Julia it is so helpful for me when you narrate exactly what you are doing in addition to your TH-cam demonstrations. Just wanted to throw that out there there that it is extremely helpful to both hear and see your process. You are a total inspiration. Thank you so much.
Hi Julia! I wanted to let you know that this kind of video (where you lay all sorts of pieces down and free motion over them, plus add decorative stitches to recreate your own fabric) is my favorite kind of your videos. I've watched your channel for years and even bought from you in the past. I've wanted to try this method forever. Today is the day Julia! Today is the day! I have everything I need to make my own fabric. I'm on to do it now. Thanks for the nudge!
Hi Valerie, I'm so excited that you want to give this a try. This type of creative fabric can be used in many ways. I've showed this technique before- I'm glad you don't mind me repeating myself. Sometimes I just film my current project without trying to reinvent the wheel LOL! Thanks so much for your continued support.
I love using this technique! As I sew, I toss all fabric snippets and scraps, plus thread, yarn & embellishment clippings in those clear Dollar Tree shoe boxes - organized by color. When I want to make my own fabric, I just grab the boxes I need and get creative.
I love your storage idea! Those clear boxes are good for so many uses. I like the idea of saving yarns etc by color as well as the fabric. I'm going to do this! Enjoy your day!
Thank you! Cute. Very nice n fun!! I get it! I’m the same way with on the spot creativity! I think it’s my adhd mind. Do it all the time my entire life!!! Which is great!! :)
On the spot creativity is how I roll! I have learned to embrace it over the years. Some of my best work comes from not thinking to hard. Have a great day, Julia
Turned out beautiful! You are so creative, Julia. Isn't it amazing that when you add black and white accents to something very colorful, that it makes it "pop" even more. When the creative juices are flowing and you get another idea, sometimes you just need to take the "detour" and then get back to your original project -- that's just creative energy. Thanks for another great video!
I like how you call it "creative energy" instead of a "bunny trail" Ha! I agree with the black and white fabrics. They really help bring it together. Thanks so much for watching, Julia
I love new fabric made from scraps. Your brain works like mine, “oh, look a kitty!” 😂 I still want to try this. Thanks for the reminder! Cute shirt and bracelet!
thanks Julia for reminding me of this technique! I have a HUGE basket full of scraps from mask making. They will be perfect for making "new" fabric to make fun stuff ! The possibilities are endless. I always love your uncomplicated way of demonstrating all your techniques & projects.
Hi Julia! Love this project! I'm glad that you didn't totally cover the background fabric as it is a beautiful design element! Thank you for sharing this technique!
Hi Julia....I've got the scraps, netting, ribbons, solvy,....so what's holding me up? Tonight it's the possibility of some strong thunder storms coming up from the South, along with its world famous heat and humidity. Thank goodness for Central Air! Thanks for the good ideas. Love the wrist bands.
Hi Phyllis, The heat and humidity is coming here this weekend too. I'm sure my little shop will be slow. I'm glad I can bring my sewing machine and get projects done while I'm working my "other job"-ha! I think you sent me this quote ( a long time ago) "I was going to do something today but I haven't finished doing nothing from yesterday". I hope to use it in an upcoming project, I love it and it is the story of my life! I can waste more time doing nothing! Have a great day, Julia
Such a fun technique! I just finished doing a bunch of paper work. I'm so grateful to watch this wonderful video that you made. I hope you have a fabulous week ahead! Thank you for posting and your talent.
Love your channel Julia, I am always happy to see you appear ! You have such fun and inspiring things to watch, Thanks for sharing, its too long since I created anything.
I save my little scraps for this exact reason now! I just need to get some of that water soluble stuff! Your never ending talent and creativity are soooo fun to watch! You inspire me! 🤗 Thanks once again Julia! Brenda 🌼
I wanted a framed picture to match a quilt I made. I took some fabric scraps and fused wonder under on the back. Cut the fabric into strips. Took my scissors and sniped pieces onto a muslin fabric backing, being careful to have the fusible side down. After I got all the pieces on I fused them down. I sewed a large heart doily to the center. Mated it and put it in my frame that had glass. I didn't do any stitching to hold the pieces down because it had a glass. Hope this makes sense.
I’m really looking forward to trying this. I’m going to my local fabric shop today to see if they sell Solvy..otherwise I’ll get some toile or net. I made your llama design yesterday….such fun to do and use up some scraps…just need to add the writing…eek! Thanks again for sharing all your wonderful projects and techniques.
Hi Maggie, I'm so excited that you tried the llama! I'm going to dig that pattern out and put it on some thrifted items. Hope you give this project a try too.
What do you use it for? I like this idea very much - but to be honest, I have no ideas how I could use this kind of fabrics in my sewing (apart from applications). Maybe you could show what you did with die 🙏
@@stitchesbyjulia Oh...okay. I'm gonna check out Hobby Lobby and a sewing supplies retailer nearby to see if they have it or something close to what you've used. Thank you so much.♥
Haha! I go off on rabbit trails also!! Love this idea!!!
Yep- rabbit trails! I've learned to just go with it and not try to fight it! Thanks for watching, Julia
Julia it is so helpful for me when you narrate exactly what you are doing in addition to your TH-cam demonstrations. Just wanted to throw that out there there that it is extremely helpful to both hear and see your process. You are a total inspiration. Thank you so much.
You are an artist, so great, thank you 😊
I love the fabric collage and this makes such a cute t-shirt...thank you for sharing your wonder and amazement.

I love how your brain works! Mine is the same!!! Love all you create !!
I'm glad I'm not the only one that has a crazy brain. I've learned to just "go" with it! Have a great week, Julia
looks like fun, love the bracelet. tfs
Just love it. A great idea! Thank you for sharing.
i really look forward to your weekly tutorials. Love this and am going to give this a go. Thank you.
The bracelet is so delightful. I love your bracelets!!
Just about finished with this baby quilt. Next I am going to try this idea. Really liked it on the t-shirt.

Hi Robin, Yep- I can go down rabbit trails all day long and not get anything done that I set out to do! Have a great day, Julia
So creative!
Gosh these are so pretty and the uses are so endless. They're like pieces of art.
Thanks so much! Yes -each turns out so different and can be used in many different projects. Thanks for watching, Julia
Such a wonderfully creative and beautiful project!
Thank you for sharing!
I love this and what a fun way to use up small scraps.
thanks Julia for reminding me of this technique! I have a HUGE basket full of scraps from mask making. They will be perfect for making "new" fabric to make fun stuff ! The possibilities are endless. I always love your uncomplicated way of demonstrating all your techniques & projects.
I love this technique. 🐞😘
I love making the fabric as you showed us before. It's always good to be reminded how much fun it was to make and be creative with. thank you.
Great idea!
Hi Julia! Love this project! I'm glad that you didn't totally cover the background fabric as it is a beautiful design element! Thank you for sharing this technique!

T-shirt, bracelet and (why not a head band)?

Wow. This is beautiful. What type of netting did you use, and what is the brand name?
Hi, I am not sure of the type or brand. I picked a bag of netting up at my local thrift store.
@@stitchesbyjulia Oh...okay. I'm gonna check out Hobby Lobby and a sewing supplies retailer nearby to see if they have it or something close to what you've used. Thank you so much.♥
Good talent new sbscraebr 🎁🙏🌷👍
Thanks and welcome
