HOW TO become a MEMBER of this channel to get access to Instruction Sheets, Extra Videos for Members Only and small templates for mini projects - READ FIRST TILL THE END. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: these are not patterns for clothes and garments, these are instruction sheets. Step-by-step written instruction on how I drafted this or that project, so that you can follow along. The templates are ONLY for the small projects, like a basket, or coaster, or towel wrap and etc. I have also created sewing reference sheets and practice sheets, as well as sketches that you can use and some small scale garment parts that you can use to practice "slash and spread" techniques and dart manipulations. Instruction sheets are focused on the drafting process and less on the sewing sequence as that is shown in the video. Sewing steps can be sometimes written out, and sometimes referenced back to the original video. Additional Members Extra videos go into fabric selection, extra tips and tricks, best practices and some additional ideas from me. I try to prioritize Members comments, especially if there is a question. I try to post EARLY ACCESS videos for Members, meaning those are videos that you can watch earlier than anyone else and without ads :) Every week I post Members ONLY sneak peeks. We also have Members Only FB group for sharing project pictures and inspiration. I am not a teacher and this is not a course or a program.
THERE ARE 3 WAYS YOU CAN JOIN:
1) Click on the JOIN button next to SUBSCRIBE button (if you're Apple use you won't see it)
2) Go to my channel page (click on my channel name) and click JOIN on the banner
3) Link below
WHAT TO DO:
1) new window with Membership trailer will pop-up (IF you DON'T see a pop up, 3 things are going on: you need to update your internet browser, check the pop-up blocker on your web browser and disable it or if you're an Apple user you might not see it as well)
2) this pop-up window will tell you all the perks and price
3) UA-cam takes care of the payment. I do not process, nor I can see the payment info or any other specific information regarding that, if you have a question regarding payment processing - please kindly reach out to to UA-cam Help Desk.
5) If you watch from Apple (Ipad and etc) - Membership display is limited, meaning you still get all the perks, but you won't see the Membership tab after you join. Read below how to access the perks.
6) Once you have joined - head over to the MEMBERSHIP tab on my channel homepage to get the links to all of your perks! You will need to click on green "click to show perks" and the list will open up. ALSO - head to the Community tab to see latest Members Only Sneak Peek and additional info - Apple users, here you will find Members Extra videos posted. Click on any of the Members Extra videos and go the info box to that video - all Members Perks are listed there. Yay! :)
IF you clicked on the Google DRIVE link and all you see is 4 folders but you can't open them or you open them and they are empty (usually happens to Apple users) then you most likely have to clean your cache or enable some functions on your Ipad. Everything is working, all things are available - I am not tricking you. You just need to google for possible answers and see why google drive isn't displayed correctly on your device, it does not happen to every Ipad, but unfortunately I can't help you more as I am not an Ipad user. I have asked my friend to double check it for me - and Google Drive opens up smooth on her Ipad.
ALL MEMBERS PERKS are also posted underneath EVERY Members Extra video :)

What fabric do you use I make market and they end up floppy.
I love the way you teach! I have been sewing for over 60 years (really!) And I've sewed almost everything you can think of from diaper covers to swim suits, kids' teepees to ladies' business suits. But I still love to be told "this is super easy and if you can do it, I can do it!" I've taught people to sew too and I am bowled over by your ability to explain every step so clearly. I haven't been spending much time on UA-cam lately so I am extra glad this video popped up in my feed this morning. And yes, I love your voice.
Super cute ideas! For the elastic casing on the bandana, a fun technique is to use a safety pin to turn the casing right side out, but also have the elastic attached to the safety pin at the same time. When you turn the tube, the elastic is automatically on the inside. Thanks for the cute project ideas for my students!
Catherine, thank you for sharing your technique - it is well known. I just did not have a safety pin available :)
@@ThoughtfulCreativity I'm always inspired by your videos and didn't mean to offend. I didn't think the technique of turning the tube and inserting the elastic at the same time was widely known. Apologies if I didn't hit the right tone in my comment.
