(Wo)man Vs. Machine
I love hearing his tips, but I'm not really budging much from my prior beliefs. After all, if hand sewing and tailoring was good enough for Dior and Balenciaga, it's good enough for me. But this pro-machine attitude must be rubbing off on me a bit because the last dress I made I sewed entirely by machine--not a single hand stitch went into it! I even sewed the buttons on by machine. (Tip from my sample-maker friend: secure the buttons in place with Scotch tape and then zig zag them onto the garment. It works well, I admit.)
It was a good solution for this particular garment, which needed to be made quickly since it was a practice-run of a design that's going in my book. But for the "real" dress, I'm taking my time a bit more: making bound buttonholes and sewing the buttons on by hand with waxed silk thread, for starters.
I know that my penchant for hand sewing wouldn't fly in a sample workroom, and that's fine with me. There are reasons beyond speed and efficiency that people sew for themselves: to enjoy the process of making something by hand, to learn the craft of fine couture garments, and sometimes just to slow down and do something tactile. When I get preoccupied by speed, I tend to lose some of the pleasure of sewing.
But then it's also nice to have the ability to whip up a dress that's sturdy enough to throw in the wash once a week. Like most things, the solution is probably in the balance: using a melange of hand and machine techniques for each project and assessing each technique as you go along. To be a versatile seamstress, you really do need to have an arsenal of skills ready to go at any given moment.
But I would bet that most people lean one way or another--towards hand sewing or toward doing everything by machine. What do you think? Do you have a preference--or do you swing both ways?

I like the combo of machine and hand. I had no idea that you could sew buttons on by machine! I guess it makes sense but I didn't know ha ha!ReplyDelete
I used a combo of both. I hem by hand for the most part, and I've never sewn on a button by machine. I know it's technically possible, because I've seen how to do it in my manual, but I've never even tried.ReplyDelete

I hand-sew when needed, but prefer to use the machine when possible. If you can talk your sample-sewing friend into a guest column I'd love to hear more tips for using the machine efficiently!ReplyDelete
Mostly machine. I used to do a lot more by hand, but last year I was selling garments and trying to get as much made as possible. And when I looked at the hatchet job some of my cohorts were doing, anchoring waistband facings to zippers by machine, it was hard to resist lowering my own standards to get more made. I'm sorry.ReplyDelete
I use a combination of both, but I am leaning more toward hand stitching these days. I ordered a book from Amazon just over the weekend that teaches couture sewing techniques. I LOVE the look of hand stitching on just about anything. And I love to feel the fabric in my hands.ReplyDelete
Mostly by machine: if I'm making something, I want to be able to throw it in the machine with all my other clothes. It has to be sturdy enough to get through that wash 'n' spin! I do a bit of hand tacking, and sew my buttons on by hand, but that's about it. I have however made a sample quilt (150cm x 150 cm) by hand however. Yes, all of it. I'm stll actually quilting the sucker though! I button quilted it however, so I can use it!ReplyDelete
I'm very much like you: I tend to blend both hand sewing and machine techniques. It depends largely on the project; for items that are for a special occasion or will be sent to the dry cleaners (like some of my wool pencil skirts), I put a lot more time and effort into hand sewn techniques and finishes. Those are my "couture" garments, and the softness and precision I can attain while hand sewing is well worth the extra time and effort it takes.ReplyDelete
For everyday garments, I have no problems taking the machine route! Although nine times out of ten I'll still use some hand sewing (like hems... But I always save my garments that need to be hemmed for doing in the evenings while I'm relaxing. :). I think for me, sewing starts to loose it's pleasure if I skip a process that I enjoy (hand sewing) when I don't need to for time's sake. I think too it largely relies on what sort of machine you have. For instance my older Singers would balk at sewing a button on by machine (if they even could... I'm not sure even the newer "vintage" on can!). While my Kenmore wouldn't have a problem (however it does need to be serviced and is sitting in "time out" until I drop it off at the repair place! :p).
Overall, I think for the home sewist an ability to draw from a variety of techniques is really useful. For some people having the ability to whip out sturdy garments quickly (sewing for children springs to mind) is a must. But it's still worth cultivating some of hand sewing skills as well.

