From experienced tailors to beginners, we have something for everyone. It’s time to take your sewing game to the next level with these cool and unique gadgets. Get ready to unlock your full potential and bring your wildest sewing dreams to life. Remember, the only limit is your imagination!
1. Water-soluble thread for swathing
With this magical thread, you don’t have to unstitch the broomstick. After washing the finished product, the thread will simply disappear. We checked: we dipped the thread in a glass of water – it melted before our eyes. Definitely worth a try.
2. Bracelet with magnetic plate
Unlike disappearing markers, washable markers stay put until you’re ready to remove them. This means you won’t have to worry about constantly renewing your markings and can focus on the work ahead. With this helpful marker, you can take on projects that span multiple days and stay confident that your markings will remain intact until you’re ready to wash them away.
3. Roller knife
People who love patchwork sewing are familiar with a tool called a roller knife. This knife is useful for cutting small pieces of fabric and is especially liked by seamstresses because it can cut thin and slippery fabrics smoothly without leaving any frayed edges.
4. The notch pincer
Did you know that the knife notches are perfect for making precise and even notches on templates that won’t rub off or disappear? The only thing to keep in mind is to be careful when placing the notch to avoid tearing the fabric accidentally. With the knife notches, your projects will look amazing and professional.
5. Magnetic limiter for straight stitches
A useful gadget for beginners. Not everyone knows how to make the stitching straight right away: it can move off and severely ruin the product. The magnetic stop will not let the stitching move. It can also be set to the width of the allowance. But if your sewing machine with digital control – such a gadget will not work.
