Right! I love this video because it is informative, but mostly because of your personality! Seems like many sewers have this aloof attitude, like they have to present like an “Authority.” I enjoyed your approachability and your humor. You are the real deal! Thank you!
Thanks Debbie, I appreciate the feedback, so glad to hear that! :)
Thank you for your video..so helpful learning different interfacing and stabilizers.
Glad it was helpful!
Luv your video. Have not made any bags yet but interested in doing so. I am doing lots of research which leads me to interfacing. Thanks for your info.
AWESOME! But a warning....bag making is VERY addictive! 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😁😘
Ahhh finally an Aussie you tuber! (No insults to international you tubers intended) it’s just so good to have someone here to help guide us aussies through the minefield of stabilisers. Thanks😊
LOL yes I know what you mean! :)
LoL i wish i had galpals like this to sew with. Even makes the rather dull topic of interfacings a little more fun :p
Thank you! :)
your energy is so refreshing thanks a billion for sharing
Thank you so much! :)
What a fun person you are! Thank you for the video. Here in India we don't have any of these brands, obviously, but I have been experimenting with all sorts of local varieties, and it really helps to see what the thing I'm substituting for is supposed to look like or do.
Thank you! I am so glad you found the video fun and I am pleased it is helpful to you! :)
Thank you Chris. I've made a couple of bags and as I progress to more "advanced" bags I got totally confused about which interfacing - this list is a real treasure.
AWESOME! I am glad you found it helpful Susan! :)
Thank you, really helps in the confusing world of interfacing. I just recently got some woven interfacing plus the light & heavy Decovil from Barb. Added a steam press to the hardware to get proper adhesive so now I am making bags that I am really proud of. Love your mask & pj's...
That's AWESOME! I hope you will check out my patterns too....and join our facebook group...there is a lot of bag making fun and inspiration going on in there....we are one big happy bag making family! :)
Lol they are my favourites too, though here in England I buy Vilene G700 as my woven fusible. I thought it was just me who had to smirk or snigger every time I pulled out my Stiff Stuff, it’s a relief to know I’m not the only one!
LOL Gotta LOVE that Stiff Stuff! 😂😂😂
I have pseudobublbar affect. Meaning laughing and crying for NO reason. When I get an attack I can get silly. Reminds me of your nice sense of humor.
LOL thank you (I think! 🤣🤣🤣)
THANK-YOU for this video!!! I will keep this bookmarked for future reference! Been confused by which interfacings to use, as I do NOT use patterns. I am a create-it-as-I-go kinda sewist, and have had fantastic results, after researching the how-to-put-it-together concepts. However, I am often making changes (fabrics, sizing, etc), that would affect which interfacing to use. Watching you handling them helps to explain how they would work. Great videos!
AWESOME! I am happy to hear that it has helped you! :)
This video was so informative. Thanks for sharing your experience with all the interfacing. Love your sense of humor. Look forward to your other videos.
Thank you Dianne! :)
God bless your video! thanks!
Thank you too!
Bless you! Just started making bags and was so confused to which type i needed.
AWESOME! So glad it helps! :)
I love your slice of humor! Thank you for the info, get a good nights rest!
LOL Thanks Anita :)
I wish I had found you 2 months ago. This is one of the better videos about stabilizers I have found. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Yet another fun informative video. What a bright lovely lady you are. Love all your videos etc.
Thanks Georgina!~I appreciate your lovely comments! :)
I think interfacings is the one thing about bag making I've researched the most. Trying to match up the UK equivalent has been a slog. Got myself samples in a file now along with where purchased. I started out with my Epiphany using iron on, but since I’ve discovered woven, what a revelation. The stiff stuff is good too, if only I could remember where i bought mine..Thanks for video. Like your pj’s.
lol Thanks....I like my Pj's too...they are comfy! ;) Samples in a file is such a GREAT idea!!
samples in a binder! What an awesome idea!
