sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account?? I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me
@Grant Sage thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
I am so thankful I've stumbled upon your channel. Not only are you into vintage sewing but you're also teaching the terminology and what, where, when, and why of sewing as well. My life is complete!!!!!❤🧵🪡✂️
You are absolutely fabulously! I was in tears with frustration trying to learn how to sew without understanding terminology. You’re a wonderful teacher and a lifesaver. Bless your heart.
I really appreciate this video! For some reason, selvage is a term that I’ve struggled to remember the meaning of. I particularly love that you’ve included how the selvage comes to be, and the origin of all those little holes! Having just that little tidbit of information about where a fabric begins on a loom made a wealth of difference. Thank you, Evelyn!
Your too cute! I say this in a friendly level with absolutely no disrespect but you look just like my FAVORITE Disney character Snow White! Has anyone else ever told you that? I also appreciate your easy to understand and informational videos!
I found you when looking for the definition of selvage. I do not sew, but do knit and am learning to do brioche knitting. One instructor mentioned the first stitch on the row as being the selvage stitch. I needed to know more! Thank you for this great group of term videos. I have been able to apply these terms to understand my knitting better! Here's to the blending of fabric knowledge.
I just found you & Subscribed!!! I LOVE EVERYTHING VINTAGE TOO !!! Best Channel!!!! YES!!! Thank You!!!! LOVE THIS!!! Surely must LEARN THESE TERMS & so grateful for anything that you Teach us!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for making such interesting videos ! I'm currently studying sewing and costume making, but since I'm french I don't have the vocabulary in english. I love your channel to death ♥
I have fallen in love with your channel. But I must ask, could you do a hair and makeup tutorial? I'm assuming that goes off the normal thing of your channel, but you look so authentic and I would love to know how you do it. And yes this video cleared that up..I'm just beginning in the craft of sewing.
Thanks! 😘 I actually have been asked this alot! To do hair and makeup! It is a little off topic, but I'll likely do one in the future as I get asked so much!
I’m so grateful I found your Tutorial! I teach young girls to sew and explaining the straight of the grain and the cross grain, let along the bias is interesting. Sometimes I see eyes glasses over! I’ve told them that the holes on the selvage are from putting the fabric on the frame (thank you for the correct term, frame) and the straight threads go down the frame and the threads going sideways (across) are woven back and forth. The woof and the warp. I was hoping I was right and your tutorial was the only one I could that clarified this for me. Thank you.
I'm so happy to hear it!! At school I remember being told, how to remember which is which, that think of warp thread like 'warp speed' it goes on forever down the length of the fabric 😘
Than you Evelyn! I'm buying my FIRST SEWING Machine!!! and I DO NOT want ANY Digital COMPUTER IN IT!!! I want the good OLDFASHIONED manual Dial A Stitch type! So for a moderate Beginner, can you please suggest the BEST Brand Models to choose from? Soooo exciting! THANK YOU🌻🌻🌻
Hey, nice to meet you selvage 😄. I know you as lisière (i'm a french couturière ☺). Thank you Evelyn, i love all your videos and i'm learning english couture terminology with you. Bisous from France 😚
fabulous!! I thought this series would help non english speakers too! Do you find the closed captions help with this?? I want to start learning French! If only we could swap!
Evelyn Wood: no I don't use closed captions besause I don't know how to do. But, you will laugh, I've always said that sewing is an universal language. And REVERSO (the translator) is my best friend now ☺. If you want, I can teach you french?
On the video at the lower bar, next to the settings gear, if a video has closed captions it will have 'CC' just press it and you get subtitles! French lessons!!! Yes!! I don't know anything yet though!
oh, ok! Thank you for this information. I'll try it :) And this is your first lesson: "c'est un plaisir de te connaître chère Evelyn" (it's a pleasure to meet you dear Evelyn)
Thanks Evelyn, I actually thought it was a "TYPO " until you clarified the fabric EDGE as opposed to fabric "remnants " which might be considered SALVAGE from a scrap pile. By the way, I just signed up for a sewing class at McDougal sewing center here in Houston, Texas. Then eventually I will purchase a SAILRITE walking foot sewing machine before I tackle a drapes project for my home. My old Singer won't qualify for the large job. Onward & Upward ! J K
