Thanks to the help from my wife and her sewing stuff, I completed my first sewing project. Used some canvas she had left over and some tubular webbing I had laying around. I'm happy with how it turned out considering multiple changes were made as we went.
I'm hoping to make my own moveable aider next and had a few newbie questions.
1) I used a denim needle to do this project and it seemed to work, at one point going through 4 layers of canvas and 2 layers of the tubular webbing at once. I'm assuming this will work fine for the webbing aiders?
2) Will the upholstery thread I used for this also be strong enough for an aider if using the correct stitch patterns?
3) Last one, just curious about the Bernina Sport 801. It seemed to handle this project fine, some issues probably due more to operator error. Wondering if anyone knows if this is a decent set up for this type of work?
I'm new to this and learning what I can, but theres a lot of info to digest. I'm currently reading about stitch patterns for webbing and I'll be sure to test the hell out of any aider I do make. Thanks in advance for any info!
