With a sewing machine, you can [[Sewing|sew]] different [[fabrics]] to each other. This is especially useful for making/changing clothes, bags, curtains or similar things.

Jakobmiksch:

Sewing can be done by hand or with a [[Sewing Machine|sewing machine]]. We began to enable this aspect of making with a small [[needlework]] corner in July 2021.

== Materials ==
* [[Material:Fabric|fabric]]: (small) scrap pieces are good for practice (e.g. stuffed animals)
* [[Material:Thread|thread]]: Also see "[[haberdashery]]" for small sewing tools and parts (''DE: Kurzwaren'').
== Things to Consider for all Sewing Machines ==
=== Before Sewing ===
Please make sure you know how to use the machine you are sitting in front of. Take a few minutes to understand how the thread is being inserted and have a look at the respective manual.

=== After Sewing ===
Unplug the machine when you have a larger break or are done sewing.

When you are done with sewing for the day clean the machine to get rid of lint (DE: Fussel).
To do so, use a brush and clean the needle plate. Also take out the bobbin (DE: Spule) of the lower thread and use the brush to get rid of lint.

Depending on the machine you need to clean and oil the machine at different parts more or less regularly. Please have a look at the manual of the sewing machine.

Last but not least put a piece of scrap fabric on the needle plate, insert the needle and put down the pressure foot.

Follow these simple tips and the machine will keep on running as smoothly as it is supposed to!

== Inspiration ==
This [https://media.ccc.de/v/MRMCD16-7600-textilklinik talk on how to repair or modify your clothing] might give some inspiration.

Zippers are rows of interlocking teeth, usually made from nylon or a [[metal]], that are aligned to stick together by a sliding handle. The teeth are usually sown onto a [[fabric]] base and [http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Fix-Separated-Nylon-Zipper-Teeth/ can be sewn back on] if that connection breaks.

}}
There is a whole bunch of different kinds of fabric like linen, silk or velvet. Depending on the type of fabric you are using, you'll need [[Material:Thread|thread]] and needles of different thickness.

== Cutting ==
Fabric is usually cut with fabric scissors or special cutting wheels (which we don't have yet).

Technically, a [[Laser Cutter|laser cutter]] would also work but is only worth the effort if you want very delicate patterns.

== Joining ==
Besides by [[sewing]], you can also glue fabric together using a special textile glue.

For non-permanent connections, try buttons, [[zippers]] or hook and loop fasteners.

== Marking ==
[[Embroidery]] is a very nice way of adding custom patterns or labeling to fabric.

You can also print things on fabric, e.g. on linen shopping bags. There are different techniques of printing, one prominent easy example being the potato print.

Many fabrics can also be engraved with a [[Laser Cutter|laser cutter]], but we have not tried this ourselves yet and you should keep in mind that ''laser engraving is basically burning'' which may weaken your piece.

=== Molton ===
Molton (or "Duvetyne") is a heavy, usually black fabric used commonly in event settings.

Something special about Molton is that you don't need to cut it - it will rip easily in both strand directions!

Material:Thread

2026-06-17T20:06:25Z

Jakobmiksch:

Thread is a very thin kind of yarn that is most commonly used for [[:Category:Sewing|sewing]]. There are different kinds of thread like [[Material:Thread#Sewing Thread|sewing thread]], [[Material:Thread#Embroidery Thread|embroidery thread]] and basting cotton (DE: Heftgarn) depending on the purpose.

''The term '''thread''' also refers to the "twist" of fasteners like [[screws]], [[nuts]] and of course [[Threaded Rods|threaded rods]] that can be cut with [[Taps and Dies|taps and dies]].''

== Sewing Thread ==

Most spools have a number (e.g. 100) written on them which specifies their properties. A quick online search for the manufacturer and number will give you extensive property charts [http://www.amann.com/produkte/sabac/ like this one] which will help you pick the proper needle size.

Check out Wikipedia's [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%A4hgarn#Verwendung_der_Standard-N.C3.A4hgarne list of common uses (DE)] for standard thread variants!
