Thank you Kandye, I love the old coins too. If I didn’t have so many things similar to that which were hand crocheted by my grandmother, I would buy one of your rugs-although the coasters are a good idea🤩
Hey Kandye. Penny rugs are so lovely,will give them a go when I get my backlog of sewing done. Thanks for the information on the rugs and their history. I’ve neve4 seen anything that here in Australia. We’re in winter here and I,m looking forward to summer. God bless you and your family 💙💙
Hi Kandye, Thank you for sharing your knowledge about these penny rugs, so interesting! It is very hot here in New England these past few days, we are on a tornado watch tonight which is quite unusual for our neck of the woods. Always a joy to see you and hope you have lots in store for us again soon! Stay cool!
Hi Kandye. My very first Penny rug that I made was in your honor! You taught me the blanket stitch. I had never made any kind of craft before that. I have some of the wonderful wool you sold and will be making more this fall. Enjoyed the video! God bless, love you!❤❤
Thanks for sharing your gift with us.😊 I love the thought of "whose pocket it has been in?" I wonder about all the things it may have purchased 🤔? The rugs are beautiful. Enjoy all your content! Have a blessed day. We are sweltering in PA as well!
I made some penny rugs from your previous videos. I bought on line heart shapes, star shapes and different size rounds. I plan to make more rugs when the weather gets colder!
Thank you, Kandye! I just made some coaters/ornaments to stick in a Christmas card for some of my friends! They turned out super cute! I put a tree or a gingerbread man in the middle of them.
What a wonderful gift Dale gave you, Kandye..extra special. Just wanted to give you a suggestion about placing your initials and the date you completed the penny mat. I too have made the three circle penny mat, that was open on the back, no solid piece of wool was used to sew the pennies down. I embroidered on one circle on the back of the mat my initials and year in that one circle, as in 100 yrs, there will some type of record of completion, just like a sampler. Great video..stay cool and safe from Arizona 🌵
Not sure if you use this trick..instead of using tiny applique pins, I use double sided scotch tape..taking my paper circle template, placing a couple of strips of tape on it, then placing it on the wool and then cutting out the circle..you can cut out several circles before replacing the tape.. I made these for a shop in the Phoenix area, along with custom size mats, so speed in cutting out circles was essential...😉
Keep me in your prayers tonight please. I'm very down. My videos just aren't getting views like they used to and I've cried all day. Then I go to post on Facebook and the source of my despair is plastered all over it. I just don't understand. I keep praying and praying and they just seem to bounce off the ceiling.
You will be in my nightly prayers, Kandye..🙏.Just give this video time, you will get the views..Please call anytime if you need to talk. I've never heard of the tool you use to cut circles, but the scotch tape idea maybe a good idea for your viewers that had never cut small circles..plus the tape can be purchased anywhere as the applique pins are a bit hard to find, sometimes.. I did post a new comment about doing a video of your shop, as I'm sure you have pieces of merchandise that are not listed on your website..as we all love to support small business..looks like that comment fell off this comment section too. Hum, so strange..like someone is deleting my comments..Now don't despair, the Angels are with you..😇
Kandye, I just received my wool from your shop. The colors are beautiful! When I opened the box, a very lovely smell came from the box - is that the smell of your shop? If so, it's amazing! I can't wait to get started! I want to make some candle rugs for my home and for Christmas presents. I've got the books, your videos, and my floss all ready. I have been down with Covid so it's been kind of comforting to watch your videos and think about making these Christmas presents. Do you have videos with wool felt Christmas ornaments? I've been wanting to make some bird ornaments for the tree.
You are probably smelling the store. I always have wax melts burning in the shop. It's the same scents as the candles that I have online. I haven't done a video on ornaments yet, but that's a good idea. You can use simple cookie cutters as patterns and embellish as you like with beads, ric rac, etc.
You're welcome! I've seen ornaments that look like simple sugar or gingerbread cookies. For example a sugar cookie snowman use use a light beige for the base, then a white piece of felt smaller on top so some cookie edge shows and then sew on beads and such for his eyes and buttons. You could also do a round cookie with white icing and different colored beads on top to look like sugar sprinkles.
@@cabincrafts2239 Hello Kandye, I so enjoy your penny rugs this morning here in chilly Melbourne, I have old English copper penny and you sure gave me ideas for felt and blanket stitch this morning Bless you❤️
Your penny is a bit older than mine. I have a 1893 Indian head cent in such poor condition that I can barely read it. My mom had a coin purse full of mostly wheat pennies and this one. She started collecting pennies when her parents divorced around 1943, she was about 4 years old and times were tough. The whole bunch is probably worth $1.47 US! I care more about what they represent than their cash value, a sad little girl and her fortune.
Thank you Kandye, they are gorgeous!
You are so welcome! Thank you!
Thank you Kandye! I love these pennie rugs and all your tutorials❤️ so enjoy listening to you. God’s Blessings to all!
Thank you Susan!
I was just telling my husband all about your older penny rug tutorial. So I showed him this video. Great idea for Christmas presents.
Thanks! Glad it inspired you!
Thank you Kandye, I love the old coins too. If I didn’t have so many things similar to that which were hand crocheted by my grandmother, I would buy one of your rugs-although the coasters are a good idea🤩
I hope you try to make some! They’re super quick because they are so big!
@@cabincrafts2239 I may give it a try!! Thanks!

Thank you Joanne! I dis an earlier video on these a long time ago if you want to go through my older videos.

Thank you Suzanne! I'll keep you in my prayers! My son lived in Vermont for 5 years and no one up there has A/C, so I feel for y'all!

Thank you! 😊
Thank you, Kandye! Those are so beautiful. I love your videos. Keep them coming. God bless you! xoxo
Thank you! You too!
Thank you so much, Kandye, for showing us the pennies.
You are so welcome!
I love the idea of getting old wool, then wash it to felt it. And over dyeing it! Great idea. I like little penny rugs 😊
Me too!

It's hot in Southern Illinois also! Very interesting! I learned something from your video. Thanks for sharing! ♥️
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
Well Done. Thanks Kandye.
Thank you!

I remember! You shared your pictures!
Yay! I enjoy your devotionals but also miss Cabin Crafts!
I'm trying to make more, I'm having to rebuild the channel from scratch basically so I can get the algorithms back!
Best of luck Kandye ❤! We love your channel
Thank you! Please share with family and friends if you think they would be interested!
I love these! Thanks for sharing. Fascinating history. I’d love to make one someday. I’ve got a stack of stuff I need to finish first 😊
I’ve always got a stack of stuff!
I can totally relate to that, I have so many things cut out to sew,but finding the time is difficult ☺️☺️
Yes, more tutorials please 😊
As long as I'm able!
Thank you, Kandye! I just made some coaters/ornaments to stick in a Christmas card for some of my friends! They turned out super cute! I put a tree or a gingerbread man in the middle of them.
That's awesome! I know they'll love them! Merry Christmas!
@cabincrafts2239 Merry Christmas to you, too!!
The coin is pretty, and what a lovely gift. Been miserable in Ne Ohio as well, looking forward to fall.
Thank you! I told him I wanted one to do a video with and he got me one! Early Bday present!

I don't use pins, I actually have a cool circle cutter that I use, but that's a great idea!

Great. I like the penny rungs
Thank you!
Love that punched tin behind you. Is that a pie safe? Awesome video!
Thank you! Yes, I traded my game boards years ago with a shop for that pie safe! I bought it with sweat!

Interesting how the name came to be. ❤
Always is interesting how these things come about! Necessity is the mother of invention!

Keep hanging onto them! You never know! One of these days you might have a fortune! Some pennies made during the war are more valuable!
