A W E S O M E !! I was so tired of seeing these items made with a glue gun!!! I have a Bernina, I have decorative thread, I have rope!!! WOOP WOOP!!! Thank you so much!!!
Shopping bag!!! YES. I'm leary of the little flimsy plastic ones. WIll I get to the car or not? A rope container will be SO much stronger. Ok.... HAVE to make one )))) THanks. )))
I looked all over at tutorials for how to join rope ends when I’ve run short of rope for a project. Thank you for this easy tip. Love your channel. I so enjoy your videos. Thanks from Tampa FL. 🥰
I'm not a sewer by any means...in fact I'm just a curious man...and your video caught my eye so I had to take a look. Wow...you are VERY creative and these projects are amazing and have a very artistic and stylish look. I'm sure you've inspired many sewers, and because of this unique method you've developed even inspired people to start sewing. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent with the world.
Good camera work with dialogue! Love the idea of the thread being decorative. It would be cool to use glow in the dark thread for a nightstand dish 😉. Oh the possibilities 👍❣️
Oh my goodness, thank you so much for sharing these ideas! I'm going to Amazon right now to order what I need. I lost all my hearing overnight a few months ago so I dont leave home much, these adorable baskets will help keep my mind busy and off my dramatic life change. Thanks again.
@@JustGetitDoneQuilts Thats ok! I have the time. I made little stuffed bunnies for my granddaughters for Easter and I've been shopping online for baskets to fill but now.... I'm going to make the baskets! Yay! Soooo, much better than buying what everyone else has. Thanks again for sharing your ideas I just love it.
Having my first coffee this morning and ran across your tutorial on rope “do dads”. I’m on my second 1000 ft of cotton rope now. I’m just as addicted to it as I am to quilting,, HELP 😂. Wish I could show you what I’ve made so far. After seeing your large Market Bag I do believe it will be next. For the past few years as Christmas gifts I’ve made some type of sewing project for my family; which seem to grow each year. Gifts have been aprons, pillowcases jellyroll rugs and pat year was Sliced Rugs. 17 rugs each year😂. I am so blessed to be able to do all the stitching I do and plus watch tutorials such as yours to inspire me. KEEP ON STITCHIN❤
Bless you! my mom loves baskets, and so do several friends, and i have NO talent for wicker weaving (and no interest in a new craft!) but i already have a sewing machine and a LOT of rope and threads and scraps!
You are amazing that looks like such a fun project! What is wrong with people who do this thumbs down stuff? I will never understand why you tube allows it anyway. It is nothing but negativity. If they don't like what they see they can move on, no one needs to hear it...OK, I'm stepping off my soapbox now. LOL
I just put the rope in my Amazon basket. I don't have a sewing machine, so I'll be doing it by hand, but this will be fun once I practice hand sewing it. Thanks for the excellent video!
I'm a crocheter, but happened on your video about creating sn ironing board for a small space. I live in a 1 bedroom and small apartment so there is little space for all my yarn and Whips (Work In Progress). I have bags of yarn sitting in every knook and cranny of my place! I would LOVE to quilt someday but do not have space to set up my machine. Would LOVE to make these baskets!!! Your video is thorough and easy to follow. You have a great voice, too.... very clear and well modulated!!! Thank you for this video. I am subscribing just to see your other ideas and hints along the way. You come across as a good friend!!!! You are an amazing woman!!!
I’ve been a prolific sewer for about 60 years! You are the BEST, most interesting and encouraging sewer I’ve ever known!! Great job!! Yay for encouraging others with practical advice!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Wow you make such beautiful baskets. It reminds me of Native American artifacts with a modern twist. I love also how you break up your voice overs with some shots of you talking to us on camera!
Thank you!!! Thank you!!! 💜💜 God Bless you😇. What a fantastic idea for gifts. Especially if your on a limited budget and want to give something very special to someone for a personal gift. Love Love Love💜💜💜💜💜
@@JustGetitDoneQuilts I think this idea is really nice. I like all the different items you can make from the clothesline. Thank you also so very much for the wonderful step by step instructions for each project. Video taped very well the step by step instructions. Would love more videos like this video. 💜😇👍
I like the idea of just making coasters. And maybe a “cup” to store them in when not in use? I do love that knitted bag though. Maybe a gift for next year?
Today is a difficult day for me. Yesterday there was a mass shooting at an elementary school in a nearby community. Our news is full of the details and I'm on overload. I needed something to listen to that was more engaging than music, preferably funny. RUclips tutorials usually hit the spot. This video re-dropped on my connect screen for RUclips. I immediately clicked to watch again because it's Karen Brown. Of the MANY things she does well, she's my go-to for a soothing voice, no muss nor fuss and something fascinating to discover. Karen, if you read this, thank you.
Ii agree with everyone, your delivery is awesome and I love your projects. So cool. I have wanted to do this for ages, even have the rope, and now maybe I can finally get this done. I will offer one thing, your machine most likely has a knee lift. If you were to use it, it would make this project so much easier, especially at the start. You would use your knee to raise the presser foot and your hands would be free to continue holding the rope & scissors. The continuity of your hands being in place will make everything easier as you are not having to put down and pick up your "poking" things. At first you may feel a bit awkward, but after about the third lift you will be saying "OMG, oh yes". Anyway, just a thought.
Ohhhhh!I make my baskets sewing by hand,doesn't take long at all.I didn't know I could use my sewing machine for THIS Wow...a whole new world for me and my machine.Thank you.
I love your projects and how easy you make the instructions! I wish I would have seen it before I bought fabric strips and wrapped the rope...arrrrrgg :(. I am all about easy. Thanks for giving us 7 different ideas. You are the BEST!!!
Ok! You are my new hero. Just retired in June 19. It’s fate that I would find a crafts person of your caliber to help me with all the fabric I have in my stash!!
I love all your videos. I'm not a quilter. I upholster professionally, and have my workshop attached to my home. When I have some 'me time', I craft. I find your videos helpful for both sides of my life and I have told friends who do quilts about your videos. I'm thinking of using my scraps from my many projects to make rag rugs and now after watching this to make some of these projects as well using scrap ropes (instead of actual rope). Thank you very much for these wonderful videos and thank you for being you.
I think I've heard of this video before, but right now I'm supposed to be sewing but I'm stuck on your video! Lol either way, great video. Lol I have been looking at these videos almost all day. Lol 💙🐝💙
The fiddly part at the beginning...After breaking several needles trying to move thigs around at the beginning, I came up with this no fail method. Coil the rope for about 1.5 to 2 in in diameter. Clip but also hold with your fingers ( l learned to not use pins!) Now flip this center. Zig zag INTO the center. Clip the threads and remove from under the presser foot. Flip and begin at the center and start the zigzag as normal. I could not keep the rope center in place without this beginning spiral into the center.
This popped up in my feed since I'm a subscriber now 🤗 I have watched videos on this in the past and you explained it better than any of them. I can't wait to try it!!
@@JustGetitDoneQuilts I think the videos are too! Unfortunately it can be distracting unless it's like your quilt circle that is good in the background. Loving that too BTW
I was watching a channel with the same project ideas I think crafty patty and between the 2 of you I feel like I could start a business from making these type of gifts. So very informative, and love your style of video here. I definitely have to watch more. Thank you so much.