Hi Gertie!,ReplyDelete
Last July for my birthday, I bought a new sewing machine, an Elna 6200. It was a huge upgrade from my Singer I had since 1983. With the new machine, I am definitely doing less hand sewing. New machines have such flexibility with the stitches. But 2 things I always do by hand. Hand picked dress zippers and enclosed linings where you don't want the stitch to show through the front. For me, stitching by hand is a relaxing chill time in the sewing process. So I would never give up hand sewing. on the other hand I'm so astonished of all the feet you can use to achieve a look I can't help ape ing more time on the machine. Shirring is my new kick!
I don't get why hand-sewing and machine-washing should exclude each other. I throw everything into the washing machine, with the exception of steel-boned corsets, which I handwash. Silk, wool, whatever. But I line-dry, I don't even own a dryer. Silk and wool go into the gentle or handwashing cycle with a special laundry agent, no or just a little tumbling (max 500rpm), and then hanged to dry dripping wet. Yes, that also goes for my (hand-hemmed) silk satin ball gown, my silk taffetta evening skirt, my sheep fleece-interlined wool coat and my bras. I haven't ever suffered any losses that way.ReplyDelete
That being said, I use hand-sewing where neccessary, but I do as much as I can by machine, lazy as I am. Neccessity is relative - if a garment includes no topstitching, for example, I will attach the lining by hand, if it has one, and definitely hand-hem to avoid visible stitching. If there is tpstitching, however I'll use the machine for everything. I always hand-baste zippers, too. I feel much safer that way.
I admire your dedication to couture techniques, though, and sometimes wish I could muster quite as much patience.
I would also like to read a guest column by your friend. I bet she could provide a lot of interesting and valuable insight and tips!
Sunday I waxed and ironed my thread for the very first time ever. It wasn't for any big impressive project, I was just fixing a rip in DH's shorts and figured I'd give it a try.ReplyDelete
Best. Hand-sewing. Experience. Ever.
Thread ran like butta. I'm definitely a convert and will probably be more open to hand-sewing in the future.
- Kim A.July 5, 2011 at 8:30 AM
I can't stand hand sewing! I do as little of it as possible. It's just far too time consuming. I'm with your sample-room friend - efficiency is everything!ReplyDelete
p.s. I am so glad I now know how to sew buttons on by machine!
I love that you hand sew a lot. And since reading your blog I've picked up more hand sewing. I used to never hand sew, I was taught to do everything by machine. My Grandmother taught me and she worked in a factory sewing so she did everything by machine.ReplyDelete
I love curling up in the sofa beside my man and do some hand stitching for the final finishing of a garment. However, I love, and are always surprised by, the efficiency of the sewing machine. I could never skip one of the two. I've tried doing it all by machine, but sometimes you just want to give more care to the garment. My last zipper was hand stitched, but the hem was not. That might have had something to do with meeting a deadline, though...ReplyDelete
I don't really enjoy hand-sewing, partially because it hurts (I have carpal tunnel) and partially because it is so slow. I prefer having a new garment to wear over knowing that I used couture techniques. That being said, there are times that I don't mind hand sewing because it gives me more control. I have to admit that hand-basting the silk organza around the neckline of the Crepe (at your suggestion) was quite satisfying. But I still prefer the machine. I admire all of the hand-sewing that you do, Gertie! I am just too impatient, I guess :)ReplyDelete
I used to avoid hand sewing like the plague, but as my skills have increased, I've learned that there is a place for it. There are times when pride of workmanship demands handwork.ReplyDelete
However, if something can come out just as nice if done by machine, then I say go for it!
Like you said, it's in the balance, and knowing when to use which technique.
There's a wonderful movie about Valentino (Valentino: The Last Emperor, 2008); in it, his partner Giancarlo talks about having bought a sewing machine for their sample makers. He says they never used it. Not once. Eventually, they just got rid of it. I think that's beautiful. The quality and fluidity of his designs is incontrovertible.ReplyDelete
I am a dedicated machine seamstress because, yes, I machine-wash pretty much everything. I even machine-stitch hems.ReplyDelete
I do, however, baste a lot (always by hand, for better control), sew buttons by hand, and finish some seams by hand (turned in and whipstitched). I've done buttonholes by hand but was recently given a newer machine that, hopefully, will do buttonholes better than my old machine. I hate hand-sewing buttonholes.
As a kid, I hand-sewed EVERYTHING, including an entire dress I designed and made when I was 11-- I even set the zipper in by hand.ReplyDelete
As an adult, however, I always hated having to slow down to do the hand-sewing bits (particularly necessary when sewing with vintage patterns) because I was always "stealing" time out of my busy schedule to sew. As a result, I did not have time to do the hand-sewing well, if at all.
This year, I have been on sabbatical and have taken up millinery. Hat-making requires oodles of hand-sewing. To do it, I had to learn lots of couture techniques. And I LOVED it! It is so lovely to be able to take the time to sew something really, really well and have it look great. And so, given the luxury of TIME, I find that I am a convert: I love hand-sewing! It makes me feel connected to the heritage of couture, though I am in now way ready to get a job in an atelier! :)
It really depends. I haven't found a way to sew seed beads on to a belly dance costume by machine(and I can't see how they'd be more secure).ReplyDelete
But then again, if I need a costume in a hurry the machine is your friend.
Loving all the insights on this subject! I did see the Valentino movie; I always think of it when I don't feel like hand sewing something!ReplyDelete
Tenshi, I don't think they should exclude each other. As I said, I think a balance of both is probably most realistic.
i don't mind combining machine & hand-sewing. i think there are certain tasks that require certain techniques - for example, i won't sew a "blind hem" using a machine because it always looks awful, and definitely not blind. hand-sewing is better for that. but as far as sewing the structural seams in a garment, i see no reason why i can't use the machine. of course, i do enjoy hand-sewing... i find it very relaxing & satisfying.ReplyDelete
Generally, I prefer to do the bulk of my sewing on the machine, but it is nice sometimes to sit and watch tv and hand sew. I'm also self-taught and sew on a hand-me down machine with one foot so I don't really know how to do lots of things on my machine. And it sews crap button holes so I do a lot of bound ones.ReplyDelete
I truly suck at handsewing & my sewing & knitting projects always languish in that almost-done state for ages until I bite the bullet & do the handsewing parts. I'm not sure why I'm so resistant, because once I get started, I don't mind it so much. The getting started is a major chore for me, though.ReplyDelete
Yeah... I'm with ParisGrrl on the call for a guest column by that friend of yours. I would love to save time on handstitching! (Though I would still do it on those certain garments where you just want that couture finnish!)ReplyDelete
I think hand sewing and machine sewing should go hand in hand together.. not go against each other. I will stitch all the seams/zips ect by machine but i do enjoy finishing off projects by hand for example an invisible hem or closing up the lining along the zip so you can't see the stitches from outside.ReplyDelete
I hate to sew by hand! I am too impatient and my stitches are always crooked and uneven. I use my machine whenever possible, and tend to use the serger for everything unless I'm topstitching or something that requires the regular sewing machine. But, if I am to finish any sewing project, I can't dawdle because I have 3 kids ages 4, 2, and 2, so my sewing time is limited. As such, I don't really tackle anything that is terribly involved like you do. Simple, quick, and easy, or I buy ready-made. Maybe someday I'll be on that level, but I'm definitely not there yet.ReplyDelete
- Treadle27July 5, 2011 at 11:03 AM
Why would things that are handsewn not go in the washing machine? I don't see that it's less sturdy.ReplyDelete
I rather like handsewing, usually I do it while watching TV.
- AnonymousJuly 5, 2011 at 11:12 AM
That was a fun topic! I'd love to hear some tips from that friend also! :)ReplyDelete
There's room for both kinds of sewing. Sewing by hand can be relaxing and fun if I'm in the mood and the garment is special.
I'm usually sewing for speed and durability, so no, I haven't sewn a button on by hand in years! My machine has a special foot to hold the buttons in place while it sews them on. Gotta love that!
I'd love to see the inside of some of those designer pieces that's all hand stitched. Just because I don't have the patience or time, doesn't mean I don't appreciate the work!
Prior to the Lady Grey sew along, I hated/dreaded hand sewing. But I think that was mostly because I wasn't all that practiced and felt like I was not very good at it. I wonder if that is true for others, too. But now that my skills have improved, I like sitting on the couch next to hubby with a project when I would otherwise just be sitting in front of the tube.ReplyDelete
That said, I love my SM and am always interested in new tips/techniques. So, I second the idea of a guest post.
I like sewing by hand for some things, like sewing facings down on a cuff where I can do a totally invisible stitch. I also like the pretty tacking stitch on the pleat in a lining in contrasting thread. I've never been successful with hand done buttonholes and also sew all of my buttons on by machine. I love my computer sewing machine and my serger and my many feet which simplify many jobs and end up looking more professional then I could ever do by hand. Some things I start out wanting to sew by hand like omayage.ReplyDelete
I too am a sample sewer, and it's all about speed and efficiency. On the other hand, I am also a professional tutu maker, which is about hand work and machine work. Tutus take hours to make and are very gratifying when complete, for me it's all about the process.ReplyDelete
I guess I do swing both ways :)
- JessieMJuly 5, 2011 at 11:45 AM
I'm a machine girl all the way. While I'd love to sew by hand, I am SOOOO bad at it. Plus, I think I don't quite have the patience for it. I'd love to her more "tricks of the trade" - the scotch tape over buttons is brilliant!!ReplyDelete
When hand sewing, I feel a connection to the past, which I don't when sewing with my machine. I get all nostalgic and feel like I'm on Little House on the Prairie, but I'm sure those women would have given anything to have the speed and ease that a sewing machine affords. I do a lot with both and could not give up either.ReplyDelete
10 years ago I was a firm fan of hand-stitching, I even constructed an evening gown entirely by hand, no machine work (the only machine I had access to I didn't like and it didn't like me!).ReplyDelete
I was used to hand-sewing so my stitches were neat and petite. Now I am far too out of practice to consider it and I get a confidence from the machine that my seams are stronger for using it although I sometimes reinforce those by hand too!
But I still hand-finish a lot of my work: hems (except narrow-rolled, if the hem in miles long, I do that on the machine!), slipstitching facing and bias-tape, attaching ribbons, lace and trim, sewing on buttons, sometimes zippers. I now deliberate between hand or machine sewing button holes, my old machine was better at them than I am, my new machine is not!
And I enjoy the change in pace, you are right that there is a tactile pleasure to hand-sewing plus it can be done anywhere!
I work the same way when making and repairing costumes. The machine is necessary for speed but it is just as quick and perhaps sturdier, to do some sections (usually the internal construction, external trimmings and repairs) by hand.
- AnonymousJuly 5, 2011 at 12:02 PM
I do seams by machine but the rest feels more "special" to me if I do it by hand. When you turn the hem you can do embroidery stitches instead of straight ones & that NEVER looks the same done by machineReplyDelete
I try to do as much as possible by machine. I like the speedy aspect of it. However, if I were going to tailor a coat or make some special details, hand would be my choice. It's funny when I bought my sewing machine, a Baby Lock Decorators Choice, the woman selling it to me told me that "hand" was a 4-letter word... Since I can apply cording, blind hem, sew a button etc with all the foot attachments.ReplyDelete
I use both; I prefer machine, but there are many times that I just can't get the look I want by machine a lot of the time, so I do it by hand. Sure it takes more time, but I'm also someone who knits her own socks, so I'm willing to spend the extra time to make it look like I want it.ReplyDelete
I really enjoy time in my LazyBoy recliner with a sewing project in my lap, an old movie on Netflix and a refreshing beverage. Anytime I reach a fork in the road, if hand-sewing might give better results, I am on that LazyBoy in a heartbeat. BTW, Claire Schaffer says NOT to sew on your lap (in her Couture sewing DVD). But I don't follow her advice on that one :)ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 5, 2011 at 12:58 PM
I tend towards machine sewing, if only to avoid the aches and pains in my hands that hand sewing induces. But much like driving in traffic, I prefer to know as many alternate routes as possible. There are times when hand sewing really is the faster, less fiddly way to sew, rather than trying to get just the right angle in the sewing machine. There are times when hand finishing an edge will make all the difference between "home made" and "custom made". But there are also times when using the machine to attach a button and bind the button hole can be the difference between being able to button said button later with arthritic hands. Or when machine sewing a hem is the difference between sleeping tonight and wearing it tomorrow, or staying up all night hand sewing.ReplyDelete
There's a time and place for all sewing techniques, hand and machine, carefully finished and quick and dirty. I love picking up couture techniques just as much as I love picking up sample making techniques, as both get me to my desired destination -- a garment I can be proud of -- via different routes at different times.
Machine all the way until I get to the buttons and then I hand sew because handsewn button stay on better. Yep, everything has to go through that machine. And I haven't bought any clothes in a few years now so I sew fast. If I want to hand sew I embroider something. I absolutely loathe machine embroidery.ReplyDelete
I do everything I can with the machine ... I just prefer it. I work in a French Luxury house and they do a whole lot of things by hand!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 5, 2011 at 1:56 PM
I hate hand sewing because it irritates my RSI. Having said that, I do buttons and hems by hand. Everything else? Machine. No hand-worked buttonholes or hand picked zippers here! I also wash everything in the machine, and hand sewing doesn't hold up that way.ReplyDelete
I try to find the best of both worlds. I find that hand sewing gives me greater control in some applications. Also, the process. The handling of the fabric and watching the piece come together, by hand.ReplyDelete
I fully agree with your comment. "To be a versatile seamstress, you really do need to have an arsenal of skills ready to go at any given moment." That is the "school of sewing" philosophy that I was taught in and continue to learn in! I feel that once you put that philosophy into place in the foundation of your sewing skills, it only makes you FREE to be more creative IN sewing. It then goes away from "(Wo)man vs. machine" to "Woman uses machine as one of the tools of her aresenal of versatile AND varied sewing skills to sew whatever she wants, and express her full creative style in the clothing she sews. It won't matter what the garment is and sometimes does not matter how longs or short a time it takes to make it, the versatile seamstress is the woman who wins the victory in THAT battle- ALL THE TIME! THANKS Gertie for the comment! Be well!ReplyDelete
I tend to do a bit of both, but I do have a soft spot for a vintage sewing machine (or ten! If you haven't seen my 'Confessions of a sewing machine junkie' posts, go see for yourself ;) heh)ReplyDelete
I never knew you could sew on buttons with a machine! what a clever trick! I might go give this a go when I can finally get back to sewing and finish off some projects.
When I do alterations however I do mostly do it by hand, especially when altering my boyfriends suit jackets so they fit perfectly snug but with just enough room for movement!

