beginner simple sewing techniques: how to hem and how to finish a seam

missevolution.weebly.com or http my blog chantellefashion.blogspot.com beginner simple sewing techniques how to hem and how to finish a seam very easy this is a little help for beginners i how this helps :-) If you're using a standard sewing maching and trying to reconstruct t-shirts, you'll want to use a zig-zag or stretch stitch. The zig-zag allows the stitch to stretch with the fabric, so it doesn't break when you try to get your newly reconstructed t-shirt on or off. If you plan to be sewing a lot with stretch and knit fabrics, you might want to consider investing in a serger or a overlock machine to finnish your seams. A serger is a special sewing machine that uses 3, 4, or 5 threads. It trims off the seam allowance and sews "around" the seam, locking the edges to prevent rolling and fraying. A serger is very well suited to sewing stretch fabrics because it's stitch allows for a lot more stretch than even a zig-zag stitch. but this video just shows how to finnish a seam without a serger. :-)

Large Machine stippling by a beginner

Machine stippling for beginners by a beginner. I've only been quilting for a year and I wanted to share my stippling video -- I'm not the greatest and I'm sure elitists would say it's not stippling at all, but rather "meandering" however I'm pretty pleased that I've come this far and wanted to share with other beginners and tell them DON'T BE AFRAID! It will look nice in the end, I promise! LOL SO much of what I learned I learned from Leah Day at DayStyleDesigns.com or check out her quilting vids at her YouTube channel: lcvday

DIY: Decorative Heart Pillow

This project took me about an hour. Written Directions: You will need: - pencil, eraser - drafting paper - sewing needle - red thread - red satin fabric (half a meter for two pillows) - pins - scissors/rotary tools - seam ripper (just in case, optional) - marking tool - measuring tool - stuffing (I got mine at Walmart) 1. Draw out the heart shape that you'd like. Add your preferred seam allowance with a measuring tool. Make the heart even by drawing and cutting on a fold. 2. Once cut, in your heart pattern on your material well, with the grain line of the material going vertically on the heart. Cut out two pieces. (If you're not using a sewing machine, skip to step 4) 3. Surge or zig-zag stitch the edges of each heart. 4. Pin the two pieces together, right sides together. 5. Use your marking tool to mark about 5in/13cm from the tip of the heart to either side. 6. With the seam allowance you decided to use, stitch around the heart, leaving the gap that you marked open. (If you are hand sewing, you should mark your seam allowance so that you know where to sew. Keep the stitches small and close together.) 7. Clip the seam allowance along the curves of the heart and cut off excess fabric at the tip of the heart before turning it right side out. 8. Iron the edges. 9. Stuff your pillow. 10. Hand sew the gap closed.
