You are a great teacher. Calm, smart, methodical, thorough and funny. Thank you!
I love your shop. So clean and bright, and plenty of room to work.
That fabric is life
I love how you teach . Please keep teaching.
I am ashamed to say, in all my years of sewing, I have never changed the oil. Will do that tomorrow. Thank you so much. ❤️🌹🐝
I came across your channel, and I am sooooo glad I did! I dabble in alterations and you had the perfect tutorial for shortening sleeves on a lined jacket! You have officially restored my love of garment sewing! Just love your overall vibe for of teaching and can feel the love you have for your craft!

I love watching you, your spirit is so beautiful!
I have never seen a serger at work before. Very complicated. There must be quite a learning curve. But it seems to be the tool for the job.
I love your humor and your tips
I’m so excited discovering you! I love the way you explain things. 😊
I really enjoy watching and learning from you! Thank you!!❤
I love your work I work with you
Again, thank you 👏🏻
watching you use the rotary cutter on that long run without a straight edge gave me so much anxiety 😂
After you clip the final threads, will it unravel ? Very informative video. Thank you
The production value is outstanding ❤
How much did you charged for that hem? 😊👍🏽
Hey just to remind you You forget to tighten the needle screw after taking out the left needle

I just tighten the screw again when I put the left needle back in, if I tighten it, I’ll just have to re-loosen it again and then tighten it again later.
Do you secure your starting and ending seams?

I leave the thread tails long in both ends and then pull the threads tight right at the edge of the fabric and clip them very close, with this style of serge the stitches are already so close together that it stays well intact.
Excuse me if i missed it, but what kind of fabric is that? It's beautiful.