Anything I can sew by machine, I will gladly do so. My only limit is my kinda not great machine (tho' for the past month, I've been borrowing my mom's newer, fancier machine, which is amazing & does things my junker can't! love this).ReplyDelete
For me, sewing isn't about the process, it's about the end result. I love to design new outfits & envision what they'll turn out like & how I'll wear them. Sewing is a means to an end. The machine is the fastest route to my goal. If there are things the machine can't do, I'll sew by hand, but I don't really get off on the physical act of sewing. It's merely a necessary task to me.
- MarjorytJuly 5, 2011 at 3:20 PM
I've done both, will do both, but if a machine will do it nicely, I give permission.ReplyDelete
Hemming and mending...to be honest, sometimes it's just easier to hand sew. For instance, I just altered hemlines on 5 pair of my husband's slacks, sewed on 5 assorted buttons, and resewed a ripped soccer jersey seam. These were all quicker to do by hand; just filling the bobbins would take time.
- Jennifer SJuly 5, 2011 at 3:21 PM
I do both. I cannot get the hang of the blind hem foot on either of my machines, but I can do a pretty mean blind hem by hand. Because of my blog reading, I've actually taken up sewing in zippers by hand once in a while, though I've also fallen in love with the invisible zipper.ReplyDelete
I hand sew on ALL buttons, but that is because nothing cheeses me off more than a button that is sewn on by machine. One little loose thread and there you are, in a rush, with mismatched thread, trying to tack it back on so you can get to work and not flash anyone.
I'm a cross sticher and bead freak too, so I guess that goes into my enjoyment of handsewing.
As a bad girl sewer, I have my machine set up in the living room because my sewing room is too lonely. I watch a lot of movies and tv shows while I sew, so most of my garments have memories attached to them. For instance, the dress I'm wearing today was nearly finished while I watched "Pirhana" last weekend. I keep seeing people getting their face eaten off, but that's the memory attached to this dress now.
BTW - my word verification for this was "sperm". Who thinks of this stuff?
I hand-sew all of my projects. Because I travel a lot and cannot take a machine wherever I go. But it also became a little passion of mine. My last big project was a coat, which I love. The fact that it's completly handsewn feels like a little hidden luxurious extra to me.ReplyDelete
I wash these garments like all other clothes, depending on the fabric, not the seams and I've never had any problems. Also, I can't say that hand sewn garments are less sturdy, it depends on the technique that is used. People often ask me how long it takes to hand-sew something. But actually now, with practice, I don't need much more time compared to when I was using a machine.
A personal benefit is that I am forced to sew more thoughtful and I can't rush my work, like I sometimes did when I was machine sewing. I am rather impatient at times and this paces and relaxes me.
- AnonymousJuly 5, 2011 at 4:20 PM
I agree with Threadless 27: why can't you machine wash handsewn items? If it's a decent backstitch or other sturdy stitch, I don't see how it's any less strong than what a machine could do. John Henry FTW!ReplyDelete
And Deborah Raymond, it's interesting that you mention Little House on the Prairie because I just re-read These Happy Golden Years, the second to last book in the series, in which Ma gets a sewing machine in time to help Laura make her trousseau (there's a lot of sewing in this book). The machine was indeed a godsend for making sheets and other things with mile-long seams. When Laura proposes the idea, Ma says," Our grandmothers would turn in their graves, but after all, these are modern times." (Of course she also says"...such beautiful stitching. The best of seamstresses could not possibly equal it by hand." Which distressed me a little, but then mew technologies always prompt fevered rhetoric.)
- atelierflouJuly 5, 2011 at 4:30 PM
I prefer to combine hand sewing and machine stitching, with an emphasis on hand work. I don't do it because I want to be slow for the sake of being slow, but because I have more control and get better results.ReplyDelete
I'm not surprised that a sample maker would use a machine for virtually everything. The garment ultimately will be made by sewers in a factory using machines. Hand sewing would drive up the price.
I tend to sew the long seams by machine and save the handwork for the finishing details. Not only do I enjoy sewing by hand, but there really are some techniques that can only be accomplished by hand. I've hemmed the armhole openings of dresses for my baby girl, and I use straight bands of fabric to face round neck openings.ReplyDelete
- RosalieJuly 5, 2011 at 6:10 PM
Hand sewing is my meditation...machine my thrill!ReplyDelete
I much prefer hand sewing for its therapeutic qualities but mainly because I can and am good at it. Saying that though, my Xmas present was a brand new Bernina which is slowly taking over the banal jobs that are usually put to the bottom of the sewing pile.
I am a teacher of machine sewing.ReplyDelete
I am also a designer of children's clothing - those are all made by hand.
Hand sewing gives you total control - no mistakes! It is relaxing, and really does not take more time.
I love hand sewing. Can't really afford a great machine, but my hands do fine work.ReplyDelete
When I first started sewing, I did everything by hand because I didn't have access to a machine. Hours and hours of backstitching later, I bought the absolute cheapest machine I could find and have been using it happily for the last seven years. I try to avoid hand sewing now, but mostly because the lighting in my apartment is terrible. I save it for princess seams and sleeves, mostly.ReplyDelete
I find hand sewing relaxing and you can do it while watching TV. It kind of annoys my family if I try to sew on my machine while they are watching something ;) I feel like I have better control for some things too. For example, I have never had any luck catching the facing of a waistband with top-stitching on the waistband. Many patterns ask for it and it always looks horrible when I attempt it. So I usually sew the facing down by hand. I use to sew the facing to the zipper by hand until I saw three tutorials in a row on how to do it by machine and I must say it gives a professional result -- though a little dismayed at a previous poster calling it a hatchet job method :-/ReplyDelete
My mum taught me to hand baste for more accurate machine sewing results. I guess old habits die hard.
- dawn sJuly 5, 2011 at 11:10 PM
I definitely swing both ways on hand and machine sewing.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 6, 2011 at 8:26 AM
It really depends on the project. The last dress I worked on was a made with heavily sequined & embroidered tuelle so I spent ages basting it to organza & the dress lining. All the hems were hand-picked & I really only used the machine for the side seams & for putting a casing on the seam allowances (those sequins are itchy!). But one of my next projects will be a simple sateen sundress & I expect that I will use my machine every step of the way.ReplyDelete
I used to only sew by machine but a friend taught me that basting makes this so so much easier. I know do both and enjoy it. I find hand sewing relaxing.ReplyDelete
- Jean SJuly 6, 2011 at 4:02 PM
I do both. It all depends on the project....ReplyDelete
I also find hand sewing meditative. Not everyone does, of course! (each to their own....)
Mostly machine for me with some hand sewing. I prefer the way jacket and coat linings sit when I sew them in by hand. I do my hems by hand and I secure facings by hand. How ever, I do believe I would enjoy doing special little extra things by hand if I knew how.ReplyDelete
Mostly machine. I like to throw everything in the washing machine so the main concern has to be washableness (if that's a word). Also sewing for children means it has to be sturdy.ReplyDelete
Second the call for a guest column from your friend if he'll do it!
I sew both by hand and machine. More hand sewing goes into finer garments or tailored garments. I generally sew zippers in by hand.ReplyDelete
I prefere the machine, never had a good hand with the needle!ReplyDelete
Love the Elna-picture! We sell Elna at work, so its funny to see an old ad for it! ;)
Love the tulip sleeves.ReplyDelete
I think there's a zen to hand sewing. When I have time, I love to sit in front of my television and hem a nice big circle skirt (until I'm about 10 feet in I guess). I feel more pride in my work when I do hand sewing. Of course there are instances where everything on a garment is machine sewn because that's what time allows. (Like for my 5 year old, who's so rough on her clothes, it's not worth my effort to hand sew parts of it.)ReplyDelete
I'm a machine person except when I have one of those very special projects that I really want to do slowly and enjoy the process. The main reason I go the machine route started from wanting to discover the "secret sewing techniques". You know, the techniques that the pattern companies would never tell us about and just told us to sew by hand instead. I knew that the RTW factories were not sitting around have their workers doing hand sewing. Now, I get so excited when I find a new machine technique :)ReplyDelete
BTW - Thanks for the basting tip!

