Always remember, it doesn't have to be the theme, post your work, post what you want to talk about as long as it has something to do with sewing in general, or the craft in general. We welcome everyone and will try our best to help you out. Yes, sewing is an art, it's a practicing art, you will always suck at it, but remember that everyone starts somewhere, so Google everything!

Or just show off your work.

BTW this thread has been going strong sense last Halloween and we're about to hit Halloween again! Neat!

Would a tool roll be a good first project? Can't ever have enough tool storage.

Anyone feels scared to start sewing sometimes? Like i'm scared of messing up, or maybe too lazy to make the intellectual required to plan everything. Moments where i succeed the most are spontaneous ones. If i mess up, where do i stock my messes, i dont want to throw it out. Being creative, having complete control on the outcome of your hardwork, it is scary
>>
>>2936946
Don't be afraid anon. Any mistake can be fixed - any. I've seen literal billion dollar mistakes that got fixed. The fabric is not sacred, it's ok to fuck up - you'll learn more from correcting your mistakes than from success anyways.

I totally get it, anon. Especially using a lot of 'once it's gone it's gone' vintage fabric, I put projects off for ages because I'm so afraid of fucking 'em up. You've gotta let go of the concept of the finished product and be able to appreciate it for what it is when it is done, even if it isn't perfectly what you envisioned.

How do those fabrics work that pro. ise to be waterproof but also breathable and so. etimes even windproof.
I imagine its hydrophobic somehow, so water just balls up on it and runs off while it's porous enough to breathe?
How can it then be windproof, by just being thick enough?
I'm asking because I am looking for a first real project and I would want a bivy sack. Could just buy one but why not make it?
A bivy sack needs to be breathable. Everything else is an emergency shelter and even dangerous in its own right.
It also must be durable enough to be on the ground.
I'd absolutely want mine to be bug proof. Perhaps with a net cover for the opening. It's the ticks and the diseases they spread.
What I don't really need but wouldn't mind:
If it was rainproof and wouldn't soak up moisture from the ground. Also the windproof thing wouldn't be bad.
I don't need those last things as I put up a tarp and if it gets wet under you fucked up with the tarp.
What sort of material to get? I imagine the bottom part would be something else than the top part. The bottom wont breathe anyways. I guess the bottom can be made from something that is more durable and literally waterproof. The top does not need to be as strong but should breathe and keep bugs out.
Suggestions?

>>2937193
>>2937238
I wouldn't recommend sharps or Microtex needles for anything that you're going to stuff, anon. The idea is that the needles pierce the fabric, rather than slipping between the weave, and so when pressure is applied from the stuffing, the stress is then put on the torn fabric rather than between the weave and you're more likely to get large holes and tearing later down the line. A heavier ball-point needle should be fine, like a 90. I always use 75 ball-points for mohair, which is thicker than most faux furs.

>>2937235
Wait, what machine are you using atm?

>>2937238
>the cotton weave I've used for pajama pants
Is it flannel? Another one I'd definitely use ball-point for. One tiny tear in the weave and flannel will fall apart after a few washes (which is a shame because it's a kino textile.)

It's not, just the same stuff you'd find cotton bedsheeds made out of.

That's actually even more specialized: a flatlock (or is it coverstitch?) machine. You can finish seams flat surprisingly with different methods on sewers and/or sergers.

Anyone here with an unusual and expansive knowledge of vintage sewing machine needles?
I was given an old toy sewing machine and naturally I must try to get it in running order as I do with all sewing machines I get my hands on.
The thing, after thorough cleaning, tweaking and polishing seems completely fine and capable except.... it's lacking a needle and the standard machine needle is too wide.

It's a Juwel made by George Kammerl, a German made machine from around the 40's through 50's. Single thread machine, very simple design. The shaft that holds the needle has a tiny round hole with a screw, maybe around 1mm in diameter, a fair bit narrower than the common machine needle shaft. If anyone knows which needle belongs here or even where to get it, I am all ears.
Pic is the machine when I just got it, it was seized up and didn't do anything initially.
>>
>>2937923
Are you in germany? Can you show the needle clamping bit?

>>2937923
>>2937931

I am close to Germany.
A 705 needle with the flat side is the most common machine needle, right? Those are the ones I have abundantly, scavenged from other machines. And those don't fit , the shank is too wide.

Pic related is the needle clamp, a bit tricky to capture on camera as I didn't want to disassemble it again.
It's just a round barrel with a round hole and a tiny screw to tighten the needle clamp. Also, considering the size of the machine, a standard machine needle may also be a few millimeters too long.

>>
>>2938034
I see, so it's probably up to the user to align the needle hole, or do you suspect the setscrew is supposed to rest on a flat?
Do you just want to get it working or use it productively and go through many needles?
>>
>>2938096
I couldn't detect a flat spot in the shaft so I assume you have to align it yourself but I can not say this with certainty. I don't have a manual either. Maybe the screw is meant to assist in alignment but since I still have no clue what the original needle is supposed to look like, this too remains a guess.

I don't intend to do heavy work with it, I just want it complete and functional, it can only do a single thread chainstitch anyway and very limited stitch length options.
I have been contemplating to modify a common needle but I don't really have the tools at hand.
>>
>>2938044
It looks great, an interesting idea! Any pictures from the other side?
>>
>>2938113
>modify
>no tools
Is why I asked where you at and how many you need. If you just wanted for it to qualify as complete and functional and not actually use up needles on it I could throw a 705 on a tool and cutter grinder, modify one for you and mail it out. Goes without saying it's probably better to ID the type, or modify the holder for 705 if originality is not the issue and also that modificytion is limited length wise.
>only do a single thread chainstitch
That's probably the only one mine does. I take it that for a long time people either hand sew or had that only and got by, right? What is stuff like overlock and all that really needed for? I'd like to know if my machine somehow could not inherently do the things I intend to use it for.

