Oh my gosh...your video is so helpful BUT the best part is your sense of humor. I don't think I've ever laughed out loud watching RUclips. You rock sister
haha, thanks, I don't think anyone, especially my family has ever said I rock!!!! That's awesome...I was always the kid that sewed like everyone's grandma!
Hint to take or leave it. Soak then wash your towels in vinegar to get sizing and chemicals out. This will make them absorbent. Also if they have been used and stop being absorbent do the same. Soaps and perfumes get traped in the fibers. The vinegar will strip these out. ❤️
softeners (which I no longer use)really are the worst, they leave quite an impermeable residue, but some detergents have them built in, so avoid them. thanx for reminder.
@@pjfoltz8810 If my dog only piddled on items with fabric softener I could handle that. But my bold dog thinks that any surface is suitable to pee on.😊 From Ireland 🇮🇪🧵
Vinyl Table Cloth with the felt/flannel like back makes a great, cheap, easy, movable design wall. Add some grommets to an edge and use Command Hooks to hang it. Company coming over? No problem, just gently fold it up with your blocks on it and tuck it away. Bonus if you find one with a plaid or stripe on the vinyl side because you can usually see through the thin flannel and it can help you line up your blocks.
I count two aha moments in my sewing career since I picked it back up in 2015. As I struggled to mark dark fabrics, it hit me that I finally found a use for the white pencils in my colored pencil collection. Later, I picked up a tip that the slivers left from a bar of soap, with those thin, sharp edges, also work well to mark dark fabrics. Second - pizza boxes make great containers for squares as I wait to sew enough to combine in a quilt. My local pizza shops have no problem handing me an extra one if I ask if I can buy one in addition to the one holding my leftover pizza. Peace from Ohio …
I JUST LOVE YOUR MOTTO: “GET YOUR SEW ON!” I’m going to put it on my machines and on the wall! I am nearly 76 and raising my late children’s’ children, which makes me even OLDER, ahem- too often l’m stuck in bed or in my chair and not getting done the things l have on my must do list and the things in my brain, heart and head that l WANT to do. I would much rather sew and quilt than do dishes, laundry, cooking -so of course there’s more dishes. “GET YOUR SEW ON” is a perfect motivator for where l’d like to be. We need the QUILTS, pj’s, school and work clothes l ought to be sewing. I Loved your video. Again, Thank You.
I can really relate, not to the kids thank God but to the to the evergrowing to do and projects list. I am 80 and wish I could get clones to do all the things I want to do. Living on SS is a worry but I just bought a new Singer Quantum Stylist and it is such a joy to have an auto threader and auto cutter and to hear the click click of the needle in a new machine. Blessings to you for raising those babies! I can't imagine I can hardly get anything done with all of life's everyday chores!
You're adorable and entertaining...Just came across this video and subscribed. Love all your ideas. I live in Florida and that little wet bag would be great for swim suits. Pack a couple of those and keep your other stuff dry. I would pack those for any trip. Love them. Also would be good for hair products when traveling, just great for any thing when you travel. Thanks for showing us these!
I want to use that tip to hand embroider my name on my Bowling towel. The loops on the top of the Bowling towel make it hard to write on. It’s a great tip.
Putting a drop cloth on the floor in your sewing area is great if you have carpet - catches all the little strings, bits of fabric, and pins, then just use a lint roller to clean. Vacuum cleaners get bound up with thread and pins can damage tubing. Side note: drop cloths also make a nice bedspread that is resistant to puppy claws.
I use a new toilet bowl brush to pick up threads around my longarm. I also have a magnetic “broom” that mechanics use to pick up screws, nuts and bolts, etc. The “broom” part is a magnetic bar about 12” x3” and fits on a handle like a broom.
Have been sewing for 60 years and always love new ideas. I had no idea the dollar store had that many goodies I have never purchased there. Thank you so much.
Dollarama has a wonderful tempered glass cutting matte all marked up with angles and grids. I use for sewing but also as an oil,palette as it scrapes clean so well…
I go to the Dollar store a lot for storage containers. I go before school year starts, cause that's when they have a lot of small storage containers for lunch boxes. They are great for tiny, or small items. Also for wall decorations to use as template shapes. They have wood shapes , metal hanging ones, that are great for appliqué shapes or pot holders. So many things that are definitely great for storing. Next time I go, I will go down thw hardware aisle for that container
I found that the rubbery non-skid drawer liner at the dollar store works great for lots of different uses! It stops the sewing machine & foot pedal from sliding around, it opens jars, keeps things from sliding or rolling off the counters, unrolling it for the length of your bathroom rugs and other scatter rugs,for personal safety & peace of mind! It has many more great uses, I'm still learning about!
