TIPS FOR BETTER COVERSTITCHING
■ Make sure the needles sit firmly in the slot
■ Try a larger needle if the fabric and the machine can handle it
■ Replace used needles with fresh ones
■ Check the threading
■ Flatten out bumpy surfaces
■Increase stitch length and differential feed when sewing over bulky seams
■ Sometimes increasing the stitch length, in general, can help too. I’ve found that if I go below 2 on my coverstitch machine it’s much more likely to start skipping stitches.
■ Use a wash-away stabiliser or fusible interfacing to help the stitching form better
■ Never pull the fabric
■ Experiment with the presser foot pressure
■ Use quality thread and needles

I don’t have a cover stitch machine, but I watched this to support your channel anyway! I’m glad to see you back.
Great to see a new video from you, Johanna. I have all your books & I highly recommend them to everyone.
I like to always test on scraps before I start my cover stitching! It has saved me from unpicking many times!
Great to see you back on UA-cam, Johanna. I’ve missed your informative videos.
...thanks for the tips, Johanna...my coverstitch is the first machine that has really been a challenge for me to master...I appreciate every tip & trick...great to see you!
You are back. You were very missed!! Love this video!
Have a Brother Coverstitch... very temperamental and too much, just gave in and got myself a BabyLock Ovation, combined serger/coverstitch, expensive true but SOOO worth it, not to mention, I can use all 8 spools simultaneously, blew my mind!
Me too! Love my Ovation!
I had the same issues with the Janome. Now have a Babylock Gloria. Worth saving up for.
@@janeybwells2810 Me too with a Janome combination serger/coverstitch machine. I purchased a gently used Babylock Ovation (U.S. name) and it took care of many of my serging issues. Great machine!
I wanted to thank you for your last video on your favorite sewing tools. After watching it, I decided to purchase the orange colored ‘hump-jumper’. One for me and the other for a friend. Joann Fabrics has them on sale for nearly half of what Walmart is selling them for. Of course, with you not living in the USA you may not shop at these stores, but I thought that others may want to find this tool. Thanks again! Today’s video will be very helpful also. Each day I may be using a different machine, it’s always great to expand my knowledge! ❤
I have your book. You have always been a help using this machine.
Thank you. Very helpful .
Love your videos, I'm saving up for a coverstitch and will be getting your book then
Great tips.
Thanks you so much I appreciate your time.
Thank you! I just got my first cover stitch machine and ..... it's been challenging. I found your tips were so helpful I just ordered your book!
I have yet to try the cover stitch functions on my Baby Lock Triumph, but I think ALL of your tips will help me.
I am going to a Coverstitch Basics class at the dealer in Mon., Oct. 4.
Nice to see you on UA-cam again, Johanna!
I took that type of class at my BL dealer-it helped demystify cover stitching and chain stitching.
I've always found that thin bamboo ou rayon jersey needs some wash away Wonder Tape to sew properly. It's just too unruly to sew by itself!
Nice! Your videos should be seen by more watchers. May I repost your channel without changing anything on the clean platform named Ganjing World? Thank you!
Hi Johanna where did you get your hump jumper please ?
The link to her favorite sewing tools is in the description. You can get them on Amazon, or any sewing supply store, usually. It’s a common item. I’ve also used cardboard.
Where is the description section?
Click on the little triangle arrow to the right to open the description section 🙂
Does your book have help with Coverstitching with elastic?
I cant even get mine to work 😂
