Fantastic tip to hold up the edge to align the crochet; shoe bag; and neck rest! Thank you. I had an idea to sew a small pocket on it to hold lavender buds.

I like how you kept in the footage when it wasn't working, where you decided you needed to pin it instead, and then the comparison of before pinning and after pinning, rather than just restarting the project.

The hanger cover is beautiful and so practical! Even today's youth use hangers (going by what I see in young TH-cam videos). Although I also like the shoe bag and shawl cover, I feel like those would get stuck in a drawer and not used much at my house.

I have only just discovered your channel and I think you and it are fabulous 🎉 😊 I’ve only recently started upcycling men’s shirts and your channel is a mine of information- I cannot understand why you don’t have many more subscribers - and I love your calm and clear presenting style. Thank you so much for your tips - I shall have a look at your patterns. I have dozens of men’s shirts and ladies blouses which I can’t wait to get upcycled now. Many thanks from a Granny in Scotland. 👌🏻🥰

I was wondering I have tried for a month to contact this company for an order I paid for and have not reviewed no one will respond to my call or text message. Charge was $16.00

Oh that is good, thanks

That is so good thanks.

Wow, what an inspiring collection, and great idea to have an upcycling contest! 🌺🌸🌹

so well explained and demonstrated

I know you made this video several years ago so I’m able to confess………yes I do this . I make up “just in case” kits of necessary equipment then forget to unpack it . This is the reason why I have multiple examples of my favourite size knitting needles. I also have my “ handbag (purse) socks “ which I grab if I know I’m in for a boring wait somewhere………I’ve been knitting them for several years- incomplete socks on ( missing) needles/ crochet hook and anything else I might need but tiny. Thank you for letting me know I’m not the only one. Kind regards

This is so helpful, thank you! I don’t like the way I look in regular collars but it’s hard to find mandarin collars. Your instructions are clear and you talk through everything so it’s all explained.

Thank you! I will try doing this, with my 1952 singer k99, on a loved 15 year old shirt - uppe collar is worn through … 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

BEAUTIFUL ideas!,thanks

What is rolled up in that roll thing that you used as a neck pillow? You were speaking fast and I can’t understand what you called it. Something about temperatures getting hot and cold

Thank you so much!!!!!! Now I know what to do with my Grandma’s pillow cases

Good points but should have given examples of pricing in the store.

I love to see new ways of recycling.

Love the doll hanger covers.

Yes yes I am thinking of presents I can give

Awesome ideas to use things that people would otherwise just let go to waste. Love these ideas.

I found some beautiful hand embroidered pillowcases in my mothers linen closet. They were gold with age, and had the greasy stain from a head that slept there. I couldn’t bare to discard them, so I put them in some laundry stain remover. It was the one where he puts gold lace in, and it came out snow white. Mine came out with no difference. I let it soak overnight. It was better. I let it soak for a total of three days. Every stain was gone. 😊

Friends who knit appreciate large quality buttons for sweaters & scarves

Friends loved small heart shaped pillows from a worn chenille spread 😊

I have seen those before but just have not made any yet

Accidentally found you ! I love mom an grandmoms handi work thank you for your ideals , I subscribed🎉! I feel so close to them. thank u

The jean bag makes an optical illusion of an amputee.😢

Q:What about narrow shoulders with a very large bust? As well as small armhole but very large biceps 💪.

🎉🎉🎉🎉

How do determine what SHAPE you are?

Hi. I bought a dress with a missing tie around the waist any idea?

I found a great overcoat for my son at a thrift store. The previous owner had shortened the sleeves by tacking them up; I thought they just had short arms. Turns out they had ironed a hole into the sleeve cuff about two inches up on one arm. He needs that length so I can’t just re tack it back up. I would really like to be able to make it wearable for him and found some fabric that is close to the lining. The coat is all cotton duck type fabric except for the lining. This video is helping me wrap my mind around how to make this happen! Any other tips that you could give would be awesome! Have you ever done something like that?

Great tips😊

❤

Thank you!

Thank you! A very easy to understand tutorial! I don't like the look of collars on me. I have a jacket that will be getting remodeled today!

Michelle, besides the gorgeous hanger you made, your hands are beautiful while u sew. I am a farmer and my hands are a mess. ❤❤❤

Fantastic workmanship from everyone that entered this competition!

I enjoyed every entry! Such beautiful work ladies!

I love this idea! Some of these women from the past have put in so many hours of work into these pieces, and it’s a shame when someone simply throws these pieces away because it “doesn’t match their taste”. Repurposing these pieces still put them into good use, and the labor that the women put into original pieces is still honored. When I was younger, I remember taking some of the doilies that my paternal grandmother made and turned them into gowns for my Barbie dolls. My mother was originally upset that I did that, but I told her that she was just keeping them in the cedar chest and not using them, so I made them into something that can be used.

Lovely!

do you taper the sleeves to slim them a bit before making the cuff?

Thank you for this video. I bought some old thread at a garage sale. With wooden spools of thread is not good anymore unfortunately but the wooden spools are pretty good.

when is this technique used on a sleeve?

It’s 1:20 am and I just found you!!

Is your thread polyester or cotton?

Love this, great idea

I didn’t realize until after I purchased this pattern that it does not show how to alter anything above the arm hole. So you must be working with a shirt that is already your size at the shoulders and arm holes. Just FYI.

Great idea. Omg. That is a beautiful wedding ring set.
