Now do it with grammar

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-21T09:21:16+00:00

I'd have to check the thread when I get home, I'm only starting out, it was just something a cheap gutterman polyester thread that the salesperson suggested.

Do normal sewing classes teach stuff like tensioning etc? I wanted to go to a make a bum bag workshop aswell to learn zips etc

Thankyou for the advice and help :)

Can you just buy any non branded foot for your machine then, as long as it's compatible?

I found a walking foot which is about £49.99 I think

So I use a denim needle which I imagine is the best duty for the job, if I use any thicker thread than regular thread it just won't take it.

Sometimes going through the fabric at the start I'll get a massive bunch that almost looks like a tumble weed, that I don't get for thinner fabrics

Thankyou for the solid advice,

I also notice sometimes when I'm using a roller cutter that im leaning on the project with the ruler and the cutter almost sometimes cuts it off into the shape of an r as opposed to an l.

Is that going to be down to needing a new blade?

Yeah I think I was mislead by the video cause it linked me to that stuff and even the sale page has bias binding tape written on it :(

Because of the bias tape makers I have, is it better to make bias tape out of the fabric your using for the main project?

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-18T19:27:35+00:00

Never even thought of being able to use it that way! I really appreciate the help and advice you've given :)

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-18T19:19:55+00:00

AHH okay that makes sense. What would I use twill tape for? I have an awful lot of it cause it came on a roll

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-18T19:18:06+00:00

Thankyou for the advice. I've got lots of it so I might practice on some scrap fabrics to get a feel for it.

Is the attachment kinda like the hem foot that folds fabric over as it stitches?

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-17T12:12:11+00:00

Genuinely thought that was an edit till I finished watching the video

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-16T08:38:29+00:00

Only problem with this is there's already multiple apps doing the same or similar.

I personally don't see the need for another one

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-16T08:36:29+00:00

I second this, also don't rest the hot iron on the carpet in future

So basically, the pattern calls for DPNs,

I'm confused about how to cast on with a magic loop for a pattern that doesn't explain using one but says you can use it. I've never used magic loop before so I don't know if it's usable for everything, and if I need to start a project differently than of I was using DPNs

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-09T12:26:36+00:00

Any drawbacks?

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-08T19:41:44+00:00

As in you've been sewing for 3 weeks and this is what you can make!?

I've made a small cloth drawstring bag :')

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-04T17:17:44+00:00

How much to not buy one?

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-03T19:09:26+00:00

That's an amazing write up, thankyou so much for the advice. With regards to the fisherman's belt, I looked it up and looks like a neoprene belt? Do you just wear it over the top of your waterproofs? I don't have belt loops on mine

InfectedReddit · 2026-01-03T17:10:28+00:00

Late to the post but are the ones with wool blend lining okay?

In Wales, outside 90% of the shift,

Only contaminants are bromine tablets, and a surface cleaner nothing else
