I made me some template squares of various sizes, three, six, and 9 in squares. I do have a 4-in square ruler and a couple of rectangle rulers as well, one is smaller than the other, I also just ordered me one of those turntable cutting boards. I'm slowly but surely stocking up on my materials and threads. I just got me a brand new machine for Christmas, I'm burning to use it! My mini singer wasn't quite big enough to handle the jobs I was doing. So my family was kind enough to pitch in together and buy me a brand new Brother. I'm so very happy right now! I started quilting about 7 years ago. The first quote I made, it was done all by hand. It took me about a year to do. I had started it right around the time my husband was diagnosed with cancer. I finished it about a year after that. Unfortunately, my husband didn't get a chance to see the final result. But it was auctioned off for a good cause. The girl who won the auction, absolutely loved the blanket. It was covered in kitties and puppies. Her dad told me it was perfect because she was studying to become a vet. So like I said, a good cause. I have made several quilts since then, but, I had to stop for a little while, because I was losing my eyesight due to cataracts. I've already had one surgery done and I have the second surgery planned for very soon. So I'm patiently waiting for a Time when I can get back to my sewing.
Also, I have seen many of your different videos and you have wonderful ideas. I plan on putting some of them to good use. Thank you.
You are a treasure to everyone. I hope and pray that you had a wonderful Christmas! Love all of your advice but, love you more. 💗
I received a lovely fleece throw. Great color. Nice and comfy. I'm embarrassed to say I started fondling the thick cardboard lining the gift, exclaiming how it was the perfect size for spray starching my fat quarters. I'll be making rice krispy treats every month for the next year!
I love this!! I have a large tag punch that I use to cut cards for gift tags!
I use the form boards or card stock for design boards also
Great advice🎉
Glad you think so!
Great ideas!
Glad you like them!
Yea! I love excuses to not throw things away!
Wonderful tips, especially the chipboard idea.
Thank you, Karen. I hope you had a Merry Christmas. All the best in the new year 2023!
Totally agree , thanks for sharing
I actually use all of those things for exactly the things you've mentioned. An additional foam chunk got covered in fabric and I use it for felting.
I thought of you today when watching a hexie tutorial. "Karen would recycle Christmas cards."
Amazing Karen 😍😍 🎉, thank you and happy holidays for you and your family plus little 🐶. Hope 2023 will be a new year filled with health, happy moments and LOADS of sewing 🪡!!!!
All good ideas! We don't have a tub to soak my cutting mat in and didn't know about cleaning it with electronic foam. Thanks!
Thanks Karen!
I love the EPP idea using Xmas greeting cards! Thanks, Karen
Yes! Indeed! Spot on! In TOTAL AGREEMENT!!!
You can also copy beautiful cards on to fabric to add to a Christmas quilt. OH! What about copying all cards and making a Christmas quilt for the year? You’re welcomed.
Made myself a binding tool from the press board. Makes the corners so nice and neat!
#3 also cover w fabric and use it to arrange your block & carry to the iron/ sewing machine. 💚 Love a good up cycle...all good.
Thanks for the tips! Love re-using what otherwise would have been waste.
PS you look fabulous!
I save all my heavy cardboard and use it as a base to wrap my fabric - it’s better then lightweight comic book boards.
These are wonderful creative ideas, thank you for sharing!
'card stock, firm form board, 'trace patterns, i.e.:
'My Three Sister Designs, "Frog Patch!:
Great idea! --and, who doesn't want the Frog Patch pattern to last forever!?
Thanks!
I'm always looking at 'junk' and ideas pop into my head of how to use it. I didn't know the foam stuff would clean my cutting mat! Thanks!
Best thing to clean your mats and it’s free
Excellent information 🤩 Thank you 👏👏🇬🇧
What a great ideas! Thank you Karen
Thank you for your tips!!
Thank you!
Great ideas🎄
Thank you so much 🤗
What great ideas 💡 I also save white tissue paper. It can be ironed flat with a dry iron and used for transferring patterns and stabilizing thin fabric. Happy New Years 🎉
Great advice thanks karen
Smart woman
love these ideas 💡
Good info
Thx
Love this!
Oh wow I just trashed some of those goodies how sad. Thanks for the info
Great suggestions! Thanks
Please tell me about your cutting board cleaning hack..just rub the polystyrene on??
Only we would actually hope to get stuff like this in our gifts! About the foam--needs to be the rough surfaced kind, right?
Yes
❤
Now I know why we are friends…😂
There’s a company that sells those electronic squares at my quilt shop. Same size you recommend but for $7!!! Nope, not for that price. Best Buy might let me have a square or two. I was wondering if an unused scrub daddy would work?
Not very well. It tried it.
@@JustGetitDoneQuilts thanks for the advice. I won’t try it.
Where get the foam for cleaning cutting mats
It’s upcycled from the padding when electronics are packaged
“Pressboard” is also known as chipboard
How do you clean your cutting mats?
I have a whole video on how to care for your mats th-cam.com/video/St6ZdNOjETE/w-d-xo.html
@@JustGetitDoneQuilts Thank you for sharing!
No worries, I don't know how to "let go" of something useful. 3rd generation of "I better not throw this away, it might come in handy". Lol
I’m really bummed. The trash was picked up 20 minutes ago.
Thanks!
