- Today I am making some clusters. These can be used to embellish pages, as tucks or to embellish envelopes, tags, pockets and journaling cards.

Omg I have done no house work or anything but watch this it’s Amazing
Hahaha crafting beats housework!!! Thank you so much!
Oh my word.... this is the funnest video's. I love what you did with the sewing and then put on buttons. Habd sewing is the best. Love from Idaho 1960
Thank you 😊
In my opinion a video is never too long if it’s done right. You do it right so don’t fret over it !!
Thank you! 😊
Luv your work,when I do my buttons I sew them on to a little piece of fabric and then I glue them on. Much easier then trying to sew through the thickness of the paper.
Thank you so much!
What an excellent idea. I am certainly going to try that. Thank you for sharing. Because I was a sewer long before I was a paper artist, may I give you a couple of hints. For doing the sewing around the cluster, drop your feed dogs and just use your hands to move the paper around. It saves you turning and stopping a lot. It takes some practice, but works great. Another thing, I would use the machine to sew on the buttons. A lot faster and easier. Good luck. Again, thank you.
Thank you so much 😊
Of course, it's you !!! I haven't crafted in so long I've forgotten how to do everything, so I wanted to do some fabric/paper clusters, but needed some inspiration, and while I was gathering materials, I was looking at the thumbnails only, saw this one, and immediately clicked -- and then both was and wasn't surprised it was you. It's hard remembering the pandemic. You literally saved my life at that time by posting videos daily. And not just me. And I laughed at the noisy kids and water over the balcony. Today, we are both moved. I hope you love your new place as much as we love ours. Our "new" house was built in 1931, and is on the historic register. It's just a little cottage style, but I love everything about it. The door knobs are original, and sunlight pours in from all of the large windows in every room. Our neighbors are wonderful, and there's a perfect spot for my garden, which did well last year until the horrible heat came and killed everybody's gardens. The tomatoes literally boiled on the vine. That's enough of me. You are soon headed for Australia, but LuLu is now grown up, and I bet she's a looker, and boys are gonna be swarming around her like bees on a daisy. You need to get you one of those nerf guns -- that shoot the sponge pellets -- with a sign attached: back off, mate -- ha. So now I have to go and actually watch the rest of the video. That's such a good idea to do it all in layers. I got the backing fabric -- just beige ticking -- all cut up in size, now I'm going to enjoy the rest of your video and layer as you are doing. Take care -- Patricia.
Sometimes doing that reminds me of things I have that I've kind of forgotten about:)
I did not know little piles of scraps could be so pretty, I love them. Thanks for this video.❤️🦘🙏🏻
Thank you so much 😊
Such fun to use scraps
Thanks
It never ceases to amaze me how glueing a bunch of pieces of torn paper on top of each other can look so cool. You made such a unique collection of clusters even though you used pretty much the same papers on all of them. That is where your creativity and flair for color and shape come in.
Thank you so much!
I’ve viewed a number of “creating cluster” tutorials and this is by far the BEST collection of finished items! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thank you so much!
That embroidered pin cushion in the background is so pretty!
Thank you so much!
Amazing to watch you go from scraggly little bits of paper to beautiful embellishments!!! (Of course you do have an amazing collection of different colors of book pages!!) Absolutely lovely! The sewing may not be necessary, but it does add another dimension. I might finally be feeling like it’s time to go unearth mine! Thank you always for such a gentle & happy video!
Thank you so much!
Very beautiful gorgeous clusters I 💕 it
Thank you! 🤗
@@roxycreations679 you're welcome
I’ve never seen your trick to tie a knot, I’ll have to try it!
Thank you so much!
Lol. Please don't take this the wrong way, I absolutely do not find you boring (quite the opposite) but your voice is so soothing today, I actually took a little nap there for a bit. Now to rewatch the bits I missed!
Hahaha too funny! Thank you so much!
I think that is a compliment.
I love this, can't wait to try it myself.....
Thank you so much 😊
Brilliant idea! Love it! Thanks for some inspiration!
Thank you so much 😊
The little fabric basket is so cute! I love that you hand-sew various items...adds so much charm!
Thank you so much!
So Fantastic...great way to make many at once...And I LOVE hearing Lulu speak Italian...Bella!!..xo
Thank you so much!
