Thank you! What you describe at 1:36 in the video solved my problem. Using method #1, I was having trouble with the top threads being trapped under the fabric. After clipping the top threads, I would pull the fabric back and basically be breaking some 'top' threads that were under the fabric and seemed to be jammed up with the looper. By turning the wheel in the opposite direction to raise the needles, those top threads were released, and I could pull the fabric freely. I don't know why this tip isn't in the manual!
I hope this makes sense - When I bought my first serger 27 years ago(!), I was taught to leave a very long thread tail when sewing off the fabric, pull those threadd fairly straight then using a large eye, blunt needle, fold the thread over it to make a tight fold. The fold, (bundle of thread), then feeds through the needle eye easily when gripped tightly with your nail. On the back side, you run this thread bundle down the back of the seam, put fray check on it. Let dry then trim flush. If showing doesn't matter, I run it straight down the center, if I want to hide it, I bury it in the seam edge. I about cried when I realized how much time it saved me making baby clothes at the time! It's a girls best friend ♡
I think I can imagine! I have never been shown this method, but it sounds very clever. Will try it for sure and see if I can figure it out. Thank you so much for the tip, I love learning new stuff, it's one of the best things about sewing :-)
Jag har nyss köpt en cover (Babylock Euphoria) och jag testade att dra ut de klippta trådarna bakåt som du visar men de hamnar inte på baksidan, tror du att det kan skilja sig från olika modeller eller kan det vara dålig teknik av mig? :D Tack för alla fantastiska videos!!
Hi, my name is Debby from Wisconsin in the US. It seems I remember you have a book on Cover stitching? I just bought a Cover Pro 1000 by Janome and could use a good "know how book" as the their website has nothing. If you do have a book can you please send me a link so I can buy it. Thank you..Debby
Yes you can, with the caveat that very very rarely it will let loose if not done 100% properly, so you can always secure the threads with a hand sewing needle to make it extra secure 👍

Thank you for the best explanation that I have seen about removing fabric from the coverstitch machine.

You my dear, are a god send!! I tried watching other videos etc but your tutorial-as usual-did the trick. Thank you!
Great tip with the crochet hook! Thanks.
This is amazing, thank you! I have been pulling the looper lever out to release the thread, then just hoping I hold onto all the threads tight enough!
Love all your tips and tricks videos - thank you please keep them coming. Your explanation and video were very clear and easy to understand.
This is like the best compliment I could ever get :-) Thank you so much!
Great tips! I use tip one and was the very first thing I learned on my cover stitch machine!
Excellent! It's probably the most versatile and clever!

Thank you so much for getting my book, and I use a Janome CPX 2000 to demonstrate, so it will be familiar for you!
Tusen tack =) Nu känner jag mig säkrare =)
About nr 1 method. Is the Sewing so Secure, that I can just clip all the threads off
Yes you can, with the caveat that very very rarely it will let loose if not done 100% properly, so you can always secure the threads with a hand sewing needle to make it extra secure 👍
The Last Stitch thanks. Do I have to Secure all the many threads og only some of Them?
