as soon as you said "take it out of the box and plug it in" i knew i was in the right place.
😆 Absolutely! We’re taking it step by step.
♥️👏🏽
Another "I bought a sewing machine during the pandemic, and it stayed in the box" person here. I've been so intimidated by it for years now. But after watching this video, I think I've found a channel I can watch and learn along with, since there aren't any in person 'sewing club' or 'community class' sessions for easily intimidated types like myself lol Thank you for being detailed without going off on tangents. A lot of people when they're trying to teach beginners will skip steps because they've forgotten all the things they actually had to learn along the way. Assume nothing is previously known, a step is never obvious enough to skip verbalizing, and never talk down while explaining. 👍
You're not alone. I did the same thing and it's been sitting in a box for a year
Same! She breaks it down to be less intimidating.
I also purchased during the pandemic. I sewed masks for my family and friends before they were available the public. 😂
i love this but I don't have this kind of machine, and I need it where can I I find it am in Zambia , I love the way you teach
It's actually a bad idea to leave an unused sewing machine in the box for a long time. When you get a new sewing machine you need to test it asap so the return date doesn't pass if it is faulty. At least test it to see if it stitches and that the timing is good ect even if you don't want to make anything yet.
I bought a sewing machine December 2021. I am just now taking it out of the box 8 June 2024. This is my first lesson because I wrote "sewing" on my To-Do list for today.
Yayyy, that’s a big step! Congrats 🎉
Just got a sewing machine for Christmas. A hobby I have wanted to learn since I was very young. Was nervous about trying to learn and went through so many videos, but yours is the one that spoke to me! You are so clear and easy to understand! You speak at the speed I needed and show every step! I really needed this, thank you 🥹♥️
One of the most helpful vids ive watched. Got my machine 3 days ago, watched multiple vids & read the manual but NO ONE except this lovely lady explained ALL the little things to get you going. Not over-explained so that ur overloaded but def filled in a few blanks i couldnt find answers to elsewhere, including the manufacturers "beginners guide"!
it took me two weeks jist to learn how to string the machine ,but thank god for CZcams I'm sewing like a pro now
Lady Blue, you are the greatest sewing teacher!! Clear, loud, concise and precise, Old guy here that i kind inherited an vintage kenmore machine. after seeing about 20 30 videos, I found your videos and im glad I did, 5 minutes ago, i stitched for the very first time, a straigt line on 2 pieces of scrap, materials following ur instructions!! Yeah... thank you so much ill be watching more to get better at this. Blessings.!!
That’s awesome!!
@BlueprintDIY yes thanks to you , Sunday yesterday, I patched 2 pair of denim jeans, Sew name tapes on my military jackets ( two of them) and today I stitched elastic waist band of pajama pants I was gifted for Christmas.
Thank you Dear, God bless!
Nice tutorial! I am a union Sheetmetal Worker of 40yrs getting ready to retire in February. I got a sewing machine for Christmas. Getting ready to thread this thing up and give it a go.
I actually sewed my first stitch today!! Yaaaaay!!!!
Yayyy!!!
I really love that you showed different ways to practice sewing at the end. Also, the best piece of advice I ever received when I started sewing was to NOT FOLLOW THE NEEDLE. I think that most new sewists just instinctively keep an eye on the thing that is moving the fastest on the sewing machine. I've halted many projects because I couldn't sew a straight line. Glad to see more people giving this advice to newbies.
Angelina! You are a life saver!! OMG! My grandma taught me how to sew when I 14! I cant see the needle hole and have ADHD! Soooo many ideas, but panic sinks in and I am paralyzed! Have no clue where to start and become completely overwhelmed with fear then shut down. Your video was the right pace, right energy simply perfect! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
I’m so glad it helped!!
You're a very good teacher! I've taken an in person class & was still intimidated by the sewing machine. You explained it extremely well and now I'm excited to get started! Thank you!!!
Oh my word! The tutorial I’ve been waiting for.
Presented beautifully with clear instruction & no nonsense, straight to the point (no pun intended) language. Thankyou so much ❤
Thank you so much
Ive googled everything to learn how to sew your videos are the best!!
