Girl, you have changed the scrunchie game for me. I was able to use some of your tips and it made it soooo much easier. Especially the tube flipper. I just took an old wooden flag pole and put it between my legs and it works great. Thank you thank you thank you
So you have now taught an old dog new tricks! Thank you for helping me speed up this process. I have so many sewing projects waiting, so maybe I can get to them sooner now. Bless you, young lady! You are a manufacturing engineer at heart. You sure just made my sewing world happier. Thank you!
Omg, i wished i watched this video earlier. I volunteered to make scrunchies for my church fair and I took a lot of time in cutting, sewing and turning inside out. With your video it's so fast. Im going to try this. Thank you very much.
True. I learned that years ago when hand quilting a very colourful quilt. I entered it in an art show that my hubby’s work sponsored & it blew me away that I won best of show.
Oh my goodness, thank you for sharing- that's a wonderful idea! 😍🇨🇦 I recall using some light grey thread on denim (I do experiments on denim for fun and enjoyment) and it looked absolutely wonderful! I forgot about that, but will certainly start using grey some more in the future!
Nice video. You can try this for inserting elastic into the tubes - put a rubber band around the top of the stick and hold the cut piece of elastic there hanging down. Next, just slide the tube down the stick and elastc while making sure it doesn't go beyond the bottom end of the elastic. Then just pull the top portion of the elastic down and away from the rubber band and stick.
I’ve never had a problem sewing the elastic without glue. I don’t even pin it. I also use a bodkin, it’s fast. I will try the thicker elastic next time. I also use a zig zag stitch on the elastic, because elastic stretches a straight stitch will pop under pressure.
These are wonderful tips Taylah! These are wonderful tips for sewing in general, regardless of whether a person is a hobbyist, or creating sewn pieces for sale. I do sewing for enjoyment, to make alterations on thrifted clothes, and to do repairs for my loved ones as well as myself. I've been pre-winding my bobbins ahead of time for a few years now, and I can attest this is a huge game changer! I always have several bobbins of my most frequently used colors in a little tray, and will pre-wind a few in specific colors needed for a project before starting it. I really enjoyed watching this, I learned a few new ideas, and I admire your work and your skills. Thanks again! Fawn 😊
Thank you for this wonderful tip. I've been using the burrito method for sewing my scrunchies for a while now and it is pretty time consuming HAHA 😂 I will try your method hope it would work for me. Lots of love from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Wow wow wow Ur a machine! This is brilliant. I'm just looking into doing bows and scrunchies, so I definitely take it advice. Who knows I may end batch doing too! Fellow Aussie here also! 💖
Theres a great little machine called a Side Winder. Its not very bog and ots sole purpose is bobbin winding. Its super fast and you dont have to undo your sewing machine to make new bobbins It can also run on the side while youre sewing if you want to refill as you run out.
I watched an insta reel of scrunchie being made and thought to myself I wonder how they're from start to finish. Searched how... clicked this video and its the same girl from the reel. Looks really fun!
So Canadian here, I love your videos, I watch them while I work (just started a mask/scrunchies and stuff business last year ❤). For your pulling the elastic through issue, I found another scrunchie maker here who recommended a bodkin by clover that's called a clip and glide, it's green. Best thing I have ever bought for my business , but a little harder to find. I found mine at a local small sewing shop. Hope this helps, keep up the amazing videos, super inspiring 😊❤ ~Thalli&Co (Haley)
Thank you for this. I've seen so many videos and honestly I couldn't figure out how they were putting the scrunchie together lol this way is much more simpler ❤️
If you want, you can use an expo marker and put the elastic on the top, close the cap on the elastic,and the marker, then you can thread it. It makes it much easier.
Would you please share exactly what kind (brand, style, width, length, etc) of elastic that you use? Do you use braided or knit elastic? Which do you find to be most durable? Is there a certain brand you prefer? Thank you !
Thank you! Definitely going to take away the only black or white thread, this sounds like it will save so much time!! Thank you for explaining everything so well! Off to learn more about your scrunchie stick! xxx
While I am unlikely to make masses and masses of scrunchies, I do have three daughters and two nieces each with friends who they like to gift Xmas presents to so this could be extremely useful even on a domestic level lol! Thank you for taking the time to produce the tutorial :)
Your videos are so helpful. If I may ask, what size (length/width) do you cut your elastic. Also, is there an advantage of using wide elastic compared to say a 1/4 inch wide elastic? TFS!
Thank you so much for this video ! I'm sure gonna use some of this tips. I currently use really thin elastic cause I feel like it stretch the best . what kind of elastic do you use ? does it stretch too ?
i had an idea for threading elastic! you could attach a small alligator clip or something to the tip of the flippy stick. Clip the elastic and slip the tube over it, maybe while holding the bottom of the elastic. i loathe poking my fingers with safety pins haha. Great video tho (:
Hey Taylah, have you thought of using an industrial machine? I bought a second hand Juki for $1000 at a place in Clayton. It is a workhorse and would save you loads of time. It also has auto reverse and auto cutting
What kind of glue do you use?. Having trouble finding a quick drying one. Granddaughter and I love your videos. She has learned so much from you. Thank you
I use deluxe satin from spotlight and I find it SO much better than their cheaper ones. It barely frays and neither does another cheaper version from there. But some other varieties are terrible and fray easiest
Been following and watching your videos. I so love it. Im a newbie on making scrunchies. Your videos are really awesome. You always makes my day🎀😍 From Philippines with love❤
There's a tool that is about twelve inches long, metal, thin and had a small alligator clip at one end. Attach to elastic end and push through scrunchie tube. Good luck in your business. Actually I think it's telescopic and used for electronics, hope this helps.
I love this! How do you tie off your thread once you’ve sewn in your table? I’m afraid of mine coming undone if I don’t tie a knot but it’s so time consuming!
I don’t really have any left over from cutting scrunchies, I just make smaller scrunchies if I get to the end of the fabric. I used to make bows from off cuts but I changed my scrunchie sizes
To make mine I sew the elastic on each end of the inside out tube and then do the burrito method of sewing. This eliminates stick to turn tube, glueung, sewing the elastic and once ur done flip right side sew end closed and ur done with way less steps.
I sew scrunchies with the edges together and it comes out right side and no need for turning over. no raw edges and no threads are seen on the outside as well.

