- This is a long, rambling video where I answer viewer questions, show you my latest project as well as my next project.I share my three step process for creating clusters and show the basics of how I approach collage. There is an Etsy shop update and a happy mail thank included. Please ask any questions you might have and I’ll do my best to answer them. Thank you for your kindness and happy creating.
Cori I save like you do and I’m often teased about the teeny pieces of paper lace fabric notions I know I’ll need one day. The day came when I lost my 23 year old sewing room to a CA Wildfire. Events as such will have you changing priorities and I vowed to live more simply. What comes natural, what characteristics makes up who you are remain as does my remolded sewing room with all the teeny pieces neatly tucked away for me to enjoy. It take a special artist to know the feeling you get when you use that piece of whatever you’ve had in your bin for years just waiting for the perfect place! Teasers gonna tease.
Yes, please, Cori, I would love to see you create your Forest journal and the slow stitching kit. Thanks for demonstrating your process for producing clusters and collaging. Very handy to see how you set up your supplies for creating these, too. Keep on having fun creating with scraps! 🥰
Lol! I do love playing with scraps. Thank you for letting me know that you would like to see slow stitch needle book and mountains, forests and lakes journal.
Yes please what Keryn said.Oh dear, I see it's been almost year since this was posted, perhaps you've already made these videos? I'll check and hope you see this anyway. Thanks!
I love watching you “clustering”. I had kind of abandoned this process because mine always look too messy. You’ve given me hope again. And, brilliant idea to coffee dye paper flowers. I’m gonna try that too. Thanks Cori.
But messy has a lovely appeal as well! Using the 3-step process works extremely well for me, so hopefully it will benefit you, too!
I am in awe of how easy you make the cluster making with your step by step process.
Making them in steps, or stages, really helps.
Hi Cori. I’m new to your channel, but wanted to say that I seem to pick things up (learn) very easily from you. I was having a difficult time trying to store my scraps...I tried so many different methods, until I watched one of your videos. So, now I’m all organized and can begin to make some clusters, and collages because I watched this video. I’m also trying to work my way through your tabs, tags and tucks series. You’re keeping me very busy, but enjoyably busy. Thank you for all that you do here and in your work life as well.
I agree. I love her channel.
I’m sorry for the delayed response. Welcome and I’m happy to hear you’re finding the videos useful 😊
Thank you so much Cori, I really really enjoyed watching you create those clusters and I really really love ❤️ to see you create the journal and the slow sew booklets. I really really love ❤️ the one you’ve made for your friend so yes please I really really would love ❤️ to see the process too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Clusters are, hands down, my favorite things to make. Quick, easy and they never look the same. As a major bonus, they use up a lot of scraps.
Very cute sewing book and journal also clusters as always a great job and ideas thank you for sharing
Theola
I so love making clusters! There are a ton of different ways to go about them. Be sure to check out Andrea Allen of Artymaze.... hers are wonderful.
Your needle book is fabulous! The recipients are very lucky ladies!
Thank you Betty. I’m hoping to have a tutorial up today.
Cori so glad I found you! Your ideas and techniques are a 10! You have inspired me to try new things and opened up a ton of new ways to make my journals filled with things I would have thrown away pcs. Thank YOU!!
Thank you Joyce and welcome! I'm happy to hear that some of the ideas shared work for you 😊
I am newbie and "love" your beautiful ideas, teachings, and your sincere personality. I would greatly enjoy you doing a tutorial on the lace sewing books. They are so precious and I adore lace. I watched how you put lace on your scrap bundles. Lace and pearls seem to me to be vintage and lovely. I am so glad I found you and plan on being your biggest fan.
Sincerely, Debora Arcarola-Boyd
Thank you Debra. What sweet comments. There is a video on how to create them, if you look for "needle books" on my channel, it should pop up.
Yes please!!! You are Amazing!
That needle book is so cool. I never even knew that anything like that existed. Great beautiful job!!! Yes I want to see a video, I'm going to have to go see if I missed it. .
Your items for clusters are wonderful. Lots to choose from. So many items to choose from. Love your stash.
Thank you. I just stick up on the basics that I enjoy using.
As always you are a great inspiration love your clusters thank you for sharing
Theola
First journal! Whoo hoo! Can't wait!
Coming soon!!
I would love to see how you created your needle book and your Forest Journal. I am going to look for these videos in your video list. You may have already made them! I am so late to this party! LOL! I am actually binge watching your videos right now. Thank you for being so creative and sharing with us. I also love how you give credit to other crafters. You are so sweet and one of the best.
Thank you Jan and welcome!
Iam new to this wonderful adventure of junk journaling. Just came across your video and it is very informative. you talk as if we are together on a crafting play day. thank you for our time. I quilt and repurpose vintage fabric, old embroidery pieces and laces. This gives me new ways to use my treasures. Iam excited to watch more of your creative ideas. Angela from Oregon
Hello Angela and welcome! I do love using old fabric, once loved embroidery and snippets of old or torn lace in my projects. Recycling and repurposing things just makes my heart happy! I’m certain you have some amazing treasure that will be wonderful in needle books, fabric covers and other pieces. Happy creating and I’m glad you’re getting some new ideas here 😊
Please share your next journal, and the slow stitch video.
Ahh, relieved you will be selling more items in your Etsy. Woohoo.
Thank you so much!

I just love your style. I love that you use the vintage look in everything you do. Can't wait to start scrapping tomorrow.
Thank you Velvet, and happy creating to you 💕
I just love your projects! I’m a quilter too and I use those clips to hold the binding in place to sew. I also use those frixion pens but the writing will reappear in freezing temperatures so I’m always careful about where on my project I use them. Can’t wait to see what else you make.
I am thrilled that you made this video! It was so inspiring to see how you use your scraps. I have three giant bags that I now know what to do with.💗💗💗
Lol! I hear you. I do love the challenge of using up the s raps in a productive way.
LOVE the little project you showed us near the end, gorgeous!! Yes, please show us. 😘

Oh Cori, that slow stitch kit is beautiful! Would love to see how you made it. That forest journal is something so different, would love to see that too! Your clusters rock! Thanks again for all of your inspiration! I'm soaking it all in!

This is only the 3rd video of yours I’ve watched. While not a journal maker, I am a scrapbooker with a ton of scraps of paper and lace, buttons and old books to take apart. You inspire me to make my own embellishments. Love watching you work and how you share what you do. Thank you!
Thank you and welcome Margie! I’m a long time scrapbooker and that craft will always be close to my heart. It’s great to have you here and I’m certain some of the thing will work well with your scrapbook projects.

Thank you, but Kerry, I'm certain you could make one beyond anything I can imagine. I showed your stamps again in my new scrap buster paper clip video, so I hope some folks are off purchasing your wonderful products. I need to do a power shop in your store! My next pocket (tonight? Tomorrow? Soon!) is based on one your sweet momma created, so I will be sure and link her video.
Hello, Cori! New friend here. Your video popped up in my suggestion selection. Thanks for sharing so many techniques. Love the forest paper. That sewing book is adorable! Blessings & Bubbles...oooOOO
Hello Patty and welcome! Thank you and I hope to have a video up this weekend so others can have a go at the slow stitch needle book too :)
You’ve just come up in my recommendations and this is so gorgeous that I’ve subbed. I’ve tried to go bright and colourful, but this colour-way is my happy place😁
Thank you and welcome! I also love bright and colorful, but find myself reverting back to this color palette for my junk journals.