The nose wires from the great maskup of 2020 are great to keep spools and the bobbins together. Also a dollar store paper bag with dollar store tape attached to sewing table where the serger thread is falling out works well!!
Any hardware store that has paint or carpet gear also has rotary blades. The Harbor Freight by me has a package of 2 blades and runs around $2. They also have 20% off coupons, online, all the time as well. Harbor Freight has so many sewing room gadgets it's too many to mention them all and their prices are fantastic. Order online or find a store. They even carry kitchen, bathroom, batteries, yard and so many other categories to organize it just make life easier. My friend goes for tools and so do I, hee hee hee. You won't ever be disappointed going there and prices are fantastic.
@@marylouaguirre9250 rotary blades. They have them here with the paint to cut carpet. Go online and look, there's a lot to choose from. Sign up for their free catalog sales. It's worth it
My mom used to put tissue paper under the fabric for a stabilzer when she would do decorative stitches. It would be easier and probaly cheaper (Per sq. inch) than the adding machine tape. Also, I'm glad you added the warning about the frixion pens, I do love them but would never use them to mark for quilting. I knew of someone who shipped a quilt to a show for entry and when it was unwrapped at the show, the quilting lines marking lines where showing. If it's shipped and most likely flown in a cargo area, it WILL come back. Great show!
A couple tips from a longarm quilter with very limited space. I organize my thread cones by color in the pouches of a clear vinyl, over the door shoe hanger, I hung mine on the outside where it's visible and easily accessible. I also hang my large ironing boards on the back side the closet doors, using metal (wreath) door hangers, they're out of the way and easy to get to. I have peg board under the wall cabinets above my (10') sewing station with bright under cabinet lighting. I store my serger, cover stitch, silhouette cutter's, etc. in there when not in use. They're protected from dust and accidents, it keeps my work space open and much tidier.
New sub here from Spokane Valley Wa, except for a little hand stitching, and mending,I haven't sowen, with a machine since I made my square dancing dress at 16,I am now almost 60 as of may1st ,I got me a tiny basic sewing machine to make masks ,then the mandate was lifted,lol I just now have an area to turn into my sewing nook so thank you
We just had an 83 year old woman take our learn to sew class, and now she is making runners and a quilt! It is never to late to learn or to do!!!! I love that!
If your sewing scissors are sacred like mine try placing a small padlock through the grips! No one can use them , just make sure you keep the key safe! Also look for an extendable magnet to pick up dropped pins, and sheets of foam board cut to specific sizes can make folding fabric much easier!
Thank you so much for sharing. Tip on the zip lock bags. If you plan to store fabrics in those plastic air tight containers and you live in a humid area or your home may have humid climate? Keep those containers/bags open or with holes so the fabric can breathe. Flip through the fabric/projects periodically. I purchased a large box of fabric from a flea market. Inside that box was a zipper plastic for sheets, container that contained at least 75 or more beautiful blocks but all had mildew. Please, please be careful to store your fabrics/projects in air controlled climate.
Sewing is a favourite hobby of mine so totally enjoyed this video. As to a $-store hack for all my pre-wounded bobbins; I use a clear pocket shoe organizer unit, secured to the wall that is located within arm's reach of my sewing machine and serger. Like their threads that are stored in clear plastic bins, they are divided/sorted by color family or specialty. (FTR I've been a sewer for 56 years.) P.S.: The shoe organizers also work well for various crafting supply storage. i.e.: Artist brushes, paint pens, glues etc.
Hi. Just found your video this morning & loved it. Very entertaining. I bought a very small, handheld, battery powered “vacuum cleaner” that I use all the time to clean all the fuzz and thread off my sewing table. I also use an old paint brush to clean my sewing machine, but I like makeup brush idea too. I also use the makeup brushes to clean in the corners of my windows when doing spring cleaning. Thanks for the great tips and humor!
I love the small craft mat for a smooth place to craft on! The squishy shelving stuff on a roll is good for the sewing machine foot stability. I use chip clips, too! try adding them to your "clip arsenal!" Love all these ideas for storage and convenience!
@@ooohlaa13 The chip clips can handle more paper in a stack, as they are made to hold the top of a bag of chips rolled down. Clips from Dollar Tree hold a great thickness, but at a thin line. The multi-colored ones in a set of 6 from Wal*Mart, not quite as much thickness, but a good width along the edge, (maybe 2 milliliters, or 1/8 inch) so as not to make an indentation, if that would be a problem. The foot pedal that is a problem to move around, is the pedal on the floor that is pressed with your foot to make the machine sew. Sometimes it wants to slip away from you on the floor, so the soft shelf lining will give it a better cling to the floor, especially if the floor is a smooth surface. I like 3 or 4 thicknesses.
