    Can you suggest how to add stabilizer to thiner knits with a knot in front. I purchased a shirt and the knot tightens up with wear and you can't see the detail. The knot tightening does not affect wear...it would just look better with more volume in the knot around bellybutton/waist. I have no extra fabric to make a facing. Thanks

    I've used twin needles with really good success in the past but once I got my little Juki coverstitch I never looked back! I have purchased your coverstitch book some time ago. It's great! ❤

    Bedankt voor de uitleg. Ik vond met de tweelingnaald werken nog steeds moeilijk. De spanning wijzigen is eng. Vandaag de laatste keer naailes. Misschien ga ik het nog leren…. Het heeft lang geduurd, voordat ik een naaimachine minder eng vond. Ik hoop dat Google translate mijn bijdrage vertaald.

    i tried putting wooly nylon in my loopers and for some reason it just doesn't work and seems to pop or break out of the looper guides, it is very bizarre. i think it said threadart on the package

  • @chickadeeacres3864
    @chickadeeacres3864 Před 4 dny

    I’m embarrassed to say I didn’t know that twin needles were for certain stitches. Mine came with my new to me machine and I thought it was for fun appliqué stitches. I used them for a double embroidered line with different coloured threads, and found the stitch that looks like smocking made an interesting decorative pattern. These tips are a bonus!

    Nailpolish remover is made from Acetone. You can use it as well for removing Glue resedue from Surfaces like sewing machines..😉 (Btw if you mix acetone with Styrofoam it will result in a very strong glue which otherwise you have to buy very expensive. Acetone is very cheap.Styrofoam rest pieces you will find in packaging or construction sites.)

    No matter what I do, loosen tension all the way to zero, shorten stitch length, the fabric stretches and the sleeve circumference ends up wider than its starting length. If I test the stretchiness, I can feel the inner thread become extra taught and sometimes breaks. Extremely frustrating.

    When pulling an elastic through the waist of the pants line, I use hemostat locking tweezers on the last end of the elastic so it can't accidentally pull through. I just use a pair from the tool shop, not the expensive surgical kind. Also good for clamping onto one side of a seam and hooking the handle onto something stable, then pulling on the other side of the seam to rip it open.
