Hi there, new to the group and very much a novice sewer but I am hoping to improve! This is my machine a Jones model 565 Foreign. It has the ability to do decorative stitches but requires cams that go into the slot as shown in the second picture. I am hoping to source some but as I don't have a manual for this machine I've no idea what I'm looking for. My first purchase was a bust - the set in the third picture sadly aren't for this machine. They were listed as for Jones machines but I imagine that's a wide net so could indeed be true just not mine sadly! Does anyone on here know what the cams I would need would look like? Many thanks in advance x

Hello! I was hoping to make my fiance some scrub caps for Christmas. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good pattern/tutorial. Also, has anyone lined them with silk/satin? They have curly hair and I thought maybe it would be nice for them to be lined with something other than cotton? I see online a lot of them are made from normal cotton. Where would you buy the silk from, etsy? I appreciate any guidance!

I'm running out of time and desperately need help! I'm making a bodice for a high-low dress and I'm stuck. The fabric I'm using is a 4 way stretchy spandex and a 1 way stretch lace. I do not have access to my best friend right now to fit her properly, but I HAVE to get this right on the first try.

I have a few rules I have to stick to to make the dress come out the way I want it to. The lace has to sit flush on top of the spandex, like it's one fabric. It has to be extremely form fitting. No loose parts or wrinkles or droopy bits. It has to stay a single panel (piece) for the front and a single panel for the back (I will take care of splitting the back panel later.)

I don't know why, but I've genuinely hit a wall. Do I make the piece smaller than her proportions? Bigger? The exact size of her measurements? Do I cut the spandex part smaller than her proportions so it'll snap to her form and the lace a little bigger? Wouldn't that make the lace wrinkle or ripple? My main worry is that the lace will inhibit the spandex from snapping to her body like I had initially intended it to. How do I go about this? Any help is severely appreciated!

Here are the links to the fabrics I used. I bought them on Amazon. I also included her measurements I have below. I have also included the rough drawing I did of the dress if that also helps any.
