    Thank so much Angela. I too have sewn for 55 years but I love learning more about new machines and ways of sewing. My eyes are not as sharp but the tape trick works well. Love that thread color.❤

    Thank you Angela! You are such a great teacher!! I have a super fancy sewing machine so I would just like to add my opinion that unless you have been a seamstress for quite a while, I would recommend a simple sewing machine just like Angela’s! Much less to go wrong and simpler to operate!! Listen to Angela as her instructions/ tips are wonderful!! Also, no matter what type of machine you have, a review is always helpful!!💕

    • @AngelaKerrDesigns
      @AngelaKerrDesigns  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You are such a sweetheart Donna! Yes, a basic model is the way to go for paper sewing. Thank you so much for your fabulous review too, bless you! 🤗🌷🦋🐥🌸💗

    Angela like you I’ve been sewing since I was 5 years old and I thought I knew it all but you’ve proved me wrong! My eyes aren’t as good at focusing any more so my lines are wavy but using your tip for laying a tape guide on your machine is great.i substituted black electrical tape for the washi so I could see it easier and I’ve got a much neater line. Thank you so much for sharing this helpful video Angela. Much love and hugs 😎🌺🌸🤗😘💖😅

      Jean, I was brought up seeing my mom behind the sewing machine cos that's how she kept food on the table. So the result was to buy my twin and I each a Singer machine to keep us busy and out of mischief.
      I can't remember how old I was when I started sewing but it was at a young age, just like yourself.
      I also thought I knew everything about sewing on paper but nope, I learnt a trick or two watching Angela's video.
      It's cool to have friends who share their knowledge with one eh.
      Happy sewing my dear friend 🌸❤️🌸

    • @AngelaKerrDesigns
      @AngelaKerrDesigns  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dear Jean, I am so pleased that this tip has proven to be so helpful. Thank you so much for your fabulous feedback. I think the black tape is an excellent idea! So pleased it has worked for you, my dear friend. Hugs and smiles 🌷☺️🌸💗🦋

    • @AngelaKerrDesigns
      @AngelaKerrDesigns  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is a wonderful memory, my friend. Being able to sew is an amazing hobby and a great income stream too.
      My first machine was a singer too. Hugs and smiles 🌸💗☺️🌷🦋

    Hello, Angela! I just received a simple sewing machine today, it’s very basic with 12 stitches, looks quite similar to yours. This video is pure gold for us beginners who are wanting to learn how to sew in our journals. I learned basic sewing in Home Economics in high school, which was many years ago, so I truly needed a refresher. You are a fabulous teacher! I will be watching this one again and again, for sure.😃 Thanks so much!

  • @brendamederios1355

    Thank you very much for sharing a detailed tutorial/tips
    of owning a sewing machine, the care/cleaning and how to use a sewing machine in an actual paper project! It was a ‘refresher course’ which I found very interesting. I have a similar sewing machine and appreciate your time to explain in full detail. Thank you very much!! I thoroughly enjoyed this

    Great tutorial Angela. I've sewn most of my life, plus I was a curtain seamstress. Now I'm very lazy in using my machine. I really need to organise myself and prepare all my tags in one go, as once I start crafting I'm too lazy to get up and sew a couple of tags...lol.
    I'm having a fantastic day binge watching your tutorials.
    Hugs and smiles from across the miles. 😊🌸🌾🎀💚

      What a wonderful sewing career. I bet you were very busy.
      I do cut, back and see my ephemera at the start of my project and keep it in my ephemera container. It saves me time for preparing videos.
      I am so pleased you have enjoyed watching all these videos!! Wow, that’s amazing! Thank you so much for your fabulous support. Hugs and smiles ☺️🌷🌸💗🦋

    I've picked up a tip or two even though I've been sewing from a very young age.
    With a smile on my dial I'm going to my machine now.

    Love how you do your ending videos, showing completed pcs. of your work!!! You lay out things so beautifully, Angela!!!! I started sewing, mmmm, probably, about when I was 7. My mom, bought me a, sml. Childs, hand, crank sewing machine. She showed me how to, make clothes for my, little dolls. She would use, brown paper bag or news paper to draw, the patter on for, the dolls clothes. I would like to still have that little sewing machine..?? Through the yrs. I made my own school clothes. Then design some things later on, through the yrs.. Then yrs. later, I got into quilting & made a # of them. But now, I haven't sewn in yrs. I've wanted to revisit sewing & enjoyed this video. I like seeing, sewing on paper!! But I enjoy doing, card making. Had a dry spell w/that, but there's a group of us card makers, that, just started to get back together (because of what has been going on, around us all, in past few yrs.). Your an inspiration, Angela!!! Do take care. Fl.

    Thank you so much for this tutorial, Angela! I've had a love/hate relationship with my sewing machine, as it frequently makes a rats nest of thread on the back side of what I've been stitching. Now I realize that my tension setting was way too high, and possibly my needle size is incorrect as well. 😱 Time to get out the old dear and see if we can make adjustments that will allow us to become crafting buddies going forward. I do like the finished look of stitching on tags & journal cards, so its certainly worth the effort!
    Best, as always! 💐

    I just got my first machine for paper sewing and this is the best video I've seen! I am having problems with an embossed cardstock I'm trying to sew, the thread is pulling out of the needle and I'm stitching without thread and the cardstock is tearing. Do you always have to hold the 2 threads when you first start sewing? I see some people holding them and others not at all so I don't know what I'm doing wrong? If you could give me some advice it would be great!! Thanks so much for sharing.

      Debbie, it sounds like a tension problem. . Try turning your top tension dial to a lower number to reduce the tension. Check you have threaded your machine properly. Do this with the presser foot up. Tension is engaged when pressure foot is down. Hugs and smiles 🌷☺️💗🌸🦋
