I have been attempting to teach myself to sew for almost 2 years. In that time I have subscribed to so many sewing courses but they all speak like I'm just suppose to know all these sewing terms and should already know all the basics. (In a way I do because like alot of girls, I had a grandmother who was always sitting a sewing machine and attempting to teach me.) YOU are now my RU-vid Sewing mentor. I love how you speak slowly and clearly for those of us who are constantly pausing and writing these things down. Thank you so much for creating these videos!!!!!!

@proudasiangirl576 2 года назад

Yes, learning to sew, there's a whole new language involved. The massive amount of vocabulary and how each technique can be used is overwhelming but after watching so many different videos from different people, I am slowly starting to grasp what things mean!

@mariloca11 3 года назад

I can't believe the amount of useful information you explained so clearly in just 23 minutes! Thank you!!

@traceythorpe502 3 года назад

Wow thank you ! What a wonderful teacher, I’m a beginner at the age of 57 😄 and you have taught me so much in one tutorial your great had to subscribe 😉

@simmoneb4524 2 года назад

Good on you Tracey for learning to sew. I hope you're progressing well. I agree, Maddy is a terrific teacher.

@user-xw5ie2hm9t 9 месяцев назад

Up until this point, I've had a sewing machine sitting at home but was too intimidated to use it. This video has literally given me the confidence to give it a try. Thank you so much xx

@betsyross2325 5 месяцев назад

It's been over 10 years since I have sewn anything, so I greatly appreciate this basic introduction to sewing.

@thersday_ 4 года назад

My love for sewing started through my grandmother who sewed clothes and sold it. My mom sees a little too. I love sewing, I got a bit of items to start my path to become a master at sewing just like my grandmother.

@AbbyIzaNinja 3 года назад

this is by far the best intro sewing video ive seen. to the point but still descriptive enough, shows all the basics in detail. just perfect thank you!

@ronin9823 3 года назад

I’m looking to start sewing clothes and stuff since I’m gonna be a stay at home dad for a few months, I’d love the idea of just hanging out with my daughter and making her clothes

@proudasiangirl576 2 года назад

Right?! I hate shopping for girls clothes, not just baby clothes that's full of glitter and unicorns. It's so annoying and this is at all stores!

@ktburger659 3 месяца назад

That’s an interesting side effect of capitalism+clothing fire regulations! Baby & kids clothes is covered in stuff like that to signal they aren’t pajamas. Pajamas are subject to more restrictive fire regulations and manufacturers must jump through more hoops which is more expensive. So they put a lot of stuff on them to indicate they are not meant to be slept in, resulting in garish clothing.

i’m trying to learn how to sew AND THIS WAS SO GOOD TTwTT THANK YOU

@vivianarodriguez6780 3 года назад

Thank you so so much for this video! I really needed something to really go into the basics of using a sewing machine and your video was just perfect- you're clear and confident, easy to follow, and I also appreciate that you show how to hem and make ruffles as well. I bought a sewing machine and just opened it yesterday and now I feel less lost about where to begin lol

@librarycarrot Год назад

Thank you for explaining this in such a succinct and respectful way. I didn't think I would need all this information as a beginner, but it all helps me realize what a beginner can do. I'm tired of people recommending I just make pillowcases. I hope I soon become as confident as you with diving in and making cuts and stitches instead of stressing out over each minor step of the process. You're an inspiration!

@blossomnessstudios4446 2 года назад

My mom got me a Janome Magnolia for Christmas and I'm so excited to start making and altering my own clothes!!! This was soooo helpful, it's the basic parts everyone skips over in other tutorials.

@heidibarragan5113 2 года назад

Definitely the most comprehensive beginners sewing ever! I have been looking for this type of video and so glad i found it!! Thank you, thank you!

@candidlycatie1514 3 года назад

Thank you so much for creating this video! I struggled to find videos on here that helped me understand the basics of sewing and you knocked it out of the park. Thank you!

@sarahjuell3757 Год назад

Watching this with the subtitles on and still being able to learn because you taught at a pace that works with the subtitles. Thank you! Can't wait to make some Christmas presents soon!

