    My grandmaw, God rest her beautidul soul, was a seamstress extraordinaire. She made all my church dresses and cute short sets. She NEVER let me use her fabric scissors to play with for this exact reason!!❤❤❤

      My mother had a pair of fabric scissors she used for sewing. And a rotary blade for cutting the fabric into shapes for her quilting. She forbade us kids (my two brothers and I) from touching them, let alone using them for anything. She didn’t want her precious scissors dulled by anything.
      Then one day my younger brother cut his finger playing with her rotary blade and mom was not pleased with me as I was supposed to be watching him. He actually needed stitches, poor guy.
      Nobody touched her blades or her scissors after that.

      My grandmom was too and she made all of my church dresses too and other stuff. I use to love playing with all the buttons she had. I wish I’d learn to sew on the machine before she passed away❤

    Great demonstration of a ladder stitch! It's extremely useful for closing holes and attaching pieces with a nearly invisible join, so cushions and a small couch are a great project for practice.

    The thing about having different sissors for fabric vs paper is totally true! I used to work at a craft store and I learned this while working there. We had fabric sissors that we cut the fabric with and we were instructed to never cut paper with it because it dulls the sissors! ✂️

    Some of my best childhood memories are my mom yelling at my dad for cutting paper with her sewing scissors. She also had two pairs of sewing scissors - straight edge and pinking shears. She added in the rotary cutter to her arsenal when she began quilting.
    Loved the way the couch came out in olive green. It really did look like the inspiration. Maybe you could make one in Barbie pink. I also wish you could try and recreate the mojo, dojo, casa before Christmas and Ken’s Sylvester Stalllone inspired outfit. Hopefully Mattel would surprise us in time for Christmas. I would also like to find a Hummer or Jeep vehicle online Ken can fit in. I would like to surprise my beloved with this as a gift since he has funded many of the Barbies in my collection, going as far as to work in Toys-r-Us and Kaybee Toys back in the 90s to get the employee discounts during the Christmas season.

    Hey, Toya!
    I was wondering if you could do a doll room, based on the living room from The Simpsons.
    The simple designs from that series would be perfect as a simple and basic starter room for beginners that wants an easy DIY doll room.
    The colors don’t have to match with the Simpsons’ living room, but it could have a simple pattern and decors if you like.
