  • Multifunctional Blanket Stitch By: Magdamagda
    Multifunctional Blanket Stitch By: magdamagda http://www.burdastyle.com/techniques/multifunctional-blanket-stitch What better time for hand sewing revelations than now when my sewing machine is in service? sigh I have been thinking about this for some time – one type of hand stitch that comes in handy in so many situations! I’ll point out the ones I thought about, new ideas are welcome! Known as the “blanket stitch” it can back up your sewing machine in some situations or even go where no sewing machine has gone before!!!! First this is how it’s done: I prefer to stitch right to left. Bring the thread to front at desired distance from the edge ( about 2 mm for buttonholes, 4-5 mm for serging). Take the thread over the edge of the cloth and pull the needle back to front through the same point. Make a loop around this thread segment at the cloth edge level. At some distance from the first “entry point” (3-4 mm for serging) and at the same distance from the edge thrust the needle from front to back and pull the needle through the loop formed by the remaining thread. You can help yourself by keeping the thread over the index finger of the left hand while doing so. Repeat, repeat, repeat..:) Tip: If you are serging, make sure not to pull the thread too much and cause the fabric to pluck. If you’re working on a button hole or doing some embroidery work pull the thread just right so that the thread remains straight: not too loose, not too tight:) Tip-tip:) : If the thread gets twisted on itself , you can straighten it out by sliding the needle close to the fabric and running the thread through your fingers from the fixed end towards the loose end (a few times) Note: Whatever you plan to use this stitch for, you’ll find it ideal when dealing with curved lines! A video to catch the basic move: Step 1 — [serging] Multifunctional Blanket Stitch 1 Use it for: 1) Serging (overcasting the raw edges of a fabric to prevent unraveling)..

Permission granted to copy and distribute in original form only. Content may not be altered or used in any other form or under any other branding. Content subject to change. OVERLOCKER / SERGER TECHNIQUES Once there is a basic understanding of how the overlocker/serger operates, such as threading, basic stitch formations and creating a balanced stitch, it is time to start refining these sewing techniques and skills. This machine can be a real asset to a sewing studio, and in no time it will be easy to utilize the amazing features of an overlocker to benefit all different types of sewing projects. This eBook will cover practical techniques like securing stitches, sewing corners and curves, as well as some decorative techniques including gathering, lettuce edges, flatlock weaving and blanket stitch. BERNINA L 460 OVERLOCKER Page 2 of 12 OVERLOCKER / SERGER TECHNIQUES SECURING A STITCH: Most often an overlock stitch is sewn over or into another seam, which automatically secures the stitch. However, there are times that stitches do not begin or end within other seams or edge finishes, so knowing how to secure the seam is important. Method One (Machine) Beginning: • Chain off approximately 3-4” of thread tail before taking the first stitch into the fabric edge. (Figure 1) • With needles down, raise the presser foot and pull the thread tail in front of the needles and lay on top of the fabric.

  • Sewing Pattern — Sweatshirt 4011
    Sewing Pattern — Sweatshirt 4011 Recommendations on fabric: sweatshirt fabric or fleece of medium stretchiness (natural or mixed) You will also need: separating zipper; bias tape of main fabric color If the pattern has double contour the seam allowances are included. If the pattern has single contour, the seam allowances are NOT included and need to be added when laying out and cutting details. Seam allowance: pocket opening – 0 cm, all other seams - 1 cm. Attention! First of all please print all the paper patterns and lay them out at the width of fabric you plan to use (usually from 90 to 150 cm) to see how much fabric you will need. Don't forget to count pair parts and symmetrical parts. When sewing the garment, pay attention to notches, they must coincide. CUTTING: (On the pattern pieces, “beam” means straight of grain. Lay out your pieces accordingly. Some pieces will be cut on the fold. This is noted on the pattern piece. Mark all notches and other design features such as darts, pleats etc. from the pattern onto your fabric.) Main fabric: 1. Center right front – cut 1 2. Center left front – cut 1 3. Side front – cut 2 4. Center back – cut 2 5. Side back– cut 2 6. Sleeve – cut 2 7. Collar –cut 2 8. Waistband – cut 1 9. Cuff – cut 2 10. Pocket lining – cut 2 Advice: sew knit pieces with special elastic/zig-zag stitches. If you use an overlock, cut seam allowances to 0.6-0.8 cm width. Topstitch hem allowances with double needle to save elasticity.

