I've spent hours today trying to balance my overlocker, did it in literally 5mins with this vid! Thank you so much, I'll be recommending this video to everyone lol
You literally just lied .
Me too!
This is the only video that makes doing the tension make sense. Genius.
Awe thanks 💪
I can not believe I use to pay someone to do this for me!!!! Thank you SO MUCH
This is THE MOST useful video I have Ever watched! I just wish you would MAKE MORE VIDEOS with helpful tips like this PLEASE. ..( I would like to know how to use the differential feed for sewing)
I have always struggled with the tension and as a result haven’t used my serger machine. Thank you for this tutorial. So simple and straight forward. I’m actually looking forward to giving this a try.
One never gets too old to learn new tricks. Thank you for the simple way you showed us to set tension, my wife says at 80 I should know a lot, but then I have a LOT of hobbies. 👴🏼
Well .. you can never know too much! Is great to be able to do what you like... Enjoy all your hobbies ♥️
I've struggled with this for years. So logical and simple. Thank you for letting me enjoy sewing once again❤❤
A very systematic way to sort out tension on your overlocker😊👍 Great explanation, thank you!
I put away my sewing in order to raise my precious granddaughter and now she is becoming a really fine adult. Now I get to return to sewing and your logical way of assessing the tension has taken away a lot of stress by a methodical method that also teaches you so much about the machines that we love to create on! Thank you!
I never would’ve thought to do this🤦🏻♀️ thank you so much! This is genius🙌🏽
You're so welcome! I'm glad I could help
Omg THANK YOU! Any tips of figuring out the differential feed and pressure foot pressure ? I’m serging 4way swim fabric and it’s curling and twirling 😭
This was the best video thank you. I could not get my machine adjust but now it is perfect. Thank you.
I've watched this video 9 times and learnt something new each time. Thank you for the confidence in using my overlocker. Your video makes it so simple
Yay! Then I've reached my goal.... Glad to see it's being used so much! ♥️♥️
Oh wow! As a beginner this really helped me. You are a really good teacher (coming from a teacher). 😬😬😬
Awww that's so sweet! I always thought I wasn't haha nice to hear otherwise.
Thank you so much! I am so glad to have this method which will save me a lot of time instead of trying to turn all the dials one by one randomly.
That was our first method too
That's a really great idea to make the numbered fabrics. Your Janome makes beautiful stitches.
Best video I’ve seen yet o TH-cam. Thank you.
Yay ! What a compliment ♥️
Thank you!! You have presented a clear and simple way to diagnose and set thread tension, I appreciate it!
No worries! Glad I can help
I have a Siruba overlock. There are no instructions in English anywhere. So I appreciate this so very much. My machine does not have numbers on the dial, but I will make a template. Thank you thank you thank you!
Glad it's so universal
Simple, Yet Absolutely Genius! At 48yo, I’m still a beginner, even though have owned my Serger for about 4 years. One of my first practice sessions ended with a threading nightmare. I couldn’t figure it out, got overwhelmed and felt so intimidated that I gave up, which isn’t like me. Alas, it’s been collecting dust since. Earlier I watched another video on how to thread my Janome 634D which actually led me to your video on Tension.
Tension has always been an issue for me, even on my basic Brother sewing machine. I just realized that, until today, I didn’t fully comprehend what I was even looking for. Now, after watching your video many times, as I wanted to pause and zoom-in at each level to make sure I understood. I’m so excited to say, I finally get-it! Thank you for this wonderfully detailed explanation! I feel like I’ve overcame the anxiety that’s held me back. Thank you for helping me find my self-confidence & enthusiasm to try again. I’m actually smiling as I type because I feel so optimistic. I simply cannot thank you enough for this amazing video! You are one brilliant young lady!
OMG!! I am sending you cyber hug and kiss. What a brilliant idea!! I am sat here with my jaw qide open. I had had my janome for a few years and I have never fgured out a way to get the threads right. This has truly blessed me. Thank you!!!
The only useful video on overlock tension I have seen. Thank you
Just found your channel and am very pleased to have such a logical method for tension adjustment. I have a babylock 6000 serger which is close to 30 yrs old. I had to give up sewing clothing for years, but I just retired and look forward to enjoying sewing skills that have brought me so much satisfaction over the prior years. Thanks for a clear and concise tutorial
I pulled my Bernette (made by Juki I later came to know) after not having it used it since the 90's!). It still sews perfectly, but all of my institutional knowledge about operating and muscle memory in threading it (though there is a guide) was out the window.
Glad I can help. ♥️ Let me know how you getting on
Ohh my life! this is the best video for adjusting your tension. Brilliant 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Haha we do like it too. Thanks for your support
Great tutorial on tension. I have had my overlocker for 6 years and have never changed the tensions. Now I'm off to give this a go. Thank you 👍
Great stuff. This is why I made this video. Good luck! ♥️
This was so helpful. I’ve had my serger for a long time but never used it much because I never knew how to set the tension correctly. Thank you very much. I know I will use my machine a lot now.
That's great, how are you getting on?
Wow! This is perfect. I have struggled with my machine for so long. The guides did not help because all the tensions were off. Your method helped be to set up my machine.
Thank you so much! The instruction manuals are so vague but this video explains step by step! I’ve saved this and will keep coming back!
Thank you so much for posting this!!! I sat here for the last hour trying to adjust the tension after buying my first serger 🤣 now I understand why my teacher always took forever to rethread and adjust the tension. This was the best explanation ever & now after 10 minutes I have it adjusted perfect, thank you again!!!
Yay! That's great news. Glad I could help.
This helped with my mother's new (2nd hand) sewing machine. I honestly just copied the numbers you used at the end and it was perfect!!! Thank you for your video!
This is going to be a video I refer back to again and again thank you so much for this it was easy to digest!
I'm self taught and have such a tough time but people like you make this possible for me ! THANK YOU ! 😊
Thank you so very much for showing us how to set the tensions on the overlock machine! This will save me hours of time!
So good !!! Just got back to sewing after some time & I was really struggling with threading & getting tensions right with my overlocker. What a clever method Genius!!
So glad I can help.... Happy sewing
This is fantastic I have been struggling with the instructions in the manual for a long time. I have a Janome My Lock and it's been pot luck getting the tensions right. I almost gave it away. Thank you so much xxxx🤗
❤❤❤❤❤ What a genius way to actually see the difference as you change the tension dial. I’m like many others-don’t have a clue how to control tension. Think I’ll dust off my old serger, once I find it in the attic! 🥴Now I just need to invite you to my home and teach me how to thread it.😂
Awesome I have been sewing for several years but this is the best way I have ever seen for serger tension
This just safe my life I was on the point of giving up, I try to do sewing after twenty years and feels if I am so stupid, thanks a million for this video

