Had a 3 point tear near the hem of a long summer dress that got caught under a drive wheel of my powered wheelchair. The most expensive dress I own, bought new for $100 about 2 years ago. With the help of this video, from more than a few inches away, you cannot even tell it was mended. Not even the print shows it. I have to look on the inside of the dress to see the mend.
I am 71 but a total amateur at sewing. I just used the supplies from my late mother's sewing box. I found an exact color match thread too. Thank you very much for taking the time to post this video.
Ty for a great tutorial, really clear and easy to see what you're doing I just wanted to mention, when you said centimeter, it looked more like 1 or 1.5 millimeters. I don't mean to be rude, the reason I say it is because one time I followed a recipe on RUclips and the person said to put a Tbsp of salt and quickly put it in so I couldn't really tell it was a tsp, I remember slowly putting it in thinking it seems like way too much salt and it was, I went back and slowed down the video to make sure and it was definitely a Tsp lol but she said Tbsp so I did it 🤦♀️☺️
Thank you for this! I needed to sew my son's comforter and this is the perfect stitch for it!
Best demo for this stitch I have seen. Thank you!
Thank you for this, you helped me save my favourite top!
This was so helpful. My first attempt was not as great as yours but looked shockingly good nevertheless!
I noticed you double the thread instead of single thread - do you have to or can you just use single thread for the stitching??
Ty!! You have saved my life from my mother yelling at me for a couple moths!!
If your mother's yelling at you for the damage a moth did to your clothing you need to seek counseling. That's not normal.
😭 i meant months lol. autocorrect but i think its still held
i mean its still there and pretty noticeable but we havent thrown it out
@@alliewhite7839 oh ok, it just sounded like a pretty extreme reaction over a moth hole!
😂
Great video, thanks!
Thank you so much for this video. It's very usefull, as my cat loves to sneak under my bed sheets and then tear them
real skills
Thank you from Manhattan
Thankyou. This worked great!
The square tear is sewn on the L back because the L is on the right?
Amazing technique! You dont even see the seam
Not shown how to end it
Something people will do to knot the thread would be to pierce through to the side that isn’t seen when worn. Then pick up some fabric as though you were going to make another stitch. DO NOT PULL THROUGH. Wrap your thread around the needle point 3-5 times, THEN pull through. Make an additional normal knot by your first one if more security is wanted, then trim the thread
Nor how to fix the new problem. The puckering fabric 😂
oof, yeah. That always comes down to trial and error since each instance is gonna be different x_x
~Edit with solution~
When I said as though you’d make a stitch, I assumed the amount of fabric picked up would be small. It should be a small amount of fabric on your needle, 1/8 inch at most. That shouldn’t cause too big a pucker on most projects
Karen, lol
In all seriousness, helpful video, thank you.
Ladder stich
This is just basic ladder stitch & looks really crap…
