Made a quilt jacket but it was way too big so I made the decison to seam rip it all, cut it to a smaller pattern pieces and cover the back with a lining. Worth it. I love it!
Pattern : Cardamom Jacket by Sew Bake Make (Version A but cropped a little)
Materials: Premade Quilt, Cotton Lining, Premade Cotton Bias Tape
Wondering a new needle reccommendation.
​
Hello all,
I've recently made a quilted tote bag and when I sewing through all the layers for topstitching, I broke two needles trying to sew through it all, before giving up.
​
I was using a 80/12 Universal needle, I was wondering if there is a needle reccommendation for a needle that can go though all the layers efficiently.
​
Context:
I used quilting cotton and wadding for the quilting. When I was sewing the topstitching, it was roughly 5 layers (the lining, the strap, the outer as well as the wadding).
Hi, whenever I use bias tape, it never goes over the stitch line like i know its supposed to do, even though I am using the correct seam allowamce. Should i just make the seam allowance smaller?
Can anyone give me some advice to fix the hole that has steadily grown since I caught it on something a while ago.
I was thinking of sewing piece of fabric underneath but I dont know if that will stop it from ripping further or come off when washing. Please any advice would be appreciated.
Hey, I was sewing and was fine then all of a sudden , it started stalling. Upon inspection, I noticed that the bobbin thread is getting trapped under a certain part of the bobbin, this silver part. After messing around the the dial, i realised that the silver part doesnt move at all (meaning its not jammed). Ive tried rethreading both theeads multiple times but nothing. I dont why this has happened or why it hasnt happened before. Any advice would be appreciated.
