I am not for sure, would have to go back and watch. I always just do my nails at home lol!

This actually doesn’t make it stiff at all. It helps seams lay flat and get rid of deep creases. I have a fabric prep spray that I use to make my fabric stiff before I cut my fabric. I was thinking of FINALLY making a new video and showing that recipe as well as my fabric prep steps and how I cut my fabric. Would you be interested in a video/videos like that?? Happy quilting!

@@quiltedfromtheroots - yes definitely interested

So glad you found it helpful! I went back to watch, the iron I am using isn’t a steam iron, so it must have been some background noise. Sorry for the confusion! Steam will shrink the paper so you definitely don’t want to use any steam!

Thanks for watching!

You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful!

Haha! No it’s actually a dark navy color. I would have to find the paint can but can look it up for you if you want me to. I know it is Behr.

Glad you found it helpful! One of my friends/teacher showed me that in Tampa!

Glad it was helpful!

You're most welcome!

I made it! I got some ironing board cover material and added a couple layers of insulbrite and added a backing and then put some binding on it. It worked really well for a while. I could roll it up out of the way, but then it started getting brittle. I made one out of plywood that I use now. There are you tube videos out there on how to make one. I need to make a bunch for our guild’s quilt show, so maybe I can record it to show you how to make one!

Haha perfect!!

So glad it was helpful! Needles and thread…this varies depending on who you ask. I like to use a 50 wt thread or 60 wt if I am working with really small pieces. I like to use a size 70 needle but sometimes I forget and use an 80. I think it is more important to use appropriate needle size to match your thread weight. Aka Smaller pieces, thinner thread, smaller needle. Hope this helps!!

Haha! That is hilarious! Glad you enjoyed the video. The hot Hemmer would be a great idea to use!

I have the hot hemmer. I will try this.

Thanks for the question. I have heard of dunking fabric and letting it dry. I just don’t have the space to let it dry so I have never tried it. This is better as a wrinkle release spray and getting seams/blocks to lay super flat. I have something else that I use to prep my fabric. I think it would work better for that situation. I’m hoping to make a video on this soon so keep an eye out!

Hahahaha! It’s just the cheap stuff; I save my Grey Goose for the evening! 😂😂

Yay!!! So glad it was helpful!!!

!!!!! Oh my goodness! Where do you live? I actually use this to get my seams/blocks more flat and as a wrinkle release that spray starch doesn’t get out. I use something else in place of spray starch to prep my fabric. I am hoping to make a video soon to clarify the difference. Stay tuned!

😂 glad you enjoyed it!

Haha! I have no idea! That’s why I’m a quilter and not a scientist 😂😂 I just call it magic!

Hmmm…it has been so long since I made this I would have to go back to watch and see lol! I still struggle with Kona. It’s like the selvage is so tight it really shrinks in compared to the rest of the fabric. This is a video I really want to remake because I have changed a few things on my process. When things finally slow down a bit, I will definitely add this to the video list! Keep an eye out!

Thanks for the sub! Glad you enjoyed the video!

This is true. I haven’t made a video in a while but when my life slows down a bit, this is actually a video I wanted to make. I use this for more like a wrinkle release and “Flatter” spray to really get my seams/blocks to lay flat. I actually use something else for fabric prep. I mix equal parts Mary Ellen’s Best Press, water, and Terial Magic. Maybe I can try your solution in the video for comparison! Thanks for the tip!

You are welcome! Glad it was helpful!

Great to hear! Glad it was helpful! I got it on Amazon I believe. Let me see if I can find the link….

Click on the description in the video and there are a few links already listed! Let me know if they don’t work/aren’t available anymore!

Glad you like them!

I don’t currently have a video for that one. It is part of a Jacqueline de Jonge pattern. I have had a lot going on personally and kind of put UA-cam on hold, but I just reached 800 subscribers and I promised I would make a video if I reached 800. I have another row to do like the one in the photo and I can include it in the video, but I won’t be able to give the pattern away. I had a few other comments/questions, so I was thinking about making a part 2 to this video. Would it be helpful for you to watch this being made??

@@quiltedfromtheroots Yes! I would love to see you piece that. I have more trouble with very pointed triangles when paper piecing than anything else.

Okay! I will add that into the part 2 of the video!! I also had a request for how to know how big to cut your fabric if the pattern doesn’t tell you what size to cut the fabric, so that will also be in the video!

​@quiltedfromtheroots thank you! I'll look forward to it!

Martelli rotary cutter. Comes in a left and right handed version. I prefer their 45 mm. It still cuts through a TON of layers easily and I feel like I get a straighter cut with it vs the 60 mm.

You're very welcome! Glad it was helpful!

You’re welcome!! Glad it was helpful!

No, it is like Flatter spray or Mary Ellen’s Best Press, but less expensive. I am actually thinking about creating a new video about this spray versus what I use to prep my fabric (which is more like starch). Would it be of interest to you? It makes the fabric stiff like starch does where this spray helps get rid of wrinkles and all the seams nice and crisp!

Some of my friends don’t drink alcohol but they love this spray. It works BETTER than starch to remove wrinkles and get perfectly flat blocks and seams. It is cheaper than Mary Ellen’s Best Press and Flatter spray, which is more what it is like. It doesn’t make your fabric stiff like starch does.

Thanks for watching! Hope your day gets better! 🤪

Hi Linda! Yes, you want to make your fabric quite a bit larger than the “shape” you need to cover, because it needs to extend at least 1/4” beyond all the edges of your shape and you want to have wiggle room so you don’t have to worry about being so precise. Most patterns will tell you what size to precut your pieces of fabric. Maybe I could try to make a video about how to know what size to cut your fabric if the pattern doesn’t tell you. Would that be helpful to you? Hopefully that answers your question! If not, feel free to reach back out! Another quick tip, in the settings on UA-cam, you can actually slow the speed down so that the video is slower. Maybe this could help in the parts that are too quick. And don’t forget about pausing! Just don’t give up! Paper piecing is one of those things that always confused me, but once it finally clicked, it actually became my go to for when I don’t want to have to think a lot about what I’m sewing!

You're welcome!

Thanks! Yes, it makes a big difference!

Great! Glad I was able to help 🤗

You are so welcome! Glad it helped!

🥰I hope you enjoy it! It is perfect for getting your blocks, units, and seams to lay perfectly flat! If you like your fabric to have a little body to it, I like to prep my fabric with another mixture: 1/3 Best Press, 1/3 Terial Magic, and 1/3 water (although I usually add a tad bit more water to make it a little less thick for my spray bottle!) Hoping to do a video on this one soon!

You are very welcome! So glad you enjoyed it! Yes, that is why I knew I couldn’t use steam, lol! Thank you for the kind words 🥰

You’re welcome! So glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

Glad you enjoyed the block and technique. I hope you enjoy my other blocks as well!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!

🥰 you’re welcome!

Thanks! I’m glad you are enjoying them. You’re welcome!

I got it at Road to California, but they have some on Amazon!

Just search for Misting Spray Bottle

Thanks, Michaela! Maybe I can teach you to quilt AND cook 😝😂