Great idea
Thank you Chris, just watched several of your videos and I can say that I've made ALL the mistakes, I've made quite a few bags, mostly copies from RUclips, or my own designs, none have been very professional looking. I set myself a goal that if I could make a carpet bag like Ralph Lauren's then I would have achieved success. You have inspired me with the interfacing video and you make me actually WANT TO BUY a pattern. Now my trouble will be sticking to it, I always seem to want to make my mark on it. I also like to upcycle, and buy bags from charity shops for their hardware interesting stitch design jumpers and cardi's all for bags, and I once found a brand new pair of leather Jean's, from which I made a lovely Xbody bag. Now I've had the interfacing/stabilisers tutorial I, hopefully will make a better job. (I'm a dressmaker primarily.)
Christina I hope you will join our facebook group....there is a ton of inspiration and also help available in the group should you ever need it. facebook.com/groups/ChrsWDesignsPatternsGroup As for mistakes, we ALL make them and anyone who pretends they do not is just....well...pretending! LOL You can't call yourself a bag making expert until you have made ALL of the mistakes....hopefully only once BUT....sometimes more than once EEK! lol! Not sticking with a pattern is COOL and a great way to put your mark on things BUT I do recommend you make a few different styled bags following a designers instructions and requirements lists first... just so you get familiar with everything....after that the SKY is the limit! Recycling being such a FUN was to create unique bags! :) ....BUT.....I have to say that most free patterns just will not go into the level of testing and detail you will get with a paid pattern. My paid patterns for example, take months of work and testing to make sure the design 'works'.....Lots of tweaking to make sure they are quality and they are not released until they have been made successfully by at least a dozen different testers, who catch any little errors I may have overlooked myself. Unless you are already wealthy and don't need money to live on from your designing, its just not possible to do all of that work for a free pattern or free video. xx
OMG - where have you been all my sewing life? This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Each bag maker seems to list different supplies and I never really know if I can/should use what I already have. So I end up with quite a collection. And you’re right, some products are quite wrinkly, and I don’t quite care for them. Now I have more confidence in switching to others. And will be using more non-fusible interfacing. New subscriber here!
AWESOME!
Thank u for that couse not all countries has those was wondering what else can be used apart from the paper pellon that has crack look to it havin that ramful look so happy for this info thanks amillion
Thank you, I am glad you found it useful! :)
Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!!! As a newbie sewer, I've been so lost when it comes to interfacings and stabilizers. I've been using the Pellon 71F in my tote bags and didn't realize about the wrinkle factor (fortunately, they're just for me). I will definitely be experimenting now.
AWESOME! Experimentation is the best way to learn! :)
Thank you sooo much for all this important information. The chart you made was an excellent idea and I'm sure many will be referring to it! I love your videos and your great sense of humor!
Thanks so much! :)
once I tried woven fuse there was no going back! superior product!
I certainly think so!!
This was very helpful as I'm about to make a lined planner cover bag for my sister. 🍷
AWESOME! I am glad you found it useful! :)
One of the best sewing videos I have watched! Obviously, you planned this ahead and delivered it in a fun and effective way! I came to this from a facebook post you made. Thank you! You are charming!
Thank you so much! :)
you are a breath of fresh air
LOL Awwwwww thank you! :)
I am glad i subscribed to you email, it told me about this video, and oh my i didnt even know about half of this! Thank you bunches!
AWESOME! You are welcome! :)
THANKYOU FOR THAT LIST I AM NEW TO ALL THIS AND I WAS FINDING THIS ALL CONFUSING
So glad you have found it helpful! :)
Very helpful video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
my pleasure! :)
Thankyou Chris, for this video. I always wondered which of the Decovil weights I was getting from you!! Lovely to see your beautiful face too. I'll have to go looking for your other videos now! Keep u the good work.
Thanks Eileen! :)
Enjoyable to watch! I used foam place mats for my structured hand bags. I get them and the dollar store or dollar tree in the states.
Thank you! AWESOME! Are the foam mats stiff or soft and you you use them for the base or in other areas too?
@@ChrisWDesigns They are more like the foam you would purchase to make a bag but they do have a stiffness to them. Dollar store has some that are more like plastic and some that are slightly softer and they have a designs on them. So you do still need to use interfacing to block the pattern being seem on light fabrics. I think they worked pretty good. It did save me a few bucks.
AWESOME!
@@ChrisWDesignsThey are actually foam place mats I am currently working on a barrel bag and its working so well I might make two.
