Don't Throw Out Your Fabric Scraps! Make a Wrist Pincushion!
Another addition to the 'Don't Throw Out Your Scraps' series in which I show you how I use my scrap fabric (and yarn, batting, elastic, etc.) to create beautiful, useful handmade objects.
I love sewing these small projects so I can put to use all of my plant dyed fabric and use up scraps I have in the sewing studio. It's just another way I can reduce my waste.
Hope you give it a try, let me know if you do!

    This is a fantastic video, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and all the tips and tricks you've learned. I'm just starting out with appliqué and this has really helped me plan! Beautifully filmed, too, it's fiddly showing tiny needles and thread and close stitches so thank you for your patience in filming yourself sewing too!

    Just seeing the thumbnail made me wanna go out and find a ratty ol chair and visibly mend it! Your chair was sooooo much prettier after mending. Never thought to use a curved needle to sew on items u can't pick up and maneuver. The other day I was mending a hole in a mattress. If I'd used a curved needle instead of a straight one I wouldn't have slightly bent my needle.

    This completely inspired me to repair my sweater with too many holes, I don't mind the holes, but they'll soon force me to retire it all together, unless I repair it! Everything I've seen in visible mending revolves around denim, woven fabrics, or darning knits. Any advice for fleece??

    Hi there. Your video just popped up in my TH-cam suggestions. This is exactly what I would love, love, love to watch. I absolutely agree with mending clothes and I’ve been doing it for decades. Your wonderful way of stitching is like the Japanese art of mending and it’s so fantastic. Thank you. However, because of a neurological condition, I am not able to listen to the human voice with any music overlaid. And this music was so loud, I started feeling dizzy and nauseous. 😢 I’m devastated because if there was no music on your videos, I would subscribe and watch all of them! You have the perfect voice for me to listen to - it’s gentle, calm and quiet. You’re a great teacher, your work is neat and fun, and I’m so sad I can’t watch any more. Please could I beg you to make videos with no music, especially dance type music with drum beats. Loads of people don’t like music with everything; and all adverts, dramas, documentaries etc. come, nowadays with really loud music that gets turned on and off. People will say mute your device, but then I miss the teaching and great advice. Also, I am partially disabled and live alone - hearing the human voice is wonderful and therapeutic when you’re lonely! Bless you ❤

    Guy here. When I was a kid in the 70's I remember how my grandmamma use to darn my socks. I was always so amazed. When I was six years old my next door neighbour she was twelve and she taught me to knit back then. (Just a little.) Though I lost that ability soon after. I have a few pairs of socks that need some tender loving care. I just need to find out how to throw this laziness into the garbage, so I do not need to purchase more socks hehe. Wonderful instructional video. I know it is not that difficult, it just needs a bit of time and some patience.

    This is the best needle tutorial I've found on TH-cam (and I've watched a ton of them!). I'm an experienced beginner now, and here's what I've learned: 1). She's absolutely right: trim to an 1/8 of an inch. Other tutorials have said 1/4" , but any more than an 1/8 makes curves too hard to turn under. Take your time trimming. Good prep = better results 2). Use a size 11 needle (milliner's needle!). I've bought and tried many different sized needles. You definitely want something thin and easy to push and pull! I'm currently using Bohn 11s but have John James Milliners Straw Needles (11) coming from Amazon. My man fingers could use something a little longer. 3). My thread of choice is YLI silk thread (200 meters per spool). Yes, it's more expensive than regular thread, but it is strong and thin! It hides itself easily! I haven't had any problems with knotting, and I cut my initial thread at about 16-18 inches. 4). I thought snipping to the line on curves was insane, but thrust me, when doing inner curves, it makes turning on your drawn line so much easier. If you don't snip to the line on an inner curve, the fabric won't turn on the line. 5). Baste your applique patch rather than pin it. Yes, it take more time, but thread gets caught in pins very easily. I am so glad I basted!! 6). Unless your an eagle, by a pair of readers. I'm using a 4x pair! 7). Be patient with yourself. Get over the idea of doing something quickly and practice mindfulness (being present to the moment). Needle turning is not something that can be rushed. It's why we work by hand anyway, right? 8). Do a sample piece before you try needle turning your actual project. It's worth the time to get the feel of the process. 9). Happiness is a needle turn curve on your actual line!!!! It's almost better than ice cream! Thanks for your tutorial. It gave me the clearest idea of how to proceed!

    @patinabents6763 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This tutorial is just amazing! I think using some quick basting stitches could be a good alternative for the big pins in the middle. Your thread doesn't get caught and you can't accidentally prick yourself no matter how you hold/turn your work.
