    Would love a beginning video on inserting sleeves, putting in zippers ( invisible or not) or cloning an existing piece. This is great!!!

      I don't have a zipper video at the moment but I will definitely be doing one in the future! I do have a video on sleeves called "How to sew a set-in sleeve". I did a video on copying a men's button down too. It's called "why your knockoff sucks". I plan on expanding more on cloning clothes, but I hope those 2 videos help you out! If you want something more specific than what those offer, let me know!

    Awesome awesome awesome video! Thank you so much for this. As a newbie just thinking about the stitching and the line up makes me anxious but I love this practice suggestion because I can gain confidence w/o wasting thread. Makes practicing with thread that much better. Keep up the good work.

    Thank you, this came at the right time! A video suggestion I have is about all kinds of fabric! What fabric works to create whatever garment with a lot of visual examples and tips to sew particular fabrics.

    • @TheAwlNighter1
      @TheAwlNighter1  Před 3 lety

      That's a good idea! I don't have a huge variety of fabrics at the moment, but I'll look and see what I can do. Either way, I'm adding it to my list of videos to do! Thanks!

    Fantastic! Please make more very basic beginner friendly videos. Do you have any suggestions on how to get control over the pedal? I’m using a singer simple and it feels way too fast for me. 😞

    • @TheAwlNighter1
      @TheAwlNighter1  Před 3 lety +1

      Honestly, sewing on paper helped me get comfortable with the speed of an industrial machine the most. Also, I try to focus on doing short spurts instead of keeping my foot on the pedal the entire length of a seam. If practice isn't helping much, look and see if you can purchase a speed control foot pedal for your machine, and if all else fails get a needle guard to make sure you don't sew through your fingers!

    I am ashamed to ask, I am so new to sewing that I don't know what the bias means or how to find the grain of the material. Could you please do a video on that?

    So you stare at the foot's line instead of the needle?

    • @TheAwlNighter1
      @TheAwlNighter1  Před 3 lety

      This exercise is to help you get used to sewing tight turns and moving the fabric around so I'm sewing directly on the line by looking at the line on my foot. When you're sewing a project with seam allowance, you'll use the guides on the sewing machine plate.

      Its the Husqvarna Epic! It's a sewing and embroidery machine which is why it's so huge!
