You do GREAT videos. You don't have annoying background music, your instructions are clear and easy to follow, your voice is very pleasant and you have BEAUTIFUL hands! Thank you😆
I'm so glad these videos are helpful for you, thank you so much for watching!
Perfectly said. She is . I also love your at perfect speed, because I'm a slow person,which my mama use to say. 😆 ty.
Agreed ditto😀
Lisa, you give wonderful presentations and are so generous to share your research and experimentation. Instead of doing a 5 minute version, you give learners time to absorb what you're teaching. Thank you so much.
I love your calm cool and collected demeanor, I could listen to you talk all day. I am a self taught quilter from Pittsburgh PA and appreciate all of your videos. I’m typically on the shy side and when I get nervous my hands and voice shakes 😊
Wow, thank you!
You are NOT annoying!
You are teaching very well !
Thank you 🙏😊👍❤️
Thank you! 😃
You are a good teacher because you tell WHY to do it that way. My favorite teaching style
Never worry about your presentation. It is great and I learn so much. Thank you.
You are doing a FINE job. No worries!!!! Your mouth isn't dry and you aren't stumbling over your words. Your instructions are easy to follow. And you are NOT annoying so please don't give up!! Luv it!!
Cheryl Taylor thank you for the encouragement ♡♡♡♡
Love this idea
Love your videos watched it twice.xoxo
You are a natural at this no worries
Could you print appliqué patter directly onto freezer paper?
I have enjoy education your videos. You explain the techniques and also explain why it works. I am a beginner, I started quilting in October 2023. I’m also very short on patience, but I’m definitely working towards getting better; quilting definitely helps 😂. The more efficient the technique is the better for me. Thoroughly enjoy your videos. Thank you!
Lisa, I love your videos and I love how you present them. You make me feel like we are in the same room and friends. Keep doing what you love and we will follow along with you. Thank you for sharing even though you have a bit of stage fright!
Thank you so much Cheryl, I so appreciate the kind words :)
That is so cute and inexpensive I like your rambling it is like being right with you in your sewing room
Thank you for 1) facing your fears and making these awesome videos anyway and 2) sharing your fears! I had no idea you might be nervous, because you seem like such a natural and a good teacher. I hope it encourages others who might be nervous to try teaching! Great job!
thank you so much for the awesome feedback! I'm glad I stepped out of my comfort zone because I have met so many amazing people :)
Thank you for taking the time to share your techniques with us! I enjoy that you are real and not pretentious or fake ,that is rare these days. Thank you!
That is the cutest pumpkin!!! You seemed to have gotten over your public speaking & making videos YAY! These are very helpful I love watching them you are very easy to follow even all these years ago . Thank you for taking the time to teach us💕
Thank you so much!
I know nothing about raw edge applique and tomorrow I'm taking a 3-hour class using freezer paper and glue. I get very confused trying to learn and do while in a group. Your video has helped me greatly. ( I had fantasies of not going to class.) Your style of teaching is fantastic for me and now I am going to class with much less anxiety. Thank you!!!
+healthypeggy fantastic!!! I'm so glad you have found this helpful ♡♡ your class will be fun, and now you have an added confidence:)
I have never seen this kind of applique, thank you so much for your video! I was the same way in high school with public speaking, actually I still am and I am 46! Thanks for taking your time and breaking out of your shell and doing it for us to learn!
Theresa Johnson I'm so glad I'm not alone regarding public speaking hahahaa :) thanks for watching!
Lisa I love your videos. The more that I watch you the more that I really do appreciate you
aweeee, thank you so much Donna!
I am a self taught quilter. i found you on utube 2 weeks ago. i've watched your video several times( as well as several others). i prefer yours. tonight I'm breaking free of my fear and I'm starting to trace my pieces together and start. your instructions seem easier to follow than some of the others. I'm making cotton flags for some of the people who are doing pollination gardens this yr. for Master Gardeners project and several others. ok, here i go.
