    I'm Indigenous Australian and I've been looking at video's for most of the afternoon on how to personalise my denim jacket with our material that I have here and now from watching your idea I'll do something similar, thank you, your jacket looks really great 👍🏽 🥰

    This ifs exactly what I want to do. This method allows me to sew it and not permanently glue the fabric because I want to be able to switch up my fabric design if I choose to. Straight to the point and simple.❤

    ❤ I have some clothes from my mom who passed away in 2021 and I didn't know what to do with it. It's not my style and I didn't want to give them away but I also felt it should not be sitting in a cupboard wasting away and this is such a great idea thank you so much can't wait to get started thanks for the idea ❤❤❤❤ sending you tons of love from South Africa 🇿🇦

    Wow! You made that so simple, with clear instructions! My niece's birthday is this week and I bought a denim jacket to do this with.
    What if I don't have the thin foot piece that you have?
    And what stitch do you use? Straight?
    Thank you so much! 💓

      If you don’t have a narrow foot just use what you have and shift your needle as far to the right as possible . Thanks for watching and subscribing. ☺️

      Yes you can! If your fabric is thin and needs the extra support.

    I’d really like to know about your machine! I have a juki - love it - in my arsenal of machines, but I’m intrigued by the industrial.

    • @liveloverisa
      @liveloverisa  3 роки тому +1

      Janna , I love my Industrial. I use it more than my other machines. The way it was explained to me is that the home machines are good for making on average 1 dress a week, and the industrial is made for all day everyday use. I’ve had this for 11 - 12 years and never had a problem.

    Question: have you ever used heat n’ bond lite to secure the fabric to the denim to eliminate slippage?

      @@patsyspencer4746 I don’t remember! Lol! I did upcycle a denim jacket with several cotton fabric Dia de Los Muertos print “patches” of fabric and I think I used HnB Lite, but I don’t remember for sure. I sold the jacket to a friend in another state so I can’t check to see what I did. I know I also stitched around the edges. I do use HnB Lite for other fabric appliqué, including a recent one wear the fabric for a Christmas banner and all the appliqués are soft wool - including some hand dyed wools that were all a part of a kit. The LITE version of HnB is important since it will be finished with stitching.

    You mentioned that you've done other items....a) I would love to see your beautiful creativiness b)have you ever done a something like a winter jacket where it is more boxy, bulky and not really have any distinct panels (I think that is what the sections are called) that the jean jacket? I have the ugliest winter jacket but the warmest!!! I would love to not look like a gray blob! Thanks! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and love!

      Sarah thank you for your kind words … I do have an Instagram page … line below. I have done a long jacket that had no panels but I don’t know if there are any pics of that. I think that would be nice to elevate you gray jacket and you can be very creative are do abstract shapes .
