    Hi Erica - Lovely video thank you. I feel my pin cushions with Dry Lavender, your pins take on the smell so you have that beautiful smell of lavender whilst pinning LOL. Stay safe, Linda xx

    When you talked about nesting seams together, it reminded me of a quilt shop owner years ago who used to say "quilters like tight butts", as in butting (or nesting) seams together.

    You can also add "kitty litter" to your pin cushion. It’s actually groundalmond shells. Apparently they help sharpen your pins?

    I love this, I adore this. It's going to be my first quilted project for my best friend who does so much for me, her family and her community. She has made hundreds of facemasks and scrub bags for charity and our NHS Heroes during these pandemics. How wonderful will it be for her to receive a handmade gift from me that she can use too in her sewing room. I am a litle scared about the 'nesting' seams so I think I will have to press mine open being a newbie. Wish me luck in my first quilting adventure......With love and thanks from here in the UK to you, your family and friends xxxx

    I have a question for anyone thats willing to answer. When we sew the half traiangl together why don't you need to back stitch? Then when you sew rows why don't you need to back stitch?

    • @TravelsWithLittle
      @TravelsWithLittle 3 роки тому +1

      Because you sew over the seams when you piece the rows together. The sewing across secures the seam. I hope that makes sense.

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  3 роки тому

      Hi, You don' need to worry about it because when you sew the rows together the stitches will get caught in the seams. But if you like, you can backstitch at the stop/start of each row when assembling

      Using crushed walnut shells not only gives your pincushion a little weight but also sharpens your pin/needle each time its inserted. They are also listed as lizard litter from a pet supply store. Its also used for the bottom of bird cages. Hope that helps.