You can do it Maggie, and I love that you are embracing a new skill :)
I hope it's going well! Im excited to try this
Don't really quilt but I do find your videos helpful/inspirational for garments. Just started using bias binding Instead of facings so teaching me how to do my own was a plus. This video spells grandkid clothes w/characters that you can't find fabric to use but coloring books for patterns. You inspire me; thank you!!
what a fabulous idea Sylvia with the clothing and making your own applique!!
Thank you so much! I believe this technique is the exact thing I'm looking for. I loved the slow step-by-step. I was able to follow and make notes.
So glad you found this video helpful! I appreciate you watching along :)
Glue sticks works great too, you get all the way to the edge. Great video with clear and easy to follow instructions. And no annoying background music is a huge plus. Keep um’ coming. If you have time, seeing a free motion video would be nice.
You do a GREAT job doing your videos. No reason to be nervous.
thank you so much Sharon!
I think you do a fantastic job at this. You're very easy to listen to and I understand just what you are teaching us. ❤️
thank you soooo so much!!!
I love your videos and I am learning so much from you. If people are annoyed they can move on to another channel. Keep sharing your talents and tips with us please!
Sonya Bond. Thank you Sonya!!! I'm really glad you find these videos useful, And thank you for the encouragement ♡
I was surfing today and found you good video, and you speak to the public just fine. :)
Thank you so much. I was desperately trying to figure out hot to use freezer paper for raw edge quilting. You helped with that.
You are good teacher.
Hello there I love your tutorials and I really enjoy the way you teach and explain I have learned quite a bit from you I don't think you're annoying at all people should be grateful that you are here to help and teach us new beginners with your projects to make it easy and simple for us so who cares if they don't like it they can just see something else my opinion but like I say thanks for the tutorials and I really do enjoy watching the way you teach
Leticia Machado. Thank you SO MUCH ♡♡ and this is why I face those "fears" :)
Leticia Machado I;
A great tutorial I’ve just found a box of freezer paper in a box I hadn’t looked at for years and didn’t know how to use it now I know. Thanks
Wow! I wish I found this video.... well, a long time ago! Thank you so much! Can't wait to redo the last sailboat I made, this is great! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💯
Glad it was helpful!
I love your style of speaking through the processes. You do have a lovely voice to listen to...not annoying at all! Thank you for sharing your creative expertise with us!
Thank you so much for the awesome feedback :)
I know this is an old video but you did great, Not sure why you were nervous, keep up the good work. There are teachers out there for everyone, you attract your tribe. Thanks for your wonderful tips!
Faodail Creation. You attract your tribe....I LIKE THAT!! Thank you so much ♡
Faodail Creation. You attract your tribe....I LIKE THAT!! Thank you so much ♡
"You guys" work on eliminating that from your videos!
Geri Bonomo unfortunately it's just part of who I am, thanks for your input though :)
Geri Bonomo I want to know who voted you the grammar police?
Hi Lisa, This is the first video I've watched on using Freezer Paper Applique Techniques and Elmer's glue. I found your video quite informative, useful and easy to follow. Thanks so much for posting! Keep up the good work...you are doing an excellent job!
Thanks. I knew about this method but watching & listening to you made it so easy to follow and understand. Thanks again
+choochoo bruemmer thank you for the awesome feedback!!
Yes I have shaky hands. You are not alone and I am glad it doesn’t stop you-? Thank you for your lessons. Love ❤️
Found your video and loved watching you. You have a gift that's for sure. You take your time and explain things very well. I appreciate you taking the time to share your knowledge and experience. Blessings to you!
Thank you Betty for watching and your kind words ♡♡♡
Always wondered how to do the freezer paper trick. Thank you. I am self taught or TH-cam educated. Thanks so much for being one of those generous unselfish people that are willing to share your knowledge.
You sound like me! I have learned soooo much through watching videos and teachers here on TH-cam :) So glad I could pass along the tips!
Lisa, I particularly enjoy your tutorials because I feel I'm sharing time with a friend. We would be doing the same amount of chatter. You do an great job. Thanks for persevering for our sakes! I learned to use freezer paper to stabilize during free hand machine embroidery. Loved learning the technique for other purposes that you have shown in your videos.
