Hi, I just saw your video on attaching fringe. Thank you so much for taking it very slow on the instructions, it help me very much on how to attach fringe.
I love your Videos. I almost didn't watch this because fringe is not in my future, but I really found this fascinating. Your explanations are so easy to understand. Thank you!
Last December, I worked with fringe for the first time. My daughter needed a gown for Dicken's Christmas Carolers mass, where the choir had to dress in costume. I used McCall's 6420 pattern. I used fringe around the upper sleeves and around the waist. On top of the fringe, I then sewed a band of rhinestones on top of the fringe. Oh, I forgot to mention. It was all hand sewn. . . .it took me 8 hours! However, it did add to the dress.
I'm making a flapper dress for my sister's fancy dress party, I've bought the fringe and it's come with a traveling stitch all the way around the fringing, is there a correct way to remove it!
I love using fringe when I make pillows but, I have trouble with getting the corners of the pillows correct. What can I do to correct this problem. Thank you. I love all of your videos.
Birdie Ellen Beris hmmm...I haven't tried this so you might want to try it on a sample, but it's how I get sharp mitered corners on my binding. As you're getting close to a corner, stop 1/4" away from it, then sew from that point directly to the corner. Cut your threads, not the fringe, and refold fringe braid so it's going 90 degrees in the next direction. Then continue sewing. Before flipping your pillow rightside out, you may want to trim those corners.
IF YOUR TOPSTITCHING THE FRINGE DOWN ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FABRIC, I'M WONDERING HOW THE INSIDE LOOKS. WOULD U LINE THE INSIDE, AND IF SO, THEN HOW IF THE SKIRT IS ALREADY SEWN UP?
+MONIKA MZ. MARIE if you use a thread color that matches your fabric in your bobbin, it won't stand out too much. Yes, you can also do a lining. The lining is usually attach at the waistline and you can pull it up through the top of the skirt when you're doing the fringe. When you're done, put the lining back in place and use french tacks at the hemline to keep the lining down.
+LarnieRadek I would do the lining first. But pull it up over the top of the skirt to do the fringe. After the fringe is in place, you can then put the lining back down inside the skirt and tack it at the hemline.
I have super long fringe which I'm adding to a dress, but I'll be cutting off around one metre and would like to use the loose pieces somehow. Any advice as to how to go about it? Maybe using binding? But how would I get it even?
hmmmm.....that would definitely be tricky. If it were me, I'd buy fabric tape, place it on the wrong side of some ribbon, stick on the fringe and then sew in place. After sewing, you can trim the bottom to make it look more even, but I honestly don't know if this would work.
What about garments that have both ends of the fringe attached? Is that a special fringe that has tape on both ends or do you somehow attach the free end?
Do you mean that the fringe is bordered by a flat braid on each side? From my understanding. You just sew on one side and then can cut the other braid off so that the fringe can then move freely, (if you want to use fringe the traditional way). I hope that helps!
No, I mean the opposite, getting the fringe to not fall with a free edge but be attached on both ends :) Some lingerie uses require that. I've never seen fringe in a store that has flat braid on each side so I assumed there is some way to sew the ends without the braid :) Maybe it's necessary to do some hand sewing (pick up each one with a needle and attach it where needed)... Thanks!
Christina Guo hmmm....is your top made out of tshirt fabric...you might want to make your own fringe out of knit or recycle another tshirt. I'm afraid it might not turn out with regular fringe. If you don't stretch your fabric, then the fringe will not allow the garment to stretch and you might not be able to get it on. If you do sew and stretch then it might distort the garment and look kind of odd.
It can definitely be added to curved areas, but works best if it's more a gradual curve. Honestly, you have to use a lot of pins, but the braided trim at the top should have enough give to allow going around the curve just as you would do a straight edge. The triangle is a lot more challenging. You can try to fold the trim to create a mitered corner, but I don't know how bulky that would make it. And easier option would be to cut the trim and do it in parts, which I'm not sure how neat that would make it look. Definitely add fraycheck to the ends to keep it together. I haven't tried adding fringe to a point so I'm not sure how helpful I can be with this. sorry. :(
@@ProfessorPincushion I no we did try the overlap but it was too bulky, we have like the thicker fringe and a western suede fringe and neither works great on the triangles or circles.. So we're testing the water at the moment to figure it out we did think about doing each side then adding one small peice at the curve.. But not tested yet!!! Thanks so much for the tips and getting back!! Xx
Shirley Rowland I would say this would depend on the content on the fringe. I have seen fringe dyed but I would just try a little try it on little sample of fringe before doing the whole thing to make sure you'll get the color you want.

How the heck you're talking about fringes and calling the Most High, Universe. Smh
Bernie Gurl girl what
You have such a beautiful sewing machine!
I'm making a flapper dress for my sister's fancy dress party, I've bought the fringe and it's come with a traveling stitch all the way around the fringing, is there a correct way to remove it!
This is useful for flags aswell, thank you.

Awww,gonna try this one. Love all your videos :)
Sergio Méndez do it! then post an image of your project on our fb wall. :D I'd love to see how your fringe project turns out.

I am curious why you only do a basting stitch once you put the fringe on?
0JReynolds the basting stitch is being used as a temp stitch to make sure my fringe is good before doing a permanent stitch.

thank you for sharing, please where can i find the fringe to buy
this fringe is from Mood's but you can also find it at any fabric store that sells trim or even purchase it online
Thank you
If I want to sew fringe on a top that is stretchy and is stretched out a little bit when I put it on, do I do it the same way?
Christina Guo hmmm....is your top made out of tshirt fabric...you might want to make your own fringe out of knit or recycle another tshirt. I'm afraid it might not turn out with regular fringe. If you don't stretch your fabric, then the fringe will not allow the garment to stretch and you might not be able to get it on. If you do sew and stretch then it might distort the garment and look kind of odd.
@@ProfessorPincushion so how to you put this type of fringe on stretchy material then?
Anyone have any tips for adding fringes and suede fringes to to round or triangle peices of fabric??
It can definitely be added to curved areas, but works best if it's more a gradual curve. Honestly, you have to use a lot of pins, but the braided trim at the top should have enough give to allow going around the curve just as you would do a straight edge.

This arrived right on time. I'm going to make a flapper dress in the next few days! Thank you so much!!
oh fun! I hope it turns out great :)
Very useful video thank you

I want to add fringe to a Kimono, can you dye it?
Shirley Rowland I would say this would depend on the content on the fringe. I have seen fringe dyed but I would just try a little try it on little sample of fringe before doing the whole thing to make sure you'll get the color you want.
Okay. . I tried to dye a piece but it wouldn't take.. So I'm trying another that has mre cotton in it.
thank you I will try this.
How do you keep the fringe from fraying over time ????
ghettoside21 hmmm...I haven't had this happen yet for me. You can use fray check or clear nail polish to stop the fraying.
Always so informative thank you
Grasias por compartir que crativa eres que Dios te vendiga.
Just Wonderful
On what kind of materials should sew the fringe?
bestie this was useless..... I need to get the fringe along a seam. Literally anyone could add fringe to the edge of a garment I'm crying
Thanks so much. Good jobs.
