Perfect dress😍 I have a tip how to cut even stripes without drawing and measuring (great for quick small projects). Use PAINTER’s TAPE. Just find right width, stick evenly to the fabric and cut out. So easy! You can reuse the tape or even stick it back to the roll😍 I do the interlining the same way🥰

I have always ironed tricky fabrics on the wrong side and might even use a damp pressing cloth (cotton).

Here’s another tip! Keep you small, completed garment components away from your scraps. Otherwise, when you are cleaning up at the end of the day, you might accidentally throw them out. Ask me how I know this. 😅

That dress!!!❤

This green is YOUR COLOR!

You explained the technique very well! How do you recommend finishing it off so the sewing does not come undone?

It’s a reliable machine?

Great video! Thank you! ❤

This was really interesting, thank you. I think we have all bought t-shirts that have started to spin. At the other end on a visit to Madiera, many years ago now our suitcases didn't make it with us. As a result we turned up in clothes more suited to a UK January day than a warm day. We popped into town and bought a couple of t-shirts each that cost about 5 Euros each. So even, then cheap. They washed and wore really well and I'm still using one now - some 18 years later, although it is for the garden. However, in future I will take a good look at t-shirts in the store before I buy.

Love your videos, thanks

Thanks so much for sharing!!

Love the video. Good information. Do you have a video on sewing with boiled wool coats

OMG! Where did you get that beautiful lamp in the back? Thx for the video btw

Wow! Nice tutorial!💋

Fantastic tutorial!! ❤

❤❤❤❤❤ I love all your videos. So thorough and professional and sooooo helpful! This looks like so much fun and easy. 😊

Beautiful piece😍 I love the precision👌 Can’t wait to make it😻 PS Should I choose red poliester or other „plastic” fabric to make sure my „lips” will not bleed into garment?

Do you have book in Pattern Making for men's wear (tailoring)?

Hi thanks for the video, I wonder if you can help. I bought this and made a small sewing bag (2 layers of cotton fabric sandwiched with cotton batting. The hole is made and I can see it's about 1mm thick. Tbe prym poppers (plastic coloured snaps) I used (9mm) go on ok, but when closing and opening several times, the poppers (plastic coloured snaps) come off (usually one side sticking to the other), leaving one side without the male or female end. Do the bigger size poppers have longer points?

Excellent tips, especially the "paper under the seam allowance before pressing". I use a couple of long narrow envelopes, each about 1050 x240 mm in size. I glue the flaps down and use the non-flap side under the seam allowance. It's saved me a lot of unpleasant work removing the "railroad tracks" from the right side of the seam.

Thanks so much for sharing this!!

This blouse and these pants are so Awesome!! You look stunning in them!!!

Very good tips & reminders. I found out how great the edge foot was to help me top stitch. Also love the stitch in ditch foot. I almost always forget to turn speed down after rewinding bobbins.

So if I buy your course by September, 6th, it will only cost me $48.30 rather than $69? Once purchased? Do I own the information? Do I get to keep it forever? Or does the information expire after awhile?

Thank you so much

Contemporary Singer is owned and manufactured by China and are not quality machines. Get an old metal, mechanical singer manufactured in the UK or USA and have it refurbished. You will sew on it for a lifetime. Still using my mothers 1940's era Singer.

Nice work on your sewing!

Thank you so much for the wonderful explanations of how to use these feet. I have most of them but haven’t used them. Now I will!

Great video, I love taking sewing slowly

I baste to fit before sewing also.

What a beautifull dress and fabric. 💚 Thanks for the tips!

I just love listening to you talk.

Yes please 😌 a tutorial on making a coat would be wonderful 🤩

Brilliant

Great tips, Julia...thank you. Do you have any videos on altering a pattern for specific measurements? I sew for my grandson who is always in between sizes, and I've just been winging it with the patterns, but it would help greatly to know how to alter them properly. Thank you! ❤ (And the dress you made for this video is beautiful and looks wonderful on you.)

Amazing tips thank you

omg you look so classy in those pictures especially your matching hair colour with your shoes and in an contrast colour green and brownish orange. very beautiful.

I like to anchor the pockets to the waistline. It uses up a bit more fabric but they are bigger and won't flop around

People always talk about interfacing without mentioning that it shinks and can ruin your garments :( It happened to me and I couldn't understand what I did wrong. How are you suppose to pre-wash the interfacing if it has glue? I put mine in still hot water and the glue particles detached from the fabric.

Wow how have I never thought of this!

Great tip - thank you!!!

Wow! What a great and easy way to hem jeans. Thank you for sharing.

Hi, so i noticed that you tested both the Singer heavy duty and brother cs10s machine. which one would you recommend more as a beginner machine? i'm planning on sewing simple materials like polyester and sometimes denim :)

Lovely Work!

Awesome! Thanks 💕😄

I have found pretty dresses that I did not buy because the waists were too baggy, this is a fantastic fix, thank you!

I like your inexpensive tools and have all of them or similar items. When it comes to a thimble, I have several I made for myself. Just draw around your finger onto a very small scrap of leather, cut out 2 and whip stitch together with strong thread. I find it much more comfortable than the metal ones and less sweaty, also a custom fit.

What can I do when there is a bulb between the two lines of the twin needle. I tried everything with the tensions at my machine. It's a pfaff and I cannot change the tension of the bobbin.

Thank you Julija for this video. The tips are very helpful! Would you please tell me what type of steam iron you use? I’m looking to buy a professional steam iron and am researching the best type and if I need to spend $500 plus to get a decent iron. Thank you❤

It doesn't work for me, it looks like a normal seam from above and doesn't pull together, I've tried a few things with the thread tension but nothing changes, what should I do
