So happy to hear that. I love the Cathedral window. Do post a photo when you have finished, would love to see it. ❤️

I machine stitched as far as possible, and any remaining edges that still were not secure, I hand stitched. Happy you loved the idea.

See if you can flare out the seams a little where they all join underneath. This can eliminate too much thickness and avoids the lump. Sometimes if the seams are all pressed in the same direction it can create this problem.

Thank you. They make a lovely keepsake for future generations too.

Thank you! I am in Australia, but have relatives in Texas, lovely to hear from you!

@sewsmartwithelizabeth286 Hello!! I would love the pattern to the casserole carrier. I have tried looking for it and cannot find it. Where can I purchase it?

Thanks Karon 😁

They are great for children at Christmas or just in winter! 😁

Thank you for your kind words. ❤️

Hi Tina, The Fabric I bought from a Spotlight store. It is called Rainbow Galaxy, No. 9330458365675

Thank you for your kind words. At the time I had it, I was one of very few survivors globally, and no treatment was available. No MRI's etc. But my cameraman, husband, was my carer. He did a great job, with our two very small children at the time, raising them for quite a few years. I am glad you enjoy the tutorials, it's so worth the effort when people respond as you have.

Thank you!

Thank you for your message. All measurements and lengths to be cut are on the pattern, which is in my Etsy shop. Kind regards, Elizabeth

@@sewsmartwithelizabeth286 there’s a width measurement but not how much is needed as far as length. And nothing is mentioned in the video. That’s where I’m confused

@@ckb81 If you refer to your pattern, you will see that I state the amount of fabric required, and then you can follow the cutting instructions, on page 2. hope this is of help to you.

@@sewsmartwithelizabeth286 all it says is “2 1/2” strips for binding across fabric” so it doesn’t say exactly. Is it just one strip across a 45” fabric? Is more needed? Multiple strips? It’s not clear. Most pattern instructions give a clear amount. I guess I will figure it out when I get to that point.

@@ckb81 I apologise for not making it absolutely clear to you. Across the fabric is your normal fabric width of 45". You will need to cut 3 strips of 2 1/2" width, totalling 135". This is more than sufficient for your binding. Thank you for pointing this out, I appreciate feedback, and do my best to make the patterns easy to follow. If there is anything else I can help you with, don't hesitate to get back to me.

All the measurements for the bag and pockets are in the pattern, which is available in my Etsy Shop - the link is in the description above. Hope this is of help to you.

There are a few ways to make these, but I will look into this for you, and hope to do another video.

Thank you, I really loved making this one! I had intended to give it to a friend of my daughter's, but she wanted something brighter, so didn't. So I still have it!

Thank you - makes life a lot easier that way!

Hello Mamas, Thank you for your comment. If you look in the description above, you will see a link to my Etsy shop. Click on the link and it will take you to my shop. Scroll through the patterns until you find the Peg Bag. You can buy the Peg Bag pattern and then it can be downloaded to your computer. There are instructions to tell you how to download the pattern on the web page. However if you have any problems downloading the pattern, please let me know and I will email a copy to you if you have a computer. I hope this will help you. Kind regards, Elizabeth.

I just used off cuts for the squares, and unfortunately, I don't have the name of the other fabric now. It was from my stash which I had had for quite a while. Sorry I can't be of more help with this one.

Be sure to send photos - would love to see them!

That's a very good idea - If you do make a framed piece, be sure to let me have a picture!

My niece has done that with some of my sister's Doilies that she inherited from our Mum. I still use mine.

Thank you, glad you like it!

I will take that as a lovely compliment! Thank you!

Thanks Karon x

What a beautiful picture of love and commitment . We need more people like you two in the world.

You might try the Op Shops, they often have doilies you can purchase! I have often used these to fill blocks. ❤️

Thank you! To me it’s very special. 😁

I would love to see it when you do make it. Lovely to hear you are teaching her. It’s not difficult, and she might enjoy all the pretty fabrics too. ❤️

I quite agree! They were so talented and without our modern day accessories!

Thank you. Bringing our wonderful stitchers of years gone by into new generations. 🤗

Thanks Karon 🤗

Thank you love my doilies!😁

This was my intention, we have a large family and only a limited amount of pieces, so I put a piece in each block and then all the girls can have a part of Grandmother, or Aunts, to pass on in something useful.

No, all are just washed and pressed carefully before I used them. I like the beige/ecru shades. I do use coloured, embroidered doilies, but not as often as the cream shades. Elizabeth

Thank you! I have a new doily quilt coming out shortly, so hope you enjoy watching that.Happy Sewing, Elizabeth.

Thank you, I love to find easier ways! Elizabeth

Thank you for your kind words, I often wonder how the ladies who crocheted them managed, with much less sewing equipment than we have now, to produce such beautiful pieces. Elizabeth

Hi Katie, Thanks for your question. You will find all the fabric required and how much of each piece to cut in the Pattern. Regards, Elizabeth.