@sam.4922 2 года назад

I’m so glad I found your channel, I wanted to learn sewing because it’s cheaper and more customisable etc.. than simple fast fashion. Also, I could alter thrifted clothes! Can’t wait to start again

@KARIS1961 9 месяцев назад

You took me back to middle school. That was decades ago. Surprised how much I remembered! I just loved your vid! Easy and clear. Huge thanks! ❤

@ceciliaalongi5062 3 года назад

@henabee6752 Год назад

This was super helpful! I haven’t sewn since studying textiles in school, finally got myself a sewing machine and hoping to get creative! Thank you for sharing.

@lareinedubois 2 года назад

I sewed for many years, then took a 30 year break and am now back to it ! Your video is excellent !

@JDempsey23 3 месяца назад

Oh my gosh thank you so much for this. There seems to be no in-between sewing videos for beginners. It’s all just basic tips and tools for getting started or first project videos. I’m not confident enough to start my first project because I have no idea what people are talking about! The terminology explanation here was so helpful as well as explaining hemming and seeming! And talking through what you were doing each step. You’re a blessing 🙏😂

@larinasong Год назад

This is the best tutorial i could ever find. Ive been wanting to see for almost 2 years now but finding a good tutorial is difficult especially since i have adhd but this helped so much and im already so much better than i was a couple hours ago

@dremb9260 4 года назад

This is such a great video, so clear and well laid out. I can see all the hard work that must have been put in! I've been sewing for a while, but still found this video super helpful. Many thanks :) x

@MsLilywren 10 месяцев назад

Just trying to learn how to sew and use my machine. I've had the machine for three years where it has been staring at me and saying 'don't come near me you clumsy ox, you will only sew your fingers together!' I've decided the sewing machine will not threaten me like that anymore 🤣😂 I've watched a few beginners sewing guides but yours has been the most straightforward and simplest to follow. I feel inspired to go and give that machine what for, rather than come away quivering and thinking wtf went on there? Thank you xx

@ednatogbah1903 3 года назад

I am opening my own boutique online and my sewing skills are improving I'm getting a new sewing machine in a few weeks but I am so happy I found this video, this is the most well explained video out there and I am very happy with how you explained the steps. Big help thank you!!!

@candice_ecidnac 2 года назад

Hoooooly cow, threading the machine is a lot more complicated than I thought it would be. Wow. I was just gifted a Singer model 347 with its own table and I've always wanted to learn how to use a sewing machine. I did not expect just threading it to be so complicated. Goodness. Here's hoping I can get past that part so I can start sewing 😆

@fatimaakram7457 3 года назад

@billie7964 3 года назад

Really helpful with the glossary at the start. And a good pace! I've found other tutorials go a bit too fast and this is nice and slow.

@g.borgia5100 Год назад

Speed can be slowed down by going to the top right, click the gear box which will open a menu and you can make speed adjustments there

@juliamorawska8181 4 года назад

Hey! Actually there is a tiny metal wire loop next to the base of the needle (seen at 4:23) , that you should loop the thread through to keep it more parallel to the needle (and i guess less prone to snapping). Hope that helps!

@TheEssentialsClub 4 года назад

yes that's true! Thanks for the extra note :)

@Jodyfaye17 2 года назад

Thank you for mentioning this. I’m new to sewing and have watched several videos and thought that that loop had been skipped but wasn’t sure. Glad to know I wasn’t crazy. 👍

@robinbebbington7063 Год назад

@joanne6821 10 месяцев назад

This video is just amazing. You were able to explain everything sooooo well and simple. Lil backstory; i just recently got into the idea of sewing my own clothing, bc everything comes just too small or too short for my size and a few days ago, i got a used (but in very good condition) Singer HD 118 C sewing machine and even tho im so excited to do sew and learn, i was too anxious to really start. But with this video i am so much more motivated again, u took away the fear of not understanding. I will definitely watch your other videos as well. You come off as so kind and nice. Big thank you!
