- I do most of my free motion embroidery using a treadle sewing machine but in this video I am using a straight stitch 221 Singer Featherweight to create beautiful embroidery.

When I was a kid, my mother used to do embroidery for many people who requested a job on weading sheets, dresses, etc. She used a Singer Machine very close to the one you are using... her feet providing the motion and speed as she needed and her hands moving just the same you do the fabric. It is indeed an art. I know all the effort and work that involves what you do. You are like my mother. Both fantastic! Thanks for sharing.
Can one do simple sewing with embroidery machine?
@@voldemort7930 yes you can , just need to raise back the feed dogs to make a grip on fabric while sewing .
This is not a embroidery machine....It is a simple straight stitch machine doing embroidery by hand movements.
I was going to buy a computerized embroidery machine, until I found these tutorials! Thanks so much!!!
They are so expensive. I'm not buying one either.
I'm a beginner and most of videos I saw is scary, they are doing it very fast and this one is a great tutorial because I get to see exactly how evert stitch fall. Godbless and thank you!
The skill in those hands 😮 I'm in awe!
I was going to get a computer controlled machine with previous installed designes.. not now 😊
Omg!!! That must be so hard! This is fantastic, I've never seen anything like this. I don't consider those new embroidering machines even real embroidery.. The machine does it all...no skill required... Ugh. This really is amazing!
Thank you for making this video. I remember being a young girl and watching my grandma do this on her machine. I could sit and watch her for hours.
You just motivated me to get out my machine and start a project.
It is always a great satisfaction and a Spectacle to see the Masters performing their Art. This Lady is AMAZING!!!! The Lord Bless her hands and her Divine, out-of-this-World Ability!!!!!!!
The dexterity it takes to pull this off while ACTUALLY pulling this off is just amazing
AND pulling the hoop in time!There’s so much coordination here, it’s mind blowing!
It's lovely to see your controlled stitching building up the layers.
This is absolutely beautiful. Just proves we don’t need all those fancy machines. You have such patience and skill. Thank you for sharing.
Amazing video!
Absolutely beautiful! I love your creativity in all that you do
IM-PRES-SIVE!!! You are a truly crafty person. You have my respect and attention!
Bless u, grandma!
Amazing! Such talent and patience.
So beautifull, I'm learning so much by just seeing your videos! Greetings from Brazil!!!
Amazing talent!!!! Beautiful! ❤️❤️
Your precision is unbelievable!!!!
Thank you for sharing. You make it look so easy. I cant wait to try it myself.
I love your work! They are amazing!
I first subscribed to your videos in admiration or your artful expressions. Having access to a treadle and a featherweight I find myself more inspired to make something on my own. Thank you for sharing.
Hermoso
Guess it's back to trying embroidery again on my Necchi that shares my birth year of 1952. You are a great inspiration and I thank you for posting and producing this video. Great work and I love the music. Back to work. Embroidery first or producing a requested video on threading a 20 year old serger. Thanks again.
Wow what skill and talent you posses what a blessing ,thanks for sharing
Absolutely Lovely!! Your amazing talent speaks for itself! Thank you for inspiring so many of us. Blessings :)
I have been watching your videos on and off and can only congratulate you for the beauty of your embroideries and your great talent. BeautifuL

You are amazing! Beautiful!
Thank you for this video! I was looking all over for a nice example on how to fill in large spaces properly, and most of the quilters who do free motion just filled it in a messy way (has it's charm but not what I was looking for). Can't wait to try this out!