Thanks for all this very useful information. I live in a small town in Atoka, TN, 20 miles from downtown Memphis. I’ve been retired, planned on sewing and I’ve been so busy, I’ve just been able to repair things that people hand me. I love your video so am looking forward to more. I did learn about some new gizmos I need to add to my sewing box in fact I need a larger dewing box too. Janice TNRN, RETIRED.
Great ideas! I’m an organizer too, mark everything and like separate containers. Some things I have never seen before, the organizer items I use and reuse. I always use the plastic bags biggest to smallest for small beads and buttons up to holding all the pieces of a small project together! Great presentation ❤
You are comic & fun to watch. As a seamstress of many yrs I’m a gadget queen too lol, but there’s always a great idea you just don’t know about… yet. Right! I’ll be bk❤
I love your tip ideas I got little baskets at the Dollar tree and zip ties tied them together and got some pool noodles cut them to size to space the cubicles apart and got zip ties from the dollar tree store and I have a whole bunch of cubbies to put projects in or orders that people want made for them
You can store wound bobbins in toe separators that are used for nail polish. The bobbin threads are contained between the toe separators and you can easily see the bobbins. I prewind bobbins with colours I use often and put similar coloured bobbins on one separator.
I put a padlock on my Guggenheins'. I had a friend of a grandson say " awww man, I could pop that lock in a few minutes.. The grandson says " Dude, do you have a deathwish?" . Mr. Pop lock genius looks at me and laughs.. I just look at him..not blinking..not smiling.. the kid swallows.. My grandson says " We should go.."
I really like your light hearted way you did your video. I didn't know that I could get a fabric glide/ slider. I haven't made many quilts. But I really would like to try the free motion quilting. From Ireland 🇮🇪
Use a flat iron for preseing ribbons, small seams or hems, when sewing bias binding they are quick & easy when you are sewing over the binding, etc. I bought a small flat iron as a 'special' when i was buying a handbag ... It's brilliant! No ironing board required ... Also great for small patchwork pieces, etc.
I am a first-time subscriber. I use a lot of different baskets made of plastic to organize my fabrics from the Dollar store. I also use plastic containers with lids to keep fabric dust free and fresh, I am still looking for clear cutting boards that are thin enough to use as templets. I use parchment paper. masking tape, hairbands for ponytails, I use to put around bobbins and treads, those are just a few. I love the free motion quilting tool, nice, I have friction pens of all colors, I love them. You have shared a lot of fantastic ideas thank you.
All the GREAT ideas can’t wait to go shopping lol. Dollar Store is one of my favorite little stores . You are hilarious also keep all these ideas coming.
She is hilarious! I really enjoyed her sense of humor - very entertaining. AWESOME HACKS !! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
I found that Harbor Freight was a grat source for all kinds of goodies for sewing and crafting.
I have 2 hemostats for turning, a small and a large.
This is brilliant! Love the humor as well!

how much vineger
I have used vinegar in the past but haven't lately, time to get back to! I also use Apple Cider Vinegar for hair conditioner!
I never use fabric softener in my towels or pet bedding or washable piddle pads. Dogs will pee on anything with fabric softener( my Chihuahuas do).

Lady, you are a stitch! Loved your presentation! You have gained a new subscriber! Blessings!
I love your personality. And I am heading to the $ store. What amazing ideas. That we spend a fortune on
I just love my friction pens. I use them all of the time!! 20:36
Use a flat iron for preseing ribbons, small seams or hems, when sewing bias binding they are quick & easy when you are sewing over the binding, etc. I bought a small flat iron as a 'special' when i was buying a handbag ... It's brilliant! No ironing board required ... Also great for small patchwork pieces, etc.
Great ideas but I really enjoy host, she is easy to listen to and fun.
I am a first-time subscriber. I use a lot of different baskets made of plastic to organize my fabrics from the Dollar store. I also use plastic containers with lids to keep fabric dust free and fresh, I am still looking for clear cutting boards that are thin enough to use as templets. I use parchment paper. masking tape, hairbands for ponytails, I use to put around bobbins and treads, those are just a few. I love the free motion quilting tool, nice, I have friction pens of all colors, I love them. You have shared a lot of fantastic ideas thank you.
Thank you for the reply. I had to search for the cutting boards too, but they work great!
I like your style and all the useful information.
I love using Frixion pens for sewing.
All the GREAT ideas can’t wait to go shopping lol. Dollar Store is one of my favorite little stores . You are hilarious also keep all these ideas coming.
I think you would be awesome for a sewing friend! Keep everything lively!