Love the step by step tutorial ❤😇
Your instructions is very clear and concise. I like the way you teach. Thank you!
I took my machine out of the closet then out of the box about a month ago and set it in my desk. You’ve motivated me to use it!! Thank you! Excited to see what’s next.
Yayyy! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Simple and to the point. No excessive talking. Very helpful. Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you for this tutorial, i have my grandmother's vintage sewing machine and I've always wanted to learn to use it, I'll try to set it up.
I love how friendly you are, makes the info sink in more😁😆😆
Thank you so much! Your videos are well explained, shot, and edited. It makes it very digestable and easy to follow for someone just getting into sewing
Angelina, you did a great job explaining how to use a sewing machine!!! I’ve been sewing since I was 10 years old; Mom taught my sisters and me how to sew. I’ve always upcycled clothing, especially thrifted stuff. I like having pieces that are different than everyone else’s. ❤️❤️Judy❤️❤️
Thanks Judy! I know sewing can be intimidating so I tried to keep it simple.
I am a new learner. I am so glad that I came across your channel. You are a great teacher! Thank you. Amen
Yayyy! Thank you 💕
You are GREAT!!! I have never sewn before, except once with hand sewing a hole in my winter hat, So I want to start, and so I am gonna pick up a cheap used machine at a thrift shop and learn, But I was not sure how to tell if the machine even works or has its parts and whatnot. You sure did help me feel more comfortable with going ahead. I find a lot of beginner videos, Yet they all seem to be videos for people who have some knowledge and not for people who are actually starting from knowing nothing. This is awesome. Thank you.
This is great because I haven’t touched a machine for maybe 20 years. I learned to sew on my mother’s machine. I want to buy a machine soon, but I was worried that new machines are very different. The good news is they aren’t, but you got me past my fear!🙏☮️
Thanks for the demonstration. I just got the Brother XM2701. And I just can't wait to start sewing. God bless you always. And keep up the super job. 😊
You made this SO EASY…. Subscribed!
Thank you!!!! 😊
Thanks a lot for this amazing explanation. You are the best so far I seen on CZcams. Keep the great work. ❤️❤️🌹
I keep coming back to this video for my brother lx2763 that was collecting dust for 4 years. Thanks for existing
Thank you. I needed a refresher as it has been over ten plus years since I have sewn.
Thank you so much for this video! I honestly didn't know if I'd be able to learn to sew and this video was so easy to follow along with! I'm super grateful and will be looking through your other videos as well!
Thanks! The bobbin process always gets me every time. I can’t wait to follow your instructions to get started.
Excellent job, the video was very detailed and I absolutely love how you showed multiple types of sewing machines ❤❤❤❤❤👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
God bless you!!!! Thanks for sharing this with us!!
I haven't touched a sewing machine since high school Sewing I, (60 years ago), but believe it or not, the set up part with the thread, bobbin and loading the machine with thread, all came back to me as I watched your excellent tutorial! I've been thinking of buying this particular model for the purpose of making dog mats or beds for shelter dogs. Hope I don't lose my nerve and see it through. Also, I am a new subscriber!! MANY THANKS!!
Just found your videos. Thank you so much! You helped me get started. I loved your statement, “the best sewing machine for you, is the one you are going to use!” My machine has been in the box since Christmas. I ASKED for it from my husband, but it just seemed too daunting to start. 🤦🏻♀️ …thank you for your encouragement!!!!❤️
I’m Stacey, Jeremy’s wife. I just realized my user name is his. 🤣
Hi Stacey! I’m so glad to help you get started. What are you interested in making first. Maybe I can help.
Thank you soooo so much for this video!! I have the exact sewing machine that I bought like 5 years ago and kept getting confused + kept failing so I gave up. Recently I got the urge to make some things again and found this video!!! Now I’m gonna go watch the rest of your tutorials/
Beginner videos 😊
Yayyy! I’m so glad I could help!
just finished watching the whole series and feel even more excited to start upcycling some more with the help of a sewing machine. thank you so much for your insight, help and knowledge! will definitely come back to these vids/your channel as a guide to my sewing journey thank you!:)
I’m so glad they were helpful!
