    I love y’all! Poor Rob… I don’t know that I’d be brave enough to assist anymore. 🤣 I’m not afraid to gather with thread, but never thought about using diff colors. That’s next level “geniusing” 🤣 (Y’all are going to have me making up words all day now)

    • @handmadeharriells

    The look on your face when Rob identified the bobbin threads is the same look I gave my civilian mom when she said something about basting stitches the other day. So proud! I'm definitely going to be changing out my bobbin thread color for gathering from now on. And the pins for the thread tails? Freaking genius!!!

    • @handmadeharriells
      @handmadeharriells  2 года назад

    Love this! Who knew you could get sexual innuendo into a gathering tutorial! 😂 question: how come it’s easier to pull the needle thread out when it’s harder to gather with the needle thread? I’d have thought the higher tension would make it harder 🤔

    I’m new to sewing so please excuse my ignorance, but why would you need to take gathering out? Is it just if a mistake is made, or is it a technique of some sort to gather and then remove the gather?

      Yes, as small footprint said ! And no question is ignorant, there’s always something to learn in sewing no matter what your level.
      To ramble on a little more, the gathers will lay much prettier if you remove those stitches after sewing up your seam 💗
