Thank you for this - I am 62 and have been sewing since I was 5. My grandma and mom taught us - my grandma’s family were tailors/seamstresses. My grandma would fly from her grave if unused a serger. This finish has always been associated with what we now call fast fashion. She made a lot of custom gowns and dresses for women in the 30s, 40s and 50s. She would never have considered serging any of those garments - it would have been perceived as tacky. She always said, why would you spend the time and money making a special garment and then not finish the inside to be as beautify as the outside. Some makers think get mad at me for my distaste for serged edges. Unless you’re pre-finishing a puffy quilted fabric so it it’s unwieldy, I see no reason to not take the extra time to properly finish a seam.

@janholman61924 жыл бұрын
Serged seams are not for couture garments. You will notice on lower priced clothing, they usually have serged seams. But, if you buy yourself a decent brand serger, you should find a quality stitch for your project. I have a Bernina which puts out a great looking stitch. The older and cheaper the machine, the less user friendly they are.
@cliftonmcnalley8469 Жыл бұрын
When I was first starting to sew in my teens, I also thought serged seams were ugly - almost as ugly as seeing pinked edges showing through to the outside of a garment. Later when I learned that servers were invented specifically to make clothing faster and cheaper. I saw no reason to change my mind. Servers are excellent for sewing knits, but I find them unnecessary for woven fabrics. For some reason with this new resurgence of home sewing, people seem preoccupied with interior seam finishes. So long as the fabric doesn't fray, the best seam finishes provide the least bulk.

@michellebyrom65513 жыл бұрын
I've stopped using the zigzag finish as it needs precise tension and placement not to bunch up the edge of the material. Unpicking wrecks the edge and the bunching spoils the smooth right side. French or felled seams are way better on light to mediumweight fabrics. Binding the edges is better for heavyweights. The extra time is definitely worth the effort in finish and longevity.
@grimsqueaker53336 ай бұрын

I have made my own clothes for over 40 years, worked in professional alteration shops and costume shops at theatre departments in colleges. All of these seam edgings are good, but what is easiest is after sewing, cut the 5/8 seam allowance down to 1/4 and zig-zag the edges together. If you are working with knit fabric, FIRST SEW the zig-zag edge 1/4" from the seam, and THEN CUT the excess off. It makes it easier. If you look at "store bought" clothes, they are done with 1/4" seam allowances that are overcast together and then pressed to one side. Zig-zaging the edges is the simplest. Every place I have worked where they have had a Serger, it breaks down OFTEN (jams, misfeeds, etc.), and you end up having to use the sewing machine anyway! In a theatre department costume shop, you need to sew the seams "open" and leave them at 5/8" because you will have to adjust them to fit different actors that will wear them over the years. Otherwise, you do not NEED to leave the seam allowances pressed open.

I bought an interlocking machine a few years back and have not used it much, I prefer to finish by hand. I learned seam finishing by taking items apart over the years and studying how they were done. There was no internet when I learned most of my sewing skills, I had a mother who knew the basics. Now it is so easy to learn so much from these lovely videos. I have used most of these seam finishes over the years and had no idea of their names. I had a wonderful needlework teacher at the age of 11 upwards who was Polish and an ex concentration camp prisoner, she was constantly asked about her number tattoo on her arm bless her. She told me not to keep my fabric pins poked into my sweater as I might injure my breasts! I am nearly 70 and still sewing.......mainly masks at the moment.

Hi! I'm new to your channel. I started sewing again because I wanted to masks to give to local hospitals. I remembered how much I used to love sewing so I've been on KZfaq looking for other projects and stumbled across your video. Thank you for sharing these seam finishes with us.

Interesting watching your video! I've been teaching these techniques for many years and just fun to watch someone else sew these techniques! Enjoyed your video!

How about the "Bernadette Banner"? When you finished your seams by hand? Lmao

Great video! I'm not entirely clear in the difference between Hong Kong and Bias Bound? They seem the same? Also can you do a video on using these finishes in armholes and gathering areas and layered areas and tight corners? That's what's hurting my results at present. Thank you! Subscribed.

Thx for sharing. I haven’t sew much in approx. 33 years. Remember some things, forgotten a lot. Therefore I appreciate the reminders.
