Can't wait to try this Abi , I just got my overlocker after watching your review of the Jaguar 2015DF . I have been sewing for a long time but never seriously thought about getting an overlocker until recently. I was thinking about getting the Lidl one but your review of the Jaguar made me reconsider. So now I am proud owner of an overlocker , cannot wait to play with it over the weekend!

Did you get the jag? I almost bought one too, but the chap on the phone was hopeless. I’ll try a different place 💕so glad to have helped.

@@AbisDen I did !. It's slightly different from the 2015DF visually, the needle tension dials are round but the guy told me it's exactly the same in everything else. Got it for £249 with a free Jaguar bag.

@@AbisDen Do you think I'd be able to thread the Jaguar with arthritic, gnarling hands? I manage sewing and embroidery machine ok now that I have the brother easier hoops, and push lever threader. I was really struggling with the 1250.

I bought the Lidl overlocker last week - my first overlocker- so been watching a lot of your videos. I tried a three thread rolled hem today and it came out great. I've been making lots of leggings for my daughters 😄 - so easy! I'm addicted! Can't believe I've been sewing 20+ years and never bought one earlier! Hoping to try out this flatlock stitch soon 👍

Thank you, I really like the way you go into the why's and wherefore's so I can really understand what's happening, as I'm a new overlocker owner. Really love my Jaguar 489 and enjoyed watching your review of it. It's as quiet as my sewing machine which surprised me, and it's easy to thread, which, after all the horror stories I've heard, is a relief!

Thanks again Abi for a great lesson. I was struggling to understand the the stitch width..that isn't really the stitch width...that wee black button that turns and changes the width for the knife to cut...I've got it now..and this lesson I'm going to practice. I have bought some swimwear lining. I want to use it as underling in a pencil skirt, this will help reduce any lines showing through! I've got my Silver crest Lidl sewing machine..and now my Lidl Singer SO10L too...I'm getting to learn my server better with your help..thank you ..stay safe, happy sewing xx 💞

I've never used an overlocker, but I came across you and you've tickled my interest. Will watch more. My sewing machine came with a side cutter but I've not tried it with stretch fabric,. I'll try it out but I don't have differential feed so I'm not sure, I still may need one yet.

@@nannyval I've seen those side cut attachments and they look good. Not sure they'd be helpful with anything stretch. If you're into sewing, you'd definitely love an overlocker. The Singer Abi shows is a great model, and for that price, why wouldn't you, again if you're a sewer 😊

@@colin101981 I have arthritis in my hands ( waiting for operation, although covid has put a stop on it for now) so I don't think I'd be very good at threading deep into the recesses of an overlocker, they (my hands)shake amongst other things,. But I did wonder about the jaguar that Abi showed last week as the front opened right up, making it accessible. My manual tells me to make sure I use stretch stitch when using side cutter with stretch fabric, (sounds promising) so I'm going to try, but I must finish current project first though. I'm itching to try it. It worked well with cotton fabric when I gave it a try but that was well over a year ago and only a test as I went through the manual trying all the feet.

I am intrigued at what the adaptor actually does. The looper still moves so why can’t you just ignore it and not thread it?

@AbisDen 3 жыл бұрын

Needle thread tries to chain around UL and then undoes the chain the LL forms with the needle, and you end up with no chain. So you need it

@suemanning-jones9752 3 жыл бұрын

Abi’s Den Oh I see, I think! I have an older version of the Jaguar you demonstrated and I don’t think their converter fits it which is a shame as the machine itself is fantastic. I was hoping that I could work out a fix but your explanation would suggest not.
