Thank you Macky. This is a new way, for me, to make unique fabrics. In Alberta, Canada we need good insulative materials for a great part of the year. How nice a vest would be!
Much luck with your channel. Tip from my pin weaving work: if you lay lightweight fusible interfacing glue side up for your underlayment, you can press it all into place and it won't shift during stitching...
New quilter, I am sooo happy to have stumbled on your channel !! Words cannot express how much you have opened my heart to the world of quilting and art !!!!! It is like being a child again waiting for your next video !!!!!
This is exactly what’s I’ve been looking for! I love how you describe stitch length and threads used! I hope we can see closer view of your beautiful work. Thank you!
Thank you! So interesting and what a wonderful artistic project. I can’t wait to try this with my scrap strips. I can’t imagine all the thread colors that I will be able to use.
I like the idea of the weaving. It might have been good to show the back of the piece after doing you different stitches (easier to see the stitching) , and show it close up. Thank you. I'll look for more.
Hello Miss Cilliers, I’m so happy I found your channel. I searched for Fabric cards and came across your Fabric weaving when I scrolled down, I love love the colors and the fun fabrics you used to make all your weaving designs. I completely forgot I wanted to make cards for the Holidays lol I dug out all my happy color fabrics along with all my busy design fabric and I’m going to have some fun, I only wish I had a fancier machine with the free motion quilting foot then omg I would not sleep I would create create create. Again thank you for being so creative and I’m looking forward to seeing more videos soon. Have a BLESSED Day LJF
I am very excited about trying this fabric weaving too. So glad I found this channel tonight. I will try it tomorrow but I wanted to let you know that you do not need a formal open-toe free-motion foot (sometimes called a darning foot) for your machine to do this kind of free-motion work. It is great but I used to teach free-motion embroidery and know there is a jumping spring that works with any machine. It is inexpensive and looks kind of weird but is a very good substitute for a formal foot. I got mine from a Bernina dealer. It will give you the freedom to try this with any machine now, fancy or not. Have fun!
When I make a lattice crust on pie I use the traditional method of folding back the odd strips halfway, lay down the cross stop, unfold the odd strips, fold up the even strips halfway, lay down a cross strip, unfold, and repeat. Then I rotate the pie 180* and finish the other side. Would the same technique work with the cloth? It seems it would be quicker and easier.
Because you have a Bernina...do you ever use the Bernina Stitch Regulator with feed dogs down, so that the free motion zig zag stitches don't have that "pulled" out stitch look when u come to the points of the zig, etc or do the turns or curves? thanks for the weaving tutorial.
Hello Macky, I just happened upon your channel and I am absolutely hooked! Your work is so stunning and interesting. I would love to add your weave borders to a quilt. Would you maybe consider showing us how you add your weaved border on a quilt? Is there a certain woven strip length that you create or recommend before sewing together? Thank you for sharing your beautiful work and techniques. 😊
That looks very interesting! I would’ve loved to see a close-up of the end result. I wanted to check out your blog but the link does not work unfortunately.
Everyone starts somewhere. Would have liked to see stitching up close, couldn’t hear you at all while you were stitching so missed most of the instruction after that. But appreciate the effort and inspiration. Good luck.
While I can appreciate all that went into making the video and the effort you put into the piece, I've just got to say, the finished piece is just a... complete mess.
Lol. I felt like that yesterday after.watching someone make trousers. I was baffled by the endless adulation in the comments. I like this woven fabric though.
why do people who have a BERNINA. sewing machine ALWAYS say MY BERNINA It drives me nuts seriously. It is a ridiculously expensive machine and it has become a status symbol, like really? so silly , just a show off thing for goodness sake.
I am loving this technique! Thank you! And ...God bless you!
I AM SOOOOO HAPPY TO HAVE FOUND YOU‼️ Now I know what I will be doing for the next MANY hours! Thank you,!!
Thank you Macky. This is a new way, for me, to make unique fabrics. In Alberta, Canada we need good insulative materials for a great part of the year. How nice a vest would be!
Thank you dear lady for a fantastic video and explaining everything so well, your work is beautiful 😊🦋
First time I have watched and enjoyed it. I'm just learning to sew

Thank you
Great idea.
I am sold...I loveit and look forward to learning more from you.
Please show how you use beautiful pieces of work. I want to make a bag with these

Thank you! So interesting and what a wonderful artistic project. I can’t wait to try this with my scrap strips. I can’t imagine all the thread colors that I will be able to use.
Glorious design. Thanks so much for sharing! Marietjie living in a faraway land…
Macky! You really inspired me with this video! All of your videos show amazing work you've done! I love it all!!!
I am in love with this technique I have just finished sewing clothes and tote bags so I have endless scrapes what a wonderful way to use them
Thank you. I will be playing with my fabric again.!!!
What a great way to practice and create a gift at the same time, Thank you
Luv this. Thanks for sharing!!
Can’t wait for the next video.
Love these. I’m wondering what ways you use these pieces. They would be great for making bags, but I could use other ideas.
Macky, thank you! You're such a lovely person. ZW is in my heart too!
I love watching you. Thank You so much. Keep creating!!😘
Love your work, thinking I might slow stitch a piece like this. Thank you for sharing ☺️ ❤️
Thanks Macky for a lovely technique. I'll play around with your method.
I just found you a couple days ago and enjoyed making a square like your boarders.. so inspiring! Thank you for teaching and sharing!
Thank you! So much fun!!
I rather enjoyed this video. The block has alot of character and potential for projects.
This is so inspirational. My head is just full of ideas of how I can use this technique for projects. Thank you ❤
Oh my Dear Lady. I hope you will make many more videos. You are so easy to learn from. Bless you.
Love it. I will try this something different. Great tutorial ❤️ from Pennsylvania USA
Bless you sweet lady! Best of luck on your channel!
Wonderful fabrics to weave! 💗 Good tips for doing the stitching. Tfs 🇨🇦🙂

Oh..... I’m on my third piece . I LoVE your video’s. Please do the on the next level you mention in this video🤗
Love this tutorial, thank you. I have a fun idea now to start sketching and deciding how to make my idea come to life. Tyfs!
This was very interesting. I really enjoyed it. I just have to try it
So beautiful 😍

A closeup of the sewing part would have helped tremendously. Love this new technique .😁💖

Yes please, me too - and thank you. 😊 From Denmark.
Excelente!! Mil gracias
I just found you, loved this video, thank you, you got a new Sunnis in me today! 13/09/21
That looks very interesting! I would’ve loved to see a close-up of the end result. I wanted to check out your blog but the link does not work unfortunately.
Very interesting
Do you do all your blocks with free motion etc. Then make your rows, sometimes? For making your quilts?
I might try it :)
Thank you, 🌱💛
Just found you! I’ll watch more
Can you put them together to form blocks?
I love what you are doing but how do you use the pieces after you are finished?
I'm excited to try my first project. How do you finish the edges for a framed art piece?
Thanks Macky. What was the measurement of fabric to start. Can one use larger pieces?
8” x 10” Foundation fabric.
Why not use a zigzag or decorative stitch to catch both sides?
What do you use these creations for, or are they more of a learning of the various machine stitches?
Very interesting. What do you do with the finished pieces? Frame, stretch, add to more squares?
I've made placemats
Muito bonito. Parabéns

I'm thinking you would be happier sooner than others! I love the Macky's final result! Think I'll try it!
watched to the end, pointless exercise all that stitching for what, senseless piece, will not be returning
Lol. I felt like that yesterday after.watching someone make trousers. I was baffled by the endless adulation in the comments.
I like this woven fabric though.
