We gave Nolan a Kodak Zi6 for graduation. It is a very compact video camera. I’ve been eying it and finally snagged it today to try to do a video showing how to machine blanket stitch raw edge applique. It is a really cool little camera, but I’m struggling with getting the focus exactly right looking at the presser foot of a sewing machine. I can zoom in regular mode and it isn’t perfectly focused and the micro focus wants to be closer than I can set the camera and still sew. I need to play more, but for now here is a 5 minute video on stitching machine blanket stitch around applique pieces.

Wow – thanks for doing that – I completely forgot I had a mirror image on my machine! I love doing the blanket stitch by machine. I can’t believe you were able to do that, so close-up. That was great!
I’ve been looking all over for how to do this. Thank you so much for the video!
Thanks your video really helped me!!