We're so glad you've found us and would like to thank you with a 10% off code for your first purchase!Code: HelloThere
Affirmation: I let go of what I can not change. I embrace the present with an open heart.
Beryl is a category of gemstones that comes in a variety of colors:
We've designed our Beryl bracelet with uniquely rustic and natural gemstones. The colors are truly unique.
Add an optional silver-tone heart charm as a reminder for practicing self-love.
Your handmade bracelet will arrive in a soft organic cotton pouch accompanied by a description card with affirmation and stone properties. A gift box option is available at checkout.
Focus on Your Goal.......Your piece arrives to you already charged and ready for use or wear. Once you take it out of it's packaging, hold the stones close to you. Close your eyes and focus on what you hope to accomplish. Your intention. Periodically, the stones should be cleansed and recharged .
1. Place your piece outside or by a window where they can soak up moonlight over night. We recommend moonlight because some stones can fade in sunlight. A few of the stones that are known to fade are amethyst, celestite, opal, and turquoise.
2. After cleansing hold the piece close to you to fully charge it. Take some quiet time to focus and visualize your intentions. Breathe leisurely until you feel connected to that intention.
Your crystals and gemstone pieces are now ready!
How to Determine Sizing:
Our sizes are measured before a bracelet is closed, tied and finished.
Simply measure your wrist in the areas you'd like your bracelet to sit. Skimming the skin. Not loose, not tight. Add 1/2" to 3/4" to that size. My own wrist measures 5 7/8", but I like the bracelet to move a little, so all of the pieces I wear are 6 3/4". A 6 1/4" bracelet would fit me it has no movement on my wrist and is too snug.
If you are ordering a bracelet with a large focal stone and/or 10mm + sized stones, we recommend sizing at least an inch from the size of your wrist as these stones take up more of the circumfirence in s circle.
Please note that it is difficult to be exactly precise when working with gemstones in sizing and there can be +/- 1/8" variation in size.
We are happy to accomodate sizing requests as well as special requests. Please contact us prior to ordering to make sure we can accomodate you :)
Each piece arrives cleansed, smudged and ready for wear!
Please note that each piece is hand made and ships in 3 to 6 business days*, regardless of the shipping method you choose. We offer free shipping on domestic orders over $40. If you should need your purchase created faster, please contact us before ordering :) Thank you!

