Just got onto your channel as I bought a Husqvarna Viking s25 combo machine. Must say I love it. It does take around 5 minutes to convert, but having all the tensions set automatically is a true blessing. And so is the “Sewing Advisor” which will change all tensions, stitch length and differential feed according to the fabric type I choose. It makes it all very easy.

I just discovered your channel. I have bought the brother 2 weeks ago and yesterday I was sewing for the first time with it. I am really in love with it. Since I already own a brother sewing machine and a serger it was a no brainer to get the coverstitch. My first piece that I finished with it just feels so amazing!

Hello from Ireland and thank you for this very interesting series of coverstitch videos. I actually had the Brother machine that you refer to CV3550 and although I had great hopes for it...I decided to return it and it was too frustrating to fine tune it to make it work. There was more adjusting than actual sewing and I don't have time for it. It's a beautiful piece of equipment, but very fiddly and requires a lot of patience and love, which I didn't have. I'm sure many ppl would be delighted with it, especially for the top stitch option, I wasn't. Since then I'm a happy owner of Babylock Gloria (Triumph in US) and this is how driving P1 or Bugatti must feel. It's smooth, precise and works out of the box. No adjustments needed, operating it is a dream. It doesn't have any of those common coverstitch issues and I'm just a beginner in sewing and even more so in coverstitching. Not a single skipped stitch since I got it few weeks ago. I can't recommend it enough, but I understand that price might be an issue. Hope this helps someone. Thank you again for all the info and research that you put in your videos. Marta

Marta Slupska Hello, there. Just paid $599 for a Janome 1000cpx Coverpro at Amazon. I am still under the return window. I was really looking for Babylock prices but must rely on the Internet because there are no dealers close to us. Didn’t want to provide my email or phone as requested by dealers on-line because I get plenty spam and robot calls as it is. May I ask what is the baseball price that you got from your dealer for the coverstiitch?

To help the foot petal stay put, I attached the wide (abt 2” wide) Velcro to the petal (1 side) and the other side to the carpet (or floor). Measure the length of the petal, use about 3-4”, in order to get the best grip. It stays put and doesn’t move around. With the petal being rather cheap and having no weight to it, the Velcro made it work! ✂️

I love my Brother 3550CV double side coverstitch machine! A two of my sergers can convert to coverstitch but having a stand-alone coverstitch machine is the best if one often makes garments. The double side coverstitch machine is great to embellish garments, too. Too many people under-use their coverstitch and serger machines! This is a great video and I hope it motivates people to learn to use their coverstitch and overlocker machines to their full potential. Thank-you. I hope to read your book.

Hi Johanna. You seem to be on the right track. More cover stitching information is really needed and to obtain that info. one has to search and search some more. Would be great especially for the new sewist to have a good comprehensive source. Am sure you will do a great job. I have an Ovation and I highly recommend it. I bought it about 3 years ago and haven't looked back. The possibilities are endless especially as there are so many decorative threads available. Have used it with knits, cotton type wovens, wools, denims, canvas and even burlap. Usually if I am having difficulties, have found it has been user error and there is a great video explaining how to recheck settings, etc. and good user guide which came with the machine. Always an easy fix. I have fewer of these moments now. The secret is to learn your machine! I don't have any problems with threading and changing the functions. Hope this helps. Cheers. JoAn

I have the Bernina 1260 as well and couldn’t agree more that the pedal is superior. I did see where a replacement of this pedal is $600 so I made sure to keep the cat away from chewing the pedal cord. I have a Brother 2340 CV coverstich and it has a cheap lightweight pedal that might as well be an on/off switch with regards to speed. Reminds me of my first kid’s sewing machine I had in kindergarten. The Brother machine for the price has performed well enough but I doubt I would ever even attempt to run layers of denim or heavier weight wovens through it. I have an industrial cylinder machine for leather stitching and it shocks you just how much motor is needed to plow through multiple upholstery weight fabrics or leather. Problem with all industrial machines is you need a servo motor to run them requiring an under table mount and a big foot print in your studio. I plan on ordering your book, in my Amazon wish list. Thanks for sharing, sandy

As a videographer I hope you don't mind me mentioning that your white level on the videos is too high. It makes the footage too bright and hard to see any detail especially on a white machine or a light fabric. You can adjust it in your video editor, but best to do it in your camera settings if using one with those options. Oh, another easy way to reduce brightness is put a filter over your light, or move the lighting farther away. Best Regards to you, Mary

I’m hoping that if I can conquer a), b) will become easier, so really, really looking forward to your book. Would love to see some follow on videos! Thanks! P.S. Oh.

Your information is quite helpful. I don't have a coverstitcher yet and hope to get one soon. Still don't know which one to get. Have you used the brother one much more? What would you recommend? Also what was the name of the Facebook groups? Thanks again

Hello Johanna. I have admired your wealth of knowledge when it comes to coverstitching for quite some time. I have a question that may have a simple answer: In the manual for my Brother 2340 coverstitch machine, it indicates to that the pressure knob for your presser foot should be lowered for thicker fabrics and should be raised for thinner fabrics. This seems counterintuitive to everything I was taught while using a regular sewing machine. Can you share when you raise your pressure knob for your presser foot and when you lower your pressure when using your coverstitch machine? I think my manual may be wrong. Your answer would be greatly appreciated as this has been bothering me for quite some time.

A lowered pressure knob means higher pressure, which is what you'll need when sewing over thicker fabrics and layers. So the manual is correct, and it will make a huge difference when sewing over binding and other bulky things!
