 Hi, are there any tips at all that can help me with my sewing. I need to learn how to sew on the machine slowly enough to be able to do my reverse stiches properly and also control the stich for example when sewing a dart. Thank you.

Re: Tips on Sewing

Dear josephor,

With enough practice you will be able to control the speed of the machine and be able to do reverse stitches easily. Make sure not to go over the edge while reverse stitching. Get a piece of fabric and practice sewing with the lowest pressure on the foot pedal, this way you will become familiar with your machine.

To see how to sew darts you can watch the skirt sewing video lesson specifically chapter 30.

Happy sewing,

Nehzat