@@CatherineSews oh no no, not at all! I am so sorry, I did not mean for my comment to offend or seem like I was offended. Dear Catherine, just the opposite - I loved your comment, I just honestly did not have a safety pin handy (another fun fact - I don't have a seam ripper in my sewing room either) and that's why I did what I did in the video. Ah, I am sorry - most of the times the volume of the comment is so large that I answer in short phrases which might come off snappy, but I ensure you - I did not mean it!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity oh, thanks for taking the time for that sweet reply to reassure me. ❤️
One little extra tip: on the little tray made from a square, if you use Velcro or snaps or ties to hold the corners together, you can store it flat when you're not using it. That can be nice for storing them out of season (say if you make them out of holiday fabric) . It's also s nice little thing for travel, to keep your little things together in your hotel or guest room, like the room key, car key, pocket change, earrings, watch, etc. Then if you have used fasteners instead of sewing the corners you can flatten it out again to put in your suitcase.
What a great idea! I'm going to try both.
YES, could you please DO more videos using scraps for beginners Please? Thank You for teaching us about the above projects: all Great!!
Yes, I would love to see more ideas like the ones you’ve shown.
Yes please more great ideas. Also children patterns easy
Hello Alisa 😊 it was exactly what I needed to see your cheery video today. That mini tote is adorable!! I make drawstring bags for my granddaughters birthday parties she goes to. She fills them up with whatever gift she’s giving. I think all her little friends have one now so this will be my new birthday gift tote for her to fill. She is so proud to bring a handmade reusable bag. She always says no one else brought one. They only had paper bags lol. 😉 It makes my heart happy. Hope you have a great week. 🥰
What a sweet idea!
That sounds like fun!
You just showed me how to make a wide sweat band (to use under my straw hat while I mow grass). I will use terry cloth to keep sweat out of my eyes. I'll need about six, so that I can change often. Thank you for this much needed item (which is not sold anywhere arond here). I can make it myself.
I love you videos. I have learned a lot from you. There are a few sewing folks I watch everything they put out, but I think you are my favorite, because you show a lot of detailed techniques. Your voice is very calming as well. You are upbeat, positive and reassuring.
I have just found you, and boy, am I glad. I love to watch your ideas! Your tutorials are precise and educational. Keep the great content coming! I have sewn for years, but need some fresh new ideas. There is where you come in. 😁
Hi, love your channel and subscribed today . Do you get a template for the little bag as part of the subscription or is it something I draw ? Thank you
Gayana, hello there and thank you for becoming a Member! The template for the little bucket bag is a part of your Membership and you can get it on Google drive in the "templates" folder. To locate Google drive, please watch this Membership Trailer (till the very end, very important) and you will see how to find Google drive and all your other perks - ua-cam.com/video/uP9qSamkVkk/v-deo.html
I am admiring how you mix and match your fabrics on your shirts! You have such an eye for pattern and balance.
I know, right? I have a hard time with this sometimes!
I love the banana idea! I have super long & thick hair. I always protect it by wearing a head band or something over it when I drive or outside. I only wash my hair once a week & live in the country so I try to keep my hair protected as much as I can. This bandana I’m totally making. I’m gonna make a ton of them! 😍💜
Yes please! I love all the scrap ideas. Especially anything to do with hair!
As an absolute beginner, I am so grateful for your videos!! I still struggled through this simple tutorial but I had so much fun nonetheless :) I made the hair clips cause that seemed like a simple start. So so fun and I hope to do it more to perfect it :)
Been enjoying your videos, thank you. I think I missed the measurements of the rectangles for the bandana. We used to wear these all the time when I was a young California girl. Forgot about them. I have very thin hair having hypothyroidism, and I have hot flashes, so hats do not work for me. I will be making quite a few of these so I can change as-needed, daily, and to match my clothes. Remember lighter colors will be cooler too.
I love all of these ideas! And I hope you don’t mind me asking, but where are you originally from? I love your accent!
@Thoughtful Creativity
I am a new subscriber and absolutely love your personality, voice, and energy!
As a mom who had little ones once and was always tired, I know other moms your age would love to know if you have any secrets to how energized you are! Lol
On the bandanna instructions, do you tie the elasticized bands together by hand, or do you stitch them together?
I love the tutorial for the basket. I made one myself and even though I need to get better at working with bias tape, it looks great. Thank you.
