This is exactly what I needed! I'm working through the beginner workshops on Foundations Revealed right now and the homework was to make a tailor's ham. Thank you!!
Oh thanks for this! I'm going to go on and leave a donation because its a good thing to support. I was just wondering about buying one of these for when I get paid but I would rather give the money to someone like yourself who is doing stuff to pass on skills that people seem to be forgetting. Excellent! I subbed and liked too!
Thanks for the video and free pattern! I noticed you said you put the outer fabric and wool both right sides up in the video at around 5:30, shouldn't they be right sides together so the good side is showing when you turn it?
I made this tonight. thank you very much for this pattern and your very clear tutorial. I have a suggestion. I put the turning opening in about the same spot that you did, along one side. If I ever make another I think I will leave the opening in one end. It was difficult to get both ends filled sufficiently. filling from the end would make it easier (i think). Also I think I will sew the opening mostly closed before filling just leaving room for the funnel to slip in easily. I can see where that might bite me in the butt however. I may try it when I make the seam roll.
Amazon has walnut shells in an 8 quart package for about 5.00 with free shipping with Prime. Would that be enough to fill this Tailor’s ham. I hope that this isn’t a stupid question!!!! It’s just that I am not used to sewing, and I don’t have a very developed idea of quantities yet. Thanks for helping. I enjoyed your video. You are clear and upbeat! Thanks! Pat
Hello, I am new to your channel. You mention you have a video and pattern to make a cup shaped tailors ham. I cannot find that video or pattern here or on your website. Can you please send it to me or tell me where I can get it? Thank you for your help.
Aaaah your timing is perfect! I've been wanting a ham and had just resolved to make my own when voila! this video appeared! Thank you so much! Could you explain the walnut shells? I assume they're used for filler because they can withstand the heat, but are there alternatives?
There are lots of alternatives. Thanks to the ongoing situation, i found the walnut shells at the pet store. Traditionally it would be sawdust. You can use cut up scraps of fabric, cotton wadding, wool wadding, cotton or wool batting chopped up. The idea really is to just have a really solid item that can withstand heat.
I made a few using a bag of cedar pet bedding. You only need a small bag of it. I had a nut allergy a few years ago, and am afraid of using walnut shells.
@@MinniChii You might not be aware that cedar is carcinogenic if you are using it for your pets, (as is mahogany) I would change to plain pine for bedding, though once inside your ham it should be safe (ex boat builder).
Realizing that you probably won’t see this because the video is no longer new, I wanted to share a funny story regarding this video. I was about halfway through it when the sound cut out but the video was still playing. I fiddled with it and noticed that the phone was connected to my AirPods. I went into the bedroom to get them and found that my husband had knocked one onto the bed (he had just come home and gone to sleep a few minutes earlier) and the video was playing through them. I reached over him to get the AirPod and he told me very urgently that it was messy but she was going to make tighter stitches. Huh? Then he said she hid the extra inside! So I sat back and watched the video without sound while he told me that walnut shells make hams heavy and a few other things, but noped on out of there with the AirPod when he said boob corsets! Oh yeah! LOL
At ~5:30, you place the wool layer "right side up" - shouldn't that be right side *down* so that when it is turned inside-out, the right side will be on the outside? I would think that the two outer fabrics should be right sides together in the sandwich.
I have a lot of "waste wool" from processing sheep fleeces. Its been scoured and cleaned, just is waste from processing after. Would that work to stuff this with? How densely stuffed does it need to be?
I just wanted to acces the pattern and it said that the site is unsafe. I just wanted to let yoy know that there might be something wrong with the link or the site.
I just checked JoAnn's online, and the ham and sausage roll in the store are made with cotton and acrylic, not cotton and wool. Grrrr. The ham (apparently no sausage roll) made with cotton and wool is online only. All are stuffed with sawdust and all are Dritz.

I appreciate the humor in a ham shaped like a ham.
thanks! My husband was making ham jokes so i thought it would be fun to add in the video!
The official sewing supply of North Jersey. Great video, happy to see another stuffing besides sawdust.
yeah, i don't trust the chemicals in most of it.
Your illustration is very very clear i love it

Chopsticks help when turning projects right side out, long, skinny, and blunt (they are also helpful for elastic and ties).
and they're really cheap if you go to Chinese restaurants a lot, the ones that come in paper work best for me!!

thanks for the suggestion, i think it is a good way and would be easier to fill that way.

It should be. I used one big bags myself.

hi, there thank you for the tutorial. It seems that the pattern download page is not working. Please help.. thank you.
What is the purpose of the small vee shape on one side?

@@MinniChii Oh, i understand fully! Sawdust is the traditional filler. This stuff was on sale and I don't have any allergies, which is why i used it.

That really sounds like something I would do! Fun story and glad you enjoyed!

Isn't it the wool right side down not out???
Thanks for the pattern. What's a good alternative to the walnut shells? My daughter is allergic and anything ironed on it could cause a reaction.
Sawdust, cut up bits of scrap cotton fabric, cut up wool or cotton batting, cotton or wool stuffing all work.
Also the bedding used for small animals like hamsters
Ha! I found myself trying to help turn it right side out.
lol!

That would be perfect! It should be stuffed as dense as you can get it basically.
Thanks so much!@@CosplaySewingSchool
Your pattern page says warning ⚠️ not a secure site
I apologize, I fixed it. I had make some website changes and didn't realize this brok.e

Interesting. My mother filled hers with sand when she made hers. Never heard of using walnut shells.
i actually got the idea when snopping around Amazon and read a review of the walnut shells. Sand would be great tol though.
How do I get the free pattern please?
I’m a lefty too.
yeah!
How much walnut shells did you use?
i used half of the bag i got from the pet store.

Its hard to find a good one at chain stores. Sawdust stuffing is fine, but the fabric is just not up to par.
Without hardwood sawdust filler, it’s not going to work well as designed.
well, that was a waste of time... owner's website is no longer in service. :/
wtf is this is that meat???
nothing but dead links... nothing works. None of the links to this owner's website works at all...