It's like making a master board. What a great idea.
Whoa... That sounds so funny. When they let us out. LOL!!!
Thank you so much!
I woke up this morning and this awesome video was playing…and it was just before you added color to it. It looked like a yummy cappuccino with all the creamy brown colors swirled together. Mmmmmm! Now I’m going to make coffee! Thanks for the wonderful wake up…and the brilliant crafting!
Thank you so much!
Rachel, really fun and relaxing watching you make these little nuggets!
Thank you so much!
This way of making your snippets was fun to watch. Loved the bent needle. Everyone knows if it is bent it is mine. LOL. After teaching sewing skills for over 30 years, sewn elements on your journals thrill me'
I want to do more sewing. Thank you so much!
Much quicker way to make clusters. Loved every one you made...... beautiful. TFS, Rachel. C.xx
Thank you so much!
Wow! What a brill idea sewing them all together ! Beautiful. 🙂
Thank you so much 😊
You are so incredibly kind and understanding, when you said maybe someone couldn’t carry on with your order. You give me something new to work on faster than I can even comprehend! My mind was buzzing so much last night I woke up at 4:45 and was wide awake.
i don't mind waking up so early if it's due to inspiration ,lol! Thank you so much!
Such a brilliant way to spend some time with scraps (they multiply at night I think) and set yourself up for future projects. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
So much quicker than making them one at a time! Great video, enjoy listening to you as you craft❣️
Thank you so much 😊
excellent video!!!! full of great ideas. Thank you
Thank you so much!
Hello Roxy, I really loved the way you created your cluster page. Putting them all on one pages and doing them all together was a smart move. Thanks for that great idea. Adrienne
Thank you so much!
The clusters are so adorable, and so simple, if you are talented and have scraps and the list goes on.....but really these look so easy to make I am thinking maybe to try it with paper only as I don't sew or have materials scraps....! improvisation, I do have glue and lots of bits of paper! Another beautiful project, thank you Rachel!
Thank you so much!
I have not heard of doing clusters or seeing it done but you do it well. I am going to give this a try. Thank you so much for the great idea of using up scraps that accumulate so fast. I am so glad I found you.
Thank you so much!
Roxy, these are just beautiful! I love the idea of buttons and little flowers! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!
I had to come watch you Rachel after Gayle made clusters like you did. Such a great idea. So cute. Thank you for sharing 🤗
Thank you so much!
This was very fun to watch! Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait to try it!
Thank you so much 😊
That is a great idea creating cluster on a sheet of paper like that. Gives me new ideas, thanks. Because of my schedule, I watched it in three stages, but that is alright. It is good video.
Thank you so much!
I loved working on this clusters with you. It's like having a very calm friend sitting beside you, chatting and crafting. Thanks, Rachel.
Thank you so much!
At the beginning that piece of paper reminds me of a naan bread :)
Love this video! Production line creativeness has given me ideas about things I want to do, and saves money using what I have. The tags are beautiful, love the layers and textures. Thanks Rachel.
Thank you so much!
This is so good. I made up a sheet whilst watching this video. Am yet to stitch around it as had to go and get dinner ready. I am so excited to see how they turn out tomorrow. Thanks again for a lovely video.
Thank you so much!
So glad the number of new cases are going down! I saw an article about a 101 yr old man from Rimini that beat it. That should give everyone some hope. The county in my state that we are moving from just put out a stay at home order, so our cases in the states haven't peaked yet. Back to the vid because it's my daily dose of normal! Hugs
I love these Rachel! These are so fun. If you are going to make more snippet rolls can you please film that? I so much enjoy watching these little projects
Sure no problem! Thank you so much 😊
Loved this way of doing clusters. Your videos can never be too long.
Thank you so much 😊
LOVED this!!! i learned to LAYER MORE!!! i learned SO MUCH from this video! now on to your recent video about making mass tags! thanks!!!
Thank you so much!
I love these clusters, great addition for a journal. Also thanks for the tip on doing a knot when hand stitching that was super and will definitely be trying that when I next sew.
Thanks so much
I love this way of making clusters - I'm still new to all of this and haven't attempted clusters yet but this is how I'll try it for sure! Also love your videos and all of your wonderful creations. I was an exchange student in high school and I was in Australia for about 6 months. The Australian accent is one of my favorites and makes me think of how much fun I had when I was there.
