OMG!! Didn't know you could embroider w/o a special machine . Awesome
same! I just learned i dont need a whole new machine and special bits!!
Where were you when I was young and still sewing clothes? You are so talented.
Allisa, my grandfather told me many years ago to try to learn something new every day. Your videos certainly help me accomplish that goal.
You continue to amaze me.❤
Thank you for being so kind and encouraging, that helps me to be even more enthusiastic and curious. Your Grandfather was right - we have to try :) I find that learning something new also keeps the sense of "wonder" in ones life. You know that feeling when we were kids and learned something mind boggling that we perhaps could not understand just yet? I find we loose that feeling as we get older, but I do get a spark of that whenever I try or learn something new.
@@ThoughtfulCreativity ...it often leads to... what else can I learn? 🤗
I raised my children telling them, even when you are grown up don’t go to school anymore still everyday is still a school day. We learn so much with an open mind and a desire to add to our knowledge and skill set. I now hear my children saying exactly these words to my grandies.
Awesome! thanks so much! I have always been so disappointed that I couldn't afford a embroidery machine. Now I am going to try this. I am so excited to try some small simple projects to start. You are so talented.
WHAT!!!!!
I’ve been sewing for decades and never knew about a double eye needle 🪡!! That embroidery 🧵 by machine is amazing! I’ll be doing that for sure. Thanks for showing us!
Never knew I could do this. Great video.
Your enthusiasm is infectious. I know what I’ll be doing later today. Playing with my sewing machine.
That first technique blew my mind! And you don't even need a presser foot? What!!! Thank you for sharing!
I love this!! I don’t have small children anymore to put this nice embroidery on their clothes for. Must say I used to avoid this technic. But I LOVE your idea of just leaving the foot away because I would always get lost because I couldn’t see where I was going!! Awesome tip !! Thanks ❤!!
I actually really love this technique on my clothes, too, You will see it in the future videos (I did not want to show all of the future projects :) ) It is a nice way to add embroidery to a solid color, and just the way you want it. Yeah, I find that with foot or without does not really matter if you are working with a hoop, since the fabric is nicely stretched anyway. Thread sketching is so addictive and relaxing - just seeing thread and needle do their thing is quite relaxing :)
@@ThoughtfulCreativity Will certainly give it a try once my health finally gets a bit better ❤️😊!! ( haven’t been able to upload in almost a year 😢)
Oh, I hope you feel better soon! Sending you well wishes!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Wow! What a brilliant idea. I will definitely use the techniques you demonstrated. You are truly innovative with your sewing skills.
I am 77 and still use my machine daily thanks for the good tip! You are amazing! I cannot wait to start embroidery with my ordinary sewing machine! You are Heaven sent.
You are amazing. Thank you for sharing the double needle.
Thanks & God bless
Thank you, I am excited about trying free motion without a foot.
I have actually been researching how to embroider without buying another machine! Very creative ideas! Thank you ❤️
I have a double eye needle and double eye setting on my machine but have never tried it. Now I'm inspired! Thank you!
Just ordered this double eyed needle. I’m nearly 80 and can’t wait ti try this out. Thanks so much ❤
I love this technique and you produced some beautiful things. Even your first project looks great. I love the blouse and now I'm just go to go and get my machine and hoop out! Thank you again for a brilliant clear tutorial. 🙌
Bellissima idea/tecnica di ricamo! 😍 grazie per la condivisione!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🌼
I love the double hole needle for topstitching. I love to sew Jean jackets so I will definitely go buy one of those needles.
I have been sewing for 55 years and these 3 techniques were new to me! Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Your video is clear and concise and very helpful. I learned a lot in a short period of time.
Once again you have proven that the name of your channel is perfect. I use my my straight stitch for embroidery, thread painting, and so much more. I use a product called Octi-Hoops. They make me and my machine better. LOL. It really is fun to play with my sewing machine instead of just doing regular old sewing. Thank you!
WoW. I happen to come upon your videos for a reason. I sew for some ladies at my church and I needed to do some embroidery work on a smock-like dress. You are a great seamstress. Very talented. Thank you. New subscriber here!! ❤
Those are great sewing ideas. I subscribed. Compliments on the flawless presentation. I have never seen a more perfect lesson / presentation. Every single element so carefully integrated: gestures, timing , sequencing, examples, lighting, script, editing. You are a real artist of the video. .
Wooow, you are just amazing!!
Amazing! I have never heard of a double-eye needle. Thank you Alisa for your inspiring videos.
