This was interesting. Hadn't heard of Eloflex! May have to look in to that one.
@@Musicwarmsmysoul you knew about water soluble thread? You always amaze me with your knowledge! happy holidays, Esther!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity *Chuckle!* I have quilters in my family (not my jam, buy wow do they make beautiful things! There is a quilt in every bedroom) I also used to watch Nancy Ziemann, sometimes it was the only thing on tv early Saturday mornings! Also, you so hold the keys to pattern drafting! Many thanks for that.
Awesome, Thxs so much
A steam iron will also dissolve the soluble thread.
Nancy (nee’ Luedtke) Zieman, died 11/14/2017. May she rip. She was a sewing genius, and an inspiration to millions. I can not count the many things I learned from her. Her inventions are still saving time, & making our sewing lives easier. MSQC bought her company and her products are still available. Happy sewing 🧵!
I use to watch her all the time and I didn't even sew. I'm just learning now, started by sewing christmas stockings for everyone. RIP Nancy!
She was so talented. I taped all her programs back-in-the-day. He story is so sweet too.
I keep the water soluble thread in a large pill bottle, labeled of course, with the thread on a bobbin. I only use the thread in a bobbin because once it is in water the top thread will pull away in one piece. And, it's simple to know what's in the bobbin since the pill bottle is still out and there isn't a bobbin in there, so it's a great reminder.
Nancy Zieman was AMAZING! I set my alarm early to get up an watch her on Sat. AM, and recorded her on VCR. Then everything changed to disc! RIP Ms. Nancy!
I did too! It is so nice that she gives credit where credit is due! So many people i youtube or instagram copy ideas or recipies as if they had invented the wheel! Nancy really did a lot for sewing and quilting I wouldn't mind watching her programs again!
I know! I just loved Nancy! I was very sad when she passed
I loved her too!
me too, she had a great style of teaching
The Best of Sewing with Nancy is still being aired in my area PBS. I record it on the DVR now.
You might want to try seam allowance magnets which you can attach to your scissors. I have four 5 mm magnets, which allow me to cut perfect 5, 10, 15 and 20 mm seams. I know different size magnets exist, so you can pick whatever suits your needs. And the best thing is: No need to add seam allowance to your patterns at all.
Oh yes yes, I have that one on my list for the future! Thank you!
With the seam tape, if you line the corners of the block on the ¼ line, you can sew 2 lines of stitching on that block, cut apart and you get 2 half square triangles blocks!
Yes, I was going to tell her that.
I wondered if it was 1/4". Thank you!
I am envious, I don't understand what you mean. Not a quilter but still would like to know.
@@ooohlaa13 hi! You saw how she lined up the corner with the red line in the center to see corner to corner. You could then trim off the excess and iron it open (seam to the darker side usually, not flat). This is a half square triangle.Or you could make your square a bit larger, line up your point with the black line and sew 1/4" to each side of the center line. You would then cut down the middle, corner to corner and have two half square triangles without any waste. It's so much easier to show you, but I hope this helps. If you search on "half square triangle", you will probably find some good videos to show you.
Somewhere there are charts that tell you what size square to start with so you end up with the size block you need. For example, to get two 4" blocks, you might start with two 4 3/8" squares. I'm pulling numbers out of my bum, but hopefully you get the concept.
Half square triangles are a common block used in creating quilt patterns, like a pinwheel or a number of star patterns.
It’s called making two half squares at a time. Instead of sewing on the line like she did, you sew 1/4 inch from the line on both sides of that center line, which is on the diagonal. After you sew a quarter inch away from the center line on both sides, you can cut away the two parts by cutting down that center line. Now you have two triangles sewn together to make little squares. I hope that helps. Quilting is magical!
With the Elo Flex in the bobbin, when winding it, hold the spool in your hand and not on the machine. Let the machine wind it, but don’t run it through the machine. That way there is not any tension on the stretchy thread. I’ve been using this thread for about 5 years and have made A LOT of learning errors.