  • Taking Shape DARTS ADD SHAPE TURNING a FLAT PIECE of FABRIC INTO a THREE-DIMENSIONAL FORM to MATCH the CONTOURS of the BODY LINDA TURNER GRIEPENTROG

Darts can be horizontal, vertical or anywhere in between, straight or curved, but the stitching principles are the same. BThe goal of quality dart stitching is smooth, pucker-free points that don’t call attention to themselves. SHAPING A single-point dart is shaped like a triangle, and when stitched it takes a wedge of fabric out of the garment allowing for controlled fullness at the point. A single dart may be on the lengthwise fabric grain, angled or slightly curved. (1) A double-point or contour dart is diamond or rugby ball shaped, and is used to shape the waistline, leaving fullness at both ends for the bust and hip. (2) A French dart is a curved shape from the garment side seam to the bustline. This dart has cut edges joined like a seam. (3) V9082 Vintage Vogue, 1960. Misses’ A5(6-8-10-12-14) E5(14-16-18-20-22).

  • Sewing Focus Swimwear
    S EWING F OCUS TECHNICAL SEWING INFORMATION Swimwear Checklist for Sewing Swimwear Sewing Parameters: SCHMETZ Tip: Needle size NM SIZE 60 – 80 8 – 12 Depending on the thickness of the material. We recommend the use of the SCHMETZ SERV 7 needle. Needle point In the production of swimwear needles with ball points are mostly used. Those are the light ball point “SES” as well as the medium ball point “SUK”. When sewing elastic materials with highly elastomeric threads or rubber threads we recommend especially the heavy ball point “SKF” and the special ball point “SKL”. Sewing thread Needle thread and hook/looper thread are mostly core spun threads made from 100 % polyester, micro-fiber sewing threads and texturized sewing threads made from 100 % polyester or polyamide. Machine Many processes are carried out using industrial high-speed sewing machines. As the range in swimwear is however very comprehensive a number of automats as well as special sewing machines for closing seams and hems are required. The ideal sewing speed is around 3,000–4,000 stitches/min. Other factors: Thread tension The necessary thread tension depends on the fabric, the sewing thread and the sewing machine. The thread tension should be as low as possible to allow an optimal stitch formation. Stitch type Double lockstitch (stitch type 301 and 304), double chain stitch (stitch type 401), types of overedge chain stitch and cover stitch (class 500 and 600); all stitch types and classes according to DIN 61400. Stitch density The higher the stitch density the higher the elasticity and strength of the seam.

Dunne University of Minnesota, 1985 Buford Ave, St Paul MN, 55108, USA Tel.: +1 612 626-5901 E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received: 20 June 2016 /Accepted: 20 July 2016 /Published: 29 July 2016 Abstract: Truly wearable sensing poses challenges in many areas. To be successful, wearable sensors must preserve wearer comfort while providing accurate sensor data. Further, for widespread commercial production they must also be compatible with soft goods manufacturing. Here, we present a method of fabricating stretch sensors using common apparel sewing machinery. The response of sensors made using industrial coverstitch (two varieties) and overlock machines are compared, and the sensor response of a bottom-thread coverstitch is characterized in depth. Three conductive thread structures are compared in the bottom-thread coverstitch sensor. Results show a consistent and repeatable response for 4- and 5-ply threads, while 2-ply thread displayed more noise and less repeatability. Finally, this sensor is applied in a spinal goniometry application in three garment structures, and sensor performance is compared to motion capture data. The fabrication approach is promising for wearable sensing applications due to its manufacturability and comfort. Copyright © 2016 IFSA Publishing, S. L. Keywords:
