Skjøting av vatt

 Mange små vattbiter kan fint sys sammen og brukes til større ting. Legg to biter sammen.

 De skal overlappe hverandre litt.

 Brukk rullekniv, og skjær bølgemønster på frihånd der hvor lagene overlapper hverandre.

 Fjern de løse delene.

 Sy sammen med sikksakksøm. Jeg bruker trestings-sikksakk fordi det gir finest resultat.

This is how I join pieces of batting.

Easy jeans fixing tutorial

I have three young sons, so jeans whith wholes are well known around here. It's a known fact that fitting those tiny little pants under the sewing machine is almost impossible. But if you use your darning foot it can be as easy as pie.

You need some vliesofix, a darning foot and some sturdy fabric. I use denim.

Iron vliesofix unto the denim, and pull the paper off.

Cut the denim into suitable pieces. I usually make a whole stack when I'm at it.

Zigzag the patches. I use my serger because it's fast and the seam looks nice.

Iron the patches to the pants.

Use the darning foot and set your machine as if you were free motion quilting.

Sew around the patch. I also like to make a few seams across to make sure it will stay put.

All done! I hope you find this useful. Good luck.