It's a belted external motor, not a treadle. Fun fact: 201-3s with external motors have aluminium wheels which are way lighter than the steel 201-1/2 wheels and have totally different belt beds for way smaller belts.
>>
>>2938267
PU belts come in all sizes, even V shapes and all if thats what you need. I mean yeah it's probably always better to get the belt that it was designed for and not replace everything with PU belts (like me/most of the time) but I mean if the three weeks is so much pain

Nah, I mean the total length/circumference of the belt. I need roughly 10", but the smallest I can find (at least within Australia) is 14". Although I guess it wouldn't have mattered whether I got a PU or rubber belt from China, it was always gonna take ages.

Idk if I can explain it very articulately without photos.
>Wheel of a 201-3 with external motor: Aluminium, belt bed is less recessed (needing 10" between wheel and motor.)
>Wheel of a 201 treadle: Steel, belt bed is deeply recessed so if this wheel is fixed to a machine with an external motor, you'd need like an 8" belt between wheel and motor.

The main upside to a rubber belt is that I can stretch it to work with any combination of wheel/motor.
>but all I really want is a hand crank that doesn't interfere with a motor belt so I don't have to flip between two machines.
>>
>>2938275
I dont think we're on the same page here. I mean belt stock, not an endless belt. Everyone and their mom stocks that stuff to make a belt from when the need for general power transmission arises and the result isn't even makeshift but a proper belt.
You just cut the length you need, warm the ends up, press them together and let cool. Some material might squeeze out and if youre pedantic you can just vut it off with a exacto.
Most PU belts stretch, which is cool. You generally dont have to cut the length too precise for it to work but if it for example slips you can tighten it by shortening the belt. Ofc rare reinforced PU belts might not stretch.
Just a pointer: The shape of the groove in a puley is not indicative of the shape of belt it was designed for. Or lets say no purely circular groove was ever designed to take a V belt but V grooves meant for round belts are a thing. It pinches the belt letting it transmit more.

You're not supposed to sew the longways strap onto the bag, you make a loop that it threads through to hold it in place. That way when you cinch it down it tightens all the way around, because it slides through the loop.
You can cut the straps and add more slide buckles, it'll be more steps to tighten it but should work as well.
>>
>>2938668
But if Icinch it down evenly on both sides it shouldn't be a problem if I fix it in botch places? I've jist copies (tried to) somsthing commercial I have.

Its 3 straps. On top they connect to a triangular flap. I imagine I can improve this and make it work by sewing straps to where they end and then either triangle or star configuration, to take the point loading off the fabric.

They're generally polyester treated with a hydrophobic coating, which gets washed away with use but can also be reapplied.
To be windproof it just needs to only let a bit of air pass through, and the more breathable it is the less windproof it will be, so it's always a compromise between breathable enough and windproof enough.

... so?
>>2939908 #
I think I found the answer to that in the mean time. The store sells 'laminates'. 2 or 3 layers of fabric or 'material' where usually the outer two layers will be some ripstop nylon stuff and in the middle there's a sheet of some sort of wonder membrane like maybe Tyvek or something. So the two layers of fabric provide a normal fabric feel and protext the literal trashbag with holes or whatevs. And the trashbag with holes sandwiched there does the breathing, wind and water blocking. You just cant help but wonder hoe they 'laminate' that without just glueing it ruining the properties of the membrane.
Anyways my updated design ideas will probably make do with just waterproof stuff and still be fine.

and the bobbin thread looks a bit rougher. But I guess the whole thing is that the same tension wont just apply for like super fine cloth or fat stacks of coarse stuff, right? Also that would mean the threads breaking strength limits what can be done anyways, right?

Pockets are a bitch, I did front pocket extension on my jeans recently and after 4 rows of stitches it holds firm but looks super sloppy.
Maybe get a piece of wire (copper, 2-3mm thick) bent into a frame that you can insert inside the pocket to keep it streched out while you sew?
Failing that, partially undo the stitches that hold the pocket so that you can get better grip, attach the patch and then pocket back to the shirt. More stitching but easier work maneuvering the fabric.

As someone who hasn't touched a sewing machine since Home Ec back in middle school, it was really straightforward to learn. Great machine for a beginner. It's made me realize I need to get better at pinning (especially when working with minky). I also worked up to using the medium speed setting now. The time saving compared to hand sewing is insane

Gave up on my misery and beat myself up to create no matter the result. I'm on a rampage now and nothing can stop me. I feel like a God bestowed by the upmost powers of creation. I can decide fate with my hands

I'm looking for a "just works" sewing machine for beginners
my main, or only, requirement is that it can sew slow, like really really slow, if it's one stitch at a time even better but that would be a little extreme
budget is €1000 and it must be available in yurostan
if anyone can suggest anything, it'd be greatly appreciated
reviews about sewing machines are almost non existent and no one ever talks about slow speed, only about fast speed
bonus points if it can sew thick materials like leather or fur

Oh sorry i dont know much about machines but when i was looking for mine i think i saw a youtube video talking about machines that go for different prices and one of them had a feature that let you pick the speed of the sewing, it may be higher than 1000 or at least close cuz it was an electrical one with the screens and all. U must alr kno this but just in case pressing slowly on the foot does stitch it slower, good luck

i don't think i'll have the skill for this :/ i'm beyond beginner. I've only stitched patches onto hats and this is my first time putting needle to a shirt. i've been quite lazy about trying though in all honestly. I can probably force my way into doing it but it might not look super great. The positive side is, I realize that it shouldn't be super difficult to do anywhere else other than a pocket! Thanks for the advice anon :) fluorescent string looks really cool
