  • In this video Miss Sew shows 5 different methods to create a thread chain.
    Thread chains can be used for delicate button loops or belt loops. This technique can also be used to create a swing tack or French tack to attach a lining to the outer layer of a garment, often seen in dresses and skirts to stop a lining from riding up or moving inside the garment when wearing.

    This is fantastic! Your instructions are so clear, and I'm no longer imteminated on making the button loop. Bless you for sharing.

    Lovely! And a very superior way of starting without using an ugly knot somewhere! Thank you.

    You need to make a hand sewing series, ma'am. You are the best I've seen for making the tutorial for this and you even got three different methods. Your quality is top notch; clear camera and viewing, clear voice and instructions, good and valid alternatives for methods. I subscribed instantly.

    For the first method I simply use a tiny crochet hook to make the chain instead of my fingers, I find it much easier that way. Thank you for a great video, it has inspired me to begin using loops for buttons, belts and hooks much more often.

      I’m so pleased the video has given you inspiration! ☺️
      The first method can be done with a crochet hook. I sometimes do the same thing 😊

    I’ve made loops using my overlocker with the thread chains you get from the rolled hem stitches. They’re great if you can be bothered to set it up; but I try to remember to do a few, if I’m ever in rolled hem mode! :)

    New at sewing. Your sewing techniques are by far the most comprehensive and easy to follow. Your tutorials are excellent.

    I do bridal alterations and I've always used the blanket stitch method for my thread loops, but I just tried your first method and it was so much faster! It's so cool to see all of the different ways they can be made.

    This is a brilliant video, thank you so much! My daughter bought a pre-loved vintage floral waistcoat with button and loop fastening, missing a button and all the loops. I feel confident now to sew new ones for her. Thanks again ❤️

    That method to just use the chain from the overlocker looks too good to be true, so easy. But I can't figure out how you would secure it in the proper place, without it looking really sloppy.

    • @HouseofMissSew
      @HouseofMissSew  2 роки тому +1

      The best way to secure is with a knot. It’s not the tidiest finish but it can work if you’re can hide the knots on the inside of the fabric. It’s probably best used when you’re using a thread chain or ‘swing tack’ to keep a lining in place inside a skirt or dress.

      @@HouseofMissSew Thanks for your reply! The other methods you demonstrate are so good that I might not bother with the overlocker readymade thread chain. After all, it is kinda fun to watch the chain taking shape as you go!