I inherited my mother's sewing machine when she passed away almost 17 years ago, and inside the storage box was this thing that I had no idea what it was. I've held on to it all this time because my mother was a very practical person and I believed it might be important. Now, thanks to you, I know what it is and I couldn't be happier! It's a "Bulky Seam Jumper"!!! Can't wait to try it! THANK YOU! 😊🙃😊
How nice to have the gift of your mom's machine and hold onto the sewing tool you didn't know about. This is a very handy tool you'll find useful. At first, I was clumsy with mine but once I got the hang of it I found it to be most useful, especially installing needles. It keeps them from falling and adds leverage because my hand gets in the way.
AKA, a hump jumper!!😉😊
@@CheleBoxy Mine said "jean-a-ma-jig"
@@mindywashburn5898 mine too
I had no idea they had seam jumpers that long ago. Now I'm feeling very old.😉
I had my mother's machine for 40 years, & couldn't figure out what this one foot was. Had 2 parts, & was the craziest sewing accessory I'd ever seen. Couldn't find it online to save my life. No one I asked had a clue. It was an elastic foot.🤦♀
As I sit here taking apart a test muslin to use the fabric again, I thought of your video and how the water soluble thread would make this easier. Thanks for sharing!
The seam roller is more useful when you're doing foundation paper piecing for quilts. It's meant to just give a quick press to get your seams flat before you add your next piece on, so you don't have to keep going back & forth to your iron when making quilt blocks this way. 🙂
Good to know, Kimberly! All good points - I had a feeling it is very useful for quilters!
I've used this and it really isn't very good. If you really want a seam roller, go to your wallpaper store and buy their wallpaper roller. It's cheaper, the roller is wider and heaver and works much better.
Bulky Seam Jumper was known as a Jean-a-ma-jig back in my day, when making your own 'designer' jeans was all the rage. Have had mine for at least 30 years - LOVE it.
Same😊
Me too. It is a life saver when I make handbags and more
Great to see so many people excited by a love of sewing!
The Dollar Tree has a face roller that looks exactly like the expensive seam roller for just $1.25. It works just fine for a fraction of the price.
That's great! haven't been to dollar store in a while so haven't seen it there :(
@Thoughtful Creativity - CRAFT, SEW, DIY I heard another sewist talk about it a few months back, so I went specifically for it. It is a simple tool for a simple task.
I have also grabbed a face roller from Dollar Tree to use instead of a seam roller ($1.25 vs $17.99 at J.F.!) -the Dollar Tree version works just fine for a quick press when your fabric needs a quick seam opening.
I really love the seam allowance wheels set-great for adjusting a favorite (or new!) pattern, especially for increasing & decreasing sizes for bags, accessories, & home decor products!
Alisa, I just bought the Eloflex stretchable thread for my headbands- I'll let you know! 🥰😍🥰
I could have used a face roller in the late 80's while sewing custom leather clothing for a doctor. After sewing a seam, you apply rubber cement to the wrong sides of the seam allowance, then press the glued part down to the wrong side of the garment. Can't iron leather.
To quickly press seams that are near to the edge of the garment, I prefer to use my old hair flat-iron. As long as you can control the temperature, it can be used on polyester fabrics and delicates as well as paper.
For keeping threads in check, cut a slot in the top of the reel. Then slide the end of the thread into that slot. This is easy, cheap and makes it easy to find the end of the thread when you need it next.
I used to do that with the thread spools but I can't stand that then the cut edge catches on everything and the thread keeps constantly catching on it... :(
Great idea! I have a small and large flat iron that I haven't used in years! Yay! They're going to the sewing room! Thanks!
It's also good for when you are working on collars, cuffs, darts, etc. or getting the fold out of trims or linings. Just a little touch makes such a difference in final outcome and positioning.
I've just donated all my thread that has slots in the spool edge. Too many projects sliding to a frustrating halt when the thread catches.
Diagonal seam tape is a life changer! Can’t live without it!
Good ones, Alissa! Fusible thread is good, also. Just remember when you have it in your machine!
thanks from istanbul, Turkey.
The double sided sticky Tape Water‑Soluble , I find brilliant for holding "difficult" fabrics together before sewing, eg knits that would stretch out of shape or velvet that slides around.