Try Light grey thread, it is a neutral colour perhaps better than white. 🇨🇦
or invisible stretch fabric

Love the way you explain things as it’s straightforward and I totally get what you say, love your tips,thanks for this awesome video
Instead of fabric glue I normally hand sew but I never tried fabric glue! And the ends all together is a life saver!
Beautiful method. What ratio do you use for elastic to fabric length?
My Granddaughters will love these thank you 😊
I watched an insta reel of scrunchie being made and thought to myself I wonder how they're from start to finish. Searched how... clicked this video and its the same girl from the reel. Looks really fun!

Hey taylah... Try using a bodkin to thread the elastic
Would you please share exactly what kind (brand, style, width, length, etc) of elastic that you use? Do you use braided or knit elastic? Which do you find to be most durable? Is there a certain brand you prefer? Thank you !
You should try using a Bodkin for pulling the elastic through the tubes.
Thank you Tonia! They look very nifty I’ll have to try source one 😁
@@TaylahRose I was just about to comment the same thing! LIFE SAVER!!!!!!
I use a pen, and I just drop it down with the fabric on it , homemade bodkin 😅
Oh my goodness! I need one of those sticks.
Thanks so much for sharing your process!
Gracias voy a comenzar reciclando muchos retazos. BN tengo bastante elástico , y compré una mini Maquina estoy feliz
Your so adorable. You did a awesome job on this video. I look forward to seeing your other videos.
Great tips! Prewinding bobbins... why have I not been doing that? 🤦🏼♀️

I'm trying to make some to sell to make a little extra money so I learned a lot from you, thanks!
Thank you! Wonderful tips!!
You are such an inspiration❤
For threading elastic I use a chopstick with a safety pin tied to the end. Very quick and easy.
I’m surprised that your elastic is so wide, thanks for sharing your technique!
Yes especially for all of us with thin hair... that's way too much bulk
Your videos are so helpful. If I may ask, what size (length/width) do you cut your elastic. Also, is there an advantage of using wide elastic compared to say a 1/4 inch wide elastic? TFS!
She posted 21 cm on another comment.