Linda Caraway comments like this give me motivation to keep making videos, THANK YOU!!! I too feel like I'm spending time with great friends ♡♡♡
I love watching your video's! you explain each step as you go and I don't see your talking as "chatter"! Thank you for teaching us!
Glad you like them!
New to You Tube and I love your “rambling on.” I happily pushed the subscribe button and the bell. Thank you 🙏 👏😉
aweeee, you are so sweet Tonya, thanks for watching my rambling on video hehehee :)
I'm always glad to see your videos. You're like an friend who has something exciting to share and I want to see and hear you. You are easy to follow along. Keep those videos coming!
If I didn't want "chattery", I'd be reading a book :-)
Thank you for patiently showing an economical way to create something beautiful!
You are sooooo so nice!!!! Thank you so much, I appreciate your awesome feedback :)
I know this is an old video. I just wanted to say that, I know what it’s like to worry that your contributions aren’t original or valuable. But I watch a mix of videos whenever I’m trying to pick up a skill because everyone presents things a little differently, and I never know what will best help me understand what I’m trying to learn.
So thank you for pushing through that fear. It is helpful.
Love your videos. Watched it over 3 times.learning something new thank you xoxo
So glad you found it helpful!!! Thanks for watching ♡
Oh my gosh, yes. Even 3 years later your videos are very helpful. I watched multiple Appliqué videos but all showed how to sew on and none showed how to create. So yours was very educational for me. TY.
I'm so glad! Thanks Amanda :)
I'm glad I viewed this video...
You applied the freezer paper on the good side ... whew !
Thought I had to mirror my pieces..
Helpful hint for you .... Wine will help with your public speaking & get rid of that shaking , too ! LOL 😋
Don't sell yourself short. You did a fine job making the video, and your wax paper and glue technique saved my first ever quilt, a baby quilt with an appliqued name. Before I found your videos and technique, I seriously considered leaving the name off. Thank you for your videos on how to do this.
Wow, thank you so much ♡♡♡♡
Love this video. Will be using this technique for my very first appliqué project. Thank you.
I think you will enjoy it!
Am not a quilter but am a 'hobby sewer' (have been for many years) and I found this to be a very informative tutorial, so thank you! As hard of hearing used the CC (closed caption) plus the full screen options and had absolutely no difficulty in following your instructions. GREAT JOB!
I'm so glad! So great to hear this video was helpful for you :)
I love your style, your videos have taught me a lot! Thank you!
Thank you so much for the awesome feedback!
Thank you for this video. Your calm demeanor , clear explanations and demonstration made me excited to try this appliqué technique!
Great tutorial, thanks!
+Rosario Chavarria you are certainly welcome :)
I love your voice and lessons and no music. Thank you. Don’t worry 😉 no patience needed.
Video is great!! Don't know if you know it but freezer paper is not wax but plastic coated. Keep up the good work.
Hi Nanny, thanks for watching! Yep, it's definitely plastic coated. Most people who have never worked with freezer paper just seem to relate if you refer it to a "waxy" side hahahaa
I’m just getting started with appliqué. This was immensely helpful! Fabulous job!!
My first intro to raw edge applique with freezer paper. Great job. As someone who has had social anxiety, your honest commentary and class room memories really help put me at ease. Thanks.
I so appreciate your awesome feedback, thank you so much!
You are by far the best teacher for quilting and aplique. Awesome, detailed and comprehensive information. I think I've watched all of them.
Wow, thank you! You've just made my day :)
Great video (I'm a little late coming across it but so helpful). Thank you for sharing the information, techniques etc, appreciated - no rambling , so interesting ❤
Had you tilted the eyelids a bit to the outside of the eye, he would not look angry. The lids actually touch the eyes in the drawing.
Your public speaking is just fine!! The video could be shorter by fast forwarding through the cutting and gluing steps. Just show one at slow speed, fast forward several, and show the last one. Same with the glue; show one, fast several, show the last one.
I agree about the eyelids :) Thank you for your feedback, I appreciate that A LOT!!! I've started changing the way I do tutorials recently to shorten them up a bit. I'm glad you're watching along, THANK YOU!!
