I just found your channel ! I just learned how to sew and am looking into getting into sewing because I have found a love for fashion ! Do you think you could do a tutorial on a scalloped bathing suit ?
I try not to! The seam allowance included in the pattern is the same size as the stitch, so there's no need to cut any off. Plus, it wears down the knife much faster than normal. If I made a cutting error when cutting the pattern out then I will correct it while sewing with the serger knife, but other than that no!
Your videos have been so helpful! I’m a beginner and just sewed my first bikini thanks to your videos😊 but How are you able to sew with wooly nylon on all 4 spools? I’ve tried so many times and it keeps breaking 😩😭 that thread is just the hardest thing for me to try and figure out lol 😅 and I can’t even get the stitching to where thread doesn’t show in the seams.
Edgewater Avenue thank you so much😊 btw what tension settings do you use? My stitches keep showing when you pull on the fabric, I can’t get it tight enough 😭
Do you use a specific serger foot? Every time I try to sew with rubber elastic, the thread gets all funky on the back side but the front is fine. Whenever I use cotton elastic, I never have an issue, its only with rubber :/
Hey Katie, I’m having trouble with sizing. One of my friends want me to make a bikini for them, they are a C cup and a DD cup, what sizes should I make them? A medium or large? Xx

Nice! I like the color of the fabric. I will certainly try this.
Can you make a video on how to make a pattern from an existing swim suit? Would really appreciate the help! Love your videos!
omg love this!!
Absolutely love your Chanel!! Can you do a banded reversible bikini bottom? I can’t find a ready to wear that has a contrasting band that’s CUTE. 🙏
Your videos are so great! I'd love to know where you source your fabric. I'm having a hard time finding the right one.
Mostly from Etsy!
Nice, thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
What type of fabric are you using
girl..wait..so are we not adding any elastic to the top this time? is it just the strap? Or did I just miss that part of the video?
I also have that question... She does mention the elastic at the begining but it seemed she didn't use it....🤔
I'm running low on elastic (there's a shortage because of everyone making masks) so I'm not using it in my recent videos but I usually would!
Would you happen to have a link for a good elastic foot? for the serger lock 1034d.
En serio, Te amo!!
This is so cool! Do you use your serger knife while you sew?

If you just want to use wooly nylon on the loopers that should be enough! Otherwise, maybe try finding a different thread brand and see if that helps.

I use an elastic foot, but I haven't had that issue with a regular foot before. Sounds like the settings need to be adjusted when you use rubber!
Do you add elastic to the strap that goes through the channel?
Yes, I do! Of all places to skip elastic though that's probably one you can easily get away with if you wanted to

For larger cup sizes, I'd recommend doing a full bust adjustment to ensure the piece will fit their cup size as well as their band size
Hi there! What brand and model serger are you using?
Babylock Evolution :)
Where did you get these little clips! I have been looking for them!
Amazon! amzn.to/2Vf2ePO
Omg you have an option to see the price in $AUD on your website
Also are you using wooly nylon in all four threads?
Yes! I know some of my customers just use it in the loopers though and they like it that way.
I thought you would sew elastics on this one... I want to do this top with elastics.
Hi could you make a strapless buiting suit ?

I like it! Can you please also teach how to make the bikini that looks like bra??
Yes! That's on my to-do list!