I'll never be able to achieve this level of skill until my Singer 15-88 is back in a treadle. Someday!
Wow. Such inspiration.
Gorgeous!
I also work this type of machine embroidery from 50 years. And it is very beautiful.
Thanks a lot
Very pretty, what a wonderful job you do! :)
A beautiful skill. I am very emotional watching this.
Это прекрасно!!! Я купила такую же машину, с ножным приводом, специально для вышивки! Вы настоящий Мастер!
OMBeejenkins.
I thought this was made from an embroidery machine!!!!
You are awesome!!!
Me encanta eres una artista¡
Beautiful .thank you 😘💐💕💕💕👍
You are an artist
Wow beautiful work.
Love yr work mam.
Real Awesome
Lindooooo trabalho sua nova inscrita aqui em minas gerais brasil. Obrigada por compartilhar.
I was wondering if we could get the same effect as hand embroidery in silk embroidery paintings. And you helped me to determine that yes, we can. Thank you
Amazing skill, thank you for sharing. Even the fact that you have wrapped material around your embroidery loop has made me want to try that too. It must help prevent snagging and to hold the fabric stretched without slipping out?
So beautiful
beautiful
Que hemoso bordado es muy lindo soy de Ecuador
감사합니다
Thank you
I am from Nagpur, Maharashtra, in India.
سلام اختي شكرا على طرز الممتاز فكرتيني في زماني والله انت هايلة وسلام
Marilyn, your work is so amazing and beautiful.....I want to draw my own patterns, for embroidering, but I am no artist!! Do you have some of your patterns that I can download, and try this beautiful technique??? I've searched coloring books for patterns, but no luck. I especially like your lace designs.....
thanks Dr.I will try
روووووعة ♥️♥️♥️♥️🌹🌹🌹🌹
I'd love to see a stitch count for that! Beautiful work.
Waaaaawe formidable
Beautiful mam
Beautiful💟💟💟💟👑
Wow. This is so cool. I just got my featherweight. Your work is beautiful. What kind of thread do you use?
Wow, this is amazing! How long did this take?
This is so beautiful, how are you doing this? How have you dropped the feed dogs on that singer ?
Oh, such expertise, I'm just getting into sewing and this is one area that i'd like to follow. I have a question for you. What''s your thoughts on doing your kind of work between doing it with no embroidery foot and using one? pros and cons.
marvelous work. I like to hear more sound and telling us your thoughts. Thanks
I feel that it depends on who you are and the machine you are using as to weather you use a foot or not. I find that a foot hampers my view of what I am doing.