Randy Travis CRITICAL CONDITION with Heart Issues
Country superstar Randy Travis is in CRITICAL CONDITION after suffering from complications stemming from recently acquired viral cardiomyopathy ... this according to the singer's rep.
We're told the 54-year-old Grammy winner was admitted to a hospital in Texas yesterday.
According to the Mayo Clinic, cardiomyopathy is a "disease that weakens and enlarges your heart muscle." Cardiomyopathy can lead to heart failure.
It's unclear what caused Travis' condition.
Travis was scheduled to perform in Deadwood, South Dakota on Wednesday.

Officials: Bomb suspect silent after read rights
BOSTON — Sixteen hours after investigators began interrogating him, the surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings went silent: he'd just been read his constitutional rights.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev immediately stopped talking after a magistrate judge and a representative from the U.S. Attorney's office entered his hospital room and gave him his Miranda warning, according to four officials of both political parties briefed on the interrogation. They insisted on anonymity because the briefing was private.
Before being advised of his rights, the 19-year-old suspect told authorities that his older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, only recently had recruited him to be part of the attack that detonated pressure-cooker bombs at the marathon finish line, two U.S. officials said.
( PHOTOS: Boston Marathon bombings suspects)
The CIA, however, had named Tamerlan to a terrorist database 18 months ago, said officials close to the investigation who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case with reporters.
The new disclosure that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was included within a huge, classified database of known and suspected terrorists before the attacks was expected to drive congressional inquiries in coming weeks about whether the Obama administration adequately investigated tips from Russia that Tsarnaev had posed a security threat.
Shortly after the bombings, U.S. officials said the intelligence community had no information about threats to the marathon before the April 15 explosions that killed three people and injured more than 260.
Tsarnaev died Friday in a police shootout hours before Dzhokhar was discovered hiding in a boat in a suburban back yard. He was wounded.
Washington is piecing together what happened and whether there were any unconnected dots buried in U.S. government files that, if connected, could have prevented the bombings.
Lawmakers who were briefed by the FBI said they have more questions than answers about the investigation of Tamerlan Tsarnaev. House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., said lawmakers intend to pursue whether there was a breakdown in information-sharing, though Rep. Adam Schiff, a California Democrat who sits on the House Intelligence Committee, said he "hasn't seen any red flags thus far."
U.S. officials were expected to brief the Senate on the investigation Thursday. That same day, the suspects' parents, Anzor Tsarnaev and Zubeidat Tsarnaeva, plan to fly to the U.S. from Russia, the father was quoted as telling the Russian state news agency RIA Novosti. The family has said it wants to take Tamerlan's body back to Russia.
It is unclear whether the issue of their younger son's constitutional rights will matter since the FBI say he confessed to a witness. U.S. officials also said Wednesday that physical evidence, including a 9 mm handgun and pieces of a remote-control device commonly used in toys, was recovered from the bombing scene.
But the debate over whether suspected terrorists should be read their Miranda rights has become a major sticking point in the debate over how best to fight terrorism. Many Republicans, in particular, believe Miranda warnings are designed to build court cases, and only hinder intelligence gathering.
Christina DiIorio Sterling, a spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz, said in an email late Wednesday, "This remains an ongoing investigation and we don't have any further comment."
Investigators have said the brothers appeared to have been radicalized through jihadist materials on the Internet and have found no evidence tying them to a terrorist group.
U.S. investigators traveled to the predominantly Muslim province of Dagestan in Russia and were in contact with the brothers' parents, hoping to gain more information.
They are looking into whether Tamerlan, who spent six months in Russia's turbulent Caucasus region in 2012, was influenced by the religious extremists who have waged an insurgency against Russian forces in the area for years. The brothers have roots in Dagestan and neighboring Chechnya but had lived in the U.S. for about a decade.
Dzhokhar told the FBI that they were angry about the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the killing of Muslims there, officials said.
Dzhokhar's public defender had no comment on the matter Wednesday. His father has called him a "true angel," and an aunt has insisted he's not guilty.
Investigators have found pieces of remote-control equipment among the debris and were analyzing them, officials said. One official described the detonator as "close-controlled," meaning it had to be triggered within several blocks of the bombs.
That evidence could be key to the court case. And an FBI affidavit said one of the brothers told a carjacking victim during their getaway attempt, "Did you hear about the Boston explosion? I did that."
Officials also recovered a 9 mm handgun believed to have been used by Tamerlan from the site of an April 18 gunbattle that injured a Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority officer, two U.S. officials said.
The officials told the AP that no gun was found in the boat where Dzhokhar was hiding. Boston police Commissioner Ed Davis said earlier that shots were fired from inside the boat.
Asked whether the suspect had a gun in the boat, Davis said, "I'm not going to talk about that."
But Kurt Schwartz, director of the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency, said a police officer was shot within half a mile of where Tsarnaev was captured, "and I know who shot him."
Authorities had previously said Dzhokhar exchanged gunfire with them for more than an hour Friday night before they captured him inside a tarp-covered boat in a suburban Boston neighborhood backyard. But two U.S. officials said Wednesday that he was unarmed when captured, raising questions about the gunfire and how he was injured.
In other developments:
— Vice President Joe Biden condemned the bombing suspects as "two twisted, perverted, cowardly, knockoff jihadis" while speaking at a memorial service Wednesday for Sean Collier, a campus police officer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who was ambushed in his cruiser three days after the bombing. More than 4,000 mourners paid tribute to the officer.
— The Office of Health and Human Services in Massachusetts confirmed a Boston Herald report Wednesday that Tamerlan, his wife and toddler daughter had received welfare benefits up until last year, when he became ineligible based on family income. The state also says Tamerlan and his brother received welfare benefits as children through their parents while the family lived in Massachusetts.
— The area around the marathon finish line was reopened to the public.

