A simple way to give your overlock stitches a clean, professional finish.

This is the method I use to secure the thread tails so they stay neat and don't unravel.

Do you use a loop turner or a yarn needle?

How I sew shirring on my vintage Brother sewing machine.

These settings worked well on my machine, but you may need to adjust the tension slightly depending on your sewing machine and elastic thread.

Have you ever tried shirring?

Part 2: The sewing test!
I tested this budget Lidl sewing machine on cotton, stretch fabric, denim, and even a decorative stitch.

For the price... I really can't complain. It handled the tests surprisingly well and would make a great beginner sewing machine.

What do you think?

Can a budget sewing machine still sew well after 10 years? 🤔

My sister-in-law bought this Lidl sewing machine nearly 10 years ago for simple clothing repairs. Now it's time to see how it performs!

I'll be testing it on: 🌿 Cotton (75 universal needle) 🤸 Stretch fabric (80 ballpoint needle) 👖 Denim (100 denim needle)

Part 2: The sewing tests begin!
