Follow these steps to achieve perfectly gathered fabric on your garment ✂️✨ Step-by-Step Instructions: 1. Mark the Points: Mark where the gathering starts and ends based on your pattern piece. 2. Prepare to Gather: Set the longest stitch length on your sewing machine. 3. Stitch the First Row: Starting at one marked point, stitch a row 5 mm from the edge to the other marked point. Do not backstitch at the beginning or end. Leave long thread tails. 4. Stitch the Second Row: Stitch another row approximately 5 mm next to the first one. This creates two rows of stitching. 5.

Sewing Patterns by ELOH on Instagram: "Sewists, I'm about to share an old but new to me technique courtesy of @arkdefo CRIMPING!! if you've never heard of it, sewers, this is what it is 👇🏽 Instead of using a double row of basting stitch to gather your sleevehead, use crimping instead. Way faster, just as effective 😍 This sewing technique was perfect because when you're using heavier weighted fabrics, a gathering stitch is a nightmare, so crimping does the job beautifully 😉 If youre a sewist and liked this, then you need to follow! I'm Lari the pattern designer behind ELOH patterns and I'm here to show you sewing doesn't need to be difficult with me and my sewing patterns 😘 . . . #indiepatterns #sewing #memade #isew #sewcialist #sewist #slowsewing #sewingpatterns" Gathering Sewing, Gathering Stitch, Gathering Fabric, Basting Stitch, Crimping, A Nightmare, Sewing Techniques, Sewing Hacks, Baked Goods
