One of my favorite Amazon finds
The Gobok eye massager is bliss for my tired, dry eyes. This very moderately priced massager offers three heat settings as well as 5 modes of massage. The device also has built in bluetooth so you can listen to your own playlist while relaxing and enjoying the 15 minute massage. Rechargeable with a USB C cable included in the purchase. I found it on Amazon and I love it and highly recommend if you are experiencing dry eye like I do.

Appliques and Narrow Spaces. This little iron solves BIG challenges in my hat making

The Cricut Easy Press Mini gets into all the tight places in my hat making business.

Interfacing choices are improving! Sewing hats built to last!
Переглядів 6723 місяці тому
I found a new interfacing to fall in love with and it is easy to get via Amazon, cost effective and has proven more consistent in high quality than it's competitors that I have been using for years. The brand is called "Plantional". It is fusible on one side with what the manufacturer calls "Black Glue". Black glue has a tint to it so this interfacing is not pure white but rather has a greyish ...

Ruler bundle. Clear rulers with non slip feet are high quality and high value

I am in love with my new rulers. For the price of one ruler pretty much anywhere else, you get a set or 4-7 pieces. Amazing quality and value. They are on my list of must have tools for a sewing studio. Designed primarily for quilters, these rulers will be so useful for anyone who is sewing. I put them through the paces with my rotary cutter and have been using them ever since. I just love them...

Thanks but you skipped right by the hardest part, which is getting it started...
I might have to do another project and use this tool. Right now switching to wool and fleece with my hat business but will def try to get a project with these attachments again!
@@Madcaphatsreviews Thanks, will keep an eye out for it. The first 2-3 inches of mine come out curved.

This didn't work for my auntie she was continued being billed and paid hundreds and hundreds of dollars for this product and it only made the bugs worst I will not recommend anyone to try this mess
I hope the company has made things right! This is just my personal experience, it worked for us to help with mosquitos and we only needed to buy one starter kit for the season. We did not subscribe to any plan or anything. So sorry to hear this bad experience. What type of bugs is your auntie dealing with if you don't mind sharing. Tori
I used a strong magnet to hold in place because I don't have a hole for a screw on my machine ua-cam.com/users/shortsbdYjCUjukhc?si=Exm8mF82zJXfdoUi
They are great! We have been using them for our seams for over 20 years ... used to just buy a magnet block in the hardware store but I find these covered ones with the tab to lift them is alot more convenient when I am doing lots of sewing!
I would like to take a moment and thank you for your video it was very well done. I've never used one of these before and I just got mine in and wanted to see a video that would help me understand how it works and yours was A++
Thank you Tobi, you made my day. So glad you found this useful!! These require a little practice but once you get the hang of it they make lovely even seams. I use mine on every project. Cheers, Tori
This was really helpful and thanks so much😀
Thank you so much for watching!!! Tori
Searched for an hour and I can’t find anything that looks like the brand you are saying. what is Johnic? Links go to a brand called wenice
The jonnick comes with a ruler and a long side that is usable ... I only can find it from the Canadian Amazon which will be a .ca ... here is the local link but it might be that the company does not ship to the country you are in. Fingers crossed! The other one by Wenice is great too ... I have both! Jonnick - amzn.to/3WPxHqt

Vintage Kenmore 158 series are common. The problem is that the accessory screw hole in the bed is approximately 2.25 "inches right of the foot. These would simplify my projects with the proper size accessories.
It is a shame that all machines do not have common features like the screws and the size of the metal plates. I have a vintage Kenmore iron by the way which I love. Just bought a new Kenmore iron to keep handy as a backup. Thanks so much for your comment! Cheers, Tori
I used a big heavy duty magnet to keep it in place because I don't have a screw there either ua-cam.com/users/shortsbdYjCUjukhc?si=Exm8mF82zJXfdoUi

Please ma how can o get it 1mm
That is very very narrow and I am don't have a tool that produces such a small edge except for my industrial merrow edge serger. IT is a serged edge rather than a rolled one but that is what I use for such a narrow edge. If you find something please let us know!! This set I have is 3 mm as the smallest and you would only use it with a very fine fabric. Thanks for your comment, question and for watching! All the best, Tori

It took me about 30 minutes to get the hang of it ... the thinner the fabric the smaller you can go with the roll. Thanks so much for your comment, Cheers, Tori

Just recently got into leatherworking as a hobby and was looking for a good cheap desk or table to setup with. Perfect timing it seems!
Good luck with your new passion!!! I have never mastered working with real leather, just the faux stuff which I sometimes use for cap visors. This is a great table and I am so please with it. Thanks so much for watching! Tori
This has been a pleasure to use. One of my new top ten favorites for the sewing room and very budget friendly! Links in the description.
