I was just doing two small projects and discovered they come out better with using more pins, I tend to underestimate how many I use. Sometimes just dont want to pull them out. Nice end projects. :lol:

I find that to be true often. And sometimes I'm lazy and don't use enough....
|
I have tried to get away without using pins when sewing some seams and sometimes that decision comes back to bite me in the you know where.
|
I've heard that some people sew through pins (machine sewing) but when I learned to sew that was a huge no-no. Of course I tried it anyway and broke many needles. Is it just certain machines you can do it with??
Back to the topic.......... I agree with MamaBear :D I have big bite marks :D:D |
Sue...you can sew over pins on vintage machines! ;)
|
i sew over pins all the time and don't use vintage machines.
ok. sometimes i hit a pin and regret it. but mostly ... no problems. |
I lots of pin. I'm a pin sorta gal.
|
I pin too, when piecing, but not sewing strips together. On borders and sashing, looks like a porciupine is living on my machine!

Back to the topic.......... I agree with MamaBear :D I have big bite marks :D:D I do actually sew over pins, I try to pull them out prior to getting to the needle. But I have an old Work Horse all Metal 930 Bernina, no computer. |
I am lazy and hate taking the time to put pins in and then take them out :oops:
