I like these videos for “newbie” sewists.

[mahiruhanayo]

Yessss i need to learn how to sew straight lines...

[BriGuyRN]

Would love a beginning video on inserting sleeves, putting in zippers ( invisible or not) or cloning an existing piece. This is great!!!

[rodjones]

Good tutorial for me, my stitches be all over the place.
Thank you 😁😷👍♥️

Awesome awesome awesome video! Thank you so much for this. As a newbie just thinking about the stitching and the line up makes me anxious but I love this practice suggestion because I can gain confidence w/o wasting thread. Makes practicing with thread that much better. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the video. I never thought of using paper like that. Great idea. 😀

[lauragiletti]

This is very cool. A good way to improve my machine control. Thank you!

[riotjohnson]

I really loved your A to Z series by the way. I heavily reference back to it!

[firewordsparkler]

Oh this is so helpful! Going to try this tonight.

[sheliwalker]

Ooh, I feel like this will be helpful since I'm just starting. Going to get some paper and a marker right now!

[riotjohnson]

Thank you, this came at the right time! A video suggestion I have is about all kinds of fabric! What fabric works to create whatever garment with a lot of visual examples and tips to sew particular fabrics.

Fantastic! Please make more very basic beginner friendly videos. Do you have any suggestions on how to get control over the pedal? I’m using a singer simple and it feels way too fast for me. 😞

So what is up with YouTube? It is 11 p.m. on Saturday August 15th and I just got my notification, yet you posted this three days ago.
Hmmmm🤔🤔🤔

[jessannchittum]

Omg my circle. 😂 I have lines down tho

[janicewoods]

I am ashamed to ask, I am so new to sewing that I don't know what the bias means or how to find the grain of the material. Could you please do a video on that?

[OOoKarmaoOO]

So you stare at the foot's line instead of the needle?

[queen_judgypantspft]

What machine is that? Looks like it costs the earth 😁
