Although I thought I knew a few of these hacks already, once again, Tracy, you hit it out of the park by explaining it SEW MUCH BETTER.
Thank you for the kind feedback Gloria!!! I love hittin' em out of the park!🎉
Viral. Thank you for doing the research on these hacks.
OMG! Tracy your tutorial is right on the mark. You gave more details than the other videos. I especially love the continuous binding instructions. The overlap of 1/4" seam lines for one. Following your details saves me from so much frustration. You are one of my Shero's. Thanks friend. Keep up the good work 👏.
Happy to hear the hacks helped💛
This should go viral!
That would be awesome Pat💛
I ❤ your sewing hack videos. I always learn something. Hope your videos go VIRAL
Thank you Lupie🎉
It's nice to know that when I try some of these hacks, and they are epic failures, it's not always on my end! I had a mess with those washable markers. Thanks for sharing!
Love the couching, looks great. Chel🌸
Thank you! 💛
That bias tape video was the best what a great hack
Awesome Janet...so glad it was helpful!!💛

Love these VIRAL hacks you share❤️🧵
Thank you for watching Helen💛
I appreciated that hack with the minky! Tfs 👍💖🇨🇦
You are so welcome!💛
That loop turner also works great for your serger thread tails. Just insert the turner under the looper threads about an inch from the end of the seam and pull that tail backwards.
I hope this video goes viral as it is good.
I hope so too Terry!! 🎉
Thanks for sharing these Tracy 😊
Absolutely Chrissy!💛
Awe, THANK YOU! That little hack with the straws and yarn, well I JUST LOVE THAT! 😊

Thank you Joan...I'll see if I can round up some more for future videos✅
I was trying to figure out the bias tape hack this past weekend and none of the videos I was watching were as detailed as this one was, so thank you!!
Glad it was helpful Chloe...✅

thanks for showing the larger piecee of fabric with lines adjusted for the seam allowance.
Excellent! ❤
Thank you Tracy, very helpful info!
Happy to help💛
Great video, Tracy! Every hack is explained so much better than the original. The originals have assumptions that we have prior info. Yours are clear from beginning to end. You are a good teacher! Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words of encouragement Pat!💛
I love your videos. They are very helpful to a timid quilter like me. Thanks!
I would so try the straw one!
That one was so much fun!!!!🎉

