#SharetheGlory - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Just started sewing and looked for a couple of dozen channels on TH-cam. To be honest, a lot of them are women that I can't really connect with because they sew mostly dresses and the overal vibe of the videos isn't something I would watch normally on TH-cam (they make really good content but the overal connection just isn't there). However, your videos are amazing and kind of unique in the "TH-cam sewing video category" and at the same time extremely high quality. Keep this shit up man, it is amazing.
I have sewn since 1968 so so - self and 4 H taught and female and this dude id fantasic
Hey Martin, thanks for the kind words. Really appreciate that. Glad my TH-cam videos are helping you out, all the best on your sewing journey🙏🏻
This guy doesn't have a regular channel but a wonderful blog: it's called Male Pattern Boldness. I started reading it around 10 or 12 years ago and it's wonderful. He's self taught and later enrolled in FIT in New York. Start from the beginning. It's sewing and some other stuff. He hasn't posted much on it for awhile. He has links to other men that sew as well as other sewing and sites that he just likes and those are all categorized for easy browsing.
Wild you’ve been sewing knits for so long without a walking foot! Your work is already very clean, this is just going to amp it up!! Love your discovery. Cheers man
I’ve been sewing for a couple years now but never had any real training. Everything I know is learned from TH-cam or through trial and error. This walking foot came with the sewing machine I bought (along with several others) and I didn’t know what it was for. Thanks for sharing this quick tutorial!
Bullshit!
Sometimes a teflon foot works as well as a walking foot. I use it when I have fabrics that are fairly thick.
The way I was just thinking about a walking foot and what it’s used for, perfect timing!
When I first used the walking foot it definitely improved the quality of my work. Great video!
Love from holland, im a fashion tailor student in the netherlands and all you videos really helped me with my assignments !!!!
ive been sewing longer than you been living. I love your videos. I'm using them to reach my grandson. Seeing a young man is inspiring to him. Once you start using the walking foot you will love it. Try it with your next hoodie. The right tool makes a big difference.
Thank you SO MUCH for making this short. My attention span can't digest those long videos when I just wanted to know what the dang thing is and what it looks like when it runs. 🙃
On my domestic machine I almost always use my walking foot. The only time I don't is when using decorative stitches.
bought one of this after saw your video and help me SO MUCH. its a perfect tool :~
So I'd personally just buy a walking foot machine. While limited to a single straight stitch it can easily go through so many layers of heavy duty fabric.Consew CP206RL. But I mainly do heavy fabric work for bags, gear, ect.
Love the work man keep it up.
Nice and clear with a good proper explanation of the Walker foot. I'll share this with other I know who are learning to sew
Impeccable timing....!
Great explanation that I’ll now remember!!
Thank you!!!
I use a lot the walking foot, for example for seams with more than four fabrics, or with thick fabric as well; do you know the presser foot with a roller? it also works well with slippery fabrics, thank your for your video, it's very professional.
I haven't sewed with more than four layers in a while but I definitely didn't have the walking foot back then. Thank you!
Just literally got one and am looking forward to trying it out.
Good quick and precise instructions!
Yooooo your on TH-cam’s creators on the rise
im trying to make a faux shearling coat and the walking foot is definitely 100% necessary. Its still a pain in the ass to work with. The microsuede and the fur backer are silk texture. The worst though, is that the fur has directionality to the pile, so it acts like a ratchet and shifts when compressed
Pretty sure I have one of these but have never even tried to attach it, much less use it. Thanks for the breakdown
They don't actually feed but apply pressure and allow the top dogs to slide easily back and forth. So basically helps with the top part dragging on the foot. If to simply move the lever arm up and down and attempt to move the dogs you will notice they just allow movement and of course there is no stitch length adjustment so that's a clue that it's not actually pulling anything.
Thanks for saying this. Many people seem to want to spread the impression that these things actually feed the fabric. They don't, of course. Compared to industrial walking foot machines or the IDT system on some Pfaff machines, the walking feet don't actually do anything.
@@wimseybunter Yes they all seem to think it actually pulls the fabric. But when you ask so how do you control stitch length they can't understand. Of course they can be better than a standard foot for some applications. Now when you look at the Janome accufeed system this really does synchronise top and bottom and feeds from both. And of course many industrial walking foot machines. Being an engineer I like to understand things.
@@robinbebbington7063 Oh, a fellow engineer, that explains a lot🙂.
I use a walking foot when I’m sewing together my quilt “sandwich” (the pieced top, batting, backing). The walking foot is really helpful to prevent bunching from uneven feed between the top and bottom layer. My only issue is when i start out, the fabric gets stuck behind the top feed dogs of the walking foot. I have to poke it out with my ‘purple thing’ stick.
Holy shit, I had this same sewing machine this whole time and didn’t know it had a walking foot attachment.
Great video for why I use a walking foot, but I need to know how to attach it to my Singer.
Good evening, can you do a pants pattern simplifies it, so that beginners can follow
I love your videos because I have the Singer HD6800c which is essentially your machine but it's computerized. So your videos are cool cause everything is the same.
More tutorials please!!!!!! Love your vids!
Great topic, thanks for sharing it 👍
...it might help if pinning the items together starts getting complicated to pass through at the same time.
You also can use it for leather or faux leather.
I love my walking foot
Do u see with leather?
Do you think there might be any disadvantage to using one regularly? Aside from switching feet for special applications like zippers.
Oooh using one regularly is a dream! My mom discovered walking foot after like 40 years of sewing and she uses it for quilting thick layers of cotton and batting. Now she never takes it off the machine
And exactly where was the testing here? Do we get a video with an actual test?
Do you have a video on how to insert lining if not can you please make one that briefs us on how to apply lining to blazers, trenches etc…🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
That would be PLUG
I really like your simple and bold point of a walking foot. Men do better with explaining and detailing. I find women tend to talk too damn much and leave you confused. Thus is why I watch this channel
So this was great! thank you
pfaff already has a walking foot on most models
QUESTION: I have some ITY jersey knit stretch fabric in need to sew and was wondering if this is good for that because one it piles up under my needle and two and stick or machine settings to use I have a singer heavy duty 4411 and I can’t seem to get this fabric to behave any suggestions or tips ?
It honestly seems to complicate all projects for me. After the like 6th time of thinking I was using it wrong, I called Singer and they sent me a warranty replacement. TWO in fact by mistake, now I have 3 walking feet off to the side 🙃
:O that's a lot of walking feet
I feel the same way. I have the janome walking foot and it’s not helping me at all.
@@MKKS613 I’m convinced walking feet are all hype
Do you have to have a machine specific walking foot or are they interchangeable? For instance I have a new Janome and a vintage singer slant needle 301. Would the same foot work on both? Thanks!
Hi Glory Allan. Have you ever come across walking feet with a bar rather then tuning fork that is the extension bar. Xx
Can walking foot be apply to overlock and cover stitch sergers?
Where do I get this kind of walking foot. Anyone please send me a link to a reputable online shop to purchase one of these babies
Link in description :)
Can it be used for a Kenmore Machine?
Can't you just order one for your make and model machine through Lowes, Home Depot or Amazon?
which sewing machine is best for beginners?
Please what machine can u use to sew t shirt??