Thank you! Very informative and helpful!
Glad you found it useful! :)
I wish your info could have option to use Dropbox also. It required Box so I downloaded & setup account but now must look into how I can print from it- it's not readily seen. That's a lot required as I attempt to print 2 pages for your pdf of interfacings- I think that was the topic! The mind is so fragile when going in unexpected directions! Thanks for making it available. I'm in US & hoping it's applicable here. Enjoy your videos & patterns, keep it going!
Strange! You should be able to save and print the PDF without making an account!
I would love a video on the Factotum bag to be and added in the purchase.
I WISH I had the time to do that!!
Thank you so much for these video because in a tutorial said I need Peltex F1 and Pellon 808 but in my country is not possible to buy it. And I was looking for a similar one. Decovil 1 and Decovil Light its what I usually can find easy. I doesn’t like wrinkles in my bags because of the wrong interfacing 😱🤦♀️ I appreciated you so much this information.
Glad I could help! 😊
Hi Chris! Glad you posted this video - I just started making wallets last month and had some terrible luck with a few products. I will try that decovil and stiff stuff - and maybe even woven fuse - but I think I have something VERY similar and love it --so when that is running low - I will try that one. Love your videos- keep them coming!
hmmm looks like some was crossed out - redacted ? lol - anyway - can read it - just odd :D
Yes that is odd....Oh well...yes I can still read it lol yes unfortunately there are some dodgy products out there so it does help to know just what is "good stuff".....stiff or not! lol
Very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
You are welcome! Glad you liked it! :)
Ooooo I hope I can find some of these in south Africa!
I hope so too! :)
FYI I bought decovil at Joannes fabrics in the US a week ago. First time Ive seen it and eager to try out. This may be old news though. :-)
Thanks for sharing....I am sure not everyone knows that yet! ;)
wonderful so enjoyed seeing this it has helped a lot.
Awesome! :)
Thx for that useful info on different interfacings. Is it possible to demonstrate a few of the wallets you make. .i also make my own handbags. ..but always up for new ideas..thx again and highly appreciated ..kind regards
I have a video trailer for the Penny Inn in the trailer section.
Thank you.
🌹
My Pleasure! :0
Thanks for the info.
You're welcome!
You’re a lifesaver, thank you!
Glad you found it hwlpful! :)
Great video. Thank you.
Thank you Barbara! :)
Great information. Thank you!
Thank you! I am glad you found it useful! :)
Thank you so much! I thought it was just me being petty about how Pellon interfacing gets hopelessly wrinkled
Nope....Its a shocker! LOL
Your so funny! I Love Your Videos!
Thank you! :)
Hi Christine, I've just found your video (great help thank you) and I went to your website and you are no longer stocking interfacings. Could you please point me in the right direction to purchase soft and stable and decovil 1 heavy? Google has been a bit overwhelming. Oh also, I'm in Australia. Thank you
Hi Denise....I do still sell WovenFuse Interfacing.... and I have a small qty of the Soft & Stable as well (Under notions) atm.....For Decovil 1 try Voodoo Rabbit...they also have the Soft & Stable i think, so you can combine shipping there and save a few $$. Hope this helps!
Ever thought of a career as a stand-up comedian? Hilarious Chris. Thanks for the video.
LOL....nope....but thank you! :)
Only if she got out of her pjs
Hard to source decovil here in Canada as well ...And now with the tariffs on almost everything from the US to Canada it makes it hard to purchase through the US ...
Jayne have you tried Emmaline? I think she stocks it now BUT I am not 100% sure...
Wow just checked and she does ...you're a genius :) ..I get all my hardware from her ...Thanks Christine xo
AWESOME! No worries....glad I could help!
Hello ~ New Sub here, Liked and hit the bell! You are SO refreshing and funny! Thank you for your video, I look forward to many more!
AWESOME! So glad you enjoyed my videos! :)
Thanks for the info! Very helpful. Can you say “Snazzy Slouch” yet? 😂😂😂🤪
Haha.....
I have used shapeflex 101 and I like the feel of it but it’s so pricey. I recently got to know Barbara from gotinterfacing.com and she is a wonderful lady! I have her interfacing but I haven’t had a chance to use it yet due to sickness. You can’t beat the price though. I love your videos! I smile through each and every one! Thank you!
