i've been waiting for YEARS for instruction on embroidery using a 'regular' sewing machine. i want complete control in order to express my original designs. Christopher Nejman's teaching techniques are truly excellent as he combines great design examples with CLEAR language about what he is doing step by step. I can't wait to see ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS Christopher because they are not the usual "crafty" cheap looking ( disposable) stuff. Apologies to crafters, but executing your own precious work is a different matter.
Well worth the watch. I typically don't watch 40+ minutes videos on sewing, but this 40 minute video taught me more than the years my mother spent teaching me (sorry mom). I feel like I've just stepped out a university class after watching this video. His advice is really solid, I had flimsy wooden embroidery hoop in my amazon cart and after watching this I realize I will need something stronger.
"Right away - without practicing" Very wise precautionary words. And like driving - it takes practice and the ability to see what is ahead of you. (14:Min),
Thanks for helping all of us on our various levels of experience and journeys. At 60+ I can agree 100% , practice is essential.
Best video for teaching how to embroider on basic machine. You are a great teacher, clear instructions and video. Thank you.
Christopher, thank for sharing your technique.I've been following you for several years now and you're a fantastic teacher.
Really greeat! I am an absolute beginner of machine embroidery and you have inspired me to start with metallic threads. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing your talent with us. I have had 3 expensive sewing machines, and I gave them to my daughter. Now, I am using an inexpensive electronic model and didn't believe that I would ever be able to do free motion embroidery. Now, I know that I can and am anxious to try it. Again, thank you so much for sharing your talents.
LOVE the results!! I so appreciate you sharing your techniques in this series under development, Christopher. You have a wonderful way with people and providing instruction with your 'can-do' attitude. Thank you!!
Thank you so much. I have been sewing and doing embroidery for 40yrs. But I have been nervous of doing machine embroidery....your precise instructions have encouraged me to try. 😊
Beautiful free motion embroidery can even be done on an antique Singer Treadle Sewing Machine. Thank you for an awesome video!
Christopher, thank you so much for generously sharing your knowledge. I'm only a few minutes into this video and already inspired, AND loving every second of it. I've never done any machine embroidery before and definitely going to give it a try now!
I have always wanted to learn this , thank you for leaving your corporation behind the desk job, and sharing your talents with this beautiful world.
AT LAST someone who sounds as though they know what they are talking about. Thank you - for your clear, concise and instructive video....

This was so amazing. I want to put it on something right away. All the things you create are just absolutely beautiful and inspiring.
Well, as a florist I can appreciate the passion you have for what you are doing. I have that passion for weddings. Due to the economy being the way it is there are not many jobs out in my field and my 2nd passion always has been sewing and knitting. So this is what I am doing now. The flowers with the "fuzzies" are the Dandelions. I love your videos and I am going to build a worktable around my sewing machine. Your videos are great. I bet your wife loves what you do.
The flower you just embroidered, but didn't know the name of, it is the common dandelion!! Enjoyed the video, so much.....Just beautiful!!
Wow! I never knew this could be done. I found your videos by chance, I am a new subscriber. Beautiful work with clear instructions. Thank you
That is one of the most beautiful sewing machines I've ever seen...!
I would like to say thank you for a very informative video ,I have learned more in the past 30 mins ,Than 20yrs of freehand embroidery ,now all I have to do is put it into practice so thank you once again , much appreciated
i remember my mom doing this in 1983. she was doing this on her own before the Internet.
Your video is wonderful! It goes to show you are never too old to learn something new. I did. Thanks, Lesli
This was quite exhilarating watching the outcome of the small unique piece of Art. I've always wondered how it was done and I was just scrolling through CZcams and found your video. Thank You for sharing your ideas and tips with us. ❤❤❤❤❤💯💯💯💯
Beautiful! Almost looks like its real that it could make a hummingbird alight on it Thank you for showing the video and doing all that labor of love.
‘You are what you Love’ and it shows, thank you for this video, i just bought an Embroidery Only machine yesterday, BUT, I wish I saw your video first as I have 3 sewing machines.
You are an adorable wise teacher!! Thank you for sharing these basic techniques!!!
I tried doing this on an old Singer model 66 with instructions from an antique Singer Art Embroidery book and had the hardest time controlling the needle! You make it look so easy.
Thank you for taking the time to share your passion. I feel inspired and happy to experiment with beautiful metallic threads. My own passion for learning new techniques has led me through some unexpected avenues.
I’ve been searching for a computer embroidery machine for months but not only found that they are thousands of dollars I just couldn’t find one. After searching for videos on how to do free machine embroidery I found you and may I say, you’re the best! You explain stet by step and in English!!! I was also convinced that an old Singer machine would best and hope to find one. Thank you, thank you Christopher and look forward to all your video and books.