Johnny Depp's interest in Wounded Knee causes a stir
For months, questions have swirled about whether developers, activists or tribes would be willing to plunk down millions to buy a portion of the Wounded Knee National Historic Landmark. Now there's a new potential buyer in the mix: Johnny Depp.
But is the star of "The Lone Ranger"really preparing to be the one who buys the property where hundreds of Native Americans were killed? Or is it just the latest rumor in the contentious debate over the landmark's future?
Depp touched off the story when he told London's Daily Mail newspaper that he is working to buy a piece of the landmark on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation to give back to the tribe because it's important to their culture. The site is where 300 Native American men, women and children were killed by the 7th Cavalry in 1890.
"I am doing my best to make that happen," he told the newspaper of a possible purchase. "It's land they were pushed on to and then they were massacred there. It really saddens me."
Landowner James Czywczynski, whose family has owned the property since 1968, is trying to sell the 40-acre fraction of the historic landmark and another 40-acre parcel for $4.9 million. The two parcels of land have been assessed for $14,000. The sale has sparked outrage among tribal members who feel Czywczynski is trying to profit from the killing of their ancestors.
Since the interview was published last week, Depp's been quiet, and there's been no record of an offer made for the land. Depp's publicist did not respond to repeated calls and emails seeking comment, while Czywczynski, who has said his goal has always been to get the land back to the tribe, did not return calls.
Oglala Sioux President Bryan Brewer, whose tribe lives on Pine Ridge, said he has not been contacted by anyone in Depp's camp and was first notified of the actor's interest when someone from England called him for reaction. Brewer said he and a group of descendants of Wounded Knee survivors are hoping to meet with Czywczynski soon.
The possibility of the celebrity purchase is generating debate in Native American communities. Some question Depp's motives due to the timing of "The Lone Ranger" release, which debuted with a dismal $19.5 million in ticket sales on its opening weekend in early July. Depp, who plays the part of the Native American character Tonto in the film, has been accused of playing into stereotypes and misappropriating Native American culture. Tonto speaks broken English, wears a stuffed crow on his head and has a face painted with white and black stripes. Some Native Americans view the character as a parody.
Depp's also been criticized for saying that he does have Native American ancestry, but he's unsure if it's Cherokee or Creek.
"People I've talked to think he's in it for redemption because he's gotten bad reviews," said Oglala Sioux tribal member Dawn Moves Camp, 30.
Besides its proximity to the burial grounds, the land includes the site of a former trading post burned down during the 1973 Wounded Knee uprising, in which hundreds of American Indian Movement protesters occupied the town built at the massacre site. The 71-day standoff that left two tribal members dead and a federal agent seriously wounded is credited with raising awareness about Native American struggles and giving rise to a wider protest movement.
Depp's purchase of the land would be an easy answer for the tribe, Moves Camp said, but it would also be dehumanizing.
"It's also buying into the idea that our ancestry and history have a price tag on them," she said, later adding: "We have pride too. We'd rather it be done in an honorable way. I hope our tribe finds some way to buy the land back without outside help."
For some descendants of those killed in the massacre, how the tribe gets the land doesn't matter. What does is that the tribe gets it back, said Joseph Brings Plenty, a former chairman of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe who had several ancestors killed in the 1890 massacre.
Although the land sits on the Pine Ridge reservation, many of the descendants of the massacre victims and survivors are members of several different Lakota tribes.
"Honestly, I don't think it would be a bad thing if Johnny Depp would purchase it with the cooperation of the tribes," he said. What's most important, he said, is that the land is preserved and an accurate account of what happened is shared with visitors through a monument.
Tribal members have disagreed over the years about how to commemorate the lives lost at Wounded Knee. While there is a small monument listing some of the names of those killed in 1890, some tribal members think a larger statue or structure is needed to educate the public.
Sonny Skyhawk, a Sicangu Lakota actor and founder of American Indians in Film and Television, said although he was not a fan of Depp playing Tonto in "The Lone Ranger," purchasing the land would be a "great opportunity" for Depp to step forward and do something for Native Americans.
"If it's from the heart, we accept it. If it's not from the heart, we'll accept it anyways because it's such a meaningful undertaking when you look at the significance of what the sacred ground next to it is," he said.

First of all, sorry for my absence - my little sister got married this past weekend and I intended to have some posts scheduled but with the travelling, last minute wedding details and all the fun we had in Texas, it just didn't happen. But I'm back and I've got some great recipes to share with you coming up.
I've been eyeing the fresh pineapple every time I walked through the produce department for a couple of weeks. Finally I decided to buy one. I have to admit, I have never bought a fresh pineapple before thinking it would be way too much work to cut up. If I bought it fresh, I would buy the already cored and cleaned pineapple for way too much money that comes in a little plastic cup. But that means I over paid by about 5 times. For something that is really very easy. So if you have this same trepidation about purchasing a whole fresh pineapple, check back tomorrow for a how-to post and learn just how simple it is. If you want to, you could also use canned pineapple to make these burgers, but fresh pineapple grilled better and make sure you buy the pineapple in its own juice not heavy syrup.
For now, let's talk about these burgers. These were absolutely delicious. I had a chicken sandwich at a restaurant once (although I cannot remember what restaurant) that had pineapple, pepper jack cheese, BBQ sauce and chicken breast. I wasn't a big fan of the BBQ sauce, but I loved the combination of spicy cheese and sweet pineapple. I had some ground chicken breast at home and since I had finally decided to buy the fresh pineapple, I decided to make my own version. I think the pineapple is juicy enough and as long as you don't overcook your burger, the sauce is unnecessary but if you wanted to add something, a little chipotle mayo would be my recommendation. I would also throw a couple slices of red onion on these next time but I didn't have any on hand this time. As you can see in the pictures, I served these burgers with some chipotle corn on the cob that was a great match, so check back for that recipe later this week.
Spicy Hawaiian Burgers
2 pounds ground chicken
6 pineapple rings (or equivalent slices, cut about 1/2" - 3/4" thick)
6 slices pepper jack cheese
6 whole wheat hamburger buns
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp seasoning salt (I use Lawry's)
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 clove garlic, minced
Combine the ground chicken, soy sauce, 1/2 the paprika, 1/2 the chili powder, seasoning salt, cumin, and garlic. Lightly mix with your hands and divide into 6 even balls. Form patties, making them slightly thinner in the middle and sprinkle with remaining paprika and chili powder. Refrigerate about 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Coat grates lightly with oil. Grill burgers over medium heat about 6 minutes per side. The burgers should flip easily when they are ready to turn, if they want to stick, give them another minute. Top with cheese for the last 1-2 minutes of cooking time to melt. Remove to a plate and cover with aluminum foil to rest. Grill buns if desired.
For the pineapple, if you are using rings, grill directly on the grates over medium heat. Carefully turn after 1-2 minutes. If you are using pineapple slices or chunks, thread onto skewers and grill skewers in the same fashion. Assemble burgers and enjoy.

Spicy Hawaiian Burgers
First of all, sorry for my absence - my little sister got married this past weekend and I intended to have some posts scheduled but with the travelling, last minute wedding details and all the fun we had in Texas, it just didn't happen. But I'm back and I've got some great recipes to share with you coming up.

Oh, this looks so yummy. I am nervous about pineapple on my burger, but I might need to try this it just look juicy and refreshing.ReplyDelete
@Jennifurla - it seems odd at first but it's really a great combination. Do you like fruit in salads or other savory/sweet combinations? If you do, I'm guessing you'll like this one.ReplyDelete

These looks so fresh and summary! I'm really liking pineapple with savory things lately. :) I also have never bought a whole one - looking forward to your tutorial on how to cut one!ReplyDelete
Now this looks GOOD!! What a great idea for a burger!!ReplyDelete
Looks fantastic. That grilled pineapple looks so good on that burger.ReplyDelete
These look so good! I love the idea of putting grilled pineapple on a burger.ReplyDelete
That is one tasty looking burger!ReplyDelete
I agree that it looks and sounds yummy! But ground chicken...? Where do I get ground chicken?ReplyDelete
- Bachelor Bob
@Bob - you have 3 options... get it from a butcher, buy a package in the supermarket - it will be at the meat counter with the rest of the chicken, or make you own by grinding some skinless, boneless chicken in a food processor.ReplyDelete
That looks absolutely wonderful! I've been looking for a recipe like this. Thanks!ReplyDelete

