  • That's a lot of diy pillows and just in time for fall decor. I've sewn a lot of pillows before but this is my first time diy-ing them with zippers and I am very happy with the results. The mud cloth pillows are fabulous but I do love the antique quilt-top pillows as well, they are so unique! All of these throw pillows will be going to The Factory Antique Mall for the fall reset very soon!

    Beautiful! BTW, my wife and I visited your booth in the Factory all the way from Oklahoma City, OK. We had a great time. I bought the green Thumbprint picture to go with our 45 thumbprint goblets!!! Your booth was looking great and we were so excited to see it in person.

    OMG your cat sneaking in behind you at 1:58, so funny! He's a little ham. The pillows turned out wonderful. Can't wait for the booth reset!! I also love that you are putting out more content on TH-cam.
    Thank you

    Love you, you are always inspiring and a joy to watch.❤❤❤PS rotary cutters are more of a pushing tool rather than pulling. ☺️And a self-healing mat underneath it helps it to stay sharp for longer. I love those clippies, too!❤️

    They look very high end and professional. If I lived closer I would snap up one of each 😢. Can’t wait to see the fall reset! You rock girl.

    You did an amazing job! But I have to say I literally got goose bumps when you panned the camera across the wool quilt ones, because all I could think about was the person that made it back in the day, and how happy they would be to see that other people get to enjoy it still today. I especially love rescuing old handmade items that I know someone put their heart and soul into making!

    Hi Amanda, Just found you and love your pillows. I checked your Amazon links and didn't see pillow inserts in bulk. Would you be willing to share where you purchased those please ? Thanks so very much. Now to binge.

  • @sandramoore3317

    Hi Amanda, love the pillows! I was wondering where you got the box of pillow inserts from.

  • @TheWhimsicalWorkshop
    @TheWhimsicalWorkshop ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Quick tip for you. Use a elmers glue stick to glue the zipper in place before sewing it. No need for clips or pins for this step.

    What texture does the wool fabric have? I've never seen something like that before.
    Background music that's just instrumental is always best. Lyrics are distracting and seldom add to what's being shown.
    I'm curious what the market is for these. It seems like an obvious item, like something available too many other places. Hopefully they resonate with people browsing the booths, and become steady sellers!

    I have antique monogrammed linen handyowels from my husband great grandmother. I've been planning on making boudoir pillows but never got around to it. AND I just saw a bunch of these vintage handtowels at my local thrift store for $1 !! Also, I have my mother' bridal handkerchief (beautiful wide lace edging) and I was going make a pillow for wedding rings during theceroneu. A couple of ideas for small pillows from vintage linens.

  • @barbhutchinson5907
    @barbhutchinson5907 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The pillows are fabulous and I just wish I lived closer so I could buy some. I actually think your prices are great, maybe even on the low side. If you ever decide to sell them online it would be pretty easy and cheap to ship them wrapped in tissue paper, folded and shipped in poly bags. You’d sell bunches of them to all your fans sitting out here drooling over them! What a great job you did making them!❤❤❤

    I adore every one of those patterns; you did a phenomenal job; and yes, I would snap up a few if you could ship them. I bet you'll get such a positive response that you'll be encouraged to do so -- soon, I hope!

    I was looking at pillows on Poshmark today and I watched your video about a month ago and I noticed these pillows that look just like your mud cloth pillows being sold for $200. They are a 20 x 20.

    Beautiful work. Hope to score some of your pillows soon. Quick question - I’m in the market for a new sewing machine. I don’t need lots of bells and whistles, would like to steer away from computerized. Good and sturdy is what I’m seeking. I’m wondering what machine you use and if you recommend it?. Thanks

  • @marcypotter5495
    @marcypotter5495 ปีที่แล้ว

    Shipping is sooooo hard! I feel your pain there. Factoring in the expense of the shipping materials, plus time, plus the shipping costs themselves making pricing a nightmare. Then, it takes way more time than you think to pack things (especially breakables). It's all just so much when you're a one-woman show doing this as a part-time gig. I applaud you for your TH-cam content! I've thought about it so many times, but just can't bring myself to do it. One person only has so much bandwidth.

    @christinetarquin3773 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very nice pillows. My 1st thought...can you put a beautiful silky tassel on each corner? I think it would be the finishing touch and add a bit of elegance.

  • @michellejames5953
    @michellejames5953 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great job! How satisfying to be done. Do you wash and hang the fabric to dry before sewing them? I always worry about old material having mice on them 🤢