New here.
I'm sooo happy I found your videos. Life saver.
Your tips are extremely helpful.
Welcome to the BlueprintDIY family! 🤗
Just started sewing and bought the Brother LX3817 sewing machine because I wanted to have a specific type of curtain in our doorways and your videos have been so helpful! I am so excited to get to know more and improve my sewing skills so I can design and make my own clothes too. Please continue doing more sewing content!!! ❤❤❤
Your opening line made me LOL because my new machine has been sitting in the Box for 5 years. Tomorrow I'm going to try to set it up.

You are a wonderful teacher! Yes, I have felt unsure about sewing because I had so many small, annoying problems which turned me off. Today, this intro, especially the bobbin part, has helped me tremendously. I will check out any & all your videos. Your manner is very reassuring, your instructions are easy to follow & your tone is very encouraging for newbies. You’re a natural. Brava!
Love this. I have had a sewing machine for years and now with some extra time I think it’s time to pull it out. Thank you!
Thank you soo much for the tutorial my best friend got me a sewing machine this past Christmas and I’ve been intimidated by it. But now with your video, I am no longer scared of it ❤
You are so welcome!
Best teaching ever thank you 🙏🏾
Thank you so much for this. My daughter just got me a sewing machine and I am fixing to go at it. I have always loved sewing. I am not a pro but my granny taught me some when I was younger.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! I’m in shock that in less than 2 days of buying a machine for the 1st time ever, I can now thread and use it. I’m no Edith Head but this is a massive achievement. This tutorial is a lifesaver. Thanks for this, it is so appreciated! ✊🏾
Yayyy, I’m so glad to help!
Thank you for this tutorial. I’m new to sewing and I’m having trouble sewing a straight line.
Omg God bless you I’ve been struggling with finding my calling until I realized I love designing 🥰my grandma was great at sewing and she passed away.. she was my heart I was young so I don’t remember much but I almost cried when I came here I wasn’t even searching for this 🥰thank you hope to meet you one day
Wow great explanation for beginners. My dream was to always create my own pieces. Though I'm in my 40s i feel like it's never too late to learn anything new. Lol Thank you!🤗🙏
No, never too late! Go for it 👍🏾
Hey Angelina I'm learning how to sewing from you good teacher ❤
OMG.. I have a Brother Strong & Tough serger that has been sitting around WAITING to be set up and used for, like, 3 years. Can you PRETTY PLEASE do a video like this for setting up and using a serger, Angelina? THANK YOU!!!
It’s already there. 😁 All Brother sergers will thread the same.

I meant to ask you if you know of any free sewing classes in the Houston area.
@@susanhemphill2261 Check your local fabric store like Joann Fabrics to see if they do them or know anyone who does.
Thank you. I would spend too much time trying to insert the bobbin as it would jam. This really helped!
I’m so glad!
Thank you so much! I'm a very nervous beginner and you were very easy to follow! I can't wait to keep practicing!
I don’t have a machine yet but this video now has me looking. I have been sewing my little projects by hand.
You are an angel for this video. I always wondered about all the elements of a sewing Machine
Thanks! I’ll let you know if I see any really good deals on sewing machines.
Great tutorial. This was a great refresher for me. It's been a few years since I used a sewing machine. I'm getting ready to get back to it. Thanks!😃
Love this, thank you! I've been a fan for years and my sewing machine has just been sitting in the box collecting dust lol
Blow that dust off and get to it, Dinner Luscious!
You can do it. I’m rooting for you! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I love you!!!! Omfg I’m so happy to know how to even put thread in this thing! I’ve been so happy, terrified & intimidated by this special gift that my grandma got me so that I could werrk my artistic bone that God gave me. Her confidence in me made me so scared to jump into this and just knowing how to even begin makes me so happy in my soul! I’m so proud of myself thanks to you! ❤️💯🪡🧵
Best beginner video I’ve seen so far thank you !
OMG, you made this seem so easy! Quick and clear. Thanks sooo much! :)