Omg! You are the best teacher! So much information here! I’m gonna need to listen again and again to get it all. I’m gonna try the embroidery sounds fascinating
Brilliant!
I've done free motion embroidery (with not-so-spectacular results), but I did use a presser foot and didn't use a hoop. Yours looks *so* much better! I'll have to try it with the hoop now.
WOW!! Who knew. ...? You are so creative, absolutely amazing work 🪡🤩
Double-eye needle? Wow! I've been sewing for many years and haven't come across that. Something new for me to try.
I don't know how I just happened upon your channel but I am so thankful that I did! I am totally inspired and looking forward to trying these things I just started sewing September October of 2023 before that I hadn't even been on RUclips LOL thank you so much for sharing your delightful to watch and listen to❤
Thank you I've also been trying to paint with my machine. And my stuff is nothing to write home about right now. Your pieces are absolutely lovely. b
I find that it just takes a little bit of practice, also using multiple color threads and shades helps with the dimension and the depth of the picture/design. Variegated thread does wonders when you want a simple design, but slightly different shades, that's what I did on the black blouse. If I can do it then You can totally do it! :)
Thanks a lot, your video is just, what I needed to motivate my students at school!
Thanks for sharing this. I am new to sewing. I really loved all your designs, especially the mushroom!
Great to see you here, you're in the right place :) for the past 5+ years I have been showing people how to sew and draft beautiful clothes with simple and clean techniques, you will find a lot of useful videos here
This was sooooo fascinating & helpful. I consider myself a "beginner" even though I learned years ago, however, I hadn't stayed with it sooooo...well, I thank you soooo much! I'm going to have to try this. I have a Singer 4452; not sure how to get the feed dog to stop working. Hopefully a manual or YT video will wxplain. Now, onto the "zig zag" video you made.😊😊😊
Wow! Thank you for for sharing your expertise, knowledge and brief indepth teaching on extremely useful information to make better use of my Toyota basic sewing machine. I shall practice the embroidery technique you used in an embroidery hoop with a straight stitch. I thought one needs an actual embroidery machine. Thank you very much for sharing your video clip with me. Peace and prayers 🙏 👏👏☕️👌💜💜💐
I love this idea so much. I'm definitely going to try this on my kids and possibly also my own clothes. You are genius Alisa. Thank you so much and have a great Saturday ❤
Yes… you have really inspired me I love it all
Thank you so much for sharing all of these tips
Hello your tutering is great. Clear interesting thank you. Never thought of not using the foot at all. I am new to the sawing macine country…😊
Absolutely fantastic video! I’m blown away by your embroidery designs especially the mushroom with the butterfly - it is just mind blowing. Thank you for bringing such unique and innovative content our way ❤
Over the top! Just, WOW!!!
Double needle, yes, but I've never heard of a double eye needle. I love embroidered clothing so these techniques are going on my 'must try' list. I'm excited to see what future projects you will show us.😊
You are amazing!!! I'm going to try it, thanks for sharing this technique.
My goodness how clever! I usually use an open toe foot but no foot at all makes far more sense. And I’ve never heard of a double eye needle. Great vlog as always- thank you. 🙏
Thank you so much for this beautiful, informative video.
Just loved it.
Awesome tips. Thank you.
Your creativity is astounding, sew beautiful! Thank you for these tips, recently bought a strait-stitch machine, was having doubts about my purchase, maybe now I will use it more.
Wow!! Thank you. Never knew this was possible!!🙏
These are amazing. I did some stenciling on some fabric with markers & a blow device and I thought how pretty if I could embroider around them and mix the stencils with embroidery.
we are on the same wave length, I recently did a lino block stamping on fabric and thought exactly the same thing!
I love this. Even though I have an embroidery machine this looks like fun. Thank you.💟
Thank you for sharing 😊
Hi Alisa, Mettler also makes an elastic sewing thread it is called SERAFLEX. This was the brand I was able to get in Germany after you recommended using this kind of thread for top stitching knits with a sewing machine. It worked like a treat. Thank you for sharing this technique and the materials!
Lovely ❤
Very talented lady👍
I am sure glad you told us you had been working on the technique for the last year. Because I was amazed by how fast you were sewing. LOL I would never have thought of going without a pressure foot. I just assumed you needed one.🤦♀ I am so excited to try this. Double hole needle!!!!! Who knew! The idea is too cool not to order some. Now I finally know what you used that variegated thread for. 😉 you showed it on a previous video and I thought it was so beautiful. Thanks for the video and the inspiration.
