It seems there are lots of comments asking where to put the pin/why does this work. So, basically they are turnjng the presser foot into a gathering foot. They are placing the pin in the gap between the foot and the shank when it's angled down. This forces the presser foot to remain in a position in which it touches the fabric only in front of the needle and not the back. Why this works is because the feed dogs push the fabric into the needle area, but because the presser foot isn't touching the back feed dogs, the feed dogs can't help the fabric "exit". So more and more fabric gets pushed into the needle area, creating gathers. So does this "hack" work? Yes. BUT do be aware that its a lot of pressure to be put onto a little pin pushed into a gap. And eventually the shank will win, either by breaking the pin or breaking the foot. If you're planning on doing this a lot, buy a legitimate gathering foot.
If they never mentioned a pin…the finger ‘trick’ still works. Thats the technique. Hold finger down and against the back of the pressure foot with a gentle but firm pressure. It’s an amazing result. Every time. No pin. I suppose using the pin in the thumbnail pic helps with clickbait curiosity.
Just zoom into the video just like you do when you are enlarging pictures on your smart phone you can see exactly where they put the pin and I have no idea why the hell they are doing this. They don’t bother to explain anything in these types of videos.
@ and are you aware that 99% of people watch RUclips from their smart phone or their tablet??? Why in the world would I need to zoom in if I’m watching it on a computer screen or my smart TV?
Dear Tailor Nour: Thank you very much for this collection. Could you please make video about 1960’s style: BOAT NECKLINE ROLLED COLLAR. I appreciate all your great work. Thank you again!
Hola, se ve perfextamente dónde introduce el alfiler, no eche cuenta a los comentarios, la gente que prefunta eso parece no saber como funciona un prensatela. Gracias por todos sus videos, hacen más fácil y rápida la costura. Saludos
The pin jiggles but doesn’t appear to move up and down as the needle is moving up and down. When the needle punctures the fabric the pin should become bent.
I enlarged the picture and it looks like the pin is placed between the arm and where the head swivels back and forth. You can see where the person emphasizes where the head swivels before placing the pin. Hope that helps.
The pin is placed to 'jam' the swivel action of the hinged foot. However, the technique they are using for the stitching (called 'crimping' in some older sewing books) does not need the pin and it is the first time I've seen a pin used for it. Crimping works by holding a finger against the back of the presser foot so the fabric's feed is restricted. How tightly you hold the fabric and how often you 'release' it from the back of the foot will vary the amount of 'crimp' you get. It is also affected by fabric type. It can be a useful technique when you need to ease in some extra fullness in a sleeve cap and also when you need to ease in the extra circumference at the bottom of a circular hem before you turn the hem up.
Just so everyone knows, this will actually work without the pin. The gathering is created by hold the fabric against the back of the presser foot.
That’s what I was going to say! Been doing that was for decades! Don’t need the pin.
@@mary-ruthflores4107Me too. Didn’t have time for a pin at work. 😅
@ so true, but if someone has hand problems it does help take the pressure off. But it’s to fiddly for me
They do have their finger to the back of the presser foot.
I was thinking the same thing! lol

Please tell us where exactly you put the pin. I love that you share your skills with the sewing community. You are the best!

@@dcwatashi 🤔 I think the pin stabilizes or stops the pressure foot from moving.
@ I think so
@dcwatashi Are you aware that's NOT A THING on the RUclips app or on an actual computer screen? It only works on RUclips mobile in a browser.
@ and are you aware that 99% of people watch RUclips from their smart phone or their tablet???
Why in the world would I need to zoom in if I’m watching it on a computer screen or my smart TV?
Awesome,❤
This is what really an expert tailor should know about,
Please share a bit more of this kind of contents.
gracias .buena idea.tengo que hacerlo..
Wow!!
wow 👍 ❤❤
My mother used to get the same effect with just putting her finger behind the presser foot. I don't see where the pin added anything.
Amazing tips
Wow!
Wouldn’t the pin break? Or jam up the machine?
А больше всего беречь глаза надо или работать в очках..
Est-ce que c'est possible avec une machine familiale
Wow
Поставьте лапку для сборки и не ломайте зубчатую рейку в машине.

Did you put the pin in the hole of the foot? Tough to see?
Yes, they did. Are you aware that you can zoom into a video on RUclips? Just like zooming into a picture on your smart phone?

@@dcwatashiWOW! Thank you
How?
No

It looks like he placed the pin under the horizontal bar that holds the pressure foot. | _ | . I must try this!
It sits at an angle.
😮😮😮

Not really.
@@marilynnjefferson8525 So sorry it didn't help you.

Answer the question,where exactly to put the pin,no use to posting a video if we don’t learn anything 🙃🧐🤨😤
