    This is what I enjoy about watching other techniques. I have to say your way eould make me go screaming into the night. Like using the papers and basting and removing would do for you. Im glad there are lots of ways to achieve the same resilts. Thanks for sharing but I will stick to the traditional way. BTW just for me, the very thought of fussy cutting makes me cringe and I would never do it. LOL.

    Hi . This is stunning work. Unless I missed something, did you use the same bobbin thread throughout, or did you change it to match the top thread?

    • @HeidiCreates
      @HeidiCreates 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you. As long as the bobbin thread isn’t showing, I don’t bother changing. Adjusting the tension is usually the only thing needed to create the desired look. The only time it doesn’t work is if there is a strong contrast in color. Typically, I like using a grey bobbin thread.

    Very interesting! For someone who has never done this type of work it would have been easier to follow if the camera was closer to the work. For some reason an opaque light turquoise, flamingo pink or sunflower yellow show up best -- it is easier to see the stitching. Will incorporate this in a project

    I am SO thankful to you for making this video. I used to make scrap fabric baskets and mats many years ago but it’s been so long since my last one that I’d completely forgotten how to start them. I always have clothesline on hand for various uses around the house and farm so I’ll make the first couple out of that, and perhaps check out some other things to try out as well. Thank you again, this was a super helpful reminder ❤

    Yes, Dorset buttons come from the county of Dorset in the South West here in England. It's a beautiful coastal county east of the counties Devon and Cornwall - I've visited several times because my husband was born near Bournemouth and still has family there. I remember buying a little Dorset button making kit from a little shop in the town of Dorchester when visiting many years ago.

I come from garment making world where seams were 5/8", I find my FG points aren't as sharp (if showing at all) as your example and I watch Donna Jordan's YT tutorials but apparently have a mental block. Any help will be so greatly appreciated. I bought my beautiful fabric and want to make the Loving Wishes quilt (Maple Cottage) for my great granddaughter due to arrive late spring 2024.