The best place to buy fresh pineapple is Aldi's.ReplyDelete
This sounds absolutely amazing, different and refreshing. A new twist to the burger.....and is sounds healthy and yummy!ReplyDelete
This is such an excellent recipe! I just featured these burgers on the VirtualWineBar.com as today's "Daily Nosh". I paired them with a bottle of Alta Maria 2009 Chardonnay.ReplyDelete
Wow! We made these tonight, and they were delicious!! Thanks for sharing this recipe!ReplyDelete

Everyone in my family loved these burgers. Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete

I made these two nights in a row! I added a bit of shiracha to the bun. I used thin wheat buns. So good! I also added a light dusting of bread crumbs to the out side of the burger for easier handling. Ground chicken is very sticky.ReplyDelete
These look great and I'm making some right now but when does the garlic go in...? Am I just missing it?ReplyDeleteReplies
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
These were really yummy! Sriacha on the bun is a MUST!ReplyDelete
I just mixed these up and there are really "soupy", no way I can make them into patties. I am assuming it's because I bought the pre-packaged tubes of ground chicken. :( I am so bummed b/c I was SO excited to make these tonight for dinner!ReplyDeleteReplies
Mine were a sloppy mess too! I took a baking sheet lined with foil and sprayed with PAM, then somehow formed blobs of chicken slop into circular forms....they're in the oven now, hoping they'll firm up a bit and then I can finish them off on the grill. I used Purdue ground chicken.Delete
I had the same problem - they were so mushy I couldn't get the goop off my fingers, let alone form patties! I lined a baking sheet with foil, sprayed it with PAM, and scooped out blobs of the mix - then I baked it in the oven at 350 for 10 minutes to firm them up a bit, then put them on the grill to finish them off...but then they were overdone :(Delete
- AnonymousJune 19, 2014 at 3:40 PM
Try adding in some bread crumbs (or mashed up saltine crackers!) This might not work if its too "soupy" but it does wonders when there is just a little too much juice!Delete
- AnonymousOctober 7, 2014 at 12:49 PM
You can also make them ahead of time and pop the mix in the fridge till it firms up again and then form the pattys. Also, spray your hands with the cooking spray and it makes it much easier to release into the pan. This happens to me when I make turkey burgers too..Delete
- AnonymousJanuary 29, 2013 at 10:41 PM
OMG, these burgers were delicious! I put sweet and sour sauce on them. My family loved them! These burgers have made it onto my dinner menu!ReplyDelete
I made these last night and they were fantastic! I had to put this recipe in my permanent book!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 4, 2013 at 4:14 PM
I saw your recipe on pinterest and my mouth started watering! I have cooked with pineapple before and love it. I made a few changes due to what I had on hand and the season. I did turkey burgers seasoned with curry, cayenne pepper, and cumin. Topped them with canned ring pinapple I roasted, caramelized sweet onions, bacon, and pepper jack cheese. On an onion roll. The family loved them. When spring has sprung I def want to make with fresh pineapple and grill it! Thanks for sharing!!!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 18, 2013 at 12:29 PM
Made these yesterday, really enjoyed them! Quick and easy, also reheated well. Thank you!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 9, 2013 at 2:32 PM
Next time you buy a fresh pineapple prop it upside down for a week! This allows the nature sugar that has settled during shipping to move back up through the pineapple. It will be the best pineapple you will ever eat! Can't wait to try your recipe!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMay 8, 2013 at 1:24 PM
how many burgers does this recipe make because all I need is maybe 4 burgers for my servingReplyDelete
- AnonymousMay 14, 2013 at 1:27 PM
I made these and they turned out great! I added some chipotle mayo on the burger for an extra kick and red onions ...with a side of garlic rosemary sweet potato fries..perfect meal..yummy!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 5, 2013 at 6:53 PM
I just noticed someone else put a post about where do you get ground chicken. I have never seen or heard of it. I would like to try it with a chicken breast I think. Yummy.ReplyDelete
These burgers were delicious! I ate mine without a bun and didn't miss it at all. Is there any easy way to print this recipe that I am missing?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 17, 2013 at 9:15 PM
I made these for dinner tonight...I normally don't care for chicken or turkey burgers, but these were SO GOOD! Thanks for a great recipe!ReplyDelete

I put pineapple on my burgers all the time. I have them growing in my yard. I live in Hawaii.ReplyDelete

What would you suggest as a side dishReplyDelete
Just put them in the oven. They seemed pretty moist, so I am hoping they stay together. I hope they turn out b/c they look delicious :)ReplyDeleteReplies
How are you cooking them in the oven? I don't have a grill and thought about making them in the oven as well thanks so much :)Delete
- AnonymousMay 22, 2014 at 10:00 AM
These are absolutely INCREDIBLE! I've made them several times using turkey instead of chicken (because I already had it). Also, I've made them in smaller "slider" size & used Hawaiian Rolls. TOTAL YUM! They are always a hit! Thanks!ReplyDelete
We made these using ground turkey and they were delicious!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousOctober 7, 2014 at 12:51 PM
I am trying these tonight, except instead of using ground chicken, I am using chicken breast and using the sauce and seasonings as a marinade. I hope it turns out. It sounds delicious!ReplyDelete
oh wow, this looks and sounds delicious, thanks for sharing this recipe.ReplyDelete
These were delicious and super quick to make.ReplyDelete
My kids asked for seconds... that never happens! Made mine on the stove top. I was nervous this would either be a huge it or an epic fail. It was a hit. Delicious. Will make again.ReplyDelete

Creating Privacy Around Your Home
You may not always agree with your family's point of view, but wouldn't it be nice if you could at least enjoy the view you've got while listening to them talk? Or maybe you live alone, but feel almost like part of the family next door since you can hear practically everything they say to each other from your bedroom window. And even if the neighbors are quiet, you're probably tired of looking out your kitchen window and seeing the rusty old boat they've been claiming to paint for the last 5 years, right? If any of this sounds familiar, then you might be in the market for a little yard makeover. We are here to help you figure out where to start.
Fences, hedges, trees and low walls are great ways to add the element of privacy to your home by shielding out unwanted neighborhood sights and sounds, while still remaining aesthetically pleasing. They are also a good economic choice because you can install them yourself if you go for an uncomplicated look and a can-do attitude. The first thing to do is a thorough walkthrough of your property. Check out your views from inside, outside, upstairs, downstairs - get all your bases covered so that you can decide where you want to add screening and where you want to leave your natural views. You might find it helpful to bring a friend or family member along with you to act as a visual aid by standing in potential screening areas. This will help you decide how tall and wide your screens need to be in order to satisfy your wandering eyes.
If you need an immediate fix, you'll probably want to go with a fence. In general, fences should be about 6 feet high for small properties. You can go up to 8 feet for areas that need it, but you don't want to feel caged in; so, be thoughtful when choosing the height of your fence and of course, check your city ordinances to find out the maximum fence height allowed in your area. Once you have decided where you want your fence and how tall it should be, you can use pre-made fence panels from any large home improvement chain near you (Home Depot, Lowe's, etc.) and build the fence yourself.
*Wood tip: If you go with a wooden fence, make sure to treat it with sealant before installation. This will keep the wood from rotting and can help double the lifespan of the wood.
If you don't mind growing into your new yard barriers slowly, you can invest in hedges or trees to give your home more natural privacy and a greater blockade for sound. Consider mixing evergreen and deciduous shrubs in your hedges, since they require less pruning year-round. Make sure you choose a tree and a pattern that works for your space - if you pick one that is too big, you will run into problems. My family moved into a new home when I was a teenager and had to remove an existing tree in our front garden because the roots were starting to push up the brick walkway to our front door and the branches were falling onto our roof when it rained. You do not want to be the cause of such problems with your tree choice. You should look for medium-sized shrubs to create a border around your yard if it is along the street and consider staggering trees throughout the perimeter. Do a little research and find one that will be the right size for your space and that will thrive in the location in which you need it.
Choosing the type of tree, hedge or shrub that's best for your property depends on your climate zone, the existing landscaping of your yard or garden and the shape of the land itself. Check with your local nursery to find out what greenery is native to your area and how you can incorporate the most appropriate ones. For example, in New England, cranberry bushes, redosier dogwood, and common juniper trees grow well, and in the Southwest, acacia and rosewood plants flourish.
You may also consider mixing trees with fencing to give your yard a more complex look. Short walls of three or four foot height can be installed to create seating areas and to add a color. Walls also may be used as a canvas for beautiful vines or tall flowers if you're looking for an extra splash of life outside.