I watched a lady today use Glad press n seal to hold those slippery fabrics together. Sew through it, them pull it off. Totally impressed!
Make sure you keep the water soluble away from all the moisture (including moisture in the air on humid days / steam/ humidified rooms etc) i got told its recommended to put it in a bag with one of those moisture-absrbing crystal bag things that are in packaging of things alot.
Moisture from humidity can weaken the whole thread spool, which is frustrating as hell or a single drop of water can dissolve straight through and you end up with a bunch of tiny strings which is useless for almost all our sewing purposes.
Yep, mine is sitting in a baggy! Good to know, thank you so much!!!
Thanks for the tip about the bag and the water-absorbing crystals. I’d had never seen this, so I’m excited to buy some. I live in Florida, so definitely need to avoid moisture.
I wondered about that as I live in the Greater New Orleans area. New Orleans has the highest relative humidity among big US cities, with an average of nearly 86% humidity. Storing it with the crystals is a great idea! THANKS!
An alternative to the little packets which may be hard to find, is sprinkling some diatomaceous earth into the bag.
@@dale3404 me too, as soon as I heard that I said oh no, I live in Florida!!!
Thank you for your very detailed presentation. You explain things so thoughtfully and thoroughly.
You have made my life a little brighter with your wisdom, teaching, and philosophy. Thank you.
As a minimalist person, I found you can use an ink brayer, pastry roller or any roller tool instead of buying one more thing to lose LOL! love the thread poppers, I have a big plastic box of threads that are separated into plastic bags by color, with little unravelling but I love those poppers for maybe the current spools that roll onto the floor when I am working on several colors. Love love the double pen trick, how good is that, and definitely must have soluble thread although I guess the fabric needs to be washable? Today i was thinking I need some elastic thread for a few things I knitted that need to have a tighter band and wondered if elastic thread available. Experiment on that one.I just found you and you are delightful and subscribed!
That water dissolvable threat is soo cool! I love your seam allowance marking trick. 👍🏼
Oh, yeah! Love Nancy Zieman! I haven't sewn in a while, and had forgotten all about her. I probably learned 75% of what I know about sewing from her.
I like the stretchable thread. This is my first time seeing you. Thanks for a great video. I'll try to come back after my Christmas rush slows down.
I really love seeing new sewing tools
I have a jade face roller that I use as a seam roll and press, it works great on my quilting cottons 😊
Walgreens sells a mini size Jade face roller for under $3
What is a face roller?
Brilliant!!
Thanks for video. The diagonal seam tape is a real shortcut when piecing squares made from two triangles. You STITCH along the two BLUE lines and then CUT along the center RED line.
Here is the process step-by-step:
To Use Diagonal seam tape - used by quilters to piece squares made from two triangles
1. First for blocks that will be made of two triangles (one from fabric A and one from fabric B), count number N of finished blocks needed.
2. Cut N/2 squares out of fabric A and cut N/2 squares out of fabric B.
3. Pin together two squares (one of fabric A and one of fabric B with right sides facing) - repeat for all squares.
4. Align red center line of tape with diagonal corners of a pinned square. Can place all the pinned squares on a line of tape (so all squares connected by tape.
5. Then sew down the marked blue seam lines on each side of tape. Sew the right seam line down the whole string of squares. Then turn and sew back down the other blue seam line down the whole string of squares.
6. THEN, cut the squares along the red center line of tape (this splits the N/2 pinned two layer squares into the N seamed squares, each made up of a triangle from fabric A seamed along the diagonal to a triangle from fabric B.
7. Press seams and you have the new pieced squares ready to attach to other parts of your quilt.
wow, thanx I saved this into my notes, I don't do quilt but love hacks and tricks of any kind sometimes you can translate into a different use!
Fun to watch! Keep that dissolvable thread in a sealed plastic bag and it will last longer. I got the "Humper Jumpers" with my sewing machine after buying one. And that tape can be used to stitch on both sides of that center line - making two half-square triangles instead of just one with waste on the other side. I will have to look for that stretch thread! That could come in handy!
