Orange sticks are an indispensable tool for a gentle and beautiful manicure. But the possibilities of this beauty accessory, in fact, much wider and go far beyond the beauty salon.
It turns out, an orange stick is an excellent sewing assistant on a sewing machine and overlock. How? Everything is very simple! The orange stick has two different cuts, one pointed, like a toothpick or flat cut on both sides, and from the other end - a mounted slice, but only on the one hand. That's just the last most often used during a manicure. And it is this bellowed one-sided slice that found his application and in sewing, as an assistant, of course.
Side with a beveled slice flat and smooth. She easily falls under the lowered paw in those places where it is impossible to get a finger. Previously, for such purposes, I used a conventional needle, a narrow metal line and even scissors, but there is a high probability of tissue damage, for example, the formation of hooks. Now I use an orange wand.
This not a sewing "gadget" is a great assistant:
✂ When stepping out grooved parts - during sewing a thick assembly can be frozen under his paw, overlapping seam, forming subsequently ugly irregularities. It is easy to avoid this with an orange stick.
Side with a beveled slice, strain folding, pre-stopping the sewing machine. At the same time raising the paw.
Similarly, an orange wand can also be used while working on overlock;
✂ Sewing models with folds;
✂ decorating the product with sewing applications;
✂ Adjusting the various elements of the decor around the edge - in this case, using an orange stick, it is easy to control the displacement of the parts and correct them when necessary; ✂ and even to accurately extract the portno pins from the fabric - during the steps of parts when the line approached the place with the port Pin, stop the machine / overlock, you do not need to lift the paw, carefully picker the head pin head with an orange stick and remove it from the fabric.
