    Good morning Erica, I really enjoy making these, have made several for gifts and it is always one of those things that you give and the receiver has loved them always saying how useful it is. A little tip, I use walnut shells in alot of my crafting and to avoid the shells from possibly getting under the needle...eek..I put a small strip of batting or small piece of stuffing to close them in then sew. Outcome is no frustrating shells in the throat plate.

    Thank you for sharing. Like the stiffener you used to hold it open. Made one similar and used bird grit (pet supplies) for the filler. Added a plastic food container to hold threads and such. Makes it much easier to empty. Depending on size needed to fit inside the bag, insert a Solo plastic party cup style plastic container. Maybe a cut down fruit juice container. Mine fit a quart sized round container that originally held brunswick stew from a church fundraiser.

    Thank you so much Erica, for this wonderful tutorial and written instructions for making the thread catchers. You are an awesome teacher. I followed the cut sizes mentioned in your written description area and everything is on point, I used some Pellon Fusible Interfacing *ultra lightweight* and some nylon webbing to help use up some of the materials I had in my stash. The catcher looks great, thank you

    Just discovered your fabulous video tutorials, Erica! Made myself an interchageable needle case and a thread catcher over the last 2 days and I LOVE them!! Thanks for putting all the time into creating the PDF's and the videos - they're great and very appreciated! God bless your homeschool journey - we homeschooled 3 boys who are now grown, and they are so grateful we did it!

    Love this thread catcher. Fabric is awesome. I made a fabric bin for my scraps and it works perfect. Just turn it inside out to empty and get all the loose threads. I need to make one of these too. Thanks.

What am I supposed to be learning?' and I remembered I needed something to catch all this STRING! 🤪😜 so excellent job! Love listening to tutorials and really relate to needing them lol.

    Hi Erica, I know this video is 5 years old, so you may not read this comment , but, I just made this thread catcher/pin cushion, and mine keeps slipping off my table. I have a suggestion where you sew a piece of rubber shelf liner to the bottom of the pin cushion so it doesn’t slip.
    Otherwise, it’s perfect and I love it. You are a very good teacher.

  • @iamkeyman1
    @iamkeyman1 3 года назад

    Erica , you have got to expand out on how to fold the end of the bag with the turning opening in it with a few more shots of how you are able to get the fabric placed to form the diamond. It took me 2 hours of flipping and twisting before I finally got that end in the position you need to make the corners!!!!! and I am mechanically inclined too !!!!!! if there were just a few more shots showing slowly how to shape that end of the bag tube , it would have been very helpful. The other end I had no trouble shaping into a box for the outer fabric.

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  3 года назад

      Hi, I'm sorry that was confusing. It's called boxing the bottoms and I do it on all of my bag projects, so I may have done it faster on this one. Sorry!

    I love that this is one of those projects that has a big "reveal" at the end, but no clue on how you did the boxing as the video did not show how you achieved the flat diamond shape (PDF doesn't have that process either). I went old school and boxed my corners by cutting out ac square. I really enjoyed making it, thank you

      My quilting store made a bunch of these and put a piece of plastic inside to keep the pins from going through and possibly scratching your furniture. They also put something rubbery on the outside bottom to make it so it didn’t move. I think stripes of hot glue would work. They used boning for the top of the bag. I’ve saved some of the flat strapping from boxes that I will use. I can’t wait to make one of these with a matching sewing machine mat.

    I am making this thread catcher and the dimension for the strap in the description seems to be wrong. When I look at yours compared to the pillow, they look to be the same length. I’ve recut mine to 3.5” x 9.5”. I adjusted the fusible fleece too.

    • @erica_arndt

    Love it! Have a question on the length of the strap...I’m watching the video as I’m assembling it. My strap is WAY shorter than what yours looks like. At 2:09 I paused the video to notice the length of your strap is the same length as the length of your pillow. So just double checking because my strap has turned out a little ‘stumpy’ - is this correct?

    • @lindaholder5039

    • @heidiklukken1884
      @heidiklukken1884 4 года назад

      Linda Holder nothin yet - but I remade the strap same length as the pillow and honestly the size she’s listed in the instructions works as well. The longer strap that I credited hangs the ‘bag’ a little longer off the table than I’d like. But either way, I still love the outcome. Will definitely make more with some of my own modifications. It’s inspired me 👍🏼

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  4 года назад

      Hi, I changed the strap length to shorten it some, the one I did in the video was too long, so follow the pattern instructions :)

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  4 года назад

      See below :) You'll want to follow what the pattern says.

    • @heidiklukken1884
      @heidiklukken1884 4 года назад

      So now I’ve made two, one with the strap cut at 10” (or at least what it looks like on the video) & a second with the strap as written in the instructions at 6”...either way you can’t go wrong! Just depends on your personal preference on how far you want it to hang. The only thing I’ve done differently is sewn most of the pillow’s final seam, filled with shells, then finish that last edge. I must fill it too full because I just can’t get the shells to move around enough to finish the last two sides...just not enough room. So I’ve made it how it works for me - just love the end result! Thanks again for the pattern and instructions!!

    Does the weight of the walnut shells stop it from slipping off the table?

    • @erica_arndt

      Yes, the walnut shells are nice and weighty! Pillow stuffing doesn't hold the weight as well so I would not use that for this project.

    Love this video except I think you accidentally wrote the strap measurements in the pattern incorrect. Mine can out so small then I saw in your video when you laid the strap by the pillow it was the same length so I remade it. Thanks!

    Can you use boning instead of the webbing

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  3 года назад

      I don't see why not?

    • @suebenner5434
      @suebenner5434 3 года назад

      Hope so as our shops are closed as in Ontario Canada and I just have boning. I will let you know, thank you 😊

    My strap looks a lot shorter than yours although I followed the cutting instructions in the link you posted. Did you change yours?

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  5 лет назад +1

      I updated the pattern because I decided the strap was too long in the video! :)

    • @loriar1027
      @loriar1027 5 лет назад +1

      Ok, thanks! Mine came out great! The only thing I did differently was I added a small square of rubbery shelf liner to the back of the pin cushion so it wouldn’t slide on the table top. Thanks for the tutorial!

    Could you use sand for the little bags? The crushed shells are so expensive

    I'm a new viewer. Love your videos. Can this thread catcher be made to sell at a fundraiser? Not sure if it's ok to do it. It is adorable.

    The instructions say the material size for the strap is 3 1/2 x 6. But it looks like it’s at least 10 inches long in the video according to your mat

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  4 года назад

      Follow the PDF instructions, I updated the strap to be a better length.

  • @tamila7381

    My cut pieces do not come out the size you show. Is 3.5" cut as 3 1/2? I don't know how to read 3.5. I'm just a beginner and these instructions are so frustrating I give up.

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  5 лет назад

      Hi, yes 3.5" = 3 and 1/2 inches

    Could you laminate the lining of this project to make it a little easier to get the threads out? 🤔

      Yes, I think you definitely could!
