Mini Tutorial: Installing Tension Hoops on Fabric
มุมมอง 2K3 ปีที่แล้ว
These tension hoops are amazing and hold your fabric super taught for stitching. This video shows you the easiest way to install them. The demo uses evenweave but the technique is the same for any type of fabric you are stitching with. If you are interested in purchasing these hoops, you can do so here: www.chelseabuns.ca/tensionhoops Thanks so much for watching! If you'd like more information ...

Thanks for the fantastic instructions! Exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks for this video & your piece is gorgeous!
There's probably a case for fraystop around the edge before the final trim. I'm a leatherworker and we use edge finishers to put a good edge over the layers of the original skin.
Love the pattern for this bookmark. What is the name of and where can I get it, please? Thank you for sharing this.
Can we use another piece of Aida fabric for the back of the book mark
Thank you so much, this tutorial was perfect for me!
Wow - great tutorial!
I have one of these hoops cant fix it on to my fabric I've tryed ao many times it doesn't work for me
Should the iron be on low, medium, or high heat?
You have done such a great job on this video, each time i complete a bookmark, i come back to this and rewatch, Fantastic!!
I really do enjoy your tutorial videos. Please continue to stitch and share. Thank you
Just started viewing book mark crossstithing & this was the best of the 30 plus videos I have watched. Thank you. I feel braver now to continue.
This bookmark is beautiful! I’m wondering if you notice any fraying on the edges with use?
3/23/2023: BEAUTIFUL BOOKMAKER and EXCELLENT TUTORIAL.👍🏾🏆 Aloha from Hawaii🌺💚 Would luv to see you do one from the very beginning ( when even picking out the aida and picture you will cross stitch ).
Thank you for creating this video! It's helped me immensely with finishing a Christmas gift!
I would use felt as a backing instead of fabric, whip stitch the edges of the cross stitch and stick them together. No sewing lines to be seen.
Thank you for your excellent video, your a great tutor.
This is a great tutorial. Thank you so much!
Love this video! Hope to show some finished bookmarks in my coming Flosstube videos!
Thank you! Much appreciated! I'll keep an eye out for them! 🙌
Great to watch you for the first time. I'm to a returning stitcher. World of choice is so different many years later but great to have more choices . Thanks for sharing. I just orded gingerbread colourfully cats
I can't wait to see your progress on Gingerbread, and absolutely...there's so much stuff out there now! It's so lovely! Welcome back and I hope to see you around!
Thanks for this video. Blackwork is my favorite! Just discovered it earlier this year (2022). Like you, I did crosstitching off and on my whole life. 7 years in 4H when I was younger then for a little after college, and now back at it. Discovered blackwork at the Great Lakes EGA retreat. I saw a woman doing it and was instantly in love! Please share your expertise. I love learning from others so I don't have to make all the mistakes myself.
Thanks for your comment Mandy! I so appreciate you being here! Yes.... I am obsessed with Blackwork also. It's truly a favourite and I love designing it so much. I'm likely going to put together a full tutorial on stitching one of my Blackwork pieces, or maybe a series for people to follow along with. Thanks for the encouragement! 💗🤗
@@ChelseaBunsCrossStitch do you have an update on the equestrian blackwork you did? Would love to see the finished project.
@@mandyballge632 I actually just posted a finished pic of the framed piece on Instagram just the other day! I think its 3 photos back in the feed. You can check it out at @chelseabunscrossstitch. It was an insanely tough project but I was super thrilled with how it came out. So much work but so worth it. I still can't believe it was a commission and I had to let it go at the end!
So wonderful to see you here! Congratulations on the "re" launch, Chelsea! Great video...
Thank you so much!
Love your WIPs and wishing you all the best with your stitching!
Thanks Emma! Thanks for joining me!
Great to see you! I also love in Ottawa. Love your wips
Awesome to see someone else here from the Ottawa area! Once I start running stitch days again it would be great to meet you!
@@ChelseaBunsCrossStitch Yes, absolutely!
Congratulations on your first Floss tube. Enjoyed seeing your WIPs. Can't wait to check out your tutorials. Love that Lanarte Blue Herons.
Thank you so much! This is really encouraging and I appreciate your time!
Hi Chelsea. When you’re doing the back stitch for your outside border, how long will you carry over a back stitch? Do you limit yourself?
For that border I went 1 over 1, so traditional back stitch (technically over 2 on this specific piece because it was on evenweave). I try and tie in the stitches as short a distance as possible while still getting the line. There's only one pattern that I've done (not released) that has exceptionally long stitches in it and I'm hesitant to release it for that reason! I think the short answer is, whatever you think looks good. If it's a long, straight stretch of stitches though like the border, I'd do traditional backstitching. Hope this helps!
