Did you re color it ?

I have a double closet in my sewing room. I purchased the easy to install "Quik hang" curtain brackets, a curtain rod the length of my closet that fits the brackets. I install on my top molding of the closet. I bought a wide piece of flannel with the grid, sewed a rod pocket. Viola! The rod/brackets do not hinder the opening and closing of my closet because they are above the doors. I can bring the flannel to the side and use a tieback when not in use. Also, I got the wide grid flannel for block placement, but I wish I had purchased a more coordinated flannel to match my decor. But, I still love it.

Use pins to keep your fabric in place.

Love your cats pillow! My design wall is from Fons & Porter. My husband made me a huge wooden frame and stapled the F&P wall to the frame, then screwed the frame into the wall. It worked great. A couple of pieces of PVC pipe might offer enough support on the back?

Thank you for the great video! My sewing room is upstairs and has the slanting ceiling like yours. I only use it for sewing, not a spare bedroom. I used decorative button pins and just pinned my flannel directly to the wall. Looking forward to your next video! 🎃🎃🎃

I like your quilts and the paint chip art. Very pretty.

That is so cool. New sub here. The pipe thingies are called pipe insulation or Armaflex. I desperately need a designwall, too. I bought ceiling mount curtain rods from Ikea to make one, but this will not happen this year. Hopefully, this will be a 2025 project.

You did a fantastic job! Most first projects are things like simple aprons! I’m 78 and started sewing when I was 3. Doll clothes came early and most of that was just playing around with it. The summer after 3rd grade, mid 1950s, so full skirts, I made my first dress and changed it quite a bit. I did have help from my mother,though! She put in the zipper and hemmed it. Speaking of zippers, if you can find a Simplicity Sewing Book, you will have a great reference book! When you get to the stage of needing to sew in a zipper, I still refer to the instructions on the paper that they come in. Save it for reference so you can use other brands afterwards if you want. Good luck. You can do it! I have a feeling that you are quite capable of doing more and enjoying the process!

My aunt is an awesome quilter she goes to a quilt shop in Mass and they us in the shop those plastic table clothes you put on a table with the fuzzy stuff on the back and it works. You can get them for like under 5 each and they tack it to the wall they have it in king, queen, full and twin . Mt aunt said it works great.

I sooooo want one of these moveable board - I dragged my 'handy-man' husband over to watch. Tomorrow I'm off to the shops to buy STUFF! Anne Kennedy - New Zealand

Well done with the design wall it looks great. I love your sewing room. It’s awesome. One thing caught my eye though, the couch. I have been looking for a new couch because our pets have ruined our current couch. I love that your couch cover seems to be staying well in place. I am wondering if you can tell me where you got the couch. Thanks

WOW! really beautiful colors and the computer design! Just WOW!

I used peel and stick corkboard on my bedroom wall. Best decision in 40 years.

please please please share the program!

Pin what won't stick???

Very innovative! I usually just tear longer lengths of flannel to yield a straight line on grain. For lighting, could you attach a long thin clamp style desk lamp to the trolley leg? Amazon has a ton of options. Thanks for reminding me about the 108 in wide flannel, instead of seaming together reg width flannel to cover mine!

I don’t sew big projects, but I watched your video with great interest❤❤

Very clever! I enjoyed all the thought you put into this project! Can't wait to see your next video!

I’ve been thinking about a hexi quilt for a long time…..you’ve inspired me ! Watching from Vancouver Island, BC 🇨🇦🌸

Great vido and advice. I am STILL 😢😢 working on a large grandmother's flower garden. Unfortunately I didn't trim seams enough, used cotton batting and thicker backing. I absolutely love the quilt . However I have to up and down not rock the needle to quilt! I am hopeful to finish with in the year. Rookie hand quilting mistake.

Just stunning. 😮 I appreciate the steps you took and your explanations....not too wordy, thanks! Fantastic work! ❤ 🤩😸

Just found your videos and am loving them!

Oh my gosh, what a fantastic program. Your video came along at the right time, I have 900 Hexi's so far and I've already sewn them into the flower form, but now I need figure out how to put them together. Your suggestions of books is terrific. I subscribed and can't wait to start following your channel. Thank you so much. I'm only 76 but I am really enjoying expanding my quilting, which I've been doing since I was 7. Over these years, I have seen all the changes in quilting and tried almost all of them. I started with hand sewing and went to the treadle my grandmother had. We've come a long way. And isn't it fun?