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Public speaking is actually the number one fear for most people. Kudos for getting out of your comfort zone. Your tutorial is very relaxing, enjoyable, and helpful. I'm glad you cautioned people about sewing the project while the glue is still wet. I got in a hurry and broke the hook gear on my Janome Gem, that cost me $250 repair. I was devastated that I broke my machine. I wish I had watched your video before hand, but that was eight years ago. Love to you. Great video!
Thank you so much for your encouraging feedback, I appreciate that so much! Yikes, that's a costly repair!! I'm much like you, I would be so upset hahahaa, but I'm so glad you were able to fix it. That happened from using wet glue???
Very Well Done! :) Great directions, no distracting music. Thank You!
Thank you very much!
A glue stick works better...don't have that liquid glue coming out on ends, plus you don't want your needle in that glue
DJ Shanas You May notice that her edges are still nice and smooth and not ragged like they can be when using a glue stick. And she dries the glue with her iron so it won’t gum up her needle when she sews over it. That’s the trick right there! 😁
I wouldn't want glue on my iron or on my needle. I use a glue stick, but thank you
DJ Shanas She heat sets a thin layer of glue until it’s dry. You air dry a swipe of gelled glue. Either way your needle is stitching through dried glue.
LoveElmers glue for lots of projects such as anything that needs batting it secures the fabric to the batting perfectly (No Shifting). I have never used it in appliqué, but will from now on, it looks great and saves lots of money. You are such a good teacher, love your channel, thanks.
I was enjoying the video and then I started hearing your voice echo around 23 minutes but no one else has commented about it so am I hearing things? 😬
After I posted the video I realized the voiceover goofed up. I think early in the comment section I made a note about :) nope you're not hearing things hahaaa.....
Lisa Capen Quilts whew! 😂
You are not hearing things, I heard it too, but it goes away quickly.
Lisa, I think you are sweet and down to earth. I watch you often; I started with older videos. I have learned some great tips! Thank you,
Elizabeth
thank you so much Elizabeth, I appreciate the awesome feedback and that you've been following me along in this journey :)
I thoroughly enjoy your videos and appreciate you are getting out of your comfort zone to do these videos to benefit your "quilting family." Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much 💓
Thanks for a great video. Many people are afraid of public speaking. You're doing just fine.
Nice video. Nice use of the freezer paper. You did a GREAT job! Long videos don't bother me, people have the option to fast forward if THEY want to, and those like me who don't mind just sit, relax, and watch it all. Thank you for Your time!
So glad to have you follow along, and thank you so much for the awesome comment!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me. I have learned a lot from you. So please keep the videos coming. But I agree with you. Public speaking isn’t my thing either. So I appreciate you doing this and sharing your ways with us. Your videos truly do help. So thank you!!!!
I think you do a lovely job and you are calming to listen to so keep up the good work I appreciate you....hugs
Thank You from Puerto Rico.
I have been sewing and quilting for years, but first time watching your video. Have to say I loved your teaching style. Thanks for sharing !
wow, thank you sooooo much Sandy!
I have the same fear of public speaking, and I’m 64! You do a great job, really! Your efforts are appreciated! You are correct… there are far worse content creators!
Hi Lisa, I am Australian and sometimes have a problem understanding the American accent and I must say your way of speaking is very easy for me to understand. You are speaking clearly and at a moderate speed. I haven't started quilting yet but with a bit of help from TH-cam and you I will get there. :))
Hello Marilyn, so great to hear from you! I'm glad these videos are helpful for you, here to help if you have questions :)
I think he looks mischievous😜 I love it
I’m new to quilting and have learnt so much from you and you are not annoying fan down under
thank you so much!
Thank you for the beautiful tutorial.Was long time ago ,and you should be proud of how you face your fears. I am second language, and after 21 years in this country I still dealing with this fear.
Great job Lisa. Thank you so much!!!🥰
Thank you for this video Lisa and explaining how freezer paper is used (and also the fabric glue). The basics and "key" steps of method and use of the tools of applique save so much time and error and are so important to a novice like me. I enjoy your enthusiasm about your work and it inspires me.
You are so welcome! I'm really glad I could pass along some helpful tips that you could use, thank you so much for watching my video!
