Sewing

put in into some white dye

Just about anything you can imagine might be used for textiles, from popular fibers like wool, silk and cotton to more exotic ones like bamboo, corn, milk, sea weed, soy, crab shells, wood, camel, buffalo, and even pet hair.

It is a small tool used to break or "unpick" a sewing stitch, sometimes referred to as a seam ripper

Either:

'so' a conjuction or adverb

'sow' a verb meaning to spread seed for planting

Fabrics such as corduroy or velvet are napped. The color will look different when turned in different directions. You have to be able to lay all pattern pieces going the same direction or your garment will look as though it were made of different fabrics.

You would need to measure the area to be stitched in order to know the length of time it would take to stitch that area.

The dye uptake of Terylene (TCI) subjected to dry and live-steam heat can be characterised by a constant defined as the uptake divided by the square root of time (A/t), as in equations for diffusion. This constant is found to decrease to a minimum with increase in temperature of dry heating and then to increase to a value greater than that for the unheated yarn at high temperatures of preheating. Steam preheating also affects the constant and, at the higher temperatures of steam heating, shows similar tendencies to those found for dry heat but to a less extent. These results were obtained under conditions that allow free shrinkage during dyeing. However, if dyeing is carried out with the material under tension, although the general tendency is the same, the dye-uptake constant is greater than that for the corresponding samples dyed in the absence of tension and is greater than that of the unheated yarn for most of the samples. Measurement of parameters indicative of structural changes in fibres, e.g. moisture regain, density, X-ray orientation and X-ray lateral order, shows that these variations in dyeing properties cannot be explained on the basis of a fringe-micellar network theory of structure. An explanation is advanced which postulates a structure with rod-like morphological units separated by narrow voids, the size, amount and tortuosity of which govern the accessibility of the dye.

Liquid Starch A garment can be starched during ironing by damping it with a starch solution and then ironing the garment dry. Starch can be bought in ready to use liquid or a dry form that is added to water. I have even made my own liquid by soaking a clean chopped potato in water and then using the water which has absorbed some of the potato starch, but this gives variable results and should be tested on a non-precious item first. :-) Starched clothing gets less stiff as it flexes during wear, and perspiration softens the starching. Starching needs to be redone after each wash.

During construction (sewing etc) a garment can have interfacing or additional layers of fabric added to areas that require stiffening. These can be adhesive iron-on interfacing or tack stitched in place. Typical locations that have stiffening are collars, lapels, cuffs and waistbands. Cheap clothing often has the stiffening omitted and doesn't sit neatly when worn.

The value of antique foot pedal sewing machines can depend on how antique they are and their condition: Ones in perfect working order from the 1700's go for about 1200 because they're aren't that many.

how much would an 1960 singer sawing machine sell for

Twill is fabric that has a diagonal pattern. It is actually woven in such a way as to create diagonal "ribs" in the fabric itself (not just colored diagonal lines). Think of cordoroy - that is a fabric with a vertical (up and down) pattern woven into it. Twill is diagonal weaving. If a twill fabric has extra "give" so that it can expand (stretch), it is a stretch twill.

Stretch twill often refers to the fabric having a small percentage of lycra/spandex in it, usually 2-4%.

To purchase fabric for a comforter, the amount you need depends on the width you choose. You will find the information you need on the back of the pattern you purchase at the fabric store. You can get some excellent advice from the store clerk to help you choose your fabric.

well it depends on what sort of sewing machine it is it should say on the packaging of the sewing machine.

This small , short bladed tool is used for clipping threads and ripping seams.

A pioneer dressmaker would make clothing for people including dresses for women. There are dressmakers who make pioneer clothing for reenactments and fairs. They cut the patterns out of material and sew them into outfits.

Stay Stitching

From what I can tell, fabric is usually converted by using a factor of 18.

So, 1 yard of fabric = 18 square feet of fabric.

Note that this rule ONLY applies to fabric. For almost all other materials (carpet, tile, wallpaper, etc) you would use SQUARE yards and square feet, and this uses a factor of 9 (ie. 9 sqft =1 sqyd).

Hope this helps.

Between $75 and $90 according to previous sales of the same model. As with any electronic item when newer models come out each year the older one's value drop more and more.

Vendo was a major manufacturer of soda and candy machines. The Vendo model A23B5K Coca Cola machines are extremely collectable, selling for around 2,500 to 3,200 dollars, depending on condition.

Any stitch, as the chain stitch, that uses loops in the pattern or process of working
