ABOUT:
Hi, I'm Wendy, and I have been on a sewing journey ever since my mom taught me how to make little outfits for my dolls. I studied engineering and business, had an office job for two years, and then quit to embark on a lifelong sewing adventure on KZfaq. Subscribe to join me on the adventure, and maybe make your own clothing too! Thanks for watching ❤️

Fun fact: the Chili 🌶 at the end of the tomato 🍅 pin cushion is actually a strawberry 🍓! and it’s full of emery that sharpens your dull pins. You just have to stab the pin into the strawberry a few times!

Still biologically confusing but I'll take it! I don't think any of my pins have been with me long enough to need sharpening, they meet their end via getting bent or having the head fall off before they lose their stabby powers :(

@Goddess276 4 жыл бұрын

@@withwendy you can use it for your sewing needles as well as your sewing machine needles. That away they stay sharper for longer

Okey I looked it up, apparently they were invented in the Victorian era. Tomatoes represent good luck and good harvest, in the winter the tomatoes are gone. In that time pins needles where expensive they where part of the decor. Times have really changed! Thanks wendy learned something interesting today!!!🌶🍅🍓

Sewing seems like such a fun hobby to start! Not to mention think of all the money you can save by fixing old clothes, or making alterations to thrift store clothes! ❤️

@_commonthread 4 жыл бұрын

Christina Marie this is half true ;) I feel like if you are shopping cheap clothes like H & M, it’s often cheaper to buy, but for me I choose to buy only ethically produced clothing, so it works out to be cheaper or equal to make them myself. Fabric can be really $$$!

@toniashump5345 4 жыл бұрын

Yes it really is a fun hobby to start! Do it!!! you can find expensive clothes that have landed at the thrift store & give them new life❤️. Best thing- get a sewing machine & just start! one of my sewing teachers even had us sew the different stitches on scrap fabric so we can get a sense of the way it felt going through the machine & see the different stitches/settings.

I've been WithWendy since she was turning round-collar shirts into v-necks on her bedroom floor, and honestly now she's got this entire Streamer Girl setup with the mic and the overhead photography; I'm so proud of you. Thank you for the many years of small projects. Seeing you get frustrated but work through it anyway has been really helpful for me as well, as a kid who was always told that I must be perfect and talented, I quit easily when things aren't going my way. Seeing you share your experiences throughout the years was crucial for me to fix this behavior in me, and it became easier for me to accept that failing is just part of learning something new. So really, thanks to you and your seam ripper. I just wanna say, I want to challenge you to make a full garment using a 5$ sewing machine :)) It's one of those portable ones that got heavily advertised on TV Shopping networks in the early 2000s. I had one, and it was what I had to use when I started. It would be both funny, but also inspiring to see you finish something with a simple machine, and mostly educational about the difference between a REALLY cheap portable versus a decent beginner machine.

@juadonna 4 жыл бұрын

Don't know if you know this, but when you need to rip a seam open, here is a tip. Once you get thru the backstitch area. grip one seam allowance in your non-dominant hand's fingers, with the stitched seam running away from your body, and ease the little protected end (little bead thingy) of the ripper below the stitches with your other hand. Then carefully push the throat of the seam ripper blade away from you and into the threads of the seam. Re-grip the seam as needed, go slowly, keeping the seam slighty under tension so that you can see where the top and the bobbin threads meet. Make sure you can see the long pointy part of the ripper and keep it away from any fabric. I've been sewing for over 57 years and I just figured this out a month ago while sewing masks for my family. There is always something to learn. I enjoy your videos and your obvious enthusiasm. Keep safe and treasure your time with your loved ones.

@SmileyChip12 4 жыл бұрын

I'd argue those must haves for a sewing machine. My machine doesn't have automatic needle threading, one touch controls and the speed control is just how hard I press the foot pedal. She's also an absolute beast. I also only had a straight stitch foot for several months, and made full garments using only straight stitch. You can also technically get around not having a free arm but it is very helpful. My must haves are buttonhole settings, be that one step or 4, a free arm, big throat and a built in bobbin winder. And a metal frame/parts.

@betterwilma 4 жыл бұрын

Yea, those features are very modern and they're def not necessary. I'd say it's more important to get a powerful high-performance machine like a vintage metal frame one that can handle e.g. multiple layers of denim and has a good variety of stitch patterns for stretch fabrics. I just bought a Bernette 440 (30yo machine) second-hand and before making the purchase looked it up on KZfaq and found a video where it sews 8 layers of denim, leather and other challenging materials. I got it and yes, it works like a charm! New computerized machines are attractive and I had been wanting one for a while too, but after googling I learned that the more fancy features a machine has, the more there is to break and they just don't last as long. Just think about the life span of a phone nowadays and a Nokia 3310 20 years ago. A lot of them still work.

FYI the little chili thing hanging from the pin cushion that she showed is for sharpening the pins/needles. you stick the pin into it and pull it in and out to sharpen the pin.

I just bought fabric scissors and HO BOY I have no idea how I survived using craft scissors for the last few weeks. I also just got a machine as an early birthday gift, so this video is really helpful! I learned how to sew when I was a kid, and it's so fun to get back into it as an adult!

@liznotslow 4 жыл бұрын

I have a fix for that Ikea trash can, when it doesn't want to pop open. It's because the metal has warped out a bit, and the plastic rim around the front side isn't sitting on top of the metal perfectly. I'm talking about the plastic rim section right next to the "push" spot on the top. So if you can use your thumbs to push the metal band back in, under the plastic (it may even pop a bit, but may only be a slight movement) then the plastic will sit on top correctly, so that the latch is in the correct spot. I hope I explained that well!!

Semi Lola do it! I was in the same boat for a few years, but since discovering it I have found such an awesome sewing community! Love to Sew podcast is awesome, The Foldline channel has tons of pattern suggestions, and Instagram is the main hub for sewist community :)

thanks for the tip for the jar. I just purchased those huge spool of basic black yard and didn't think about how to place or where to place once I start using it.
