  • If you're making a silky garment, thread loops are a great alternative to buttonholes or regular belt loops.

    I agree this is the best video I saw on this topic. You explained really clearly what you were doing and what’s more it is easy to see - good lighting and contrasting thread really helps. Thanks, I was able to make the perfect little loop for a top for my granddaughter.

    Thank you for this video! I am finishing a Regency spencer today, and the original I am basing it off if has thread loops for the closure at the wrists. In all my 19 years of sewing I have never had to make these before, so was super happy to find your very clear and concise video!

    I had not done a thread loop in many years and came to your tutorial for a refresher. When I initially learned how to do this, it was not with the doubled thread, your way is much stronge. Thanks, it is an excellent tutorial!

    Thank you for this tutorial! I knew the way it should look and I had a basic idea of how it should be done but needed the specifics spelled out. By the way, Running your thread through beeswax before you start sewing helps take out all the tangling and knotting. I know if you were not having to hold both sides down for filming, you would be able to use two hands and control the tangling. Beeswax is a great help for all hand stitching.

  • @caraid9263
    @caraid9263 Před 2 lety

    After making the first loop, you can backstitch a couple time in place that way the size of the loop is locked in, making it easier to make the second loop be the same size!

    There's a right way and wrong way to run thread. I think that's why she was fighting this thread, it was on the needle the wrong way. You can spot the difference by running the thread strand between your fingers. Rough = wrong. Smooth = right.

    Thank you ! This is what I need to finish my first project - a dress. The pattern instructions are 🤯 It looks a bit fiddly with the doubled thread. I can see myself messing that up and getting them entangled. Could I maybe just use embroidery thread instead? Or would that not be strong enough?

    • @ProfessorPincushion
      @ProfessorPincushion  Před 5 lety +1

      Yes, you could. I don't think it's as strong as regular all purpose thread and might be a little thicker but it's up to you
