing. It’s only once in a while so it could maybe be thread

@hollyebrown6375 21 день назад

Stretch fabric was my arch nemesis in the 90s! Get some machine needles just for stretch fabric-not “universal” (what a lie!). They are the secret ingredient!

@emmadxwn 25 дней назад

after watching this video yesterday, i went to my overloaded fabric bin and made 3 scrunchies, a bandana, and started a skirt!!! (after not touching my sewing machine in at least a year) this was so inspiring you gotta do it again sometime 😭❤️

@ktnobles90 26 дней назад

I can't tell you how many times I've cut the wrong side, had to seam rip entire pieces, etc. And I've been sewing since I was 4 years old (I'm 33 now, so 29 years)! Don't feel bad when you make a mistake--even the most seasoned sewists screw up!! That being said, your projects look amazing!

Craft stores sell a protective glove for use with the rotary cutter in the quilting department. Rotary cutters slice through fingers to the bone so fast you will hardly know what happened. This is from personal experience and it's one I cant forget. Sometimes when I have trouble sewing a certain fabric it's because I need a different needle.

Sewing all those things in a week is really impressive, and they all came out great! Sewing always takes so much longer than you expect and like... Sometimes you need to allow time for your project to sit in time out and think about its bad behaviour haha

@mel_issa__ 23 дня назад

Having a fabric stash is super normal, people have their fabrics for much longer than 3 years, you're fine ❤ (I've gotten fabric from someone who inherited a huge vintage stash. And no, I haven't sewn those fabrics yet haha)

@LauraOtermat 22 дня назад

I came to the comment section to say this, too. I held onto scrapbooking supplies for 9 years before I decided to use them. It's completely normal to cycle through your interests or just like having tools and supplies for the potential to use them eventually.

@amandarogers6161 25 дней назад

As a visual learner, the planning on milanote is gold, this is SO useful to me. Also, so you don't have to keep fixing the pieces, make yourself a pattern on paper once you find the adjustments you want, that way every time you want to make a new piece you can just edit the patter you already have.

@mdavisscadedu 26 дней назад

Great video. Thank you for introducing me to Milanote. It looks like a great assist . Plus, your demonstration of how it works gives me so many ideas.

@theclotheserinsews 25 дней назад

Hi Liz! I love your creative videos and I am always SO EXCITED to see people sewing! I just want you to know that all of those struggles that you had are completely normal for even the most experienced sewist. The more you persevere through the mistakes, the more you'll learn and the less you'll make them over time. I have a machine that hates knit fabric (skort) as well, but I now use a walking foot and it's much less of a headache. One thing to remember, if you're going to use existing garments for your patterns, don't forget to add seam allowance. Congratulations on your beautiful bias finish. It looks great! And I really love your plaid skirt. What a great idea!

It's a very happy coincidence how well the plaid patch lines up with the other plaid, I feel like that really makes it make sense on the red one in a more intentional way.

@TeaCupCracked 24 дня назад

My favorite project was the skirt because of the contrast, yet it all works together. It's both really "wild" and somehow also not; it's really, really well balanced; if you pair it with more "neutral" colors on top it plays it down and if you pair it with bright colors, or prints, it plays it up; I love getting inspiration for these sort of super-versatile pieces that can weave in and out of a bunch of different styles/substyles! Also going with a curved line was both daring (in terms of the technical aspect) yet it totally paid off. Sorry not sorry I might one day copy your homework on this one.

@Deafkid97 26 дней назад

I feel your paaaaiiin with the "accidentally cutting out backwards.... twice" situation, omg. Two years ago, I made a pair of black and white jeans, and the white demin was pretty expensive and hard to find. You BET I cut out the (white) back left leg backwards. So, I decided to problem solve and re-cut the *black* demin instead, since that was much cheaper and I had more of it. Yeah, I cut that second left leg backwards too🙃. So, now I have two back pieces ready for a two different pairs of shorts, i guess?
