Hi Angela: I could listen to you all day long. This video was such a wealth of information. Will definitely save in my sewing playlist. Thank you so much for sharing. 💜😎🇺🇸
I’ve been sewing for 55 years and found several great ideas to use! It’s Exciting to find things to make a craft even more fun than it’s been! Happy sewing/quilting!
You are a rare find! Great combination of value added demonstrations with the most calming voice that is to the point. Thanks for sharing your skills and knowledge.
I love your voice, it’s very calming and I’m glad I ran across your videos. It’s been years since I’ve sewn and recently I found several sewing machines that I forgot I had. You make me wanna sew. Looking forward to more videos. Janice
My goodness I totally enjoyed this wowness I was totally impressed you are a genius there are sewing hacks that I never even heard of much less used and I am 70 yrs old thank you so very much I will definitely subscribe and give you a thumbs up wow you have a person thatis going to watch all of your videos!!!God Bless you!! ❤❤❤
I have sewed professionally for many years but am always looking to learn more …your video had some great ideas for beginners and more experienced sewer …thank you for sharing
All great ideas. Have to say that, so far, my favorite 2 are the dental floss container and the tweezers. I use tweezers a lot in sewing, but the way you tied the thread with them is going to be very helpful. Oh, and I really like the pipe cleaner tips also. All ideas are great though. So, thanks again for sharing them.
Thank you. Actually my favourite tweezers are the reverse grip ones. You squeeze to open and they stay closed when just holding them. I find this more user friendly especially when picking up beads and sequins
Karen at Just Get It Done Quilts uses freezer paper for several things, my favourite being to iron a narrow strip along a bias edge to stabilize before you sew. So quick and works like a charm.
I use larger size clear adhesive wall hooks cantered on my quilting rulers as a handle. You can pick them up easily and the 😮hook part rests nicely in the webbing between your thumb and pointer finger to hold the ruler down on your fabric.
Hi Angela! Wow! Some of these hacks are mind-blowing! Love your delivery and demonstrations of each hack. I don't know much about applique but will definitely use the freezer paper trick! Thanks for sharing!
Tweezers are a must have. I like the precision eagle beak. Thanks for sharing these fantastic (unique) tips. I recently purchased some glass weights for fermenting (hold product down in jar). As soon as I pulled them out I realized they would be perfect pattern weights.
Glad you like them! I have those glass weights too but my fav is using my magnets. Please have a look at my previous hacks video. 😊 ruclips.net/video/IRhmb2G1Y1s/видео.html
My mum taught me to do 2 lines of stitching for gathering, makes it so much easier. 4:21 A recent hack I came across is to use dental floss for gathering instead of thread. Haven't tried it yet though. Love your videos. For pleats, use a kitchen fork
Thank you, If you want perfectly even gathers, sew 3 rows of stitching and then gather. And if you have one of the rows beyond the sea allowance, the gathers will stay put and stay even when sewing your seam. You then can remove that row after completely the seam. The reason for this is that even if the gathers are all even, they can get pushed out of position when sewing the seams together. Also loosen your tension before sewing the rows. Have you tried using a gathering foot? Thanks for watching.
I have another hack for tall thread spools. I use a paper towel holder. The shorter dowel is the perfect size for tall spools and the base of the holder keeps it secure on the table. I’ve only tried this with wooden towel holder, it might work with metal holders as well . Thank you for sharing the velvet board hack, GENIUS ❤
These hacks are genius! I need to look for those dental floss threaders. I have a fancy metal filigree needle threader that I believe is actually scuffing the eye of my cross stitch needle. Hopefully these dental floss threaders will be gentler and will go through the eye of my needle.
Sometimes when machine sewing from a cone of thread, the thread will not stay in the thread guides on the machine. A cheap plastic drinking straw can be cut and taped to the machine to make thread guides (that the thread can't get itself out of). It also helps when you are sewing with twin needles and want extra thread guides for the other spool of thread.
The dental floss you removed from the container can be used for sewing on buttons! Very strong!! Just sew once over with matching thread!! Painter’s tape useful for holding embroidery projects in the hoop, especially on the back. If you need stronger hold, use medical tape!!
Brilliant ideas. I’ve never used freezer paper before but I have new eyes now.. 😂 When you refer to printer paper, it’s just normal printer paper? Also is the printer a normal printer with normal ink or is it specialised for crafts and fabrics?
Instead of having to measure with a ruler, you can just set your measurement from the floor up with the elastic and just pin or mark beside it. Thanks for watching

I’ve never used freezer paper before but I have new eyes now.. 😂
When you refer to printer paper, it’s just normal printer paper? Also is the printer a normal printer with normal ink or is it specialised for crafts and fabrics?
It’s just a normal inkjet printer.
I hate to ask this but what kind of printer did you use? I need to get one and it looked like yours would be perfect for what I need.
It’s an HP officeJet Pr 9010e. Thanks for watching😊
❤❤❤

Please have a look at my previous hacks video- 😊. ruclips.net/video/IRhmb2G1Y1s/видео.html
I don’t understand the plunger and elastic… how does it work?
Instead of having to measure with a ruler, you can just set your measurement from the floor up with the elastic and just pin or mark beside it. Thanks for watching
Thanks for all these wonderful tips
You are most welcome. Please have a look at my other hacks video😊