I have that seam roller, it's great for sewing fabrics you can't iron like vinyl & cork. I sew bags & purses.😊
I wanted to add that many of the small spools of thread have a tiny little groove at each end where you can wrap your thread to keep it from unraveling. Some have a little slit that you pop the yarn into. The bigger spools are the ones I have an issue with... especially bonded thread as it's so slippery and silky. Thanks for the video!!!
Aurafil thread has a ring at the end of the spool that actually slides off to put on the other end or slides closer to spool to secure thread. Helpful for quilters!
When you use your fingertips/nails to fingerpress seams there is a likelihood of stretching the seam, especially if it is in the bias. Using a seam roller before pressing may help with keeping the sewing the correct length.
Be careful of scammers.
I’ve been finger-pressing, but you make a really good point, Wendy. I may try something difn’t. Thanks.
The thread stops for thread spools are a life saver. The thread does not unroll until it is off. It keeps my thread from being tangled. There are pins you can buy that holds the matching bobbins on top of your spool. There are some that look like hair pins or their is a more expensive ones that are flatter. But the hair pin ones have a sort of handle on top that you can grab. They are great.
A drawing compass works really well for seam allowance too. You can lock it into the measurement you want and it won't slide around like rubber bands on pens.
Good thinking! Love it!!!
This is s good tip! I have a compass, too!
Wow, I never thought of using a “geometry compass” to add a seam allowance. Good idea!
Oh, if my geometry teacher was alive, I'd apologize to her for always asking why I needed to know . . .
You explain things so thoughtfully and thoroughly. I watched and enjoyed this. Thanks for all the tips! 🥰
You're a natural teacher.
Glad I found you.
The “seam jumper” tool came w/my sewing machine. I thought it was ONLY for changing the needle. I had no idea it had other uses. Thank you for teaching me something new today!
Some sewing machines come with it, but mine never did so I had no idea this existed:) nifty little tool, right? I am glad it gave you some extra info on it :)
Great video. I use the seam Roller more for fabrics that really can't be ironed, i.e. vinyls and faux leathers. Also, for the stretchy thread, I prefer the new Guterman Maraflex thread. It's amazing.
Great video!
A few suggestions and thoughts...
*When using (black &) white fabric, please choose a contrasting color thread (yellow-orange maybe?) to make the stiches easier for us to see.
*I use adult size ponytail holders on thread spools to keep them intact. They're soft and slip on and off easily, but stay put. For smaller diameter thread spools (think embroidery thread) just loop the ponytail holder over twice or get little girls' holders, which work well on bobbins, too.
*LOVED the suggestion of banding two writing tools together to add a seam allowance!
*You showed several new products - or ways to use products - I'd never seen before. Thank you!
I have been sticky-taping 2 pens together for years, with a small ruler for wider hems. Sometimes I added a crochet hook, to only get 1 drawn line...
Interesting video. An alternative to the Eloflex thread is Wooly (yes, only one L) Nylon. It's sort of fuzzy/fluffy so best to use it on the bobbin only, with regular thread on top. It comes in quite large spools so is economical. I've been using this on stretch fabric for years now and works a treat.
Oh yes, I use the spool of it in the bottom looper of my coverstitch! :) It does separate, you're right!
Wow! This is the first time I've watched your channel and I found your review of these products very useful. I actually have the Bulky Seam Jumper but didn't know how it worked. Thank you for this useful information. I don't sew a lot, but always thought I could be better at what I do sew - so I'll be checking out other videos on your channel.
Water soluble thread would be perfect for basting gathers!
The seam allowance discs are fabulous. I couldn't make paterns without them.
The two types of thread definitely got my attention. I will be able to use both well. I also didn't know about the water soluble thread.
i love your lessons they are so easy and you explain them in a way that is eaasy to understand'"
I grew up going to Nancy Zieman's store. Even as a kid it was a wonderland filled with amazing things. It's such a shame that store is no longer around.
These tools look incredible! I'm just starting sewing, with a desire to make clothes and household goods. I think these will really help. Where was that stretchy thread when I tried learning to machine sew on knit fabric 😂
I m 63 and my mother sewed for other people locally. I had never heard of water-soluble thread. What a time saver!