Thank you. After spending ages trying to fix tension, this solved it in minutes.

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I had been unsuccessfully trying to correct the tension on my Toyota machine for so long - your method worked perfectly!

This is great info to know. I have an older Brother serger. Quite often the tension is just ok, not what I would really like it to be. I will definitely be giving your method a go before my next project. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us! Subscribed!

Brilliant method - many thanks for this tutorial.
Wow!!! Thank you for this great tutorial ❤️
Just the video I needed. So clever! Obrigado! Helped me a lot.🌺
This is a brilliant system, and thanks for demonstrating it. I find the tension the hardest part to get right. I thought it would be the threading, as most people talk about that with dread, I'm fine with threading, but the tension, ooh dear different story! Should be better now :)
Same hear 😭 tension is so hard,first thing tomorrow will try this brilliant idea
@@LaRomi I can relate to that. I bought my first sewing machine (old gold and black Vibrating shuttle Singer) in 1971, but after letting my new husband have a go, it never stitched properly again, so took it back, and part exchanged it in for a Bernina 830, which I'm still using. After many years of sewing, I realised Michael had just altered the tension...
Great demonstration and simple. Great idea to put to good use. Thank you for sharing.
No worries! Happy to help
Great demonstration! Thank you.
This was an awesome tutorial! Thank you!
Can't believe this worked! Bless You!
Yay 😃
Such an excellent video! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much! Very easy way, I had a problem to create a perfect tension :) Thanks a milion !
Thank you for this very precise, useful tips…. God bless you!
