That’s fabulous. It’s a shame that the Brother attachment is so expensive. I might have to look around for another option but I love the results you got.
This is wonderful, thank you sew much!
Brilliant, must try this on mine
Thanks so much. I'd wondered if something like this would work. July 2023 in Dallas and it's been a heat wave all month. Stay comfortable, regardless the season.
I purchased this binder off eBay a couple of years ago go but I couldn’t figure out the placement. Thank you for taking the time to show us how to use this bias binder!
Let me know if it works out for you!
@@1922project I ordered another one off of ebay that is 3 fold, I will let you know how it goes. I have a Bernette b42 funlock that I just got so cant wait to use this attachment!
Thanks for the information... This video is extremely valuable for all of us who want to improve our details in sewing and also want to save time and money. 😊
Thank you so much for watching!
Super helpful video! Thank you so much!!!! 🌹🌹🌹
I don’t have a cover stitch but this is nice to know what you can do with it if I do get one someday!! Great hack/ fix to an expensive accessory!!
Thanks Mary! I don’t use it every day but oh my goodness I’m glad I have it!!
You helped me so much. Thank you
Very helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Excelente tutorial 👍 eres muy ingeniosa!
Saludos desde 🇨🇷
I don't have this machine, but I would think I could trace around the binder on the machine and get exact placement for the next project! Thanks, learned a lot!
Thanks so much for watching!
Me encantó tu vídeo. De esta forma es más económica
Trace it’s shape on the cv with a permanent marker to place it always on the same position. At least the corners
What foot is used with the binder attachment? Was there a special foot that is required? Thank you for your help.
It’s just the foot that came with the machine! Nothing special!
I got the generic on ebay, you want to get what is called top clean bottom raw binder in the 7/16 - 1 1/4. I go t this size which is perfect for baby clothes. I also have a video on using this machine with a generic binder. Brother has a binding foot but you can only get it when you purchase their binder. They will not sell it to you separate from the binder and it is wonderful I show it in my video!! I do have a gentleman who makes the binding foot in 3D so if anyone wants one they are available.
Great video. I just ordered this attachment for my machine. Have you ever experimented with using this attachment for foldover elastic? I think the 10mm would work and I could probably figure out how to feed the foldover in. My concern would be being able to effectively pull on the elastic around curved necklines or armholes when you are so far from the entrance to the feed dogs. At present for foe I do a 2 step process of zig zag on (which is when I vary tension), fold over the elastic, then go to the coverstitch to “topstitch” on. Thanks for sharing.
I haven’t tried it with FOE. Great idea!
Did you ever find the bracket holder for this binder foot? I am not great with masking tape or fun tak.
I would love something that would allow me to attach with screws and slide out of the way. Also thank you SO much for the detail and the time you take with your explanations. You are good at this. Keep going.
That’s so nice of you! Thank you! I never really looked much for something more permanent because I don’t mind the blue tape. I wonder if you couldn’t find some sort of screws at Home Depot that would work 🤔
I did the same with mine but d fabric is running all over the place so I don't get a straight or neat stitch
Hello! I am struggling with settings.. what settings are you using to attach the binding? Hopefully I didn't miss it in the video. Thank you! (stitch length, differential feed, tension)
So, I think it's really going to depend on your fabric but all my dial tension is usually around 5-6 and I didn't make any changes to the differential feed or other dials on the side- just all set as they normally are! Sorry, I'm still learning this machine myself but I hope that helps a little! Just play around and see what works best for the fabric you're using!
I have bought the Janome 2000CPX and everyone seems to be having much loser tension. Mine is coming out lose and missing stitches on the back over seams. Would love to know how you know what the tensions should be. I appreciate it is individual to fabrics and machine.
Which needles are you using? Coverstitch machines usually work best with ELx705 needles, I prefer SUV (slight ballpoint) tip, they are cheaper if you buy in bulk...maybe share an order with someone else so you can have different sizes. I have the same machine as you, do you have the adapter plate to attach the binder? Saves all the hassle with painters tape and the binder goes on 'exactly' in the same position every time.
What are your settings
Is this something you can use on a regular singer sewing machine?
Yes...I've used my binders on the sewing machine, however, it's best to use the shortest foot you have. Have fun!
Thanks for the great video!!! I’m stuck in the yucky Texas weather too! I’m curious how you picked 1922 project for your shop/channel name??
I feel like such a brat complaining! I wouldn’t survive the north at all! So, it’s not all that interesting of a story but the numbers mean something to me (also my house number) and then I’m also really into diy projects around the house. Every time my dad comes over he says “What project are you working on?” So I just added the project. A million times I’ve considered changing it to something more “cutesy” but I can’t do it. This is me.
@@1922project no shame in complaining! I’d never make it either! We didn’t get much in Fort Worrh this time, but it was enough to keep me home for 2 days to sew from my stash! I’m always curious about shop name and yours has always intrigued me! Happy creating!
I have a brother serger and recently bought that same attachment but I can’t get my seams to look like that. Do you have all 4 strings of thread set up or no?
This is a coverstitch rather than a serger! I only have it set up with 3 threads. 4 threads can be used on a coverstitch but I never have tried it.
I'm looking on amazon, but only seem to see double fold attachments. I really like the idea of the kind you are using. Can you link the item please?
This is the one I have! amzn.to/3rqagp5
Don't go off pictures! Read the description to see if it has the one raw edge. I have both kinds and I definitely prefer this one for a neckband. Good luck!
Can you put a link to the presser foot that you are using? Is it a special foot?
Nevermind, I just saw you already answered that in a previous comment. Thanks for the video.
I wonder if you need a transparent feet.
Try to get the screws, I bet you can just call Brother and buy the screws.