Thank you so much 😊
This is a great way to create clusters. They are just beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
I really like this way of doing them too Rachel. I do the fabric clusters one at a time with a cardstock base but I have trouble with the mostly paper ones as well. This looks like it would be much easier. I also love the stitching instead of the staple. I always had to find something to cover the staple because it looked so modern. Thanks for sharing and long vids never bother me, so no worries from this end on that count! Lol hugs!
I found this easier than doing them individually. Thank you so much!
I agree with you that this is a genius way to do clusters! I would find this much easier than one at a time holding them in your hands. I’ll have to try this soon! Thanks for sharing, Rach! Love and hugs to you! 🤗❤️
I found it much easier and faster to do! i can't wait to see your take on it!
Great way of making clusters. They're so pretty. Tfs.
Thank you so much!
The clusters are fantastic. Each one is so beautiful and will be wonderful additions to your journals.
Thank you so much!
I love these! Very clever gluing them to a sheet! Hugs❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much!
Hi Rachel. Enjoyed this very much. I haven’t tried paper clusters yet, but I may have to now!
I was sewing a mask today, on my big fancy heavy computerized machine. Guess what I did? Sewed through my forefinger! Luckily didn’t go through the bone, but the tip 1/4 inch of the needle broke off IN my finger! 😳. Hurt but it hurt a lot more when my husband to pull the needle out. The very tiny tip was sticking out of my fingertip. I have forceps and they grabbed on. He pulled really hard to get it out. OMG it was awful! 😖. I’ve been through worse. Was dreading thinking I’d have to go to hospital to have it removed! It’s sore tonight. Back to sewing tomorrow. I was working on my hubby’s mask.
Take care. Hi to Lulu and Stef. Hugs. 🤗❤️💕🤗
Oh my word Martha! The pain!!!!! I think I would probably faint! I hope you're ok! Please take care!!! Thank you so much!
What a Great idea to use leftovers.
Thank you for the inspiration ❤️
Thank you so much!
I had no idea what you were doing, but I stuck around because, I love listening to you. LoL you are very entertaining and the end result of your craft was beautiful.
Love your accent :) your stories and how you keep us updated.
Thank you!!! Keep safe!
I wasn’t sure either!😂 thank you so much 😊
Just watched this a year later. I don’t do mixed media and journals anymore but did make one from a magazine once. I am basically finer arts now but do a lot of cards, a little mini quilt sewn onto a card blank. These clusters are a great idea for a card. I hope I still have some papers left over. Thanks for sharing Rachel.
Thank you so much!
@@roxycreations679 I meant to say "fibre" arts, not fine. I can't draw a thing, maybe a stick man!
I admire your patience.
Thank you so much!
I sat and made some of these! Thanks for the tutorial and I’m loving your videos
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for keeping me company while it was late and the house quiet, while i was tatting. I would have never thought to make these like that on one piece of paper what a great idea, I will definitely be trying this. Thank you for all the inspiration, these turned out beautiful.
I found it much easier this way. Thank you so much!
Wow this is brilliant! I love doing clusters like this. I am anxious to make some. I am so happy about Italy. Things here are rising, my husbands brother in law has the virus in New York so we are all praying he pulls through. Enough of that. Thanks for sharing such a fun video 😍🌴staysafe
Oh my it's terrible when you start to know people with it. I hope he's ok and not experiencing severe symptoms. Stay safe! Thank you so much!
I've been watching a bunch of cluster videos to get inspired, before I start my own mass make cluster project. I just wanted to know that of the several videos I've seen so far, this has been the most inspiring! Thanks.
Thank you so much!
I made 9 clusters today following you as you went along and it was really fun. I made them out of paper from my US citizenship papers so it has a historical theme.. freedom and declaration of independence!
They sound wonderful! Thank you so much!
thanks Rachel, I have been making clusters with you this morning and found it very relaxing. Stay safe and love to you and your family. Xx
Me too! Thank you so much 😊
This is a marvelous process for making multiple clusters. I love them.
Thank you so much!
Really enjoyed your take on making clusters!! I will try this. Your clusters are wonderful💕
Thank you so much!
Sew the thread through the button. Tie the thread off then glue the button to the paper. It will look sewn on. Saves work. You may want to use stronger glue like Fabric-Fix.
