    I have made these for a few years now and sell at my local Farmer's Market in Upstate NY, USA. I sell mine for $2 each. This year at my annual Catholic Women's Retreat, I brought the Retreat House 70 of these to use as take away gifts. They were happy to get them. I also make mine from 4" squares and batch sew them, as well. Thanks for sharing this!

    If you make cork or other raw edge fabric projects, these are great scrap busters. No turning necessary. Just cut your shape and stitch. Heart shaped is my favorite.

      I've never tried cork Cherie, but look forward to trying it out some day😀

    Thank you for the quick project. This is what I consider to be a palette cleanser between other projects. That quick and easy feeling of accomplishment prevents burnout.
    Side note, minimum wage is $27?!? In the US it's still $7.25. Absolutely SHAMEFUL! Even with the conversion rate, it's pitiful.

    • @jirup
      @jirup 4 месяца назад +1

      Your $7.25 is worth $10.96 here, the minimum wage here is $23.23 for people 21 and over, under 21 it's $15.23. Still a sizable difference.

      "Palette cleanser". I do like that term Bonnie. It is a shame about the wages. It's so difficult for everyone now😀

    I have a lot of small muslin pieces and a heat press. I think I will do a bunch for the family, personalized with their names on for them as gifts.

    Thank you Christine for another great tutorial 🌺 I have not been sewing for too long. My daughter has been asking me to make her a box pouch type lunch bag with the zip around the top half. Do you think you would be able to make a video showing us how to make one of these? It’s so lovely to watch someone normal that I can relate to! Thank you again 🌺🌺

    • @ChristinesHomeAffairs

      Ahh, this is on my to do list Tina. It's one I'm lacking confidence in, but really need to knuckle down and work it out😀

    They are great and won’t fall out losing your place. Especially for a student or editor, journalist, research etc.

    I was looking through my pile of offcuts only yesterday thinking I’d need to patch them into a larger piece. But now I’ll make a few bookmarks thanks to you.

    • @ChristinesHomeAffairs
      @ChristinesHomeAffairs  4 месяца назад +3

      I was doing the same Duncan. The scrap pile can be a little overwhelming sometimes😀

      I did Sharon, though slightly different. This version is much quicker.

    I tried making some like this, but I need to work on my top stitching. It was soo crooked lol
    I was also trying to use up some acrylic felt I had sitting around to make them stiff

    • @ChristinesHomeAffairs
      @ChristinesHomeAffairs  4 месяца назад +1

      Your top stitching will get better with practice Suzy. Trick is to watch where you're going, not watching the needle😁