Many classes have shortcut names used when creating (instantiating) a class with a
configuration object. The shortcut name is referred to as an
alias (or
xtype if the
class extends Ext.Component). The alias/xtype is listed next to the class name of
applicable classes for quick reference.
Framework classes or their members may be specified as
private or
protected. Else,
the class / member is
protected, and
private are access
descriptors used to convey how and when the class or class member should be used.
Public classes and class members are available for use by any other class or application code and may be relied upon as a stable and persistent within major product versions. Public classes and members may safely be extended via a subclass.
Protected class members are stable
public members intended to be used by the
owning class or its subclasses. Protected members may safely be extended via a subclass.
Private classes and class members are used internally by the framework and are not intended to be used by application developers. Private classes and members may change or be omitted from the framework at any time without notice and should not be relied upon in application logic.

Below is an example class member that we can disect to show the syntax of a class member (the lookupComponent method as viewed from the Ext.button.Button class in this case).
Called when a raw config object is added to this container either during initialization of the items config, or when new items are added), or {@link #insert inserted.
This method converts the passed object into an instanced child component.

will note the type of class or object returned and a description (

the example) just after the member description
Defaults to: false)
The API documentation uses a number of flags to further commnicate the class member's function and intent. The label may be represented by a text label, an abbreviation, or an icon.
false is returned from
an event handler
- Indicates a framework class
- A singleton framework class. *See the singleton flag for more information
- A component-type framework class (any class within the Ext JS framework that extends Ext.Component)
- Indicates that the class, member, or guide is new in the currently viewed version
- Indicates a class member of type
- Indicates a class member of type
- Indicates a class member of type
- Indicates a class member of type
- Indicates a class member of type
theme variable
- Indicates a class member of type
theme mixin
- Indicates that the class, member, or guide is new in the currently viewed version
Just below the class name on an API doc page is a row of buttons corresponding to the types of members owned by the current class. Each button shows a count of members by type (this count is updated as filters are applied). Clicking the button will navigate you to that member section. Hovering over the member-type button will reveal a popup menu of all members of that type for quick navigation.
Getting and setter methods that correlate to a class config option will show up in the methods section as well as in the configs section of both the API doc and the member-type menus just beneath the config they work with. The getter and setter method documentation will be found in the config row for easy reference.
Your page history is kept in localstorage and displayed (using the available real estate) just below the top title bar. By default, the only search results shown are the pages matching the product / version you're currently viewing. You can expand what is displayed by clicking on the button on the right-hand side of the history bar and choosing the "All" radio option. This will show all recent pages in the history bar for all products / versions.
Within the history config menu you will also see a listing of your recent page visits. The results are filtered by the "Current Product / Version" and "All" radio options. Clicking on the button will clear the history bar as well as the history kept in local storage.
If "All" is selected in the history config menu the checkbox option for "Show product details in the history bar" will be enabled. When checked, the product/version for each historic page will show alongside the page name in the history bar. Hovering the cursor over the page names in the history bar will also show the product/version as a tooltip.
Both API docs and guides can be searched for using the search field at the top of the page.
On API doc pages there is also a filter input field that filters the member rows using the filter string. In addition to filtering by string you can filter the class members by access level, inheritance, and read only. This is done using the checkboxes at the top of the page.
The checkbox at the bottom of the API class navigation tree filters the class list to include or exclude private classes.
Clicking on an empty search field will show your last 10 searches for quick navigation.
Each API doc page (with the exception of Javascript primitives pages) has a menu view of metadata relating to that class. This metadata view will have one or more of the following:
Ext.button.Button class has an alternate class name of
Ext.Button). Alternate class
names are commonly maintained for backward compatibility.
Runnable examples (Fiddles) are expanded on a page by default. You can collapse and expand example code blocks individually using the arrow on the top-left of the code block. You can also toggle the collapse state of all examples using the toggle button on the top-right of the page. The toggle-all state will be remembered between page loads.
Class members are collapsed on a page by default. You can expand and collapse members using the arrow icon on the left of the member row or globally using the expand / collapse all toggle button top-right.
Viewing the docs on narrower screens or browsers will result in a view optimized for a smaller form factor. The primary differences between the desktop and "mobile" view are:
The class source can be viewed by clicking on the class name at the top of an API doc page. The source for class members can be viewed by clicking on the "view source" link on the right-hand side of the member row.
GridPlugins is a package for Sencha ExtJS and works with the following versions:
classic toolkit:
modern toolkit:
If you are new to Ext JS then it's better to start by visiting Learn ExtJS.
Since the component depends on the ExtJS framework it will basically work in all browsers supported by the respective ExtJS version.
The component is delivered with full source code that follows the Sencha coding convention. The source code is packaged in one Sencha package that can be easily deployed to the packages folder of your ExtJS app.
Just modify your app.json file to require gridPlugins:
"name": "YourApp",
"requires": [
"id": "391a5ff6-2fd8-4e10-84d3-9114e1980e2d"
If you don't use an ExtJS app then you can also use the compiled versions found inside the
build folder.

Liberty Village is located on one of Toronto's oldest settlements, and is bounded by King Street West to the north, Strachan Avenue to the east, the Gardiner Expressway to the south and Dufferin Street to the west. It also extends up along the northeast towards the CP railway tracks. The location of Liberty Village is part of what makes it so attractive – a 15 minute walk to the Lakeshore, 20 minutes on the streetcar to the financial core and just a 20 minute walk from King Street West: the entertainment, fashion and gallery districts. The area has experienced rapid growth in condominiums, loft apartments, a new park, office space, a wide number of new shops and restaurants.
Many of the former industrial buildings have been converted into residential lofts and mixed commercial use spaces. The area that is known for its successful art and design studios, and many jobs have also been created through the relocation of Canadian and US design and technology firms.
"Morphed from an industrial dead zone into an enclave of concrete, glass and brick in just a few years", is the way Toronto Life described Liberty Village.
