This will be a great user of all the spoils of thread that can't be used because there's non enough on them except to baste. Not to mention those fancy stitches we all have on our machines that we never use.
I do not care for abstract art, but this is a WOW! So inspiring, the wall is the perfect space, the room makes it and it makes the room. Congratulations.
Great idea....I could probably make 100+ of these. Those damn scraps we can't part with. Definitely have to give this a try. So maybe fabrics that are just scraps that I think I'll enjoy having around me on the wall for sure. Thanks for the suggestion and the video to inspire so many of us😊😊
Dollar Tree has some wood glue that sets up quick and it is durable. You will find it in the automotive section. I love your fabric art. I like and create abstract art. I have shared some of my paintings on your Instagram.
I love most abstract art, my husband is an artist and I love his paintings. I am recently getting back into sewing and just yesterday I put all my scraps (not a lot) into seperate bags. I might try to sew them together to make a piece of fabric to cut out another garment. I could also get him to help me design something as he has such an eye for color. Anyway its the journey that is so good for the mind.
Gorgeous piece. I have fabrics from a Netherlands vacation to make a large wall art piece. It’s in the planning stage. Yours looks so organically created. I see your favorite sheer top scraps. Happy holidays to you.
That looks fantastic! It really brings together your space. I could imagine with how long that must have taken to piece everything together, you must have wondered if it was going to be worth it. It looks fantastic, so it definitely was! I appreciate that you made the frame as well and showed us how to do it. Great job!
This is beautiful and so so creative! I feel so overwhelmed by the idea of using all my scraps but the general flow of this, and leaning into the process, seems so approachable. No lining up seams. No perfection. Just following what feels right. Wonderful job and thanks for sharing!
This is absolutely stunning!!! I am new to your channel. Thank you RUclips for suggesting this channel! Watching you sew clothing has made me want to give it a try again at 52 years old. I had sewn my own prom dress back in 1988 but after that I basically would just hem my pants. 10 years ago I started quilting and I have beautiful scraps that I now know what I am going to do with them. That is after I clone a pair of pants.😜
Wow! Your project turned out great! I absolutely love the way you merged the colors in your room in a way that unifies your art with your space. I have no idea why, but looking at it is reminiscent of standing in a clearing in the woods…to me anyway. Congratulations. Not only are you very creative, but I love the way you executed the mounting and framing.
Definitely team abstract! This turned out so good, and this was exactly the kind of video that I needed to watch. Been working with fiddly fabrics lately and it was so relaxing to watch you play with scraps and just let the magic happen!
I was reminded of a use I was going to try with fabric scraps... I thought they would work for stuffing in small projects, which would make them washable. Maybe small pincushions, pillows, stuffed animals, dolls, etc. I have seen some people make small fabric cases for needles or sewing kits... some scraps would work for that. Maybe coin purses. Somewhere there are machines that shred fabrics (like thrift store rejects) and them make them into things like rags or something... not sure if that is a home craft option... haha.
Amazing!! I really love how you did the framing. I get so intimidated by any kind of “woodworking” project, but you made it seem very doable! I did a patchwork project a couple months ago and I also found that it was really meditative and satisfying. I definitely want to try this!
Oh, I was **this close** to going out and buying a canvas because I accidentally cut the wood the wrong dimension and was immediately overwhelmed 😅 but it was actually so easy to make, so it worked out!
I love this art piece. Its such a great way to just keep adoring your favourite fabric pieces. Really well done and inspiring for others to do something creative ❤❤
Love this. I think it is awesome. I don't care for abstract art when it comes to painting/drawing, but I adore this type of fiber art, and the concept of using what would otherwise go to landfill. Beautiful job!
I absolutely loved this video, Casey! It's been one of my goals this year to create some wall hangings with fabric scraps, and there are so many different approaches to doing this. This was really inspiring and giving me a lot of ideas. I love your art piece. It works perfectly for the space. Thank you for sharing! And it was fun to see your cute little doggo! ❤
You and your puppy are both adoptable, I too, am an artist. Prefer painting abstracts. Your dog coat is exactly like. I made years ago for my small dog. This dog is a lab and your measurement tutor is a blessing for me.
I Love It!! Turned out Great. I do Abstract art all the time. I paint over old Thrifted Paintings all the time. I have used Silk Scarves & Scraps of Fabric in Frames. Colored Formica Chips😅👍 were all the rage back in the day. A collection of 20 years of Fun Graphic Hotel Keys from Traveling for work. I have a collection of Leather upholstery samples I still am trying to see what I want to do with them. My entire house is filled with Abstract Art, and is usually something I made.
Love it! I've made many mixed media art pieces with paint, fabric, paper (paint chips too!), natural materials, thread, yarn etc. I am intuitive with the process so I never know what it's going to become...it's mainly about the process but I have created some pieces I hang on my walls. Thanks for sharing your process! I definitely got some new ideas.
Great job! I love that you created your own big art from scrape fabric! I’ve been wanting to play around like this but haven’t yet. Your video has inspired me to do it!
Just the perfect inspiration for me! I’m returning to sewing after 40 years and creating wall art is wonderful, especially because it doesn’t need to fit me! I love abstract art! Thank you so much, Casey.
Very nice! Your choices of fabric scrap colors go very nicely with the pillows and such in your room, so your art piece doesn't look like a hot mess on a frame. 👍🏻 Would be a fun idea to make a piece for a sewing/craft room also.
Thank you for sharing your process! What a creative outlet. I learned only recently that I don't care to wear many florals but do love to wear abstract design. Your project is so inspiring and I think it came together beautifully. I now have a project that I will go to as the short days of winter and lack of sunshine tend to bring me down. Very exciting.
I am so impressed once again by your creativity and your ability to get things done! It’s awesome! You have inspired me to use up what I have and make something beautiful for my home!
Thank you for sharing and inspiring us. I am definitely going to try this, even making my own frame too. Your piece looks amazing - the colours and style are great in your room. ❤
I have no issue with abstract art and I really like abstract print fabrics! It was great to see you use your scraps in a creative way. I still use your method of sewing scrunchies when I have long offcuts left over! 🧵🪡
What a fantastic idea. I love Abstract Art and have so much material scraps in my stash. I feel I have been waiting for something like this to help me with another project. A big thank you. x
Love it! It is so great to have a use for fabric scraps and to let yourself be creative. Love the seams, raw edges and visible stitches. I have a lot of quilting cotton so maybe an abstract quilt is in my future. Great project!
Loved your abstract art. I’ve just had a fabric purge as had so much and just had to thin it down. But now I’m thinking could have used for some artwork. Will use some other pieces. Thanks so much.I loved your piece
This is perfection! I love it! I am planning the same kinda thing for couch cushions. I have a bunch of denim that I picked up at a thrift store by the pound and cut it all up for patch working. I realized I needed cushions so instead of going to a homesense kinda place, I decided to make my own. I really love the zigzag idea and will incorporate that into the work. I just need to go to Micheals and get some stuffing. Thanks for a great video ❤
Love abstract art, but I'd rather direct my sewing efforts into clothes at the moment. It's so creative though - my mum once cut up all my dad's old ties and make them into a small quilt - it was gorgeous.
I have been looking out for your video for a little more than a week now. How cute and creative are you! This is really so cool, inspiration, it looks fabulous! This project was worth the wait. Thank you for sharing. x
@@PatternScout Just thought that you might be interested in these videos done years ago for the PBS series "Craft In America".