Love love this!!!
Thank you so much!
I was so absorbed in what you were doing that the time just flew by. Great way to make clusters. Can’t wait to see them in a journal.
Thank you so much!
Can't wait to make these using this method! TFS
Thank you so much!
Great to see you in better spirits, keep busy. It's hopeful for the rest of us if you all are seeing some improvement in Italy.
Thank you so much!
Such an easy project but what a great impact. Love love love
Thank you so much!
Beautiful idea!
Thank you so much!
Love this idea !!!
Thank you!!
Most entertaining! Thanks for sharing your talents!
Thank you very much!
Oh my goodness... I love the clusters. I was skeptical of doing them on a sheet of paper when you started, but how you finished them... OH, BEAUTIFUL!!! Thank you for all your videos.
Hahaha i was skeptical too! Thank you so much!
Wonderful, I will have a go at these, I usually make mine singlely. Thank you. Xxx
Thank you so much!
Love, love, love this method. What a fast and fun way to do multiple clusters. Thank you. I'm going to try it today.
Thank you so much!
Coucou
J'adore. Merci pour le partage. Xoxo
Thank you so much!
I love watching your videos while I'm in the bath as your voice relaxes me so much.
I love how you make the clusters on the paper, love them x
Thank you so much!
I love this technique, thank you for sharing!
Thank you! 😊
I enjoy listening to you chat while you craft 🤗
Thank you so much!
OMGoodness this is sooo cool. I am going to have to do this when I get scraps Thank You Rachel
I always have so many scraps! Thank you so much 😊
Oh Rachel… I absolutely loved this video!!! The way you made your clusters is so brilliant! I really love them… I am so inspired I have to try them! Thank you so much for sharing this method with us. Stay well and safe, big hugs 🤗 Laurette
Thank you so much 😊
Love this idea of all in one page very inspiring tfs xx they are gorgeous xx
Thank you so much 😊
Love how you made these. Seems much easier. Can’t wait to try
I found it easier. Thank you so much!
What a great idea! I love all of your videos and wish that I could’ve sent you a birthday package, but I have been staying inside. I live in Ohio and don’t watch the news, but get updates about what is going on around the world by watching all of my crafting friend’s videos. Thank you and Lulu for keeping us all inspired during this weird time! 😘😘
I hope you are well! Thank you so much 😊
These are lovely, it looks so relaxing to do too 🌹
Thank you so much!
You have both delighted and inspired me. First video of yours I have seen. I look forward to more. Ty!
Thank you so much!
Really great idea and so beautiful. I love how you layer and using your sewing machine and stitching. What a great idea. Xoxo Denise
Thank you so much!
I love these. Awesome way to do clusters.
Ooooh Rachel,when you said about your machine and how long you’ve had it I cringed. When I do that chances are whatever I was talking about gives out on me. Not that I’m superstitious. 😆🤷♀️ I’ve been watching each stage, stopping the video, rushing out and catching up then rushing back to start watching again, I’m exhausted. I don’t usually do things this way but today for some reason I’m restless, so a bit of sitting, a bit of crafting and all over again. As usual yes your project is cool bananas.🍌. Mine, not so cool. Thanks for your company. 💕
I expect eventually it will give up but for now it's soldiering on! Thank you so much!
Love all that video I will be making some today thank you so much for sharing have a wonderful day xx
Thank you so much 😊
Loved this idea Rachel!! I am excited to try this. But easier too. Stay safe!!
Thank you so much!
Hi Rachael, I miss listening to you so much, but I made it today to see you create today. Nice job. Love adding the buttons. Hugs
Thank you so much!
This is a different way to make clusters. I’ll have to try it and see what I think. Also I’ll have to see if I’m successful at making the knots, as you did. It looked nice and easy. TFS. 😃
Thank you so much 😊
a really nice method fro making clusters thanks for sharing
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing this lovely idea!
Thank you so much 😊
Love this idea 🤗 had to duck down, while you were sewing. 😂😂 That needle came a bit close. So happy you had a virtual family gathering ❤️
Hahaha, funny! Thank you so much!
Interesting to hear what we thought COVID was going to do from almost 2 years ago. Little did we know we’d still be in the middle of it!
Who knew!