I would like to know the namecor brand of that machine. The outcome if your job is do nice. I'm also obterested in joigning your sewing group.
Spectacular!!! I love it. I've never seen this technique before. I'm very new to machine embroidery.
I am so thrilled to have watched your video. You gave some very strong advice and great recommendations that I feel confident to practice these techniques myself. I can’t wait to watch this again and get started. Thank you, thank you!!!💞
Christopher you have outdone yourself on this video. I'm so happy I came across you. I will be following you on youtube. thank you so much for doing this.
Thank you, it is a great genre of sewing to learn. Gets one back to basics.
I just hadn't realised that this was possible on a standard sewing machine. My head is now bursting with ideas and I'm going shopping for a embroidery foot etc. Hopefully the beginning of some great experimentation - the best bit of learning a new skill.
Oh, I love this thread. I'm going to confess that almost everything I sew I use this thread. You might ask why, because it slips through the needle without catching and hardly a drop of fuzz. I love how it looks.
Thanks for a well-done free motion embroidery lesson, You're a very talented instructor. Looking forward to more sewing videos.
So the old Singers work really really well. So they should keep making them like that too.
I am trying to expand my skills. I'm a longarm quilter and avid piercer . Thank you for your videos. I love your style and teaching style.
i want to cry your work is just beautiful and i just finished embroidering a bag and i wished i had watch this video first
THANK YOU for sharing your talent & expertise with us! SO GRATEFUL!
Hi Christopher...I'm so happy I found you. I have been sewing as a child I learn by watching my mom sew, Now of course I'm an adult still love sewing. Love your tutorials, I make doggie clothes and would like to learn to make my own embroided initials on my clothes. Watching this is just amazing to me that I don't have to spend money upgrading my machine "Who New" thank you for that! looking forward to part 2. Thanks again your an inspiration!
What a lovely generous man you are going to so much trouble to share you gift with us. Thank you so much.
I don't see part 2 either. Grandmother gave me her 1957 Singer Slantomatic back ine the 70s before she passed away. I have used it many years and recently had it cleaned and restored by a professional. I was excited to find your video because I want to do some small projects with free motion technique...my own sketches to stitches.
I'm a newbie and came across your channel. Love the metallics. Your teaching is so very helpful. Thank You :)
I never thought about doing this. Thank you I have learned a lot from watching our programs.
I liked this. Very informative and I liked how you reminded not to rush and practice on scrap and you didn't go too fast, you were consistent. Thank you
Your tip about the bobbin thread was fabulous. i am brand new at this. working on my first project, not really knowing what i am doing and have NOT ONCE has the bobbin broken. thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much.
sarahleah hankes All the tips are very important. That ergonomic tip is really important too. I did as he said and practised and it sunk in really quick why. Even the sounds he said to listen to was very key to my fast progress. What got me hooked was when he mentioned in other countries they use really old singers. I looked right over at my 1893 singer in the treadle base and said to myself, ok I will try this!! I tried and watched the video again and picked up more tips that I forgot.
Stunning work, Christopher! Thank U so much for sharing your talents and passion. Life is so short... Danielle
Oh my gosj... I just came across your channel and love you. I have forever wanted to do machine embroidery and to scared to try. Your videos are amazing and fully educational. I can now finish an heirloom quilt I started 16 years ago for my daughter. Thank you.
What a wonderful video, excellent demonstration and so professional, many thanks.
Thank you so much I am working on a wedding dress and will try this technique, but will rehearsal first. You give so clear instruction well done
Awesome results and thank you for the tips and techniques. I learned this years ago on my mechanical machine too. I used a preprinted fabric with pansies on it for color guidance.
Thank You so much for these videos I love working metallic's I have a singer Embroidery Machine just there entry level Machine but I break so many needles and thread nests I have almost given up until I saw these videos
I am new to watching youtube. i have been sewing for years, thought
I am thrilled to learn about embroidery, and myself getting excited about learning more. thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you for this delightful video. I do have an embroidery machine , but this video has shown me what I could do, with practice , without it! I shall certainly give it a go and as you say practice, practice, practice.
Wow look so beautiful, shine like gold chains, you are a great teacher , thank you so much for sharing.
It's nice to hear you talk about how well the old mechanical Singers work - you're right!
what a wonderful video. Can't wait to try this out and I'm looking forward to part 2. Thanks!
very nice demonstration, thank you, I am now encouraged more.
Where is part 2? I'm needing to learn this!
Huge respect to this guy, so glad I came across his channel, talk about professional content
this was fantastic...I liked the part of wrapping the inside hoop...can't wait for part two.
Very good. All about the subject and not the presenter! Nice and concise, and very helpful. Thank you.
Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for your video!
OMG this is absolutely fabulous! I've never done free motion simply because I've been totally intimidated. Your instructions are so detailed and precise, I think I may be willing to give it a try. I just subscribed to your channel. Thanks for the great video.
