This is such a great video! These are basically the stitches I use 95% of the time when I'm sewing! Thanks for illustrating how simple the actual sewing bit of historical costuming can be!
Here because I woke up remember my five year old asking me if we can sew something..I intend to foster her interest and your tips seem pretty simple for me as a beginner myself. Now to figure out the needle to buy and look around for some fabric :)
Thank you for your time. I’m new to your channel I’m a quilter and I’m trying hand sewing I made my first quilt by hand stitching and machine. I love it so much I’m on my next quilt. God bless you and your family
Very nice.I was so fascinated by cloth stitching with modern machines.But I used to watch a lot of historical movie and wondered how people before sewing machine was invented, sewed the cloths. now I have less doubt thanks.
lovely video. Well made, great voice and lovely sewing. I have problems with keeping my stitches a uniform size but watching your hands made me feel that patience is what I need.
Thank you so much! I used to use backstitch for everything and I know too well the pain of having to rip it 😭 I'm loving the spaced backstitch, I feel like I'm getting the perfect amount sturdiness and effort with it 💖
We have something in common... the Prick Stitch. It too is my absolute favorite to use & I use it on everything I sew. And yes, it’s oddly satisfying and delightful to see the finished results. I truly enjoyed your video and I am subbing for more 🧵. Wishing you all the best.
Lovely made, very informative, thank you :) please consider making those tutorials you talked about near the end of the video, I'm sure I am not the only one who would be grateful for them :)
Thanks for a clear and easy to follow tutorial, the first I've watched that actually makes sense to me! I thrifted some nice linen for hand sowing projects, can't wait to start!
Thank you!! I now know that my first attempt at a backstitch a few years ago was actually a poorly executed spaced backstitch. I also now know the names of stitches I've been doing my whole life, but that no one told me what they were called. This will definitely make tutorials easier to follow once I'm home and free to sew again! Thank you!! ^_^
WONderful tute - love your clear concise teaching style and superb camera work - thank you 👏🥰 So happy to have discovered your channel. More hand stitches Please! 😍🙏🏼
I could never figure out how to use a thimble, but I found some silicone ones that will fit on all your fingers and that's what I use. I do mostly embroidery, cross stitch and applique work so a little different than this but still all hand work.
Yea i recently started teaching myself how to sew and i know i realy shouldn't but i would push the needle trough with the flat part of my tumb nail and at the end of the day i would wonder why my nail/finger would hurtXD. I should realy start to use a timble instead of my nail. I also have a pair if tiny flat pliers to pull and push the needle trough thick pieces:).
I always had trouble with a thimble because it was clumsy on my finger and the needle would slip up against it. When I want to push a needle through, I use a small block of wood. It's so easy and doesn't pierce my fingers. And "yes", there are times like what you do, I do too. I will take small pliers and pull the needle through.
I have no idea what kind of stitch I have been doing, I think I made it up or it's meant to be one of these but I am just really bad at it. but it holds things together so, I guess it's fine?
This is great thanks sew much! Been handstitching all my life but only for finishes and finicky things I am looking forward.....to making one of the caps with Burnley and Trowbridge sew along next week. However, thimbles really make my finger sweat do you know a solution?
So basically whip stitch is the standard way of making dress shirt sleeves? I want to start hand sewing the things I can’t find in stores, so what kind of stitching works best for sewing lace unto a cotton shirt?
Who taught you? Was always impressed on “Gilmore Girls” that lead character could sew well, and that it was accepted as “Normal” and wondered who taught her, it wasn’t passed down, and wondered how she was taught.

Thanks so much! Once I get to the sewing part of costuming it’s usually a sigh of relief that I don’t have to mess with fitting anymore. 😝
Six and a half minutes of perfect tiny stitches. 😍
I i
I know! So teeny tiny. I loved it!
Always happy to see people crafting with cats :) Thanks for showing the spaced back stitch. I'd forgotten about that one.

My sewing skills just increased twofold. My hats off to you!
You make this look so easy. I LOVE hand sewing but I doubt I could ever be this good.
I was NOT ready for that cuteness at the start
U definitely caught me off guard

thank You this is helpfull although I have found waxing cotton thred can help in sewing
Very true! Waxing it usually helps, it's just not always needed
This was an awesome video! Definitely recommend you continuing tutorial styles, because I'd definitely watch them all haha! Thank you!!
Thanks so much!
When piecing patchwork quilts, do you prefer the running backstitch or the backstitch? (Trying to decide if quilt seams would take a lot of stress.)
I have no idea what kind of stitch I have been doing, I think I made it up or it's meant to be one of these but I am just really bad at it. but it holds things together so, I guess it's fine?

I Love ur voice
What kind of stitching would work for closing a bandanna after folding it?
Hmm, a few back stitches most likely.
Beginner here. Why is running backstitch frowned upon for shift side seams?
It’s just not as secure, and shifts take a lot of washing etc so the stronger the stitch, the better in that application.
I recently heard "a perfect gather is 2 under, 4 over."
I love you video. Where did you purchase the linen you used in this video?
Burnley & Trowbridge!
@@WilloughbyRose Thanks!
do you ever draw a straight line to keep stitches even? I know I can't sew that straight especially with my eyesight.
There's no harm in marking a line to keep your stitches straight. Do what works best for you.
Does anyone know the exact name of the song?
I have used a seam ripper to take out back stitches it is a pain
where did you purchase your thimble, loved your video
It was a gift, but I believe they got it from Etsy. Thanks!
*sees cat* *hits like button*
The titles are overlapping the demonstration.
👍👍
💕
Number 6 should be the ladder stitch. Used for stuffed animals and puppets.
YOU seem to have the thimble on the wrong finger!
It seems you should have it on your left thumb where the
needle is pointed towards...😖
Anyone got the answers?
Subtitles covers your video. Can't see your hands and the stitches.