Thanks Karen for these fab idea's 👌
That first project would make a great placemat/glass mat for the dining room.
The last one would be a nice beach bag as well

Isn't she great ! I think you should give it a go. Imagine your loved ones faces when you say that you made it. 👍👏👏👏
So kind of you, tinkmarz. You're very thoughtful.
tinkmarz1 spot on! 👍
You are so talented and so much energy. I love to see what is your next craft idea.
Thank you for the excellent tutorials!! The close ups help sooooo much!!
Very clever. Thank you

Give it a go. Let me know how it works
i like your hairstyle in this video, just a random comment. I enjoy your blog and instagram. thanks for sharing.
MGS 🤣
You can buy glow in the dark thread!! Omg that's a terrific idea!
The GREATEST video EVER!!! Very nicely done, good music, good voice, brought me happiness with those projects!
Let’s sew them!!

They have been very popular with friends and family
wow! so neatly made -- the cord company will be so impressed too, especially with all the coloring with threads & fabrics.
Am a garment sewer for 50+ years, I love the look of quilts but have no desire to make one and thoroughly enjoy your videos.
Very nice. Really super

Will do!!
What fabulous ideas, thanks very much, will definitely try at least one of these projects ❤️❤️
I’ve made sets of coasters using this method with colored para cord rope, but WOW.... you expanded my horizons considerably! Tks!!!

+Made by a BEAutiful queen-Bea They are even more addictive when you make them. Very hard to stop at one

Fabulous gifts.
They are all in use...and I have orders for more...especially the bread bowl
I can't wait to make some
Oh, I love this video! Thanks!
Thank you very much!🙏👏❤⚘
This is amazing! I thought this was too hard to do or try. But I think I'm going to try this Christmas break! Thanks Karen!
Thanks !
OMG!!!😲
AMAZINGLY. AWESOME!!!!
WANT THESE...
NEED THESE...
LOVE THESE!!!
🥰 Thank you 🥰
You can dye the cord as well to personalize it some more. I dyed my cotton cord green and followed the directions above.
I loved it! My greetings from 🇺🇾
I agree...for surprise...dying rope is the best...breathes in an artistic flair into plain boring cord/rope..try it...you’ll like it...🇨🇦🇨🇦
@@paulinechapman9319 You can even let the bowl sit in a pot of dye and let the dye travel up the bowl for an ombre effect.

You just taught me how I can make placemats, or use them how to make a trendy purse. Newly subscribed. Thanks!
Fantastic!!!
I love this tutorial! I also love your calm delivery and concise explanation of the projects. Have a blessed holiday season!