Thank you for your videos, good teacher, calming voice not annoying.😊
+Patricia Marks thank you Patricia for your encouragement ♡♡♡
Yes, particularly the CALMING voice. So many on TH-cam has these hi pitched 'little girl' voices that just grate on my nerves.
I have been searching for an easy to follow tutorial on raw edge appliqué and I really appreciate Lisa’s straightforward teaching style. Thank you for this great video, Lisa!
I just found your video I want to thank you for going slow and taking your time on the freezer paper
You are so welcome Sandy!!! So glad this video was helpful for you :)
After watching about a million youtubes on this method, I used this for a commission baby quilt. It worked so well and the quilt is now on the frame for quilting. Perhaps a photo will follow, once I've finished. Thanks.
Thank you for teaching this old girl something new!!!
Aweee, you are so welcome Patricia! Thank you for watching my video :)
your hair looks great on this video. Thanks for the nice instructions.
Thank you so much for this video. It's lovely to see someone take you thru every step of the process. And you're definately not annoying.
thank you so much Karen!
This video is very informative. I didn't think anything negative about your voice or your presentation. Don't be so hard on yourself. You are awesome 👌
You at least make the video. That is a lot more then so many of us who are afraid to even try. So thank you for doing this to show some of us older quilters how to do this. Keep up the great work.
You are so sweet Nancy, thank you so much!
Well said young lady! I’ve been sewing for years and I learn something you everyday! Your work and attention to detail inspires me to improve my work. Thanks for sharing all your ideas. Keep up the good work.
If I can share a tip. Pilot puts out a pen called, FriXon. The ink is removed by heat and will re-appear when frozen LOL. So unless your making a garment for someone that lives in frigid weather, you’re good to go! I’ve been using it to mark my fabric especially marking inset zippers. If you make a mistake, press it away! Have a great day!
Thank you soooo much Geraldine, and thank you for passing along your tips as well.....I always say sharing is caring :)
I’m 76 with shaky days and non shaky days. Don’t think I shook when I was younger. Great tutorials TFS 😍
You look younger!
I like your soft and detailed presentation.
I used this for appliqued corners on my current quilt, using SW bear, tortoise, and healing hands. I sewed the edges, then hand embroidered them. My quilting class loved them. This is quite easy. Thank you.
Thank you so much Rebecca! Your quilt sounds lovely :) I appreciate the time in leaving feedback, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I have a massive applique project for a friend of mine this Christmas... and I have been stumped with regard to several aspects of it since I don't applique very much. Your video was one of the best I've watched! You answered questions I didn't even know to ask! Thank you. You have done a great job! Thank you for your help and insight!
I so appreciate the awesome feedback, and I'm really glad this video was so helpful for you! There are so many different ways to do applique and so my approach is always find the way that works best for you :) If you have any questions when starting your big project I'd love to help if I can!
I have loved sewing for years and would love to be able to applique. After watching this video, I am reading to give it a shot. I absolutely love and appreciate the way you do your videos. Keep up the good work. Thank You!
Thank you so much Pam for the awesome feedback! Pull out some scraps and start practicing, using the scraps will take away the "pressure" of having to get it right, right away :) Most importantly, have fun with it! The more you do it, the better you'll get.
Thank you so much for your awesome tutorial !!! Your patience is a gift !!!
Thank you :)
You do a fabulous job teaching!!! Thank you for a clear and simple video which has just eased my mind tremendously about making 31 flowers to go on the sashing for my quilt! No need to have shaky hands or be nervous. You are awesome!
thank you soooo so much Candace! I'm really glad this video was helpful for you
I enjoyed listening to you. Your teaching technique is very concise and informative. Thank you.
thank you sooo so much Shirene!
I love him !! I love your videos,. I'm so glad you were recommended.. :)
You do a better job than many videos. I like your laid back teaching style and please don’t think you are not good at this....I sure think you have a lot of courage and do very well. I learn a lot that I did not know, please keep it up!!!
Wow, thank you so much Diane! I appreciate the encouraging feedback a lot :)
Hi Lisa I enjoy watching you are a very good teacher. You are patient, entertaining you make it interesting. Know you got this!!
