I love that little project pouch your friend gave you, the colours are gorgeous.. that blue is beautiful. I’m watching this at 7am drinking my first coffee! 😂 Nice to see your sewing room. Mine is a hot mess that I’m hoping to get finished in time for Christmas, which Christmas remains to be seen! 🤦🏻♀️😂
Thanks for keeping me company as I roll and bake cookies this morning. I laughed out loud about your coffee - now to be forever known as magic bean juice lol. 💕🇨🇦
Woke up freezing at 2:30am ! Made coffee to warm up and now I'm wide awake lol. I can't clean my mess lol i have 7 more donated quilt tops to do then, I can get the 375 quilts out!! I started with 633. Actually no room to clean 😂😂😂 have a wonderful day 🥰
Love your vlogs, they are such fun. I’d love to know where you found that bobbin winder. My long arm machine always overwinds the bobbin and I end up wasting so much thread.
Thank you so much! That winder is a lifesaver! It’s the one that comes with a handiquilter machine but it can be purchased separately. I’ll link it in today’s vlog.
Haha. I’m not always organized but I am so glad you enjoyed the video! Truthfully when I’m not organized I don’t get anything done because it crowds my mind.
Love your sewing room mine is in my kitchen dining room so not that much space… but the mess I can generate is amazing lol. I do have a big sewing table and most of the time I can’t see it for fabric etc. I do clean it up and put stuff away when starting a new project today will be spent finishing Christmas stockings for my local Nicu. Only 12 left to make. Then will need to clear up and rearrange my space so I can give my Goddaughter a sewing lesson, we are making bags this weekend. Your vlog has helped clear my mind as to how to do it lol. Thanks Amy you’re a bright star on a dark winter day.❤❤😊
Oh my goodness. Thank you. Your stocking project sounds so special. What a sweet gift for those families. Have a lovely day sewing with your goddaughter😊♥️
I loved seeing your room! I’m curious, what brand of longarm do you own? If you had to do it all over again would you purchase the same machine? I’m currently researching them with plans to purchase one as soon as I can make up my mind! The only thing I’m certain about is that I’d like to get one with an automation option. I’ve been looking at the Handi Quilter as well as the Innova. I would appreciate any advice or suggestions you may have! I’m loving these videos! ❤
Thank you! I have a Handi Quilter Avante (which they don’t make anymore). It does NOT have the automation which I now wish I did have but it is so very expensive to add after the fact. My good friend Cheryl has an innovative and loves the industrial/professional feel of it. She quilts for others professionally and essentially recouped the cost of her machine in about a year. If you like both machines It might come down to which dealer you prefer. If I were buying again I might buy a handiquilter- they’re super user friendly or I might look around but I would definitely buy a 20-24” throat space whichever brand I chose.
Hey, Amy! I’m e been working on painting crown moulding that I’ll be installing this week. I sat down to eat lunch and catch up on videos. Yours popped up-Yeah! I’ve run out of room to paint until tomorrow. However, I should be organizing my walk-in closet/laundry which is overflowing into my bedroom. It’s a work in progress….I’ve slept on a couch for the last 3 nights, because m6 bed is piled high! Your cleanup is pushing me in the right direction! 😁 Keep smiling, and stay well! Muskoka ON 🇨🇦
Loving your curly hair. I had to give up "later" piles, boxes, stacks; because later never seemed to come. I now have, fifteen minute, half hour, and hour piles, boxes, and stacks, lol Your exuberance is back, and it's wonderful. Happy Holidays.
No coffee start in this house, coffee would give me a violent migraine, but my sewing room needs a big clean up too. Unfortunately it’s not even a quarter the size of yours. Do you find loads of stuff in your space that shouldn’t be in there. I do.
Oh I’m sorry about coffee and migraines but am really glad that you know it’s a trigger! Always! There is always random weirdness in my space. Because it’s right off the living space and usually stays relatively tidy something always tend to get stowed there ‘for now’. 😜😊
Ok I have to seriously thank you! I recently bought a used long arm and it is going well but….. you changed my life- put more than one quilt on ata time. , I have so many to do and that is the bomb. I will do that next …. So excited to get so many done
Another great vlog! Wish I could move as fast as you seem to when you speed the speed up. 😂. AMA….what you did in this vlog was actually done in two days, correct? You didn’t visit a class and clean your room the same day?..
Mr Know it All. I find his work exactly as he intends it- provocative, perverse , and a little revolting and it fascinates me. He is definitely not everyone’s cup of filthy tea 😜♥️
I try to clean up my sewing space after every big quilt or several small ones. Otherwise the clutter becomes dangerous. I also MAKE myself do some sort of household chore before I start my next project. Otherwise I would never do any chores. 🙄
AMA @@amydement. Just replaced my rotary blades at big box store. Poor quality - wore out in a night! Recommendations for your favorite rotary blades. (BTW: I know Judy Stewart from our Quilt Guild.)
Thanks for all your great content! Love the giraffe panel! Glad to see I’m not the only one with multiple projects at once! Happy quilting! 🧵🪡🎉💃🏻🎄
Thank you!😊

Oh my goodness! That’s a huge project! I’m in awe!
Wow! That's a lot of quilt tops. I'm super impressed
♥️
@@amydement. thank you. They're for the displaced families of the fires. I'm a little slow, but I'm sure they'll appreciate them. 🥰

Hello Beautiful! I like to start a new project with a little tidying first. It breathes a little fresh air into my space. Happy sewing! Fran
That is such a great idea! 😊
❤

Giraffe panel, do you know where I can get one? Who is that by?
Let me go through my cards from the show and I’ll get you a link in the next day or two! It’s awesome right?!

I wish I moved that fast too! 😜😜😜

No coffee here either. In fact, I’m not crazy about the smell either. However, hubby loves it so…
Casey won’t drink it either but he does love the smell 😋😊♥️
Loved it. Am in the UK so Amy with breakfast for me ! Keep them coming!

What John Waters book are you listening to?

Sounds like a good system!!!
I would probably have enjoyed the John Waters book.
