He sees, She sees

He sees a Self-Levelling Laser Level with a tripod.


She sees one hellava hi-tech hem marking tool.


Actually, I totally can't take any credit because my dad suggested this whilst I was attempting to level the hem of a dress my mum is making. I'm hanging out with the parentals in Brisbane this weekend where it really is 'beautiful one day, and perfect the next'. 

Whatta champ!

  2. neat idea. and why not. whatever makes sewing more enjoyable (and trying getting a hem straight can really be a pain in you know where...)

  3. Amazing! You still need a second person I guess, but you could rope anyone into it....

  4. Very very cool! Though you still need another person to pin the hem. I need a version that can be done without another human. :)

    1. yep... Just coz it's high tech... doesn't mean it's actually any better. We still need something smart for the solo-sewing sewist!

  7. That's so cool - even if you still need another person to help - it makes it so much easier. Gotta love technology!

  11. ...a very expensive hem marking tool, hehe. I might have to hit up one of Nerdy Hubby's surveying friends for a play with one of theirs!

  13. What a nifty idea! I have a 'puffer' hem marker on order ATM. This gadget can be used solo. It is still easier with a helper but gives better results than just pinning if your helper is a non-sewer!

  14. This is the Best Idea Ever in the history of hems! Probably! Such a good idea! :)

    Hey next time you're in Brisbane give me a shout and maybe we can go fondle fabrics together or something. :)
