Thanks for the great tutorial!! I made one today and am excited to try stitching with it. I have rather large hands so the purchased metal one i ordered was a bit small and I kept pushing the needle into my hand. I bet this one works much better!
Wau!!!! Vivo en España, Barcelona y voy a empezar a aprender Sashico contigo. Me gustaría hacer una manta con retales de vaqueros para mis hijas, con bordados Sashico.
Thank you so much for these 2 videos on how to make the thimbles. I can't find any of them for sale, not even the online shops that will ship to my country. I am definately going to make the leather one as I have experience with this type of material. I'm thinking of maybe inserting one of those little metal disc's used to pair up with phone magnets instead of another piece of leather. I would also like to try the metal button version but I don't have any and I can't buy just one or two so I'll have to find an alternative like some kind of bottle cap...maybe. Anyway maybe instead of being covered all in fabric the outside could be made with a bit less fabric so it doesn't completely cover the inside. Then you could cut a circle of leather to fit just inside the rim and glue it. Would probably last longer than the fabric. This is just a suggestion, I can't wait to binge on the rest of your videos. Thanks ❤😊❤❤
Thank you for your ideas and suggestions💕💕 I think it’s a good idea to adjust and improve the thimble for your preferences😊 I should also try to think about how to improve it👍
Brilliant! I have watched both videos and am excited to make some. Question..... could you also use real leather, or would it be to difficult to push a needle through?
Thank you for your comment😊 I’m actually not sure if real leather is too hard to stitch through, but the commercial one is, I believe, real leather and it’s just single layer so you may not need to make layers with real leather. I suppose it depends on the thickness of the leather❤️🧵🪡
If the leather is not too thick or stiff you could stitch it by using an awl before every stitch or if you have an old mechanical sewing machine you might be able to stitch with that. Most machines made before the 1960s are sturdy enough to sew through light leather. If it's thicker or because of the layers you would have to use a leather punch to remake all the sewing holes.
Ah! It's like taking magnesium and putting epsom salts water in one's cream. All, is healed and nothing more breaks. That, is this thimble. It sorts it alllll out. 🙏
That’s amazing😍 Some people tag my account (with @) when they post the photos of their works on instagram. I think it sends me a notification…I think. Or you can DM me on instagram👍
Thanks 🙏
I have used a beer cap from my husband’s beer bottle instead of the metal button.
It worked well!
That’s such a great idea! I might try it too😆❤️🧵🪡
Thanks for this suggestion. Now I don’t have to waste time and $ running to the fabric store for a covered button kit!
That makes so much sense. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you💕💕
Great tutorial, thank you. I made one with a token coin and mini hair elastic. It's a little thick because I use denim.
Your thimble sounds great❤️ Thank you so much for sharing a great idea😊
I highly recommend this. I can't do without it.
Thank you💕❤️💕❤️

That’s wonderful to hear! I’m so glad it worked out😊💕💕
I love this one best
I use it all the time! It’s really useful😊 Thank you for watching❤️

Thank you! I love your idea❤️❤️
😮 How did you do that?
Thank you so much this looks great!
Thank you! This one is my favourite😊🪡🧵❤️

That’s exciting😊💕💕
Very clever like your work peter Scotland xx
Thank you 😊❤️🧵🪡💕
Thank you great video ❤
Thank you so much❤️😊
Thanks! I think I’ll make one
Thank you! I’ve been using it all the time. The curved shape of the button really helps to hold the needle (at least for me). I hope you like it!
Here from Boise, great show, we are with you till the end!!
Thank you👍😊❤️🪡🧵
Simply brilliant. Thanks for sharing your ingenuity by making and posting this video on TH-cam!