Right!!! I thought that was interesting to put in there! When the video on right and wrong sides comes out, I have a ninja trick about them in there too!
Aww Sarah don't give up! Just put it away when you need to! But just keep trying and just keep following tutorial and classes to educate yourself. practice, and you'll get better and better! xx
hi just want to firstly say thankyou so much for your videos. I just stumbled on your channel today and have learnt so much. Clearly presented and enjoyable to watch☺️
Thank for the suggestion! Learning to make a dress pattern would require a lot more depth than I could ever put into a youtube video though! Starting with making alterations to an existing pattern is where you want to start!
Question here ☝️ if you ends up with scrap with no salvage left visible and say on the next day, you decide to use this scrap for a piece but you need it on the grainline, how would you remember/know which one is which ?
@@tw6553 Hope this tip helps: The selvedge/selvege that is the lengthwise grain will have a tight pull to it. The crosswise grain will go across the body - that's how I remember it. If you have a sizable piece of fabric and are holding it up with the top selvege at the top and the bottom at the bottom of the fabric, you can cut a tiny snip into the top or bottom of the fabric's selvage and rip the fabric at the snip straight downward. This is known as 'truing' fabric, which will straighten the grain out.
Hi Mrs Wood. I just happen to watch your videos. This one is quite interesting and helpful. But how would you identify the grain of a cut piece of fabric. Thank you
I picked out this nice rib knit fabric that is kinda like a very long noodle. Its not a square piece and the only edges are at the top of it. and then all the way at the other end at the bottom. Would those technically be the Selvedge?
Hi Evelyn, I am making a window valence. I want to cut a strip of fabric from one edge of the Selvage to the other. I do not want to trim the Selvage but instead sew it and have it be part of the side seams. Can I do this? Just wondering.
Hello, my name is Sandra Humes, I want to take sewing classes, I’m not a beginner. I can sew plain blouses, pants, but I want to learn to cut and sew correctly. Do you give lessons in a group or private? How we would connect, via zoom. Are you in USA. Please let me know Thank you so much.
Hi Evelyn , my name is Jina and I'm a prophet that is in the world and as a woman of Montessori learning for my children and grandchildren I'm doing work for Jehovah and he guided me to you for lessons on sewing and I wanted to know if you have any knowledge on how to make your own patterns from scratch and could you help me understand how to be a Montessori sewer for children learning in the home cause I was not given any instruction on doing these things in my 5 children raising cause they wouldn't let me come and be a parent in the school system cause they hated me black, indian, german, and some French ancestry, but because I was given the privilege 😘🥰🧵🪡of being a person who walked with Jehovah on the streets of Arlington, Va - thru Washington D.C. people said that I was a Niger and that they missed blessing of being healed of Cancer and other things they were suffering so Jehovah asked me to text you and tell you that I was so upset at the world hating me black and I don't understand how people in the church could tell me to go to hell and not be given things to help me know that Jehovah loves them and I am trying to get people who help me learn now that I'm going to bless only the ones who appreciate my walk in the world and you are someone he gave me, so could you tell me how you hear him and why people don't ask him how to learn cause my parent didn't teach me much Jehovah taught me everything I needed to do for him with no bible and know church and raised my children with the education that was blessed to me to help them not do the destruction of the world and to not hate but walk with Jehovah in me controlling me and telling others to not tell me I can't have the riches of the world now, so please tell me what you can do to bless my children learning sewing information that we have online now. THANK YOU !!!!!! 🧵🪡🥰💌🦺💻
I hope this video explained it for you! Leave a comment and let me know!
Also if you have any other suggestions for me let me know!
Evelyn Wood I really enjoy your videos. They're so educational and I love your love for vintage refashioned items you transform.
sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account??
I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me

