    Finally! I have been waiting for someone to give the very basics on sewing papers. You are wonderful for this. I feel like everyone else assumes I know what I’m doing just because I own a machine! Well, I don’t! I only took a couple classes years back. I can’t wait to get started now. ❤

    Oh Gi this was so great. I just love the "no glue" who knew? You have made this sew so simple. My favorite and how I will do them from now on is the tag with coffee died backing and trim close "after" sewing, just brilliant. Thanks sew much, hugs and stay well.

    Thank you for creating this very informative video! I been searching for something like this before I tried sewing paper on my machine. I was afraid of messing up my sewing machine. What was out wasn’t very instructive.
    I love Brother sewing machines. I had one and gave away a number of years ago because I stopped sewing. During CoVid, I purchased another Brother machine to make masks and some baby quilts but has been sitting collecting dust the last year or two. I have wanted to try sewing on paper and now, after this video, I realize I can use it 😊just fine for paper.

    Thank you again for your time, and videos. Blessings 🤗🌹

    I have been searching for months for a good video on this. Every sewing video talks about fabric (understandably) and the same “rules” don’t apply to paper. Tension and stitch length have been an issue for me. Also needle size. Thanks so much for this!

    I have also been hesitant to sew on paper.
    I am thinking that if I use a needle only for paper and other ones only for fabric, I may still be able to use my machine for both?!
    For now at least.
    I have a Bernina 1000 from late 80’s and love it, do some maintenance once in a while and it is working great still.

    Me and sewing machines don’t get along 😂. I have a very cheap one, and every time I start to sew, I have to hold on to both of the threads. If I’m not holding onto them taunt, they just scramble up under the needle. Also, the speed is too fast, even at the lowest speed. So it makes it hard to stop at the right place to turn the paper. Guess I need to get a better one! Thanks for the wonderful tutorial! Hugs 🤗❤️

    My thread is for sewing fabric and embroidery not paper. I use glue, glitter glue, glossy accents and waxed pigments to enhance papers, not thread.