Thankyou you make things so simple
I went and bought the Eloflex thread in many colors when Joann’s had a sale. My old Rocketeer only has a zig zag for kits and I don’t always want that stitch to show. I still haven’t tried any of it though. It’s definitely something between regular and elastic thread.
Excellent demos! Thank you for sharing👏🏼
Water soluble thread!!! OMG! How did I not know that? I immediately bought a spool. I can't wait. I just discovered the Eloflex thread. It is a game changer for bra and panty making. Yes, I found this video very informative and useful. Thanks
I have little bobbin holders on top of my thread spools, they keep the bobbin in place and hold down the end of the thread. They're so great. They're translucent colorless plastic. I tried a few styles before i found these
They're called willbond bobbin holders
I watched Nancy in the 70s. Still have some of her books. Sure loved her and miss her
Hi Alisa! Thank you for showing us these sewing tools! I appreciate you taking the time to test them and showing us the results. I never heard of a water soluble thread before! I did love the stretchable thread idea, I think it can be very useful. I enjoyed your video. Thank you and Happy sewing! ✂🧷🧵📏😊💖
Thank you and Happy New Year!
I put the seam jumper on my Amazon list. Thanks.
I wasn't actually expecting such good products. I have to get that stretchable thread.
Well thank you for the pens banded together for the seam allowance tip. I will definitely be using that from now on.
The thread clips will hold two Pfaff bobbins which, for quilting, can be helpful. When starting a new project, I like to fill three bobbins so a couple are ready as I go along! Great tips, and reviews!
I love the threads, both of them. They are going on my list. Thank you!
Love the Clover products! Some are 'game changers'!
I use a vintage sewing machine that is a one trick pony. Straight stitch only. I need to totally get that streach thread whenever I do work with knits for now on! The dissovable stitches I can not only see use for basting, but for making mockups with, that way you can take it apart again by simply dipping the seams in hot water. Of course you'd need to let that dry before transferring the modifications to your pattern.
Love your energy and the tips were great. Thank you for sharing.
The water soluble thread is great for sewing fabric sandwiches to practice quilting designs! Loved it
This was fun to watch Alisa, thank you. I know what I will be asking Santa to bring me this year ☺️
Your little one is so cute ☺️
Awww, thank you! She is when she wants to be, you know how little ones are :)
I really liked this video! You’re very engaging in the way you speak and I learned a lot from you today. Thank you!
I immediately added the seam jumper to my cart because I like to sew giant dragon plushies out of fleece and those seams can get very bulky!
I bought the thread clips awhile before seeing this video and I can say they are great. I love them.
what a GREAT video. I love your consistent narrative, your thorough testing, well prepared samples. I agreed with your assessment on the ratings too. You are good at this and I appreciate new sewing gadgets that work!
Best ever Thank you
I started using the Eloflex thread last year and I love it. Gutterman also has a stretchy thread but I haven't tried that one. A seam jumper came with my new sewing machine but I don't use it, I usually just increase my stitch length when I get to bulky seam intersections and I sew more slowly. I keep forgetting I have a tool to help me lol.
Parasti nepamanu, kad kādam youtubā ir pauze, bet tagad jau sāku satraukties, jo likās, ka video ir ik pēc nedēļas. Ļoti priecājos par tādu asprātīgu un interesantu nākamo video! Alisa, paldies par enerģiskajiem, piesātinātajiem un pozitīvajiem video!🤩🤩🤩
Sveicinaati, Rita! :) priecaajos Juus sheit redzeet! Varbuut Jums TH-cam nepazinjo par jaunajiem video? Man katru nedeelju iznaak, parasti katru sestdienu. Ljoti ceru ka Jums un Juusu meitinjai viss ir labi! Paldies Jums, ka esat sheit :)
I love your tips and the explanations are so clear! Thanks so much.
I watched and enjoyed this from Germany! Thanks for all the tips! And I'm kind of tickled that you have Gütermann sewing thread in the US, which is what I use all the time. The originial German company is still located in a little Black Forest Village, Gutach. Probably they also have a factory in the US.
Guttermann is the most superb thread you can buy at the average sew dept. I used to splurge on it when I made designer outfits. Loved it. My garments always looked so professional, especially w the top stitching thread.
