The Perfect Piecing Seam Guide

By Essie Osborn


One could arguably say that he who wears a particular cloth or attire is the only person who knows the good and bad that accompany that cloth. This is one of the main reason why some people tend to mend, repair or even make their own clothes by themselves. A perfect piecing seam guide can come in handy in such a case. However, one needs to learn how to sew and this article brings some of the vital information needed by sewers.

The first step is, through the hole in the gauge push through the needle and then place it beneath the presser foot. This is after keenly making sure that the model is perpendicular to the throat plate. In turn, lower the presser foot. Keenness ought to be observed as a wrong move can cause injuries on the individual using it.

Secondly, close enough to the feed dogs, place a slight part of a feet or two from the sewing edge. Slicing the piece which shawls the bobbin seal. This is to allow one to expose and successively cover it while working. The sewer can make up additional ways to lifting the bobbin seal to prevent them from the ruler.

The third step is automatically determined depending on the fabric one uses and the type of thread one uses. The thicker the thread the more adjustments mathematically one can do to ensure the shape and design of the idea to be sewn will undergo.

For those who do not know the whole process a guide is quite beneficial to them. It should be constructed in the best language possible. One ought to easily understand the instructions given in this guide. This will ensure an individual can replicate the whole process and attain the result he or she desires. A good model should include this and educate the individual.

The model ought to be affordable to those who want to have one. The relative cost of attaining a guide should not be huge compared to the cost of getting the tools one can use in whole sewing process. The measure should assist on the process to learning the art not prevent one from actually benefiting.

The second, a good model should be illustrative, informative and employ the use of diagrams and pictorial description. Not every individual can apply written illustrations quite practically in the sense that he will do what is exactly being instructed. This art is majorly a women job, learnt and done by the elderly who could be slow in the sense that they can internalize fully what is being written. For this reason a good gauge should factor in this. There should be the use of pictures and diagrams for them to relate to and enhance their understanding.

It is hard to have a comprehensive and good model for one to use in the process of sewing. However, this does not imply that the present guides are off the hook for people to use.