Always delightful projects!! It is snowing here today (again). Your video is so cheerful and full of quick easy projects. Today, I especially love the little wooden box and the fabric dish. Wonderful holders for those items you are sorting. I think I will expend on the ideas...a larger box and the fabric dish. I am looking at my sewing table (really my dining room table) and realizing the fabric dish would be wonderful to hold the clips and another to coral the loose accessories of my current project.
Always thoughtful and always delightful. Thank you.
Love your ideas ! Thank you for them ., question? What pressure foot do you use please?
Pit a safety pin at one end of elastic, to put elastic through casing, much speedier technique.
It is so cute that you call a pin a pin needle. A needle has an eye, pins don’t. Love your videos, having a great time learning new projects. They are quick and fun. Thank you so much for these
Dear Alisa, really cute ideas - thanks a lot for sharing! Always looking for something little to gift and that is fun to make 😉 Regards from Germany Stephanie
Do you have a video making the bandana in smaller sizes for little girls? Tia
Thank you for sharing with us.
Wow Alisa, those were amazing, I love the little tote
Some great projects I look forward to trying. I love your creativity.
Sewing is relaxing and satisfying to create something pretty and useful.
Is there a printable template available for the basket pattern? I really love this!!!
Love, love, love all of these!! I can't wait to try them. I want to make the little flowers for my new great niece 💕
Thank you for these great ideas and for the templates.
My pleasure, Debbie! The flower clips are so fun, my little one loves them! I hope your great niece will love them too. Oh, and if you make colors more subtle/adult like, this could be a great stocking stuffer.
Would love to join but can’t figure out how. No Join next to subscribe on my iPad, and no link in banner. Other option?
Sharon, hi! Thank you for your interest. Just read in full what it says in the infobox , the third option - joining thru the link is right there, underneath the text.
I love everything you do and look forward to Fridays !!!
All of these items are really cute! Thanks for sharing these patterns!
Love you and your videos! On the headband if I want to not make it so wide it should still work right? 🙏🏻💜
Hi Carolyn, It should, just practice your measurements on a piece of paper first and you will be able to see what is going on :)
Yes! More simple projects for fabric scraps!!!
Hi Catherine can you tell me what size fabric you used for the bandana. Thank you
at 0:55 in the video
Fantastic ideas... thanks so much for sharing 😊
Love the ideas!!! Subscribed today to your channel, thanks.😍😍😍
Awesome and welcome! :)
Your project ideas and positivity have made my day 🥰
😊
Yes! More scrap projects!
Those bags are cute! I am not a sewer but I would make those flowers and add my twist of maybe shrinky-dink design for the center. If I have a shirt that has a nice design on it, but it has some wear to it, I don't like to throw them away because I want give them a new life...the box idea is nifty!!!
Miss Heidi, next time I see you - I will give you the blanks for the flower clips! I have more than enough and I will be happy to share :)
Such cute ideas. Love the hair clips best!
Amazing ideas...I love it!!!❤️❤️❤️
How much is the seam allowance on the fabric basket project? Thanks!
I do 3/8" or 1/4" :)
can i use cotton material for bandana's ?
That little basket is SO CUTE! I’m new to sewing and have been trying to find UA-camrs who make sewing content, but who also make things that are my style, have my sense of humor, teach things in a way I can understand, etc, etc.
I do believe I’ve found myself a creator to binge! ❤
Thank you for all your videos! I love them all, but my favorites are these quick projects. Im the type of crafter/sewest that likes quick results. Thank you so much!!
I love these ideas!! Thank you!
Is mod podge paint with glue and paint? I'm a definite beginner. And I love your tutorials. Thank you!
Hell hello, modge podge is pretty much a type of glue, but waterproof. Like a crafty version of school glue (Elmer's glue). You can also get it with glitter! So fun!
Thank you!
Alisa, I hope your family are doing ok. I remember you saying, where you are from. How sad the world is at the moment. Unfortunately, us every day people are victims, to our leaders.
I just really like you
I haven't sewn in years, but your tutorials kinda make me wish I had the space to. I mostly crochet as my creative outlet these days, but I like your videos even if I never end up following one
Love you and your projects! XOXO I'm especially interested in the headband for an upcoming Animal Shelter fundraiser.