Awwww thank you Wanda....I hope you feel better soon and can dive into your WovenFuse...you will LOVE it!
Great video. What’s the better interface/stabilizer for leather?
It really depends on the affect you are after. Structured or floppy etc as well as the type of leather you are using.
Hi Chris I was wondering if you fuse Decovil light to your fabric do you still need the foam pieces for the Epiphany?
Hi Giselle....sorry for my slow reply. I would use some fleece on top of the Decovil Light for the body instead of foam.
thank you Christine, very helpful. not sure what the 'dropbox' is though or how to access it?! Another question for you.
Dropbox is a cloud storage service, which means you can copy your files to the cloud and access them later if you have a computer failure or if you're using a different device.
Love all the information. Thank you! I did order some of the decovil. I know this item is received flat when shipped. Is there a special way to flatten all the kinks so I can then keep it rolled up in a tube until I use it? Thanks!
Hi Renee....just roll it and store....you don't have to do anything to the kinks. I find they just disappear when you fuse the product but I wouldn't like to leave it folded for months in case the folds do become more permanent with time.
ChrisW Designs Thank you!
No worries! :)
What would you recommend for a knitted clutch? This was a very informative video.Thank you!
You could stabilise it primarily with Wovenfuse and if you feel it needs extra body, you could add fleece on top of the WovenFuse. Forextra stability you could add Decovil or Peltex instead of fleece but it depends on the design and size of the clutch.
@@ChrisWDesigns Thank you so much for your recommendations much appreciated. I will report back and let you know how it turned out.
Hi! And, thank you for sharing. I have a question about non fusible interfacing. If the fabric isn't connected to the interfacing, what to keep it from making wrinkles?
Usually you attaching it to your pattern pieces around the edges, with either zigzag or straight stitch, within the seam allowance. That will hold it in place while you construct your bag. :)
What was the blue base you used in the shopping bag. It looked quite sturdy and I would not feel I had to cove it with fabric. Thanks
A plastic cutting mat from Aldi! :)
Brother ...... total jaw slammers!! No one seems to know when to give it a break.'''
I'm not sure what you mean Jessie??
Where in Sydney can I get the fusible soft and stable foam interface? Any shops you can recommend?
Hi Barbara....sorry, I am not familiar with the shops in Sydney however you can get supplies in my website shop at www.chriswdesigns.com.au I hope that helps!
Hi Chris I hope you and your family are safe and well😊 just wondering are there aussie online companies that sell some of these stabilisers? The post from US is not worth it for me as I don’t buy I. Huge amounts, hoping you can help me, take care melita😊
Try Betty Box Pleat or VooDoo Rabbit! :)
ciao, ti amo
Thank you! :)
Who makes the woven fuse and where cam you buy it
Wovenfuse is not branded by a larger company such as Pellon....It is sourced directly from the manufacturer to cut out the middle man and keep prices down. You can find out where to get it at: www.wovenfuse.com
What is the best interfacing for crochet work with fine thread.
Hi Pamela.....I am sorry but I have no idea as I do not do crochet type work which requires interfacing so I am not able to advise you on that.
helpful..thanks
You are welcome! :)
Such a fun girl😂
Thank you
I can not print the interfacing guide
Hi Patty....Are you using a mobile device? Please try downloading and printing from a laptop or desktop.
Can I use overlock ?
you could overlock but I guess it depends on what you are making as to whether you need to or not!
Thanks so much for all this great info! Just visited gotinterfacing.com and ordered some Decovil. Can’t wait to try it. Love your videos!
Sorry I missed this earlier! I bet you LOVE the Decovil! Its such an awesome product!! :)
can a white felt cloth use for interfacing for bags and wallets???
You may be able to substitute felt in some places that may require fleece. It would depend on the design and effect you are after.
What sewing machine were you using?
A Bernina 550QE LOVE it!! :)
Where I can find the video or the pattern for the Chloe bag?
Hi Marcia, you can find it here: www.chriswdesigns.com/collections/sew-sell/products/chloes-court
Don’t need them when using veg tan leather!! 😉
Good to know!