I want to thank you for taking the time to make all of these awesome videos! I have learned so much! I am a beginner, and I was able to make my first quilt from watching!
You are very welcome Ashleigh! Way to go on making your first quilt🎉woo hoo!
I love your tips.
Thank you Diane!!!😀
I have a minky project waiting and I like that one. Thanks I have never used that stretch interface
It's super easy....just remember to spread minky out real good on flat surface✅
Thank you for testing these hacks. I was wondering about the hook. I hadn’t seen the others but good to know what works and doesn’t work.
I was bummed about the hook...when I was gathering my info for the video....I thought that one for sure was going to work....but it didn't...✅
Great hacks…wish I knew about the fusiable net and minky hack…🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️…looks soooo much easier then the way I tried sewing on the minky…🤔😍…thank you
Yes Jackie...it is much easier...keeps the slippery minky stable until you can sew and while you are sewing✅
Good hacks again. Thanks
You're welcome Ange💛
Thank You.
You're welcome Cindy...Happy to help💛
lots of great Tips
Glad it was helpful Roxanne💛
Thanks for the hacks! Love the first one so much!! I have so much yarn from crocheting, and I would have never thought of that - amazing!!!🧶
Glad it was helpful Susan...it really was as easy as it looked in the video too✅
@@TheSewingChannel I would have never thought to do it - which I guess is why I was so amazed that it was so pretty on the fabric. :) Looking forward to more hacks!
Hey there!I love your videos and I had to tell you, my first real quilt ,(I’d made many simple, ‘quilts’, with two bed sheets or fabric with batting I tied, which don’t count) so my first real quilt had a Minky backing too! What??? It made me feel downright remedial after sewing for like idk 50 years! (I started when I was 5, no kidding.) So now when anyone I’m making a baby quilt for even mentions Minky , I change the subject haha. Thanks for this tip. It’s sort of a no brainer actually, now that I’ve full on delved into all the interfacings / stabilizers etc available these days. Oh and my first quilt, the one from hell? It had batting too. Try to imagine that ugh. It turned out nice in the end, I guess it was from years of facing down fabric for a battle and winning - you know what I mean. Thanks for sharing, seriously you’re one of my very fav channels - I’m starting one soon, it’s been a long process, but I’m almost there. Wish me luck! I’ll let you know when I finally post my first video. Ps. My name is actually Mary Take care❤
Thank you so much!! So very helpful !😊❤
You are so welcome Marsha!!💛
Love your channel!
Thank you!
You're welcome Cathy!✅
Love it thank you!!
You are so welcome!
I put my bias tape tube on the end of my ironing board and just cut and pull it around and around. I love making my bias tape or bias binding that way. It uses very little fabric.
I just watched a video yesterday where they lady used Glad Press and Seal the same way you used the knit tricot. I thought that was the bomb. It wasn't, your idea is much better. Of course I try not to use minky because it's a pain to sew with but this I will try. Thanks.
Thank you Jeanne....I actually have her video linked in my info box...now you have 2 ways to try it✅
Great video ❤
Super ‘hacks’ Tracy 👍 Glad I’ve not bought those markers 😱😱 👏👏🇬🇧
Thank you Glynis...I honestly would not use them on my quilt just because there may be a chance the marks would not come out.
Your vids are great! Viral is as viral does! You’re the best and I’m xxl. ❤️❤️
Hi Mary thank you. 💛Please check the info box on where you need to email the secret word✅
How cool! I have to try!!
Go for it Sharon!!!🎊
LOVE THE MINKY HACK!! viral
It's a good one for sure!!!✅
Great tios
*Tips not tio
LOL Nancy..you are so funny!!! do you know can hit the 3 dots and edit your comment?
Great video... I watched a minky hack this week using 'press n seal' , which I thought was good. Unsure of cost difference and if one product is easier to remove from the finished quilt... thanks for your time spent explaining the 'binding' hack👍👍👍
You're welcome Rosemary✅ I have not tried the press n seal but did watch that video today and she did a great job explaining her process....I actually put her video link in my description box for anyone that would like to view it 💛 (*note with the knit fusible I used in this hack it does not need removed...stays in quilt✅
Rosemary
I saw same press n seal hack. Think the tape will be more needle friendly. Don't you?
You do the best job explaining the details with clear up close pictures!! Thank you! And enjoy hearing your kind voice, so soothing!
Thank you so much Cheryl...I appreciate the kind feedback💛
I am sure your quilting hacks and sewing hacks will go viral Tracy! Thank you so much for sharing this with us
You're welcome Linda!!!!💛
Hard to believe that the washable markers have gone VIRAL as a recommendation for marking tops for quilting if they don't actually come out - so sad but glad at the same time that I haven't fallen for that one yet. I use chalk pencils, air disolving markers and a wooden point turner and rulers for my quilts 😊
I think the confusion on the "washable markers" is that the ones having good luck with them are not using the red....🤷🏻♀️ I don't think I'd want to chance it on a quilt though.
Hey Tracey, great tips. Thank you for doing all the research & sharing what you learned. Appreciate it!
You're welcome Joy....this was a fun video to do🎉
The yarn couching hack is great! I use that particular foot all the time for piecing, and never thought of using it that way.
It works so well too!!! Flawlessly!!!✅
I just want to say how great and helpful your videos are. I’m a total beginner and have learned so much from watching you! Thank you 😊
Jules-You're comment encourages me to keep making content💛Thank you
Thank you! Tired of seeing really bad advice and viral "hacks" that just lead to disaster
Oh I know....me too! Thank you for watching!!!💛
I love the yarn hack. Your bias tape video will go viral. You explained it so well ty
Thank you Debbie for having confidence in my video going viral🎉That would be fun to see✅
That Minky hack is perfect as I love💜 Minky but it scares me to death to use as a quilt backing. I have to,pop,over to me local sewing store and get some of that stretchy knit stuff - didn’t know it even existed. Thanks again Tracy for these great quilting tips and hacks - especially those that don’t work!!!!!
You're welcome Sandy!!!!💛
These hacks are so helpful to me! I was wondering about the straw trick….sweet!🥰
The straw hack was so much fun!🎉
Oh I really enjoy these types of videos. Thank you so much for testing them all for us. That's very strange that the ultra washable markers didn't wash out for you. I have never had one not wash out. That being said I have had some not wash out all the way the first time but I just run it through a second time and there is never anything left.
mine always wash out too
Glad you like them Nancy.....If I were to wash a second time it may have come out....Who's got time to wash a quilt 2x after making ? LOL😂 I was honestly shocked too though🤷🏻♀️ Maybe I had a bad batch🤷🏻♀️
Thanks for the video. I enjoy watching a professional test these "hacks". When they fail when I try them I just assume it's due to error on my part. It's nice to know that sometimes it's simply because the original poster left out some important details. Also, nice to know which one's actually work, too.
Another enjoyable video! 🙂
I agree about them leaving important info out.....I almost gave up on the bias binding hack until I figured it out....LOL😂 Thanks for watching💛
i use crayola all the time even on white never had a problem
I loved this video..I watched a video of someone trying to teach the bias binding..she made it so much harder..Love your videos and yor a great teacher..Thank you!❤
Thank you for the kind words of encouragement Cindy💛
Can’t wait to try the first hack with the yarn!
It's a fun one too!
fantastic video! You are really helping the quilting community testing these viral hacks. I love the Minky trick! ❤
Thank you Kris...I love the minky hack too.....there is another good hack for minky with press n seal wrap...she explains it good...link is in my info box✅
Why have I lived this long and not figured out the best to to see and turn two pieces of fabric? Thank you.
I’ve seen a similar one done with press and seal instead of fusible interfacing. And it was on a larger item.
yes...I linked that video in my info box✅
@@TheSewingChannel good, now I can go bookmark it so I will know where it is!
@@TheSewingChannel have you tried this one? You know those rubbery mats that are used on cookie sheets when baking? They’ve come down in price so much that you can get them for as little as 2 for $5. Use it on your pressing surface whenever you are doing any fusing. It keeps you from getting those ugly sticky lines of glue on your nice clean pressing surface. And it seems to fuse better because the heat doesn’t go into the pressing surface and is reflected back by the silicone mat. I tell you it’s better in my sewing room than in the kitchen. And it was pretty miraculous in my kitchen.
Enjoyed watching you ❤ . And as soon as I need these, I sure know where to look and I sure will save this for my future . Thank you sooo very much !!!❤
Glad it was helpful Becky💛
That yarn trick is wonderful, thank you!
I also have RA and have told several of my RA friends about you. :)
Your transparent hook on quilt rulers is genius! It has helped me so much.
Thank you for the kind words Mea. The hook on the ruler hack was one of my first hacks that I came up with❤ I have a hook on all my rulers✅ Thank you for telling your friends about my videos too💛
🎉another great video! I’ve learned so much by watching you ❤
That's awesome Alicia! Thank you!💛
I love the hack using the yarn, I have that sewing foot. Also bias binding I have seen it done that way before but never tried it. Congratulations on 100K plus and thanks for sharing
You're welcome Beverly....that yarn hack was so much fun!!!🎉
Great tips. Please explain why you shifted the bias line over a 1/4” before cutting so that the lines did **not** meet and would therefore not make a continuous cutting line. Many thanks
What is the timestamp of your question?❤️
I wonder if you could keep the same straight stitch foot and drop the dogs and FMQ and do your couching hack!
Try it and see?
I like to make self binding quilts. It seems logical that I could use the fusible batting tape on the edge of the minky before folding it over and sewing it to the front fabric. What do you think?
Try a "mock up" and see how it works✅
So with the washable markers: I use these all the time for pantographs. The trick is to not use the red based markers (red, orange, purple) and to use a color catcher sheet in the wash. It has worked perfectly for me all 3 times I've tried it, including on white snowflake fabric with a black marker
Yes you definitely will have to wash 2x with some of the colors and use a color catcher....but my issue is that Crayola markets it to be washable...they don't tell you that you may have to wash twice and use a color catcher LOL...From a quilter's point of view....I don't want to go through all that LOL😂 But if it works for you that's awesome!✅
Just say no to the washable markers! I used them once on a scrap quilt. There were certain colors that did not want to come out of certain fabrics. Others were fine. But I had to wash three times to get everything out. Why take the chance? The reason I used them was that I had alot of blue fabrics and of course the water soluble quilt markers are blue. So I needed other colors to show up. What does that leave me with that will show on my fabrics? Things that probably have some reds in them. Not worth it in my opinion.
I agree to error on the side of caution with the markers unless you know for sure a certain color will not stain what you are working on. 🤷🏻♀️
I have used washable felt markers from Crayola. I use soap and have never had the ink stay on my quilts . I have done it multiple times.
@@valerievesper9216 there are other water soluble markers available through FQS and other online stores. Like hot pink and purple 😉

