Steam-A-Seam 2 Double Stick Fusible 1/2'' Tape By The Each Review

Steam-A-Seam 2 Double Stick Fusible 1/2'' Tape By The Each
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Want to find an easier way to hem slacks, without sewing? For years I have used Stitch Witchery and it is a fine product, BUT unexpectedly I came upon a product called Steam-A-Seam 2 Double Stick Fusible l/2" tape. It is so easy to use. It sticks to the fabric so all that is needed is to fold the fabric, enclosing the tape, and then press a steam iron on top for about 10-15 seconds. So easy. So fast. Great product.

Very inconvenient small strips that are attached with masking tape. Once detached, half of the strips are sticky and unuseable due to the masking tape. Will never buy these again.

I struggled with this product the first couple of times I used it, but ultimately I have found this to be an EXCELLENT product. Our Isshinryu school requires a very large patch on the front of the uniform, with smaller patches on each shoulder and lower front of gi. I have used this product successfully on four of my own gi's which get VERY sweaty and are frequently washed, and both of my children's uniforms as well. I have also attached all of my son's Royal Rangers scout group patches and badges to his uniform with great success. The oldest karate gi with patch attach is five years old now, and the patches are still holding strong! Here's a suggestion: Follow the directions, use a pre-heated iron on a linnen setting. Apply the heat for about a minute and a half through a wash cloth over the patch. Carefully remove the wash clothe and let the patch cool. Apply the heat again without the washcloth for another 30 seconds and let cool again. Turn garment inside out and apply heat to the back of the patch directly through the opposite side of the garment for another 30 seconds. This method has worked for me EVERY time.

Why is this item $50,000??? I can get the used one for $25. What parts are included that are worth $49,975?? The package says that the Buttoneer attaches buttons "and more". Are the "and more" items included? Are they diamonds or precious gems? Just asking.

Followed instructions and the very next day the patches were off on the corners and peeled off very easily when I pulled on them. My son did not even wear the jeans after I ironed the patches on, they just came off. I don't know if these patches work for anything else, but most certainly are not made for use on denim. It's deceiving because they are denim color so you assume you can use them for jeans, but what a waste of time.

Big Sky Riding Skirt Pattern Review

Big Sky Riding Skirt Pattern
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I made the 'Big Sky Riding Skirt' for a dear friend. It fit her beautifully. The skirt has a 21st century look, with clean-lines; quite versatile with the button-front panel which folds (button-down) to the right leg. The leg openings are roomy. The look is more than ranch-style; it's urban-chic!!!

Bring out the cowgirl in you! Equestrian women of the early 20th century, who were determined to ride astride rather than sidesaddle, wore these divided skirts. An ingenious fashion, with front panel that buttons one way for a skirt and the other way for pants. Pattern is derived from a skirt worn by legendary rancher and rodeo rider, Fannie Sperry Steele. Suggested fabrics: Medium to heavyweight cottons and blends such as poplin, denim, gabardine, corduroy; linen; light to medium-weight wools; suiting weight silks

Quick Snap Replacement Kit 1/2" Snaps Review

Quick Snap Replacement Kit 1/2 Snaps
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought these to use on a car cover. After about a month, unlatching them maybe 15 times, some of the snaps are already kind of worn out. I can see rust on some of them, but mainly, 1 out of 4 will not 'snap' anymore. It sort of attaches loosly, but you get no click, and it detaches too easily. I bought this kit because I only needed about 4-6 snaps, and this was a cheap kit. It was easy enough to install, but if the snaps wear out in such a short time, then they are not worth the trouble. I will try to buy another brand, but I have not looked around yet.

I ironed on these products to a pair of pants, and they seemed to stay. By the time I put the pants on the next day and walked around for a few minutes, they fell off.