Gutermann is everywhere. It's by far the main thread in Australia, where I am.
We also use this and Rasant in australia.
I’m quite new to sewing but it didn’t take me long at all to decide that it was worth it to spend a bit more on Gütermann.
These are great products which will make my life much easier. Thank you very much for sharing these products and uses.
What a fun video. Id like to see more of these!
Great video Yes, most of those would be very helpful for quilt piecing!
Thank you lovely lady... I love these tips xxx
The seam jumper looks like the one from Husqvarna that came with my Opal 690Q. I use it every time I switch needle. The best tool for so little money ever. It can also be used underneath buttons to create a distance when using the machine to sew buttons.
My Husqvarna came with one too! Most useful gadget ever - have used it for more than 23 years
That's what I use mine for, but I'm going to try it on difficult spots while quilting
I definitely need to get some water soluble thread. I like hand basting but invariably end up sewing over it so can't get it all out. Soluble thread is the perfect solution. We do we not know about it!
Also the stretchable thread - amazing. I think Gutterman also do one.
Exactly my thinking about removing basting stitches where i manages to sew over them - pain in the butt. Ah yes, I think it is called maraflex thread :)
Great ideas, & thanks for the easy to follow instructions. I'd have been lost without you!
Thank you so much I really really enjoyed watching you test those thing’s out for us all. I’m definitely going to try some of them. I already have a seam jumper, which is really really useful and helpful too. And I liked bread thread 🧵 tidy thing’s and the stretch thread 🧵 too. So useful. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Nice demos, thank you.
Thank you for these reviews. I am going to buy and try most of them!
Thank you very much! What great ideas!
Fantastic! I finally found out what the "seam-lifter-thingy" (Bulky-Seam-Jumper") is for!! Great tips - thank you :)
Excellent video and very informative. Thank you. Leeann
Ah, seam jumpers with a needle threader! My hump jumpers don’t have the needle holders, so I’m off for this product!
Thanks for your always inspiring videos! 💗
Oooh, good to know that yours is different! My pleasure, I was on the look out for useful sewing tools
So happy to have found your site!
i cut a fine slice in bottom of thread cones and just put thread end in it , no cost , easy peasy !
I used to do that - but for me it (the cut part) catches on everything and makes even bigger mess :(
Thank you for amazing sewing tools
I love the thread clips. My thread gets everywhere. These will definitely help.
Thank you! Nice to know where to go get helping gadgets.
Great video !
Just to know, lots of quilters use blue masking tape (the one used when painting walls) to help themselves with those diagonal sewing’s. Same concept as with the tape you bought. 🥰
The Clover seam roller; you have to apply ample pressure when rolling. I bought one about 5 years ago for quilting and love it.
very helpful, thanks
This was really cool! Thanks for the great breakdown on these. I’m new to sewing and these would be some great little gadgets to help me. I could see myself def getting that tape, stretchy thread and seam jumper thingy. 😊❤
Water soluble thread and/or interfacing is really old (30+ years), as is the heavy seam jumper, but that certainly doesn't make them less handy..
Yes! The Ecoflex thread is totally the stuff I've been looking for, without knowing exactly what it was I was looking, or even knew I was looking for it, LoL! I'm a decent seamstress, but knits have been my nightmare since day one! Doesn't matter how many tutorials I've watched and books I've read about zigzag stitches and stretchy fabrics/elastic, I can never get the 'right' zigzag stitch for my project.... and I don't have to tell you how much of a pain it is to pull stitches out of an elastic band! Arrrgghhh!!! That stretchy thread looks amazing! Ordering some now! Yay!
I got a set of the thread holder, but also the one that goes on the bobbin, and the clothespin looking thing that holds the bobbin on top of the thread. Love them all. I'll give it 5 stars for you. After years of trying to keep the thread and bobbin together, they are a sewing room must have!
Omg I already love your voice, so when you modified it, I think I got little hearts and stars in my eyes!! 😂😍🤩
Amazing, the first time I see you and you made my day, thank you. Wonderful gadgets, they come very handy.
