Sewing

Pollack Fabric has a fabric that they call silk mohair - no other special name for it. It is used as a heavy duty upholstery fabric for furniture. The fabric they sell is made in the Netherlands.

The parts list on the Sears website on the page titled "Top Cover/Handle" is dated 10/03. That is the only reference I have found so far.

the smaller the stitches, the less likely it would come apart.. think about when you baste something.. the long stitches can easily be pulled out

Yes. the needle uses reciprocting motion

What does the tension disc do on the sewing machine

The bobbin is wound in the bobbin case. You open up the slide plate and push the little lever with the bull's eye on it all the way to the left. Then you thread the needle with the thread you want on the bobbin, then pull a few inches and wrap the needle thread around the knurled knob that holds the foot onto the shaft (to keep it from slipping.) Then you push down on the foot pedal and the bobbin fills from the needle thread. Don't overfill the bobbin or it won't wind out properly.

An antonym is a word which has the opposite meaning to another word. Examples would be: "stop" is the antonym for "go," "left" would be the antonym for "right," "black" would be an antonym for "white."

Crocheting is a process of making fabrics or needlework. There is no antonym (opposite) word for "crochet," unless you are talking about the word commonly used when you are pulling out crochet stitches. The word for when you are pulling out crochet stitches would be "frogging" (rippit, rippit, rippit--get it? the sound and process of pulling the stitches out). If you remove knitted stitches, that is referred to as "tink-ing" which is "k-n-i-t" spelled backwards (you are "removing" stitches, therefore, you are going backwards).

Nonwoven fabrics are broadly defined as sheet or web structures bonded together by entangling fiber or filaments (and by perforating films) mechanically, thermally or chemically. They are flat, porous sheets that are made directly from separate fibers or from molten plastic or plastic film. They are not made by weaving or knitting and do not require converting the fibers to yarn.

Nonwoven fabrics are engineered fabrics that may be a limited life, single-use fabric or a very durable fabric. Nonwoven fabrics provide specific functions such as absorbency, liquid repellency, resilience, stretch, softness, strength, flame retardancy, washability, cushioning, filtering, bacterial barrier and sterility. These properties are often combined to create fabrics suited for specific jobs, while achieving a good balance between product use-life and cost. They can mimic the appearance, texture and strength of a woven fabric and can be as bulky as the thickest paddings. In combination with other materials they provide a spectrum of products with diverse properties, and are used alone or as components of apparel, home furnishings, health care, engineering, industrial and consumer goods.

If you don't the moving parts will start to rub against each other. HTey may eventually seize or wear out.

if you were an expert

If you want to make the butterfly stitch real bad, I bet you've already googled up some tutorial sites, but they just don't work out. It's actually simpler than you can imagine. All you have to do is make loops into loops, just like the beginning of the tutorials. Then just keep on adding loops and loops inside them, but be careful, a common mistake (just like the kind I made when I'm doing this stitch) is that you have to do everything in a pattern. That means if you overlap and make a loop from under the loop, then you have to keep on doing that when you make other loops otherwise you won't have a pattern. sure if you understand the tutorials you can follow along that. but be careful not to make a mistake or you'll have to start all over!

Often, if you match the weight of the fabric to the trim it will not pucker. If either material is stretchy, you need to be careful that it is not stretched at all as you sew. If these two things do not work, use an interfacing or stabilizer to keep the materials from puckering.

If you have any questions about where to purchase these items, let me know!

Well, duvets/comforters are usually batted(stuffed) w/ goose down to make it fluffy and comfortable. Duvet covers are made of different materials, nylon, polyester though usually cottons such as Egyptian with varying thread counts. Just as clothes are comprised of different materials; so are duvet covers.

Bonding fabric is a non woven fabric, the fibre in which makes the fabric, are held together by a bonding material. This may be an adhesive or a bonding fibre with a low melting point. Alternatively, the material may possibly, will be, held together by stitching! hope this is a good answer.

Accidents can be prevented in sewing by knowing what you are doing, being familiar with your tools, and paying attention to what you are doing. Although many sharp tools are used in sewing, there is no reason that accidents cannot be avoided.

It could be as big as you want it to be, but it is usually about a half and inch wide all the way around.

The standard seam allowance is 5/8 inch.

Trapunto is a technique of adding extra dimension to quilting and applique by stuffing certain areas of the quilt. An additional layer of batting may be used or yarn may be threaded into channels of quilting for a raised look.

It is possible to buy fabric paintings form e.g. nazia fabric painting or crafts villa. It is more popular to paint fabrics yourself. Colors for such activities can be bought from craft stores such as Michael's.

The presser foot grabs the fabric and pulls it through.
