Making a Constellation Quilt with a Haptic Lab Pattern
I love how this quilt turned out, but getting there was no walk in the park. Hand quilting is a marathon and as this was only my second time attempting hand quilting, many mistakes were made. Also, glow-in-the-dark thread is the worst...and yet I would still choose it again, because the effect is pretty neat.
There are many ways to make a thing and this is just the way I have found works for me.

Making a Quilt Coat
Просмотров 3,2 тыс.3 года назад
It's a blanket you can wear! My mother gave me an unfinished quilt that has been hanging around her house probably from before I was born, and asked me to quilt and finish it. However instead of making it into a boring blanket I wanted to try to make a coat with it (with her permission of course). Not shown in the video is the day I spent trying to alter a raglan t-shirt pattern into a pattern ...
Making a Leatherbound Notebook
Просмотров 763 года назад
I had wanted to make a notebook for my sister as a Christmas present...that didn't happen. Thankfully birthdays exist and I decided to make a more determined attempt this time. It was all fun and games until I got to the leather. When I tell you I struggled with this one, I mean I STRUGGLED with this one. The leather was too thick, I cut through it many times trying to thin it, I did not do the...
Making Homemade Paper (and a quick notebook)
Просмотров 963 года назад
Just like my fabric scraps laying around, I have kept my paper scraps as well. I think in my mind, I was going to use them to print on, but I don't know what I was thinking, because the scraps are too small. So I made paper out of paper! I had a lot of fun with this project. I added small pieces of tissue paper to some and I cut up some thread (also scraps from past projects) for others. The po...
Making a Braided Rag Rug
Просмотров 97 тыс.3 года назад
I have had a large bag of fabric scraps and old clothes hanging around in my closet for a while now, just accumulating more and more scraps over the years. The intention was to use them for a project such as this, and I've finally done the thing! The end result was a bit wonky and kind of an awkward size. But overall I am happy with it, and I love how colorful it is! There are many ways to make...
Making a Felt Pin Banner with crochet trim
Просмотров 1483 года назад
I purchased a cute enamel Sasquatch pin (he's holding a book!) from one of my favorite places, Powell's Book Store, and they needed a home. I was wary to start poking holes in my clothing and bags, so I decided upon making a pin banner to display my pin, and future pins. There are many ways to make a thing and this is just the way I have found works for me. Crochet pom pom edging tutorial: rucl...

    Anyone else having trouble with the rug puckering I m making a circle rug out of my recently deceased boyfriends t-shirts for my son and myself. I'm sewing them by hand and they were going pretty good until I had to fold them to bring them with me to work so I could work on it there and I was using my iron on steam setting but it started to puckering and bend and it isn't coming back to flat. Grrr

      sounds like you shrunk the fabric with the hot steam! it should be okay. just keep going or unravel it a bit to loosen it. it will be wonderful once it's done

    Omg. This is all genius all the way. Super appreciative of how you just move along! Which is the BEST LESSON! Just DOING it is always a prize! I have made my own book press, but actually squealed when I saw your genius sewing frame! I have kitchen chairs that would serve that need and am very excited to give this a try. SO glad to have stumbled upon your channel!

  • @allonsy9808
    @allonsy9808 Год назад

    Love this tutorial and the music is charming! I have what is probably a dumb question, but if you wanted to make it more rectangular than square, would you start of with a longer first...overlap (not sure what that's called--the first two "rows" of braid that you zigzagged together at 3:01)? Or would that just make a bigger square? Oh! And I love how to continue a length of fabric without having sew them. Nice and efficient! Thank you!!

    @quitethesoph3558 2 года назад

    I love this tutorial! I always thought these rugs would be harder to make. May I ask though, how much yardage of braiding did you use and what was this rug finished size? My daughter is asking me to make her one like this for my granddaughter in a very specific space and I'd like to make sure I have enough fabric. Thanks!

    • @allonsy9808
      @allonsy9808 Год назад

      I have the same questions! It's such a great project, but I need to know if I have enough fabric scraps. I'd definitely like a finished project that is at least as big as hers. So nice!