This is gorgeous and inspiring! I’m so happy I found your channel. Question: did you seam the pieces together first before you did the zigzag topstitch? Or did you join the pieces with solely the zigzag? Thanks!

This will be a great user of all the spoils of thread that can't be used because there's non enough on them except to baste. Not to mention those fancy stitches we all have on our machines that we never use.
Yes!! I used so many random threaded bobbins on this one just to clean them out.
I am inspired. What a bold and wonderful use of scraps. Be sure to sign and date your art!
The way you fearlessly tackle all your projects, it's obvious you have a MacGuyver gene. This turned out great!
Haha thanks! I can definitely relate to MacGyver 🤣
I do not care for abstract art, but this is a WOW! So inspiring, the wall is the perfect space, the room makes it and it makes the room. Congratulations.

I really like how your art interacts with green cushions

Thanks! Great idea to use fabrics from your trip!
I really like the finished piece, I find it really invites me in and I get the feeling of entering a beautiful and soothing garden.
That looks fantastic! It really brings together your space. I could imagine with how long that must have taken to piece everything together, you must have wondered if it was going to be worth it.

I have no idea why, but looking at it is reminiscent of standing in a clearing in the woods…to me anyway. Congratulations. Not only are you very creative, but I love the way you executed the mounting and framing.
What a great idea! This is something I never would have thought of doing with my scraps.
I love abstract art, and this piece tells a story!! I love that you left raw edges showing, and connected pieces with a zigzag stitch. Nice job….
And just think about all those decorative stitches your machine has that never get used in our everyday sewing
I’m kind of on the fence about abstract art but I LOVE this.
Yay! Thank you!
Definitely team abstract! This turned out so good, and this was exactly the kind of video that I needed to watch. Been working with fiddly fabrics lately and it was so relaxing to watch you play with scraps and just let the magic happen!
Thanks, Paula Jean! This was definitely a very relaxing project and has me thinking of more like this!

I’m a lover of abstract art too! Great art piece you created. Can’t believe you had the patience to do that lol. Kudos to you Casey! Great video. 👏🏼
Thank you! I think being able to slap it all together without too much overthinking it helped, haha :)
Amazing!! I really love how you did the framing. I get so intimidated by any kind of “woodworking” project, but you made it seem very doable! I did a patchwork project a couple months ago and I also found that it was really meditative and satisfying. I definitely want to try this!

Thank you, Vicki!
I love this art piece. Its such a great way to just keep adoring your favourite fabric pieces. Really well done and inspiring for others to do something creative ❤❤
Thank you so much!
Love the way your artwork turned out and am inspired to create my own. Thanks so much.
WOW!!. I think this is GORGEOUS!! you did a great job. Thank you for sharing.
I LOVE this!!!! I love abstract art and this is BEAUTIFUL!
Love this piece! Abstract art has a different approach and you tackled it beautifully!!
I am a lover of abstract art, and I think your piece looks awesome on the wall.
I think they call that a crazy quilt!
Love this. I think it is awesome. I don't care for abstract art when it comes to painting/drawing, but I adore this type of fiber art, and the concept of using what would otherwise go to landfill. Beautiful job!
Thank you! Yes, it felt good to use scraps that I can't really use for many projects!

@@PatternScout are interested in creating a patchwork skirt or vest. I have seen both on Amazon.
I love the fabric abstract art. In a way it is like a quilt because some do applique and this reminds me of that. good job

I love, love, love it. You’ve given me so many ideas for my new home. Thank you.

Hi. Awesome. I also enjoy textures, etc. It is harder than people think. Thank you. I enjoyed this. Something to think about...
Very nice! Your choices of fabric scrap colors go very nicely with the pillows and such in your room, so your art piece doesn't look like a hot mess on a frame. 👍🏻 Would be a fun idea to make a piece for a sewing/craft room also.

It is my favorite type of art!
I love it!
Your art is really nice and looks perfect in your house. Brava!
Thank you! 😊
Really inspiring. Looks great and gives me the confidence to do something similar

Love that idea!
