easterbabe:
I suggest you match your needle size to the weight of the sheer fabric ( try a size 9 needle) and for the Jersey fabric, you need to use Jersey needles. I know these are not readily available here though.I'll try and post here more often to share the little I know with other sewing enthusiasists.

We like to contradict/confuse ourselves sha!
"I know these are not readily available here though."
"I suggest you match your needle size to the weight of the sheer fabric ( try a size 9 needle) and for the Jersey fabric, you need to use Jersey needles. "
D poster didn't say u shouldn't match ur needles with your fabric,u missed the part where she mentioned matching needles to fabric actually-she said 'choose ur needles according to ur fabric's heaviness'. from what I understand she suggestd making use of paper when the jersey needle isn't available. We are in naija and some resources are hard to find but I'm thankful for threads like this.

Now I was working on a particular piece
recently and thought to
save snippets of my work, and make mini-
tutorials as I go along. I
work with bias all the time i.e i cut fabrics on
the bias to create
certain silhouettes, i make bias trimmings/
tapes with different
fabrics as against buying (custom bias tapes
add a certain sense of
uniqueness to an outfit as you can make use
of any colour and type
of fabric you are working with :-)
Anyways, to the business of the day! I'll first
introduce what a bias
trimming is before making it with you. A bias
trimming is a narrow
strip of fabric, cut on the bias of a fabric,
although I illustrated this
in the ankara bangle series, I would illustrate
it again here.The bias
is found at 45 degrees to the straight grain of
the fabric, and is also
called the 'cross grain'.
Here I made use of plaid and daviva ankara.
TIPS:
1. you can sew plaid bias strips on ankara
either to finish off edges or as a trimming for
that afro-contemporary look.
2. you can use your bias strips to
make piping, binding seams, finish off edges,
and so on
3. you can use your bias strips to trim
armholes, necklines (take a cue from buba
blouses), baby bibs, ties and loops, trim
placemats and head rests, the list is endless!....

can't seem to upload anymore photos. Would try again later. Have a blessed night people!

don't know what's going on, guess I'l just post the link then: http://www.thatssewnaija..co.uk/2013/03/how-to-make-bias-trimmingtape.html#more
