I have been looking ages for a tutorial on how to do this and this one was so easy and well explained, thank you so much!! I just tried it out and it worked perfectly!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you for watching. I get my wire at hobby lobby, Michaels or JoAnn’s in the jewelry making section. The lighter the fabric you are using the thinner wire you want. 24 gauge is the middle of the road. Heavier gauge is 18 so numbers go down with thickness going up. I like coated but you can use regular wire. Just check the flexibility. You can also use fishing line (50 Lb) if you don’t want it to bend just flute. Hope that is helpful.
Thank you for viewing the video. I did not use 12 wt in the bobbin. It was regular - 30 or 40 wt. With some machines you may need to loosen the upper tension when using 12 wt in the needle.
The best foot is the open toe foot that has nothing across the center of the foot. You can also use a cording foot or a 3 groove pin tuck foot. The secret is the part that is cut out underneath the foot
@@MBCreationss Here is a close up video I did at home and I am rolling and whipping the lace edge into the edge of the fabric. It is the same principle as inserting wire. Notice the fabric is in the center of the foot the lace (or wire) is slightly off to the left side. ruclips.net/video/ClkXBWcUZFk/видео.html
I can't get it to work. It's really frustrating. I bought a cording foot and the wire won't go underneath into the groove and my needle keeps hurting the wire. I will just get a serger.
Not all Elastic foot is made the same, I tried this with my machine and it doesn't work. Have have yet to find the perfect elastic foot that would work to purchase.
Sorry to hear that. Maybe try a Cording foot with the groove the size of the elastic. This video is actually about wire so I am confused about your question.

Thanks so much. I’m glad it was helpful to you!
What kind of wire did you use and were can I get it? Do you have a link to that product? This opens up a whole new world. Thank you for sharing!

What thread did you use in your bobbin? If you use the 12 wt in the needle, are you using it also in the bobbin?

Can you tell me which foot you are using that grabs the fabric to fold over the wire?

@@AllDunnDesigns thank you so much for the info. Do these fold the fabric over the wire as your sewing like the one in the video?

Did I miss what kind of stitch you did? Was it a zig zag?
Thank you for watching! Yes you use a zig zag stitch. Set to a satin stitch.
For older model machines (Elna 1980) which do not have a , what width zigzag?
