I finally learned to hand knit in 2021 (as a left-handed person, my quest to understand knitting has been a lifetime of struggles and failures hahaha). My first squares were open lace using a vintage knitting book that I found at my late grandmother's house, then I knit a pair of cabled leg warmers, and then jumped into this historic 1890s Victorian cycling sweater in Butterick's Fancy and Prac...

I needed a shirtwaist to go with my other items of 1890s Victorian clothing, and decided to attempt transforming a used "fast fashion" men's button-down dress shirt branded as 'Perry Ellis Portfolio'. I used the drafting instructions for "Basque number 2" from the 1896 Eureka Lady Tailor System (archive.org/details/everyladyherown00molp/page/n3/mode/2up) and a previous attempt at drafting this ...

Why do my clothes twist? Have you ever wondered that? The answer can be found in the grain line. When I started using repurposed fabric, I didn't have a clue how to find the warp and weft directions. When you have a selvedge edge, it's easier - warp runs parallel to the selvedge (or selvage, depending on which side of the Atlantic you reside!!! But when it's an already-cut item that you're usin...

Sweat can be a real annoyance! It may be designed to serve a useful purpose, but that dark patch doesn't look great, does it? I became aware that I needed to take precautions to protect my corset, shirt, and other items of historical fashion from sweat, so I decided to make a sweat barrier myself. Seeing as most options on the market appear to be disposable, this video includes a close-up inspe...

    Your pitman arm balance wheel could probably be adjusted to sit a bit more snuggly, since that amount of wiggle room can add excessive wear to the mechanism. The arm itself can of course be replaced when it breaks. That part is trivial. But the fiddly bits around the balance wheel and other metal parts are more difficult to source.

    Thank you for making these videos, I see that you have not uploaded in quite some time, but the quality and clarity with which you've convayed the information has been invaluable to me when I've restored and modified a rusty old 1913 Singer Treadle. Thank you so much, and hope you're doing well.

    Oh my goodness, I'm so glad I found this video. I recently acquired a White brand treadle sewing machine made sometime between 1916 and 1922 (it was sort of dropped in my lap unexpectedly). I have no idea how to use a modern sewing machine, let alone a 100 year old treadle machine. The cabinet drawer was filled with all these attachments and I had no clue what the heck I was even looking at. This is so helpful, thank you! I'll actually know how to use the attachments properly once I restore the machine, which needs a lot of TLC.

    Excellent video. You really encapsulated my sentiments upon finding these intimidating attachments in the cabinet drawer of an old singer i purchased recently. I've been avoiding even looking at them until now 😅but this has given me the confidence I needed to learn about my machine a little bit more. Thank you! (Also, I noticed that you didn't cover a zig-zag attachment- are they not as common? The one downside of the vintage machines that I've noticed as a beginner is while they make excellent straight stitches, they lack in making stitches in areas where you may need more stretch.)

    I'm late to the show here but wanted to add something. I noticed that you thought your mock shield seemed larger than one you had in your collection. I wanted to note that maybe it was bigger because cloth tents to wick moisture and spread. I wonder if the shields prevent wicking and need less material than you think to protect your outer clothes.

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge on these pieces, it’s very difficult at times to find information on these unique presser feet and features for older machines. I love the older machines because they are more durable and are less expensive to care for in comparison to the newer models, which have electronic touch screens and made with plastic cases. I appreciate your videos so much. ❌⭕️🙏🏽♥️