I’m a new viewer from NY. I am so glad I found you. I enjoy sewing but have not done it in 20 years. I love your teaching techniques. I bought a new sewing machine months age and have not used it yet. I can not figure out how to get started.
I really love your videos. I grew up with both of my parents working and now that I'm having a child of my own, I want to be able to be there for her. I'm planning my sew in sell shop and hope to start in the fall of next year. Thank you for inspiring me!
I have sewn for almost 50 years, but I love quick and easy projects. Thank you so much for the cute ideas. I enjoy watching your videos so very much,
Yes please. Great gift and grandchildren projects. Thank you
I have a bunch of peace’s of embroidery that my Great Grandmother and Grandma did. That a moth got at but I want to try to turn into a wall hanging by quitting them together with little scrap peace of material. Any tips or tricks you can think of to help me would be nice.
Hi Alisa!! Amazing ideas.. I always love & look forward to your many ideas.. I already make a few myself.. Mini tote & fabric dish, I’ve made in lager size for storage in sewing room & I love them….
💜💜💜🧵🧵🧵
I love the bandanna..thank you for ur videos..I love ur energy and the way u get right to it..I wanna make it 😊 I have prolly stitched a handful of items in my whole life and that too on an ancient singer machine (my nana’s) and for any fabric that would have elastic in between them, my needles would break..so I’m wondering if you could let me know the needles I should buy that won’t break when the layers of clothes is a bit thick..if that makes sense!
How do I join the group
I had a stroke am starting to sew again, but I struggle with weak hand, but I'm trying to make your craft certain thinks confuse me now.
I love to see your ideas 💡
What great ideas Alisa. Very useful projects. Thank you for sharing.
Hi, I love all your tutorials. Can you please tell me how/ where you learned to draw? Thank you
Love all of these❣️
I love your videos. There are a few sewing folks I watch a lot, but I think you are my favorite.
💯💚

Stella, hello there! Thank you for being interested- just open the infobox, all information is there, make sure you read till the end :)
The bandana is so cute and will be perfect to put on when I take off my motorcycle helmet and my hair is all flattened down! Thanks for the great ideas!
Thanks soooo much for this, I made and adorable headband from this❤❤❤
You do such a wonderful, simply explained video each time I watch you.
Good tip for making baskets and purses: To iron interfacing and then cut
You are so cute!
use a safety pin to feed elastic. Hook to end and push through fabric.
I love these series of videos quick and easy, please keep going I am learning so much.
Nice video. I like all items. I love crafting and painting. It is so relaxing .
I will try the basket and the head scarf. Just lovely !!!!
I pray your family abroad are safe🙏🏽🇺🇦
I do like your craft. I do recycling, up cycle and create stuffs
Love the hair clips. Can't wait to make them for a friend's new baby.
fabulous
I love your the way you made your bands. I made mine a little different but I want to make it again.
Liked all of your neat ideas. Like to watch you draft a new garment too. Thank you!
SWEET
I love everything you do. Such good ideas Thanks

Yes I’ll love to see more ideas like these. Have a blessed weekend
Is there a printable template available for the basket pattern? I really love this!!!
Yes more quick and easy projects. Thank you 😊
This bandana is perfect. Since I live beside the ocean it's always a bit windy. So this will help to keep my hair from getting all tangled when I go outside. Thanks for this video! My thought are with you.
Yes ma'am! Same here, it gets windy and this keeps the hair out of my face! Thank you so much for your thoughts, I appreciate that!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity can you provide measurements for the bandana rectangles? Please and thank you 😊
@@JB-le6zm it is all in the video, at 0:55
@@ThoughtfulCreativity thanks... it literally flashes across the screen and then it's gone... I had to play it back several times to get a screenshot👍🏻
These are sew cute! Lovely work!
Very beautiful thank you for sharing 😊 ❤ 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing this these quick ideas.
Beautiful one
Good idea. Thanks.
Hi. I have been watching you for a short time, however, I love all your projects. I have subscribed to your channel.
I would like to know how can you tell if a fabric is woven or non-woven if it does not state so?
Marisol, hi! I have a video called "how to choose fabric for your project" - look it up and you will get a better understanding.
