I found a "cookie/bolster" combo in an antique store, with all the bobbins and patterns and book and everything -- for $35!!! I've had it 20 years, and it was old then. It's pretty cool.
Wonderful tutorial! I am taking a two-part Bobbin Lace course, and showed up to the first class with a "normal" pillow -- needless to say, it did not work (sad face). After lots of research, it seems that no one can send me a pillow in time for the second course meeting -- but your instructions have saved me! And now I'll have my own pillow -- made by me. Thank you so very much! New subscriber :)
This is a great video! I have a cookie pillow that is just a foam disc and I know it's not going to last long and I'm going to need to make a new one. When I taught myself Torchon a couple years ago there was hardly any good bobbin lace videos on youtube. It's great to see a new channel. I hope you keep making videos.
It's beautiful, I liked it. I made one, it's Round shape. I used store bough foam, wood and the cover is removable with elastic and washable, I have it for about 21/22 years already. it's in great shape and condition. If the elastic stretches, I can change it. And/or fabric cover too. Done some projects. And have washed the fabric cover.
Thank you do very much for the thorough instruction. May I please also thank you for the low key music, not sudden & crashingly loud. I'm also grateful that you omitted music during talking so your voice can be clearly heard. Much appreciated!
This is awesome, I was literally just looking at supplies for making one and got tired of trying to guess at stuff and came on youtube and this was the first video on my subscriptions page. Must be a sign! Thank you so much for this, it is much appreciated!
Te encontré ayer, y me encanta tus enseñanzas, se que este tutorial es de hace 3 años, pero te estoy inmensamente agradecida, por el, intentaré hacerlo, gracias de nuevo, muchos besitos desde España de una nueva suscriptora 👏👏💙💙🌹🌹
Yes, I should probably do one. They’re more complicated, and there are lots of different styles of roller pillows. But, yes, I need to add it to my list. 😊
Nooooooooo, not messy corners! 😭😭😭 Lol kids, cannot live with them, can’t live without them. Lol love how you kept those moments in at the end 👍 Question, how are you able to make sure kids don’t hurt themselves on pins, sewing and other dangerous to kids tools? I still avoid much of my sewing as my 6 (almost 7) year old tends to run and jump on me at the worst of times (with a needle in my hand or a million pinned object on my lap!?!
Evelyn Rojas Hmmm, good question. And not easily answered. I take lots of precautions for unsupervised and unintended access. So, everything is in closed boxes and/or high up on shelves. I have a sewing table, but it is workbench height, so they can’t readily see what’s going on unless invited up. That being said, as long as they are calm, I do allow them to “play” with my pincushion, sew with needle and thread, or be involved when I’m using one of the sewing machines. I do want them to know that pins are sharp and that they can have fun with them but they have to be careful not to get hurt. But the key word is “calm.” If the collective kid energy is too high, and there isn’t going to be any focus, then I stand at the counter and keep things generally out of reach, or just do something else. Nap times are a blessing. 😊 Mom theory is so hard, because each kid is so different (I have 3, all under 6 years old) and they are all changing constantly. What might work great one day, totally fails a month later. I try to keep flexible.
I’m a professional custom interiors fabricator, plus multi crafter . I continued to sew, and craft, after the births of my 2 kids, as I was self employed at the time. I made accommodations to my workspace, like putting boards around the base of my industrial sewing machines, working during naps, or when dad was home, plus teaching them from a young age not to play with my tools. Then, as age appropriate, I taught them how to use my tools and machines. Egghead worst that happens was a self hair cut, and the careful cutting of holes in a slipcover. My kids never hurt themselves They are adults now, and do not Really sew, but they learned some basics and continue to use those simple skills.
Watch out for cats 🐈 too they love bobbin lace stuff to play with...speaking from experience hugs and kisses Lynn Weasenforth 💖 do you use bee's wax for your pins to go in easier?
Using cork is a wonderful idea thank you for the tip 😊

Wow! What a great find! 😊
Bryce! I was watching Enchanted Rose Garden and she linked this video and gave your channel a shout out! Was so excited when I heard it!
😁 I just watched it and my husband looked over and said, “Hey! That’s you!” Hahaha

Fern Moore Thank you 😊 Yes, there is a lot more lacemaking, historically inspired sewing, etc. to come (as quickly as time and the kids allow 😉)

So relaxing watching you sew that up!

Ha! How cool is that? 😁 You are very welcome!
It's always super cute when your kids come and "help out" it your videos.
Matilda Taube Hahaha. Thanks, I think so too. 😊

Thank you 😊
Wow, this video was great and very easy to follow. I can't wait to make my own.
I may try this method for re-covering my ironing hams as they have a wood base.
Very beautiful,thanks for showing this🤗🌸🌸
I really liked the outtakes, too! :)
MsKatastrophenBarbie Hahaha, thank you. Me too. 😁 “#momslife”
This is brilliant! I must try it.
Also, in one of your future videos, would you mind showing how to finish the work in a clean way? :)
Love how you showed your work. I need a roller pillow Tutorial please
They’re a little more complicated, but I should do one. 😊
You're a really good teacher!
Thank you for sharing
so beautiful!!
Enabled closed captioning good videography- I subscribed!
My grandmas was filled with horse hair. It smelled. Great video
Hey, i loved that video, would you consider making a tutorial for the pillow with the tube insersion? I am a bit scared to make one of those myself
Yes, I should probably do one. They’re more complicated, and there are lots of different styles of roller pillows. But, yes, I need to add it to my list. 😊
Thankyou for this tutorial, I'll be making one very soon
Amazing
Thank you so much for this! Can you use buckwheat hulls as a filler, instead of the straw, wool or cork board?
I don’t see why not! 😊
Great idea. Thank you
Nooooooooo, not messy corners! 😭😭😭
Lol kids, cannot live with them, can’t live without them. Lol love how you kept those moments in at the end 👍

I, too, was uncomfortable with the messy corners. Oh well. Maybe naptime was expected to end soon! Nice video otherwise!
Any chance you will show how you made a roller pillow?
Probably 😊
❤️Thank You❤️
Watch out for cats 🐈 too they love bobbin lace stuff to play with...speaking from experience hugs and kisses Lynn Weasenforth 💖 do you use bee's wax for your pins to go in easier?
No, I’ve never tried it. Might be worth a shot. 😊 Do you use it? I don’t know if I’d want to get wax on the lace …
Hello and thanks for this video. I am guessing the cork you used is about 1/4" thick? So 3/4" total? Did you find this to work well?
Yes, and I've found that layering lots of thin layers conforms to the shape I like better than fewer thicker layers, if that makes sense.
@@BryceHistorically Yes that does make sense. Thank you!
Thanks for a really great video. One question - how thick is the pillow when completed? Thanks so much!!!
It’s about 1 inch at the edge and about 3 inches in the middle. 😊
Thanks so much!!! Can't wait to get started. Thanks again!
Did you make your pin cushion?
Why, yes I did. 😊 Upcycled salt shaker.
Would like yo see a video on making one of those!
Where did you get that gorgeous pin cushion?
I made it out of a salt shaker 😉
What’s the size 12x18? Just want to be sure confirm please
@@BryceHistoricallyI thought you stated 18x22 ?
Yeah, I just double checked. It's about 18x22 inches. 😊
I made a lace pillow with Lego as a base.
Hahaha. Awesome 😁