How does one get one of your patterns?
Thanks for asking! We are just re-introducing our website and there are only a few there right now. If you're interested in the Autumn bookmark chart you can find it here: www.chelseabuns.ca/product-page/fall-bookmark-pdf-chart-autumn-feels-for-fall
Fantastic finish! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and time. I appreciate it! *subscribed*
Thanks so much for this Lorraine! We are just getting back into the swing of things over here so are very gracious for your comment and your subscription!
Thank you for this! Loved it!
So glad this was helpful for you! Many more to come so stay tuned!
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much for sharing this video 😊
Thank you so much for your comment Maria! I'm so happy t his helped!
Thank you! I can’t wait to try this!!
No problem Coco! Please share how it went if you get the chance! You can find us at www.chelseabuns.ca!
Hi there, thanks for the video on the tension hoops. I'm an in-hand stitcher but sometimes I find a hoop is necessary for certain things but the ones I have never keep my fabric taught for very long. On another note, I was trying to read the label of that beautiful opalescent fabric you're demo-ing with, but just couldn't read it. Would you mind sharing the fabric details?
I am so sorry for the delay in this response! I will see if I can find that fabric and if I can, I'll definitely come back here and update. All I remember is that it was absolutely stunning which is why I picked it for the demo! Thanks for noticing. 🥰
Done is better than perfect. That's a good maxim for those of us who let fear stop us from making progress in our hobbies and projects.
I completely understand! I'm super glad that you found this helpful!
Thank you for this very clear tutorial! This is a long shot since this video is a year old but I was hoping you’d have those no-sew tutorials. Is there any possibility they’ll still be posted? Thanks.
Hi Jenn, I never forgot that you request this so as soon as I'm done designing the winter one, I'm going to do that tutorial by hand so you can see how I do it!
Also really appreciate the contemporary take on cross stitch. Finally not a teastained aida in sight😂
Hahaha... I had to giggle at this one! My pleasure. Hopefully I can keep the contemporary stuff coming!
@@ChelseaBunsCrossStitch and yes...I really did mean aida 😅
@@craftychatscafe6342 LOL!
New to counted cross stitch, thank you for shring! Please keep it up!
You are so welcome!
Thank you this. Exactly what I needed when I needed it. Just downloaded my first bookmark chart and needed a way to finish, this fits the bill perfectly
Glad it was helpful! Truly appreciate the feedback!
This is exactly what I was looking for, Thank You for sharing!
You're welcome! So happy you're a part of the channel!
Excellent video, Chelsea!
Thank you!!
Fantástic!!! I bought This pattern i would like to see The rest of The seasons bookmarks! One day😜🥰😘😘
I am working on them as we speak!
you need to expand your pattern collection.
I really appreciate this feedback. It honestly means the world to me. I am finally back at it and designing again but words of encouragement like this are very, very helpful and encouraging! Thank you!
Great job Chelsea.
Thank you Hanna!
Loved this. Thanks so much. I’m new to cross stitch. Really pleased with my first little bookmark. Thanks for this vid!
You are so welcome! I'm so happy that this was helpful for you!
Beautiful design!
Thank you so much! Super happy you like it!
I just loved how detailed you were in this tutorial. I found you through FB. Someone asked for recommendations on how to finish bookmarks and someone else replied with a link to your video. Sooo grateful that they did. I love how you are such a perfectionist and double check all your work. Those little reminders are the best as I myself have had to redo projects for not double checking. Your bookmark looks beautiful!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you for this lovely comment! Truly appreciated. I'm so happy that it helped.
Me too👍🏾
Love this video. Would like to see how to finish one without a sewing machine . Thanks.
Coming soon! Someone else originally requested this and as soon as I am done the winter chart I will finish it by hand so you can all take a look!
Please show how to make a corner bookmark with cross stitch on it. Thankyou
I will put this on my to do pile and maybe make a couple of freebie corner bookmark charts to go with the tutorial!
It's amazing.its simple.. Loved it.thankyou..
Most welcome! 😊
I was looking for a simple yet elegant way to finish a bookmark. Your video was very clear and easy to follow. I hope you continue to produce more videos as you are able. Thank you as well for the reminder that it doesn't have to be perfect. I struggle with this a lot.
Truly appreciated! Thanks Jennifer! Hoping for many more video resources that can help people through things like this.
Wonderful tutorial. How can I finish the edge without a sewing machine? What hand stitch do you recommend?
Hi Wilma, I have an idea for this that I will incorporate into my next bookmark finishing tutorial. The basic idea though would be to whip stitch along the entire edge using DMC pearl cotton #5!