Oh yes! I started by using just simple thread and embroidery thread I alreday had and then of course curiosity and creativity took over and I got my hand son variegated thread :) yeah, I started dabbling in it last year - I wish I could show eeeeevveeeerythign I work on, lol, wait until you see some block printed designs, as I got into that and lino carving too... oh, just so many things! Oh, there is also fabric etching on the way - that is mind blowing, too! If your fabric is stretched on the hoop - I find that I don't see a difference with or without a foot. I have also done this technique without a hoop and without a foot and it wasn't such a smooth sailing, but it was doable. Hoop also helps with keeping fabric from puckering as much.
Thanks Alisa, some great tips - I especially love the two colour/double eye needle one 😊
Isn't that a fun one? :) I am glad you enjoyed it. The shaded straight stitch looks wonderful as a decorative element
Excellent ideas and tips
So pretty! I’ve done free motion quilting, which is pretty much the same thing as what you’re doing. Most of my vintage machines can drop the feed dogs, and I have darning feet for them as well, which won’t need a hoop, but I can see where it might be very helpful! My 1957 singer 401a & 1960 Singer 500a have the ability to take two needles side by side for twin needle sewing, so the technology is not new, but also not normal for modern machines.
WOW love it... Thanks for sharing😊
So helpful! Thank you.
You hoped to inspire us, boy, did you, ever! So much good information that I did not know, thank you so very much!
Wow! Thanks so so much!
Never knew there was something called double eye needle. Thanks a lot
I would love to stitch some of these designs on my pillow case edges. Good tutorial, thank you!
Awesome.
I love this video. I love in the end you said that we all love to learn something new when it comes to sewing or creativity. Following🩷
Thank you will try
Very interesting. I will give some of them a try.
Very beautiful. Your hands are so steady❤
Waaaaaw amazing idea ❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
Wow, thanks for sharing,you’re so talented 🥰
Whattttttt???? I just learned how to sew pillowcases and now I want to be THIS expert lol
Thank you!!!!
Allisa ur amazing thank you x
Wow! So simple but so effective! Thank you so much.
I have learnt, and continue to learn, so much from your channel.
I look forward to trying this as soon as I get the chance.
Very much like free motion quilting using a domestic machine. I've wondered if an embroidery hoop would be helpful with that. It is definitely worth a try. Thanks for this very interesting video.
Great ideas! I have never heard of a double eye needle. Going to look into that!
Great information Thank you
Your videos are great! You give us more new and unique ideas than another sewing content creator and you explain them very clearly.
Wow, thanks for sharing!!!!
These are good tips, delivered well. Thank you!
This was great. You've really inspired me to try something new. Thank you.
Thank you!
Wow this is a fantastic sewing secret. Thanks Allysa.
I was always curious about free motion embroidery! Love it! ❤
I like the needles. I usually just thread two threads through the one needle eye to add thickness to the stitching and create a more raised looked or a two tone look. I will try these needles for sure though so thank you for showing them.
If you'd like - try the triple straight stitch - it gives even bolder top stitching and that raised look with just one thread. Interestingly, I find that threading a regular needle with 2 threads skips less stitches when doing large embroidery stitches, vs when using a double eye needle. I wonder if that is because the bobbin does not catch the upper thread in the upper eye. I am glad you found this interesting :)
Thanks for demonstrating the straight stitch free motion. It just recently bought a couple hoops and want to learn.
Wow. Wonderful. Would love seeing more like this...Thanks so much.
Thank you! It is actually part of the series, here's the previous video about zig-zag secrets - ruclips.net/video/mWKG-8e3Oz8/видео.html
@@ThoughtfulCreativity oh my goodness. I'm thrilled . Thanks ever so much...
Hi Allisa..I never knew we can use double-eye needle. This is new to me. Will try it. Thank you for this information! You are awesome ❤
Thanks for a great video. I’m looking forward to trying these.
You hope this inspired us?
It inspired and impressed me - and brought me joy! Thanks for posting.
Really impressed- my first visit as a new stitcher and I learned a little in an interesting and engaging way. Well done and thank you
Thank you for the video! A double eye needle, that is NEW to me!!!😊
Your cheerful presentation is wonderful! I enjoy learning from you!
I've learnt something so useful. THANK YOU
Just bought the same machine, didn't know you could do this kind of sewing on it. Looking forward to trying it. Thank you,💐👍
The first part of your video I loved. The technique is so fantastic. Keep up the good work
Wow this is great and fun..I will try this. Great knowledge
Wow that's so creative 😍
Wow what a great idea😃👍