Thank you, such great work
Hi! Your video is so inspiring! Can I have a QUESTION? Yesterday night I tried it on my featherweight as well but sadly My machine couldn’t form a stitch. I took out the feed dog, I did everything you showed in your machine setting up video! But somehow no stitch… so my question is: do I need to buy a feed dog covering plate and an embroidery foot for my FW machine?
Thank you so much! Your are my hope in this matter 😍
WOW
Super
I used to do that, when I lived in Kyrgyzstan
Love it! Where did you buying the tread for embroidery?
It is just regular spooled thread.
Beautiful! ! What do you have wrapped around your hoop?
Thank you! Strips of 1 inch cotton fabric......keeps your fabric from slipping in the hoop.
Wow! Amazing. Did you have to drop the feed dog underneath?
MASTER!! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
Ur works are always beautiful. I want to ask though; is it necessary to remove d moving teeth when doing free motion embroidery on a straight treadle machine?
Yes, you must either lower the feed dogs or remove them.
Never thought of removing the FD teeth. Thank you. Old Elna with set teeth.
Absolutely beautiful! Saw this and your deer patten video. Subscribed. Regular thread. So what is in the bobbin? Matching thread with every color on top? Are you using the straight up & down regular stitching? Doesn’t look like zigzagging. You are controlling where the stitches land. I see you commented 1 in. cotton fabric around the hoop for better fabric control. How does one get their pattern onto the fabric? I’m new to sewing & collecting. Thank you! You’re an inspiration to us all! Blessings to you! 💗🧵
I also do freehand embroidery, you can use the same matching bobbin or you can use a bobbin to match your fabric color. You don't want to use anything else or you could have some strange things happen.
You can transfer the designs with a light table. I usually sketch what I want out and use a thin led light board that's about the size of a piece of large paper. I don't remember where I got it. You should hoop with stabilizer it first before transfering your image. You could also use window light! Use a pencil for light fabric or a washable white gel pen for darker ones.
It is a straight up and down stitch with regular embroidery thread. I use a commercial thread for use in bobbins but serger thread also works very well as it is thinner than regular thread. You want your top thread to pull down to the underside so it doesn't matter the color of the bobbin thread........I never, ever use any stabilizer. It isn't necessary if you hoop your fabric properly, I get absolutely no puckering. If you don't have a light table you can just hold the fabric up to the window with the drawing underneath and trace it. There are other ways that I do it without having a light table.
Hello I have a old hand wheel singer I see you have pulled the embroidery hoop very tight with extra fabric ,did you remind the dog feed? Thanks for showing this lovely work beautiful embroidery very specific to needle timing do you have a foot postal?
I remove the feed dogs and yes it is a foot pedal.
I'm having trouble with bobbin thread showing on top. I"ve tightened the bobbin tension some, may have to do more. I don't want to have to use matching thread on the bottom all the time. I tried serger thread as I heard you mention in another video but it still tends to pull through. I have the top tension all the way off. But if I use the same thread below as above of course I can't see it. Suggestions? It's a Japanese Singer clone.
Are you sure that the bobbin screw is tightening properly? Some times they have dust and lint under the tension thing that the little screw tightens into and then into the bobbin...sorry don't know the name of that little tiny piece of metal.
I think I figured out what to do. I was watching a video a few days ago about the top tensioner and how to adjust it for my mother-in-law's machine and it made me think about mine. So I fiddled with it and loosened it out some. I tried it tonight with serger thread in the bobbin and embroidery thread in the needle and NO BOBBIN THREADS CAME THROUGH!!!! I'm so happy.
So sweet so much
This is gorgeous. What thread are you using?
woow...is that mechine zigzag or you did it by moving with you hands...?
No, she's moving the frame with her hand back and forth. The patience on this lady is amazing, isn't it?
This is fantastic. I’ve been attempting to learn using a Singer 201k. But whenever i try the fabric in the hoop (to be clear…not the hoop itself…just the fabric immediately under the needle area…it bounces so much I can’t see what I’m doing properly, and it means I’m skipping stitches… the machine has been serviced properly, and recently) keeps bouncing too much. Do you, or anyone else, have tips to help me with that, please?
This is beautiful. I will try this on my treadle! And on my Featherweight! I notice you do not use a foot at all. How can your machine work without a foot? Mine get very unhappy with no foot - the stitches don't form. Is it because the work is hooped so tightly that the fabric cannot jump up and down with the needle?
Your machine can do FM work without a foot, but don't forget to lower the presser foot lever. That is what causes the tension to engage and form the stitches, so you have to be sure and lower it even though you're not using a foot (it's easy to forget!)
Yes...just because you don't have a foot on doesn't mean you don't have to lower the lever.....and yes...your fabric has to be hooped incredibly tight or it won't work!

What brand and type of thread do you use?
Can I try to make this work (If it is posible ja ja ) with my sewing machine 301 a?
You should be able to!
Hi What are your stitch settings, length of sticth ( straight os zig zag)?
Are you using stabilizer on backing?
No.... I do not use any stabilizer nor any backing.
Does this mean a free motion embroidery machine can do any designs because the person is controlling the movement of where it goes?
Yes!
How do you use the machine without a foot I tried it but doesn’t stitch without the foot?
It does...you just have to have everything else set properly.
Hello, je suis Zohra d'Algerie je suis impressionée par votre travail , ça me motive à apprendre mais j'ai peur . Je vous demande plus de video pour pouvoir y arriver merci beaucoup
Does the 221 only have straight stitch or does it have a zigzag stitch too?
I think it is all straight stitch.

Please how do you set the stitches
I don't set any stitches...it is all free motion work. My hand movements create the stitches.