Janome 712T 10 Stit. Buttonhole Flatbed Sewing Machine Review

Janome 712T 10 Stit. Buttonhole Flatbed Sewing Machine
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
okay, i think this is my first review of a product ever! but when i was looking around for sewing machines i found it very frustrating that there were not any reviews on some things so i thought that i would do my part =D
first of all, this machine is amazing!! before purchasing this, i was using an older White machine and it was electric...i was always having problems with the bobbin and threading and it not working etc. i have no had one problem since i first started using this machine (about 2 months ago now). i do need to add that this machine sees daily use...we cloth diaper in our family and i have been making an entire stash for my son and my soon to be daughter. this machine can sew through multiple layers of fabric (thick fabric) without a problem!
my favorites:
-no electricity needed for this machine to work
-super easy to thread
-the most amazing bobbin system i have ever used (SO easy)
-very strong, sturdy machine
this machine is mostly metal which is hard to come by now a days...there are some plastic parts but the pieces that matter are metal...i bought an old treadle sewing cabinet off of craigslist for about $40 and this fit into it just fine....i bought a singer sewing cabinet
you will need to purchase a belt separately and they are about $12, you can just google treadle belts and various sites will pop up, they are a standard length and you cut them down to size according to your cabinet and machine.
you wont regret this purchase!!

Heavy-duty sewing machine developed for our Amish customers in Lancaster County. This machine was developed by Janome from the school model S750, but adapted for treadle by removing the motor, electric and adding a treadle handwheel.

Janome HD1000 Heavy-Duty Sewing Machine with 14 Built-In Stitches Review

Janome HD1000 Heavy-Duty Sewing Machine with 14 Built-In Stitches
Average Reviews:

This machine is a real workhorse. I worked in a tailor shop for years on a Bernina and fell in love with their machines, but could never afford one. This machine is as easy to use and works as well as a Bernina and I have since found out that Janome makes some of Bernina's machines for them, specifically the Bernette.
I just got this machine this week, but I absolutely LOVE it. I have gone through multiple layers of fleece without so much as a hiccup and have also done some finer work on thin cotton material, also without a hiccup.
It is a metal arm & base with some plastic parts. Has a storage box right on the front which is handy, and is very easy to change stitches, etc.
Definitely worth the money. You won't regret purchasing this machine.

With unsurpassed quality, a cast aluminum body, drop feed, a free arm, an automatic needle threader and much much more the Janome HD1000 is quite an impressive machine. The Janome HD1000 is powerful enough to be called a Heavy-Duty Machine (HD stands for Heavy-Duty) yet is light enough to be taken on the go. This machine can go wherever you go and give you solid performance. The HD1000 has snap on and off sewing feet for easy presser foot changes. The Janome HD1000 has dual thread spool holders, a great feature for twin needle sewing. No more aggravation over the tension, an easy to adjust tension control gives you complete control over the tension on the HD1000. The HD1000 has 14 built in stitches including utility stitches, stretch stitches and a simple to use 4 Step Buttonhole. The HD1000 has a free arm so you can sew cuffs, pants and collars with professional results. For those times you need to put your HD1000 to rest there is an included soft cover to protect your wonderful machine. The HD1000 even has a Built-In Automatic Needle Threader- Just pull down the needle threader, put your thread in the hook and in front of the needle, pull back and your needle is threaded! The HD1000 comes with a bunch of great accessories including bobbins, felt, extra needles, two screwdrivers, seam ripper/buttonhole ripper, zipper foot, hemmer foot, buttonhole foot and a hem guide. Many people say "Nothing is made of metal anymore."Well they are wrong! The HD1000 is a cast aluminum body machine. Just like the machines of years ago that lasted forever, the HD1000 is made to last. The HD1000 sewing machine allows you to drop your feed dogs - A great feature when attaching buttons, darning, stippling and other free motion applications. The extra high presser foot height gives you peace of mind when sewing bulky fabric. The HD1000 sewing machine comes with an accessory storage compartment to put all your included accessories. This beauty can sew up to 840 stitches per minute!!!
