    I watched a tutorial before yours and the woman sewed a straight stitch straight across the first 3 rows and then across again in a cross so that she didn't have to do the super tiny first few rounds. It kept everything together so well

    Just found you - do people always ask you if you're drunk? I mean this in a VERY GOOD WAY. I can never seem to stop laughing, and don't even drink at ALL, and people still think I am drunk. It is great to see enjoyment in your life, and your ability to share it with others - that is the key. Happiness IS contagious! I have been a quilter for a LONG time, and got into making jelly roll rugs from my scraps (in lieu of purchasing the "rolls" precut). I LOVE these bowls, and the colored craft rope is on my list the next time I go to the store, Thanks so much for sharing =)

    At last a video that actually tells you the size of the cords yayayaya been looking at videos for four hours, no one talked about the size which is all I wanted to know. Thank you so much. Just had to subscribe, awesome video. Looking forward to checking out you channel to see other projects etc cheers.

    Greetings from the Philippines💖 🇵🇭Wow❣️, I stumbled upon your channel and I can't help but feel inspired. Most of sewing channels are of women sewing, and I am a guy who wants to sew. So seeing this channel made me feel inspired. Im so glad I found this channel. I haven't had the chance to buy my own sewing machine yet but I'm getting there. I've been saving up for the past years but money is tight and I want to help my parents cover some of my school fees so all the money went into grad fees and school stuff. I've seen some of your videos and they are really helpful✨ not only that but all the laughing and positivity is cantagious💫💝. I'm looking forward to see more videos from you. God bless you sir! More power to your channel.💛💛💛

    I have watched a few videos on how to made rope bowls and you were the only one that mentioned the direction in which to sew. I started my first bowl before watching your video and had to abandon it because I rolled the bowl in the wrong direction and had no room to shape the sides. Thank goodness it was just a small base. So thank you

    You are a hoot!!! I made fabric bowls 10 yrs ago and never thought I would again. I lost my book so I found your video. I guess they are back again as my quilt store actually has a class. After watching your video I'm going to revisit the fabric bowl. I love the way you use occasional fabric. Nice touch. Thanks

  • @susanlance8179
    @susanlance8179 6 лет назад +2

    Made lots of these for home, gifts and to sell. Here is a hint for beginning them. Roll several rounds at the bottom like you showed except after you put your pin it sew from on direction in a straight stitch straight across. Then pull out pin. Now do the same from other side. I use matching thread so stiching doesn't show. This will hold your bowl together tightly while you go back and zig zag it. It is a total life changer in making these bowls.

      I have ordered 300 metres of cotton sash cord @ 6mm so when I can pick up at kerbside I will be sooo busy making baskets or bowls ha ha and using my batik jelly roll fabric I bought on 50% off bargain. I will continue to mark time knitting socks 🧦 before my coil work is available.

    I glued the starting circle with fabric glue holding together with clamps until dried, about 3 to 4 minutes. I had no problem, it laid flat and sewed beautifully.

  • @ladonnajohnson8945
    @ladonnajohnson8945 3 года назад +1

    I watched a tutorial where she wrapped around about 5 rounds and then penned it with 2 pens at right angles and stitched a straight stitch across one way and then the other way, making a cross in the middle. It worked really well.

  • @BeatlesFanSonia
    @BeatlesFanSonia 5 лет назад +1

    I made one! I decided to sew the fabric strips together and cover the rope before I started to sew. I’m all thumbs and couldn’t seem to do all those maneuvers at the same time! After the cording was covered, it was so easy sewing it while I watched your video! I love you, ❤️!

    If you just put a big X to start it helps. Then you can make the circle. I love the rope you are using. I will have to make a bowl from that rope. I make cloths line bowls. That you have to cover with fabric. Like this idea better. Thank you.

    Saw link to your blog and your nice colored baskets. So came to watching how you made yours. Ive seen others just sew an X in the beginning. I do like you zig zagged it starting off but wondering if you can just sew a straight stitch X to hold the 4” segment. Then continue with the zig zag.

    @hollywaddell6727 6 лет назад

    Sewing With Nancy (Nancy Zieman) had a young guest on the show who did a good demo of making a rope bowl with plain clothesline cotton and colored thread. The unique thing with hers was that she shortened her zig-zag stitches every so often (intuition!) to make confetti pops of color to keep the bowl interestingly eye-catching. Check it out!!! I, like other commenters, have been putting off starting one of these projects because the totally fabric-wrapped versions that are most common look so tedious. So I like your random (intuition!) placement of fabric wraps. That's so perfect for those few trimmed strips left over from squaring up beautiful quilting cottons ... just can't bear to throw them away. There is a lady somewhere in the New England states who sells GOBS of fabric-wrapped rope bowls/bags/baskets on an Etsy site: 1840 Farm. One last comment --- about using this rather soft, twisted cord vs. true cotton clothesline rope --- the cotton rope is a multi-strand plait (braid) which makes it stiff and will make the sides stand on their own without using a stiffening spray as shown with the soft, twisted cord. The cotton rope can also be dyed or colored with fabric paint for some added color variation.