Прекрасное одеяло. Но меня заинтересовало синее панно в вашей гостиной за вашей спиной. Оно очень красивое, оригинальное. Настолько я поняла, это как бы секционная (или модульная) картина, не так ли? Если это вы сшили такую красоту, может, расскажете нам об этом? Как оформили верх и низ, например. Думаю, многие захотели бы сшить себе такую же картину. Спасибо.

Mavis is beautiful!!

I think I said "WOW" 4 or 5 times throughout this video! Scanning, programming, numbering, sorting... wow! Beautiful work. Watched while I was sorting scraps for a hopeful mini log cabin quilt. I also have a small box of epp hexagons next to my chair. Making them with scraps but no plan. I need to work on a plan. Enjoyed your video!

Hello. Thankyou for sharing. This is the first hexi quilt that I have seen that I actually like. And I have seen quite a few. She is beautiful. You have done an awesome job. Love it! ❤

Wow!❤️❤️❤️

I’ve got a little hexie quilt on the go, 1” patches. The design is single round multi coloured flowers with paths of pale grey, and I’ve found a lovely grey backing that has irregular coloured 1/4” multicoloured dots, but it’s too small a piece. So I’m going to do a hexie pieced border around the backing to coordinate. And I was also wondering about how to quilt it because of the seam allowances. It will get washed a lot and I don’t want them bunching up inside the quilt. So rather than quilt too closely, I stitched all the folds at the corners while folding them over the papers, and those sts remain after the papers come out. Hopefully that will keep the bulk neatly in place and I can quilt a bit wider apart.

Wow, I have never seen such a commitment to a project. Just found your channel.

So Gorgeous

Oh my gosh- ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!!!! I can’t wait for more videos of your progress!!! ♥️♥️🤩🤩

WOW!!! Just WOW!!! I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this video!! So much work! This quilt is a masterpiece!!! 🤩🤩🤩

Beautiful ❤❤❤

Great job..looks cute

Sweetie you're making it way harder than it should be..just chill

What an absolutely beautiful quit!

Thank you for sharing what real sewing looks like! I too have trouble turning fabric right side out. So I do know what rage sewing looks like!

What a great idea to computer scan the hexagons to determine the best design. The wall hanging was beautiful.

Nice white sheet 😂😂. So sorry

I’ve got an elderly machine that I bought at auction several decades ago. It was a high school sewing class reject as well. It sews very well - although has been tended to by someone who reconditions these machines. He’s said “never get rid of the old machines, they’re gold”. But sewing clothes freaks me out. I’ve nearly finished a blouse (new buttonholes) but am hand sewing the neck and the sleeves. Too timid to try using my machine for that. Love the pants dance too. I very much love your channel.

Very handy but I bet that was expensive

I had hoped to make a similar project with a bunch of hexagons I've created but looking at your process, I don't think I'll be able to do it. Still, I've got all these hexagons so I'll have to figure out how to put them together somehow. 🤞May not be as beautiful as yours, but it'll be....done. ☺

Have enjoyed watching you make this quilt, and look forward to seeing the finished product.

try loosening the stitch tension for the waistband, or, use multiple lines of stitches through the elastic

Those curved needles I know of as upholstery needles which is why they are so thick. What a stunning quilt. It’s really beautiful.

Sewing is hard! Thanks for making this intimidating process funny and realistic. You should do a left handed series!

Professor Pincushion is left handed.

My fellow sewing learner,61 here, made my first shorts out of an old sheet. 🎉🎉🎉You are so sweet for sharing. I had a human answering my 1500 questions before actually cutting fabric!🎉🎉🎉 Keep trying!

Is it bad that I like watching you struggle? It’s reassuring that I’m not the only one, lol. But, to let you know, turning the tie is NOT the easiest part. Turning something that narrow makes me talk like a sailor. All I’ve ever used is a knitting needle. One day I’ll get one of those fancy new turny thingys. Btw, making the waistband wide is what made it so ruffled, but using the already finished edge from the sheet was genius!