Hi ..ur r my inspiration...for 1meter how many scrunchies v can make ...
7 years!? Well wow thank God for the new found hope I found from that sentence
are scrunchies still that popular?
Hi Taylah, please what's the measurements for the materials used?
Thanks
I have got the very same sewing machine😊
i had an idea for threading elastic! you could attach a small alligator clip or something to the tip of the flippy stick. Clip the elastic and slip the tube over it, maybe while holding the bottom of the elastic. i loathe poking my fingers with safety pins haha. Great video tho (:
Oh i found You Thanks im gonna follow You.. Watching from HongKong.. Your the youngest hardworking person..
Hello.. I have a question for you. Which type of cloth is best for making scrunchies? Do you use cotton to make scrunchies?
you can try the burrito scrunchie method
It wouldn’t work with my wide elastic unfortunately
watching from Philippines , love your videos, thanks for sharing !
Thank you! 😁
Good do you make the labels? That's what I've always wondered. Thanks for the video, great techniques!! 👍❤️
Please advise the name of the fabric glue and where you buy it?
Hey Taylah, have you thought of using an industrial machine? I bought a second hand Juki for $1000 at a place in Clayton. It is a workhorse and would save you loads of time. It also has auto reverse and auto cutting
Possibly when i move into my 'forever' studio the one im in now is a bit small!
Which model do you have? Thanks
@@MM-gf5vm I cant remember sorry :)
Yay! I've been waiting for this video. I'm getting for a market myself. And I need to make a bunch of scrunchies and bows.
Thanks so much! ☺️
Hi how do you determine the length of elastic for the different sizes of scrunchies
Do you do custom scrunchies by chance?
Loved the video! Thks it helped a lot. A quick question: at the end when you close it all, do you sew the elastic in the middle or on the side?
In the middle 😄
Can you tell me where you got your garter from 🙏😊
Hi Taylah - you said a metre wide but what about the length? thanks xx
Wow, clever! Thanks.
What kind of glue do you use?. Having trouble finding a quick drying one.
Granddaughter and I love your videos. She has learned so much from you.
Thank you
That glue holds even when washed? Thank you.
thank you so kind to provide details
Thanks for sharing. Love it
Great tips. Thanks
Thanks for the tips and tricks 👍💖
Thank you for watching!
Wait omg can you show that stick turning in slo mo? So cool! Is that only for knits?
I use it for almost all my scrunchies! It’s on my RUclips channel search flip stick ☺️
Thank you so many tips for me to start a hobby
Are you cutting 4" wide?
What do you sell them for?
Great tutorial!
How do you manage to have satin fabric that isn't fraying into oblivion? Love your tips!
I use deluxe satin from spotlight and I find it SO much better than their cheaper ones. It barely frays and neither does another cheaper version from there. But some other varieties are terrible and fray easiest
i was wondering the same thing.. i have been clipping loose threads all day Lol
Thanks for these tips. This surely will save me alot of time. Where do you get your elastic?
Helpful bulk-sewing tips thank you so much :)
Been following and watching your videos. I so love it. Im a newbie on making scrunchies. Your videos are really awesome. You always makes my day🎀😍

That’s awesome! What are they called?
@@lilliankarroum look up small parts grabber on Google
What size and where do you get that wide elastic?
I love this! How do you tie off your thread once you’ve sewn in your table? I’m afraid of mine coming undone if I don’t tie a knot but it’s so time consuming!
On the sewing machine you just use a back stitch and it locks the stitch in place you don’t need to tie off anything 💗
@@amyajohnson4365 Oh awesome! Also, this video blew my mind. I will forever be bulking my process haha!
@@amyajohnson4365 I was wondering the same thing, because it doesn't look like she back tacs.
Thank you so much for sharing. 👍🤩
What do you do with the left over fabric after cuttinh?
I don’t really have any left over from cutting scrunchies, I just make smaller scrunchies if I get to the end of the fabric. I used to make bows from off cuts but I changed my scrunchie sizes
Clever of you, thanks for sharing!
@taylah I'm new to sewing silk scrunchies. What thread to use? ❓ I'm a beginner and learning. Any tips? greatly appreciated. 🙏 I have brother machine.
Could you please tell me the measurements you use on fabric and elastic please?
Wow thanks I take a new tips gain how to make scrunchies past thank you 🥰
Need a video on your scrunchie stick! that look so much quicker.
ruclips.net/video/s-fur907ujg/видео.html hey! Here it is ☺️
Is that organic cotton elastic? Looks familiar
How long is each elastic for one scrunchie?
