In the last 20 minutes, I have seen 4 videos about the differential and this is my fifth and last one. I needed to see HOW it worked in order to understand and wow! You just nail it. I can see the commitment on teaching right there on the naked machine 😅. Just wow... Thankful ✨
Thanks so much for this video, I love 😍 „the naked series“...! I knew before, WHAT differential transport does, there’s a bazillion of videos which tells you: „set high, for ruffles, set low, to sew on elastic“, but this is the only video I’ve ever seen, which explains HOW it works! Now this may not turn me into a master seamstress, BUT I‘m sure: The better you know your machine, and the more familiar you are, with how it actually works, the more confident you‘ll get, in using it. I don’t know if this makes any sense... what I‘m trying to say is: Especially in the past, women often where literally kept away from anything, that was considered „too technical“ (perhaps because our brains might easily be blown by technical questions, perhaps to preserve the jobs of people, who have the technical know how, and can help us, when we don’t know what to do next, and which we are forced to call then), we were told to „push the yellow button on the machine“ if we want to do this or that, or „never to push the red button on the machine“, but nobody told us, why, and what will happen if we do so. I have a different serger than yours, and after watching this great video, I feel pretty confident, to use ANY serger, because I now know, what I‘m actually doing. Thanks again, keep up this gorgeous series! 😘 from Germany
Hi there. You’ve hit the nail on the head. I think you’ll definitely understand how to use machines (and any model / brand) more if you know how the individual components work rather than just what to call them. People struggle with overlockers because of scaremongers who have tried, tested and failed. I want to make it all easy for everyone x thank you so Much for your feedback x I’m so pleased and excited anyone is watching and appreciating this on my including viewers all the way in Germany 💕💕💕🌷 (I have worked in a “mans world” so I know exactly what you’re saying and you’ve understood my goal 🌷💕💪🏼
I went to school in the 80s. I dared to take an electronics class, as the only girl. The class was addressed to as „good morning, MEN!“. Whenever I had a question, the teacher answered it by „can anyone answer THIS question?“, always making me feeling like the most stupid person in the world. Of course, my male classmates tried to answer my questions, but as they were pupils themselves, it often lead to blahblahblah. Today I think, the teacher was probably scared of me. And not a very good teacher anyway. Although he gave me a hard time, I kind of pity him. He might have chosen to teach an electronics class, because he probably was scared of girls, in general. And there came a 14-year-old female intruder into his pretty electronics world. Might have been something he couldn’t deal with. But he achieved to make me scared to ask technical questions. For over twenty years. So glad I‘ve overcome this, thanks to people like you!
Thanks so much for these tips. I've recently started watching your videos and they're quite knowledgeable and detailed. Enjoy the way you give details on each aspect of the Overlocker. Keep up the good works.
I have just been watching your videos and I must say you are one very clever lady. And saying that I am tempted to learn my wife's over locker and have a go at making those lounge pants in one of your previous video's. Keep up the good work and I am looking forward to the next video. Thank you for your time.
I love your videos. Your really do explain things really well. I've just bought my first ITY knit fabric and have cut it out today. I plan on sewing it tomorrow and I'd like to do most of it on the overlocker. I'll try a test first using the information you have given and see what happens. Thank you so much.
@@AbisDen Well I've made a bit of a mess. I'm still learning to sew and I think I took too big a step. Stretch fabric is hard to work with. I'm glad I didn't pay a lot for it but I'm pleased I had a go. I'll definitely not give up though.
This is so useful Abi, I bought a an overlock 734Ds as my first machine (thought all sewing machines were the same😅) but I am happy your videos are helping me a lot to understand my brother, just waiting for my regular sewing machine to arrive and we'll start my first project and switch between the two...Just one question what feeds for very stretchy materials? Thanks

Amazing. Glad I could help
I have been seeing for 50 years and this is the first time I have fully understood differential feed.
Amazing, many thanks
Best explanation on what is really going on with the feed dogs and benefit with stretch fabric.
Thank you Boyd ✨
great information i have struggled to get to grips on this and i feel you have explained it perfectly and feel much more informed thank you
Brilliant. Goal achieved 💪🏼😊🧵
This is absolutely fantastic!!! Thank you for showing us HOW the machine works.
You are so welcome! ☺️
You are just brilliant. You make life easier for everyone. Thank you.

Eric, it’s wonderful to hear from a chap and convert you to become a sewer. Join us on the dark side and you’ll never look back!
This is so helpful, thank you!
You’re very welcome
This is amazing thanks! I really enjoy these technical vids!
Glad to hear it!
Thank you so much! I've been making a mess of this for ages and now I understand!
his is so helpful, thank you! good job
Thank you 🙏🏽
That was SO helpful! Thanks very much!!!

Ooh. Exciting. Please let me know how you get in. Good luck ✂️🧵🌷
@@AbisDen Hi Abi, I'll certainly let you know how it goes. I might chicken out of doing it but I'm about to start on the dress now.
@@AbisDen Well I've made a bit of a mess. I'm still learning to sew and I think I took too big a step. Stretch fabric is hard to work with. I'm glad I didn't pay a lot for it but I'm pleased I had a go. I'll definitely not give up though.
A very good explanation. Thanks.
thank you
Thank you very well explained!
If you use 0.7 or lower and sew on elastic band, that would be a bit more visually obvious that the piece was being stretched while being sewed
Thanks a mill. Great video.
My pleasure!
Thank you so much!

thank you greatly
You're welcome!
If I have an old machine that doesn’t have differential feed what do I do?
Hi have you then phased the loopers?
what brand and model is this?
