Can I use seam tape for knits instead of the clear elastic? I don’t mind buying it, but I already have a knit seam tape here at home.

I have a very similar job to do and I am a man who doesn't know what he is doing. I didn't think I would find anyone actually adding extra material like I need to. This is perfect. Thank you. Also, you seem like a very delightful person. I shall subscribe.

How long did this take you to make? My mother in law is coming into town next week and was trying to give her a time estimate for this project she said she’d help me with 😊

why are all my hobbies so expensive

So Cute!! Are you using a twin needle for the top stitching?

Fantastic depth yet every day language ❤

You left out the type of sewing machine.

This is amazing work Lydia. ❤ Can you provide the pattern also inclusding the option for a longer version up to the ankles. Would highly appreciate it to share with sewing lovers.

I really appreciate your in put on this machine. I have this one and a few other ones. But this is my baby. My mother was a singer person and I followed her every word. She was a seamstress all her life. If she liked it I liked it She’s gone for 19 years now but her influence was my reason for buying it. But but this machine made me love it all on its own. I see most people doing channels all use Judi etc. I never see anyone using Singer.

Very sweet apron.

You mentioned that you learned to sew on an older machine. I, too, learned on an older machine. Mom’s Singer Golden Touch & Sew (aka “Touch & Throw”). The reason they were nicknamed Touch & Throw is because they had a terrible reputation, and deservedly so. I hated that machine. Thankfully, my grandmother had a Singer 99 that was a comparative dream to sew with. I inherited it, and still love to sew with it. ☺️ Edit: I never got to my point! Lol! Older machines are not always the best. I do think you should always know the pros and cons of your model, regardless of era, and definitely test drive any machine you want to purchase from a dealer. If you buy from an estate sale, ask them to let you plug in the machine, pull that scrap fabric you brought along to the sale (just for this purpose), and give it a go. If it isn’t well maintained, if it doesn’t feel comfortable to you, don’t buy it. And I would not buy an old machine without a good understanding of sewing machines in general, as they require special maintenance. If you don’t, you could end up with a Touch & Throw, and it’ll put you off sewing forever.

Absolute genius !!

Could I use pre made bias binding tape? Or will that change things too much? Thanks

This is an awesome video! I'm curious to know how you would reverse engineer putting the whole pattern back together on a pattern purchased as a pdf that is set up on the print tiles????

Black magic, I’m literally always so amazed at how insanely amazing the results are of people who can sew

As a 6 footer, I need a tutorial that makes the jeans grow longer 😩😩😩

Real beginner here, thank you so much for helping me start my journey!❤

I'm not understanding the back part of the bodice, I am using your dream frock pattern and if I sew two side back bodice pieces either side of only one back bodice piece won't it be too small as we are missing a complete section of bodice, also it's not sitting properly, because the end bodice piece has a slight angle, do I trim it? I've watched your video over and over but what I have looks nothing like your back bodice @ 4:45.

I've had my Quantum Stylist for about 6 years. I take care of her and she takes care of me. I find my Stylist is very quiet. It sews like my mom's $2000 Babylock.

Awesome!! I have some flags that need mending 👍👍

Im confused, make them bigger?

Super cute. Also delicious grocery picks 😂 coconut water, annies mac, acorn squash

OMG! Wow!

I bought some really cheap oversized shorts from Abercrombie a while back. I just took out 8 inches worth off waist out of them and they fit me perfectly. Thank you so much!! It only took a 2 podcasts worth of time :)

all you need are needles, thread, Pins, and the scissors. Messuring devices can vary and seem rippers/snips are not as necessary

Best picket tutorial I've seen!!! Thanks!

Instead of modifying the cups smaller can I just use a smallest cup size from the pattern?

Thanks for posting it helps no end, and stops spoiling fabrics, we could do with more from you.

While I am really grateful that you are willing to educate us on this, I found this very hard to follow because you speak quickly with little intonation and after afew moment it just went blah blah blah line , blah blah blah line etc etc. I totally own that this is my brain and it’s short comings, but it would be great to have this level of knowledge and expertise communicated in a way that takes into account that if you don’t already know this stuff, it’s a lot of detail and newness. I hope this feels constructive and not just knocking you down, I don’t mean to do that.

The quality of the pins matter. You don't want them breaking and risk having a hard-to-see and hard-to-find needle lost somewhere in your home. You wouldn't want to find it by accidentally stepping on it. Cheap pins are more likely to fall apart/have the colored ball at the end detach. It may be a little more pricy but it's well worth having you from a serious injury.

I just realized that I used a Pellon stabilizer for my facing, and lo and behold, the instructions that are wrapped around the stabilizer in the bolt are made of… TISSUE PAPER! I’ll be saving those instructions now, just so I can use them under my delicates. 😊

new beginner sewer here. Love the step by step! Thank you! The Coat is beautiful!

Just came across your channel. I want to learn how to sew and your tutorial is just fabulous <3 keep it up!

Half dutch here too¡!!

How do you like the singer quantum stylist? Since how many years are using it

Oh I love pepper beautiful ❤❤❤

Wow, this was so easy to follow. Thank u a new subscriber 😅😅😅 now I can make my style of t-shirts at 75 yo I want 3/4 sleeves and higher necklines. I'm so happy.❤❤❤❤

So pretty! Music is a little too loud to hear your words.. .

Bernina’s are excellent machines . I suggest you visit a retailer and ask questions. Each machine is worth the cost.

What Bernina sewing machine you can recommend?

Computerized plastic Sewing machines don't last.. Not repairable or cost a lot of money to be repaired. Annoying with the tools and are not strong..

Seriosuly, sewing among all other endeavors (knitting, crochet, beadweaving, etc.) has brought me to my KNEEEEEEEES. It turned out soooo cute!!!!

Youre a gem.

Thnx helpful & I have a helper too! ❤

I can't find the step for the sides. Specifically, where you attached the zipper side partially. I bought your pattern and I am trying to make it. Where can I ask questions?
