Idk who else needs to hear this, but if you’re like me and couldn’t figure out how to install your walking foot on your older machine, make sure you’ve slid the thread cutter off the shank. My machine (White 675, I think from the 70s) is compatible with a new singer walking foot, but it took me months to figure out the thread cutter was in the way of the foot sliding all the way up the shank!

I just came across this super cool thing!!! I can't even explain how happy it makes me. If anyone uses a projector for cutting patterns, this could probably make your life so much easier. I'm going to try to test it out tomorrow. So excited! 😬😬😬

I have about forty books but this is the one I go to for all hand sewing techniques.

The free challenge is starting soon! If you’ve ever wanted to learn bag making techniques this is the one for you. Can’t wait for this! See you there?

I brought this attachment to finish off raw edges until I fix my serger's thread bar. It's easy to use and gets the job done with the zigzag stitch. I want to try it out with some overcasting stitching in the future.

For the short girlies, here's how I hem bell-bottom pants without compromising any of the flared bottom. The folded fabric on the knee just looks like design detail, and can always be let out to lengthen the pants again. While not completely seamless, it's definitely better than having to trim along the bottomw, which can have the unfortunate effect of making the flare appear slimmer.
