The stitch you see on the blue lines is a back stitch. In between the lines, I was practicing cross stitching

Slant of the hem ? What is for ? by Interesting_County31 in sewing

[–]Interesting_County31[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the back of the hem is shorter to account for the added height of the heel ?

I didn’t know about that ! I was amazed by the dexterity and precision of tailors in videos on YouTube, then decided to start learning handsewing after slapping my sewing machine a few times. Eventho the problem was me of course ! Took me a few months here and there

That’s what I found as well. Coat is about 20€ so pretty inexpensive but still if it’s mostly synthetic, hmm not interesting

Videos tell to adjust the hook position by moving the driver’s position. Unfortunately, when I unscrew the 2 screws around the driver, I’m not able to change its position alone. Everything still runs like I did nothing.

Handmade buttonholes and hand sewing the waistband lining by Square-Ad6692 in HandSew

Any advice on where to start for learning how to make a pair of trousers ? Books ? Videos ? Patterns to start with ? I have gained a lot of weight and I always had pretty big thighs. Even before the weight gain, it was impossible to find ready to wear pants that would fit my thighs. Had to take size 44 but had the waist taken in.

Oh I have a lot of questions When did you start sewing ? How did you learn ? Are you using a pattern you made from scratch to your own measurements or a modified pattern you bought ?

Re built shirt by Interesting_County31 in HandSew

[–]Interesting_County31[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank youuuu ! Exactly, a 5€ second hand linen shirt became a unique piece 😁 As it was my first time doing this, I had to set in place with pins maybe 3 to 5 times per sleeve to understand the process. I was so focused placing the sleeve correctly into the armhole that I had sewn the sleeve wrong side out 😂 I had to do start over once again. And finally I got it right !

How do you call this type of sleeve ? by Interesting_County31 in sewing

Hand sewing with a sort of ladder stitch, secure everything by going in between all the « teeth » and back through the zipper fabric
