The idea of not stitching over intersections, thus allowing for the “origami” nesting of the four corners at the center seam is helpful in so many sewing applications. Thank you for this teaching!
OMG. Mind blown. 4 years late…..but this got shown to me today. Thankyou! This will most definitely help me. As he was mentioning, this can be applied to the collar-lapel junctions that have ALWAYS been a bane to me. No matter how much I pinned and basted, I rarely got the 4 way junction aligned first go, or second go, or third go. Also, permisssion NOT to clip away seam allowances is great. I tend to agree - leave them there for stability and alter ability if you can. I will also second another commenter regarding looking at Mr King’s invisible zipper insertion method utilising artery clamps. It’s the only method I use now and is practically foolproof.
Ah what a nice simple way to do this. I too like to keep the fabric of the seam allowance - after cutting it off and regretting it. Thank you for this video.
Thanks for teaching me to stitch the seams together on the stitches of the seam. Thanks , too, for showing the double tracing wheel and for relieving me of thinking I was too fussy drawing seams on fabrics. On my first and only quilt top, I drew all the seams and ripped my wandering stitches and did 'em again until I was on the lines.
I learned the double tracing wheel trick friom my grandmother and she just a rubber-banded to sync together side by side, that was her preferred spacing. My preferred spacing needs a glue gun and some buttons to arrive at my preferred spacing. It doesn't matter what the preferred spacing is, as long as it works for you! Although it is nice to know that they actually make those doohickeys! I've never seen a commercial one until this video! Cheers
This was very informative! Thank you. I just finished an item that was not matched as I had hoped. It appeared that it was going to intersect correctly but didn't. I did leave it but example will make me a better sewer in the future. Much appreciated!
Have you ever seen Kenneth D King's method for inserting invisible zippers? I used his method to insert an invisible zip into my daughter-in-law's wedding dress. It is the only way I do my invisible zippers now. But first of all you will have to get yourself a hemostat. My husband and son both use these when tying flies for trout fishing. If you're not aware they are a surgical tool but work well for invisible zips and fly tying!!
Dear Kenneth, Thank you, you are such a nice person. I love you
Perfect🎉
Love your sewing pants. Really cool
Brilliant! Thanks, Kenneth!
Thank you! This was so helpful in conquering the dreaded, but lovely, intersecting seems!

Grateful for your help.
Thank you for showing us this kind of seams, I love it’s never done it’s like that. Thank you again ✨💛✨
Thank you very much. Is this how intersecting seams at the crotch of pants would be sewn?

Thank you, Kenneth is a god send his videos are very insightful, wonderful and well thought out..
I need to know how to make one of those ironing posts. Is it just a board with fine batting and muslin fabric?