Thanks for adding that non-US residents may enter (down near bottom of video description): "(If you do not live in the United State- Please enter-Just note that if you win that it will be the "lightest in weight" item that I have at the time due to shipping costs.)"
Yes...thank you for stating that...end screen will be changed by next video.✅
@@TheSewingChannel No worries, I have now entered. Love your channel ;-)
Odd that you had no luck with the washable markers. For three years I have used the Ultra Washable markers, I even press over them, wash with color catchers and have never had any leave a mark on my quilts. I always test the fabric first by taking a sample, marking, pressing and then washing. It has never failed.
Yes...I was so dissapointed Judy. Most people would never know to use a color catcher though...and it's not stated on Crayola's box to use one...My results were clear.....and I really wanted that hack to work too🤷🏻♀️
Hi Tracy, I cannot believe that the bias tape video without all the pertinent info included went viral! I have seen the whole process as You showed many years ago, probably on PBS a Nancy Zeiman video most likely, In any case, I'm loving that you're testing these hacks for us. It can be so disappointing when You try a hack and it really doesn't work out? Thank You for Sharing!
You're welcome Marie.....I watched the bias binding viral hack on another video platform/not youtube. And they absolutely left out info....they play music in the videos so no one is actually instructing verbally...they think you should just get what is happening by watching🤷🏻♀
These were great. Thank you especially for testing the washability of those markers. I would normally test first bf writing on a quilt or clothing on purpose (haven’t done that tho); but little kids won’t, and that’s what these are marketed for! ‘Oh, let me accidentally write on my pants bc it’ll wash out; but not on my shirt bc it will be permanent!’ NOT! 😂
PS: Did you happen to test if white board markers wash out of fabric? I’m thinking that based on the smell, they’re probably permanent! Thx again! 🌷
I have not tested the dry erase markers. To be honest I was shocked that the crayola markers and crayons did so poorly. Some people say it's because you need to wash it 2x...who in the world has time to do laundry twice? LOL😂
@@TheSewingChannel I agree 100%!
Which type of 45 cm rotary cutter do you like best- martelli or quilters select? Thanknyou