Evelyn Wood that would be awesome. I'll keep a look out for it
Yes please. I really wouldn't mind an "off topic" video like that. Your eyebrows intrigue me.
It won't be for a while though! I have many sewing videos to make!!
ha ha that is funny! I've never thought much about my eyebrows! What is it you would like to know? Perhaps I could do some stories on Insta??

This is great!! Im sure you will learn alot, and just keep practicing! You'll get those gorgeous drapes!
Wow you're really great at explaining this sewing language! Thank you.
I’m very new to sewing. How do you find the selvage from fabric scraps? I’m sewing small items to practice on.
Excellent video to teach sewing terms relative to patterns.
Very interesting. I had always wondered about those little holes.
Right!!! I thought that was interesting to put in there! When the video on right and wrong sides comes out, I have a ninja trick about them in there too!
So good to see you my queen! Keep on being awesome!
Aww thankyou for watching Sarah! Xx
Evelyn Wood thank you for your videos :D
You're most welcome! x
Evelyn Wood you give me the confidence and motivation to continue sewing when I'm having sewing doubts

So informative... Thank YOU!! I love your style and energy.
hi just want to firstly say thankyou so much for your videos. I just stumbled on your channel today and have learnt so much. Clearly presented and enjoyable to watch☺️

Love your vintage kilt broach 😀 Fiona xx
Thanks!! A lucky little find!!
Thank you
Thank uou it was very useful
Thank you for the information.your dressmaking methods are very stylish.
Thanks for watching Udaya!
Can you please make a video on how to make a pattern for dress for beginner? I love your videos. Thanks in advanced
Thank for the suggestion! Learning to make a dress pattern would require a lot more depth than I could ever put into a youtube video though! Starting with making alterations to an existing pattern is where you want to start!
Really is very good, it would be better if what you are saying is English subtitled.
Question here ☝️ if you ends up with scrap with no salvage left visible and say on the next day, you decide to use this scrap for a piece but you need it on the grainline, how would you remember/know which one is which ?
I have same question. If your piece of fabric has had the selvage removed, how can you tell which is the right way up
@@tw6553 Hope this tip helps: The selvedge/selvege that is the lengthwise grain will have a tight pull to it. The crosswise grain will go across the body - that's how I remember it.

Hi Mrs Wood. I just happen to watch your videos. This one is quite interesting and helpful. But how would you identify the grain of a cut piece of fabric. Thank you
Okay, so what is the grainline, I think you called it, that you said we 'needed' to know before we talked about bias?
How do I find the selvage direction on a fabric scrap?
I picked out this nice rib knit fabric that is kinda like a very long noodle. Its not a square piece and the only edges are at the top of it. and then all the way at the other end at the bottom. Would those technically be the Selvedge?
i love i love i love u thank you
I have asked this before, please tell me the brand of lipstick you wear as it looks to have a unique shine.
Hi! can I cut the waistband for a denim skirt paralel to the selvage? Will it affect the final result? Thanks!
Is the opposite edge considered a selvage also, reliable to use as a straight edge?
Evelyn you're so flawless ..... i wish i have ur skin ahahahha
HA HA Just good skin care and stay out of the sun! X
But how would you find this on a second hand fabric. Or a repurposing
One comment, you have beautiful skin!
I’m confused about the right side I should embroider on?
could you please explain that point?
Hi Evelyn, I know about this selvage, but when I look at patterns the fabric layout runs the other way, is this also selvage?
Hi Evelyn, I am making a window valence. I want to cut a strip of fabric from one edge of the Selvage to the other. I do not want to trim the Selvage but instead sew it and have it be part of the side seams. Can I do this? Just wondering.
Hi Evelyn, long time follower and love your videos! I was just wondering, do you buy vintage clothing lots?
Hi Kelly thanks for watching! Not generally as I don't sell anymore. I am only buying vintage for myself now!
Evelyn Wood well once I make my way through this estate I will send you some pics of anything fantastic I come across
Sound great!! I always love fantastic vintage!!

Thank you so much.

I. Need advice. You can expddt
Does fabric only have 1 salvage? how about the other end of the fabric? I'm new at sewing.
She said there are 2 in the 2nd video explaining what a grainline is: ua-cam.com/video/xmkkfsYfYko/v-deo.html
