Hi, I would like to order for the sewing machine.
You do not know how willing I am to embarrass myself to get this sewing machine. So, this is me, dancing in a bear suit.
[Music playing]
Yes, I am the rat and I design clothes.
[Music playing]
Why me? If only I had a sewing machine! Help me make clothes.
Male: Hey, everyone! So, throughout the week we have been showing you some of our favorite entries from the most recent Janome serger and sewing machine contest. Well, the votes have been tallied and the results are in.
Female: First step, the winner of the Janome magnolia serger. The deal to win serger was to send in your best DIY video tutorial. Well, we received a ton of great lessons. But the winning entry was sent in by Georgeanna Hall all the way from Korea. And it was so good that we decided to use it for this week’s lesson.
Giorgana: Hey, ThreadBnager this is Georgeanna. This my tutorial for the Janome serger contest. I am going to show you how to make this kind of shirt. To make this shirt, you need any kind of long-sleeved shirt, and you need one swirl coat. The swirl coat is for the cuffs and the collar.
Remove any pockets or buttons. Cut the button off your coat around the pockets. We will not need pockets or flaps. Then cut off the sleeves. On your shirt, cut each sleeve to three quarter length. Take the bottom of your coat and line it up with the collar of your shirt. You can start at the left side if you want or the right side. We will sew all along this edge here. After you choose which side you will start with, put all your pins in. Here we go. Fold the excess over so you can cut it.
Now, fold over your rolled edge twice and pin it, so you can make a nice, smooth edge. First sew this edge and then all around the collar. Now, take the shirt and flip the collar up. We will sew around again to make the seam flat. Pin that seam edge down all around the collar. After you finish pinning, go over to your sewing machine. Cut it off four to five inches starting at the shoulder from both sleeves. Discard the cuffs. Fold the cut edge in and then pin it. We are going to hem this later. From the hemmed edge, cut about three and a half inches. Do this for both pieces. Find the inside seam on the shirt’s sleeve. Turn the new cuffs inside out. Line up the inside seam on the shirt’s sleeve with the seam on your cuff. Pin it so we can sew. Right sides touch, wrong sides are out. We have sewn the cuff on. Now, pull it right, side out and pin along the edge. We are going to sew that seam edge down.
Remember to do this for both of your cuffs. It is all pinned. Now let us take it over to the sewing machine. Be careful. It is kind of tight.
Now, for some bling buttons! Put your arm on the sleeve to see where the button should go. Use a pin and sew it in place.
Now, check out your ragged new shirt.

Male: We will return for the winner of the Janome sewing machine. Stick around.

McConaughey surfer. 37 cities in 55 weeks. I got a lot of friends. No itinerary. Without my phone, I will be out of luck. Most cell companies promise great coverage but T-mobile proved it to me on their website before I signed up. You can even see your signal strength street by street, or in my case, couch by couch. When it comes to my coverage, T-mobile works great!
Let T-mobile prove your signal strength in all the places that matter to you.
Male: All right. So, when Janome started sponsoring Thread Banger, the last thing we thought was that they are going to make us our very own sewing machine. Well, that is exactly what happened and exactly what we are giving away to one lucky thread head or should I say two.
Female: Role the winning clip!

Desperately Seeking a Sewing Machine
By Zachary Hutchinson and Kearsten Hall
Once up on a time, in a forest, frolicked two children.
One was named Kearsten. The other one Zach.
The children happend to love to make and alter clothes.
We are so DIY.
They had made so many clothes.
We have made these.
Alas.
They lacked a sewing machine, and hand stitching took a very long time.
Also it had faults.
And so they ask…
Help us.
The End.
Female: A huge congrats to Zach and Kearsten for winning the new ThreadBanger TB30 Janome sewing machine. What better is to give one sewing machine over the two DIYers. That thing is going to be seeing a lot of action.
Male: And due to your overwhelming response to the video aired earlier this week, we are going to be hooking them up with a brand new Janome TB12 sewing machine. Congratulations! Here we go.
Female: If you did not win the sewing machine this time around, do not worry, there is going to be more giveaways to come.
Male: But if you cannot wait one minute more, head on over the ThreadBanger and pick yourself up one of these awesome sewing machines.
Female: Thanks everyone for the incredible entries, and we will see you next week.
