  6. Made some decent #sewing progress today, considering my body is still crashing hard from the #squirrel stress and I’ve gotten no sleep for the past five days!

    I setup the binding attachment on my #coverstitch machine and got the thighs on all five pairs of underwear bound. It’s a little tricky to keep an eye on the binding while adding ¼” plastic swimwear elastic, plus feeding the fabric through — all at the same time — but once everything is setup properly, it’s not too bad. @sewing

  12. The T-shirt is now finished and just in the nick of time 🌸 It was requested short so I'm hoping it fits. The neckband puckers when it is flat but I think it will stretch out when worn. At least I hope so. It looks like fine on the dress form. PS. Note to myself: Don't leave it to the day before to sew a gift 😄🪡

  17. My T-shirt project is progressing. The neckband has been sewn on with the coverstitch machine so now I need to sew on the sleeves with the overlocker and then sew the sides together.

  28. @sewing needed to get past a creative block so I sewed up a quick tank top last night. I’m very happy with the result even though I see where the binding is better on the second side because I was more thoughtful about application. A great first #coverstitch #sewing project though, and now I’m not afraid of my coverstitch machine.

  33. I was in my #sewing room at 9am today. I’m never up that early. When I looked at my watch, it was already 5pm!

    Time flew as I worked *non-stop* to get the trimmer & wiper setup on my new #coverstitch machine. The top-thread trimmer (left) was quick & easy, <5mins. But the wiper (right) took me ALL DAY to adjust properly. 0.5mm here, 0.5mm there: there’s just too much stuff down there and the tolerances are way too tight! They work now, but the wiper still needs ultra-fine tuning. Ugh! @sewing

  34. What’s a #coverstitch machine? Isn’t it just for hemming knits?

    I had compiled these photos earlier today while listing my #sewing machine for sale, but it’s also useful to see some examples of what a coverstitch machine can actually do! All by just changing how many needles you use (1, 2 or 3) and/or using attachments to make things quicker/easier! #SewingMachine @sewing

  35. if you’re sewing spandex - such as for togs, to pick a completely random example - fabric tack or glue sticks are your friend and lifesaver.

  40. i’m pretty happy with this. and i should write it down for the next time - i’ve made more than a dozen of these, and it still took some doing to figure out the elastic application.

    elastic and fabric quartered and eighthed, pinned together with roughly 1/2” overlap, and the elastic stretched during stitching to ease in the fabric.

    not perfect, but pretty good, and DEFINITELY good after 2 years!

    (and yes, penguins in christmas boxers for hanukkah.)

  45. life gets in the way. i realized i hadn’t used my coverstitch machine since we moved a year and a half ago - it was still taped up in the box.

    as much as i love it, the learning curve is steep like whoa and a nearly two year sabbatical (counting from when it was boxed up and put in a shipping container) is not fun to climb back up.

    now to finish the #hanukkah underwear.
