    A tip for filling your iPad stands, if I make anything I need to stuff I just get a two pack of pillows from PRIMARK for £4.50 way cheaper than wadding and does exactly the same job 😜

    I love the material you will make your children pj out of. The I pad holder is fantastic idea. I wish I had seen the cardholder idea when my girls were young. We loved playing cards. Raun you’re a hoot and I love your smile it always brightens my day.

    Thank you for all the great gift ideas Ruan and sewing inspiration for the holidays. I’m sure your boys will love the PJs and tablet stand. Love the sewing foot pad idea and might have to make one of those myself! I’m sure your friends will be delighted with the sweatshirts too. I’m always so last minute with sewing my gifts so thanks for the motivation😃❤️

    • @theyorkshiresewgirl
      @theyorkshiresewgirl  ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for the inspiration Ruan. What lucky friends you have! I am sure they will be thrilled with their hoodies. I like to make shower hats from my scraps for little gifts, the Stitchy Bee has a tutorial which I have used loads and I like the fact it is something that gets used every day! Thanks also for always making me smile ….

    Another tip for the iPad stands…. You might want to put some walnut shells, dried beans, corn or rice in for a little weight to help hold it in place also, some grippy fabric for the base?!? What great ideas and color combos for all your gift ideas….BTW I’ll take the green page hoodie! 😜. Best of luck to get all your projects completed . 😊

    I love the sewing foot pad idea and I have all the pieces to do it. My sister just bought a serger. Think I will make her one and maybe a matching little bag for collecting the threads and off cuts. Thanks for the idea. Your girl gang hoodies are going to be fab!

    • @theyorkshiresewgirl

    At 1:40 you are saying: We have all grand ideas! Somehow I was not concentrating and only listening to you in the background, so I misheard that as: We have all grandad ears! You can imagine how surprised I was. 😉🤣🤣🤣 As always you made me chuckle, your videos are always very entertaining. And I love the idea for this card holder, I might make one for a nephew. Thanks.

    Loving your xmas tree headband Ruan 😹🎄 Fab ideas. Just heard about this challenge in your vlog, so thanks for that and for all of the ideas. I've been out of action for past few months due to house renovations, but my sewing room was reassembled yesterday and this challenge has given me the push to get my sewjo back on. Cheers😻

    Some great ideas, Ruan. I missed the baubles fabric last year but picked some up recently in Minerva sale. I have made a Southbank in it - I thought I could save on a Christmas tree and just stand in the corner! 🤣

    That plastic, grippy stuff for your foot pedal? It is awesome for gripping hard to open jars. You can find patterns on Pinterest to make them. The grippy stuff is sold as shelf liner on my side of the pond. A practical, useful gift.

    • @theyorkshiresewgirl
      @theyorkshiresewgirl  ปีที่แล้ว

    Gentle Suggestion on keeping your Juki foot petal from sliding. I adhered 4 felt furniture slides, with adhesive backing. It was simple and has kept my foot petal in place for several years. When time is short, this was a quick solution that has worked well. I absolutely love your vlog! Linda Brown, Oregon USA

  • @cecilehoare3053
    @cecilehoare3053 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ruan, I don't know if you have them in the UK but I use flexible plastic cutting mats for the bottoms of totes, they are super easy to cut with scissors and I would suggest using a circle of that inside the heavy interfacing. With interfacing if it gets folded it won't hold it's shape as well. The ones we get at the dollar store has two flexible mats in one package for $1.25 and usually they are clear or during the holidays they come in red and green too. I jumped over to their tutorial and came up with an idea. If you add three strips of the ridged interfacing or whatever to the bottom and sew between them length wise you could put a velcro tab on the front side of the last in the middle then fold it backwards to make a triangle and put a tab of velcro on the back of the holder and you will have a free standing card holder! I'm making a set for my father in law!! We play 5 Crowns and you have up to 13 cards in your hand at the end so these are perfect! You should make Tamlyn and Rachel the foot pedal stoppers and since you have them cut out for them...just saying! lol I'm going to make one for my Momma and one for me! hahaha!

      That's exactly what I was thinking, but they might get lumpy or sag under the weight of the iPad. I think you'd either have to stuff them really full of fabric scraps or use mainly scraps to stuff it but finish it off with a bit of wadding. Somebody else suggested using something (rice, dried beans, etc.) to weigh it down and I definitely agree with them. Just my two cents, FWIW.

    Ruan, I love your vlogs. But (and I really hate to say this) I’m just sew challenged out.
    Too much pressure guys! As much as I love watching fellow sewists, I’m having to start zoning out of watching all the vlogs for my own sanity. It’s just ruining my sew jo.

    • @theyorkshiresewgirl
      @theyorkshiresewgirl  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I’m sorry you’re feeling like that. There is absolutely no pressure at all to watch all the vlogs or take part. These are just vlogs for inspiration. If you think they don’t inspire you then you can choose not to watch them (I can’t watch every vlog from everyone I subscribe to so I pick and choose which ones I prefer for me at that time). Lots of people are loving all the challenges as it makes them feel part of a community and involved in something but if it doesn’t make you feel this way then you can obviously choose not to watch 👍🏼