This technique also works quite qwell on my ol' treadle machine.
While there is no facility to use two spools, this is easy to get around - instead of using two spools use two bobbins instead of spools, one on top of the other.
Like the man said - ya gotta think outside the box ...
The tip with the twill on the inside hoop is great! I didn't have twill tape but tons of scrap fabric. Some of them don't really frey, I've cut it in longer strips, wrapped my 3 (different sized) hoops and glued it at the end with a tiny drop of glue. Awesome! I don't have an embroidery foot. I embroider the way I found in a very very old singer booklet : take off the presser foot and the holder (in my case a snap on), make sure the feet in the bottom are down and off you go 😊
Very nice! I love the two threads mixed together. Just beautiful!
You have inspired me to start sewing again,thank you!
Thank you so much for this video, I have put off trying free motion for years because I thought that I wouldn't be able to do it after a couple of attempts but having watched this video I realise I was doing it all wrong, now I am thinking of applique plus free motion embroidery, must have a bash this weekend.
So much fun watching and learning so very much...Nan
Thank you for great teaching. So concise and easy to follow. Love it!
Thanks for your tips . didn't know about the bobbin threads.😊. 😁 beautiful .
This was amazing. Such beautiful flowers you could almost touch them. Just like dandelions from my youth. He is certainly an artist. This was a fun video to watch him create such a gorgeous piece of art..
I've loved this video. Will watch again and again before I try for myself. Looking forward to getting started. Thank you so much.
What a great video, easy to understand how to do this. I'm so excited to do this on my Textima Veritas machine soon. Thank you
Chist un cientifico en arte de bordar felicidades por tu gran aporte a las demas personas y siguenos brindando enseñanzas que seguiremos apoyando GRACIAS
After watching this video I am definitely going to try this. Your video explains things so well. Thank you
Thank you for sharing, i Really enjoyed watching. Can`t wait for Part 2,
This looks like so much fun!
so that's why I break needles, because I am moving my hoop quicker than the needle repetitions. Thank you Christopher, love listening to your banter.
Awesome Christopher.. I haven't worked with metallic thread much and just for some basic machine embroidery. Never have really tried the free motion embroidery but now I will give it a try. Have to get me some metallic needles and will keep watching your videos and see what I can do. thanks...
Hi Christopher, I love your free motion embroidery video. Can you please make that part 2 video LOL I love learning and I'm on hold right now. I want to learn from YOU. I just got the Singer Quantum Stylist 9960. Just so I could do everything on it. I'm still looking for an old Singer. Boy they are hard to fine. LOL. Thank you for all the GREAT video's.
I am so excited and I love your machine. I am going to practice the machine embroidery. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this video. Learned alot. About the hoop and also about the top pressure release. Didnt think about that.
Wow what a nice tutorial thank you for sharing all this great information.
Beautiful Work! Nice video. I can't wait to try it out on my Singer 104A machine!
Absolutly stunning! Given me a new way to embroider!
Love watching your embroidery, it's inspiring..
Always learn new things from you Chris I wish I lived close to u to have one on one teaching
That is so pretty. Great video, thanks a million.
Thank you for what you do, and you sharing your craft and skills.... have always been interested to do embroidery. Thanks
Wow!! I have that embroidery foot too.....I'd be a real Newbie at this project. Thank you very much. Beauty
hi Christopher Great idea on the extension table. I just recently stumbled on your youtube videos. I really enjoy your tutorials. I thought i would offer One little trick when cutting out the material to prevent it from chipping. If you place painters tape or masking tape works too on the material in the area you will be cutting and then draw your lines along the tape; when cutting through the tape and material it will keep it from chipping the top of the melamine as the jigsaw slices through the material. Little trick i had see when working in the construction industry, plumbers and cabinet persons use it all the time when cutting out counter tops for sinks or other appliances to prevent the top from chipping.
Thank you for the clear and concise instructions!
That was great, Christopher - thank you - look forward to part two!
الله يعطيك الصحة
Thank you for giving us this lesson.
Thank you so much I will practice till I drop. Thanks for all the details and the tips on the table.
Look forward to seeing Part two.
Awesome! You make it look so easy. I tried this on my own years ago but looking at a sewing book on free motion embroidery really doesn't teach much.Watching you I have a much better understanding and I'm going to try again!
AMAZING! everything you said about this tutorial is true and correct. I know from growing up with an amazing lady who did a lot of embroidery works in her time, traditional and exquisite. thanks for sharing this video.
This is such a GREAT video. I too have always wanted to do free motion embroidery but thought it would be hard. I can see that with practice it should be fairly simple. Thank you so much for your helpful techniques. Love that simple design that turned out way more than elegant!
