How many bundles would I need for a full sew-in?

You would need 2 packs of hair for a full sew in. It also depends on the size of your head.

It all depends on how full you want your hair. I was able to use one bundle on my hair and it made it look very natural...if you have a small head like mine :P But if you are looking for a more dramatic look, go for 2 :)

I'm sorry I can't give you a d you to know approximately how much thread you get so I used one spool of black which I really don't need,and I put it on about 5 bobbins,a little l I figured its about 5 bobbins full,a little less. worth,for the price,I think its good.

I used 6 because each strand is very thin. I wanted a fuller, thicker look and needed 4 strands for each twist, which made me need 6 packs. I hope this helps!

$6.00 is for one pack of 5 needles. I do not always buy the needle with the machine name. I use Singer & Universal on my Brother, Singer, & Janome. Just FYI you can look on Craftsy, How to choose Sewing Needles: I know you did not ask for the info, however it could be useful. Hope this helps.

I've sewn through 4 layers of denim using the appropriate needle for heavy fabrics. The machine can handle up to 15/64" thickness of material. For stretch fabrics, there is a particular needle and stitch patterns for stretch and elastic sewing.

It depends on a couple of things. First, how strong is your interest in sewing? This may sound stupid, but if you are not sure you are going to enjoy the art of sewing I would buy the least expensive thing possible that will still yield good results. That is what I did. The Sewist 500 fit the bill perfectly for me to learn how to sew. It is basic and mechanical, so it is virtually indestructible for novice sewers. However, after about a year, I realized the machine was not going to meet my needs for the long term. At that point, I began investigating alternatives and purchased a mid-arm Juki that is specifically for quilting. I love it. It does exactly what I need it to do and does it beautifully. So, the second part for you to consider is what is your sewing interest and how accomplished are you? If you are a novice and are uncertain, then stick with the Sewist. It is very much a generalist machine. Does it have 30 different stitches? No. Do you need 30 different stitches? Not unless you plan to do embroidery. If that is your plan, you may find you outgrow the 8077 pretty quickly, too. If you already have an interest established, look for the machine that best sets you up to follow that passion. I also highly recommend going to fabric stores etc to test machines. Don't just read about them online and then buy. Seriously, each one has a different personality. Find the one that fits you.

I really don't remember how many bobbins came into the package. For my wife the bobbins aren't relevant, as we make ours from cardboard. You can use one of the plastic bobbins as a template to make your own cardboard bobbins.

If you have 5 separate lines I would ASSUME you would need 5. We only had one line with a wheel at both ends. So this device ties the two ends together. So if you have more then two ends (one piece of rope) you would need more.

1 bundle in the pack, I bought 2 packs and it was enough for my sew in and covered my full head

For my hair (there's a lot of it), I got 5 packs and cut the bundles I used in half, and it was more than enough and the twists were still long. I actually still have a pack 1/2 left. To be safe, I'd order between 4-6 packs, but 5 worked for me.

Yes, 3 bundles are enough for a full head, but if you love puffing look, you need extra one, thank you .

I think you should be all set with this machine. The bobbins and everything you need to get started should be included. This machine is easy to operate and thread. Best of luck! This is great for a first time buyer.

Most people use 3 bundles for a natural look but I use 4 for a more complete look.

Yes, this really is for that type of materials. Of course, you still need the proper threads (usually heavy duty nylon) and very heavy duty needles (18 or 20). I would seriously advise you to sew on scraps (or similar weights) to set tension and make sure you're getting a good stitch before you try sewing on your project.

I'd recommend a minimum of 12 - if you do Landry everyday. I have the Thirsties prefolds as well and absolutely love them. I'm still using the small size on my petite 18 month old. I had 1 of each and just liked them so much better than these. Better investment and useful longer, as well as more versatile. But maybe get a few of each and see which you like best. You can always add more of what you like to your stash and with a newborn, you almost can't have too many inserts. Definitely hemp is the way to go. Much more absorbent than other fabrics and most are blended with cotton so there is no need to top it for improved absorption.

I think we started ours with the two bags of 200 and ended up getting 9 bags total. 9 makes it really full but not necessarily needed. I would say maybe 4-5 bags is plenty since most of the work is getting them out. :) Hope that helps
