My Grandma used to tat...that was the one needle craft she didn't have a chance to share with me. I have a few pillowcases with her tatting on the edges - they're so lovely and priceless! This video was so fun! Thanks for sharing your talents!
Love to tat both with needle and shuttle. It's the only lace making that hasn't had a machine to duplicate the art, so you know it's ALWAYS handmade.
I too am a hoarder of (every useful items) haha. I'm going to try my hand at this idea. I Could see this on vests, purses, this would make a beautiful decorative pillow. THANK YOU for sharing!!!
Yes! This would be a great trim for so many projects. I hope you give it a try- thanks for watching, Julia
I admire your stitch regulation ability. I’m just getting started using free motion and I’m seeing it’s not as easy as it looks! Love your artistry as always ❤
love how resourceful this is
After all these years, I finally know what to do with all my great fabric scraps, trims, threads and more! Great ideas!

🤪✌️you definitely inspired me
God bless
I love these. Going to have a go at some when I get home and use them in my memorabilia book covers. Fabulous! Thanks
Thank you so much for watching!
I am so glad I found you on UA-cam. Your creations are “right up my alley”. Love them all. You are so creative and talented. Lots of great ideas to use the scraps I’ve been saving & combine my stamps as well as colored pencils. The sky is the limit! LOL
Thank you so much for sharing with the world. I plan to make some fabric bookmarks with the way you made your sachets. Just use 2 pieces of fabric with stiff interfacing. Also could use these ribbon scraps as well. Have a happy week! Hugs! 💝
Bookmarks- what a great idea!
I've new to using a sewing machine. Love this idea very much
I do know how to tat yet it’s been so long since I’ve practiced!! The beauty of it is you can tat with yarn as well as the thinnest of thread!! Can’t believe I
You inspire me to get out my scrap box and make these wonderful ribbons. You are so creative and your work is lovely.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching. Happy stitching! Julia
Love this and you have convinced me to try free motion making these! You are the best!
Beautiful, your videos leave me feeling so inspired 🤩
Lol I use to be a Hoarder of scraps that I can use for button covers (I reupholster) NOW ya went and made me a Super Hoarder!!!!! Lol
Ha! I feel the same way. It's really hard for me to throw any scrap away now. Thanks for watching! Julia
Another great idea, button covers!!
Jamie Tresor me too 😂
😂😂♥️ yep same! Lol
Wish I had seen this before I threw some scraps in the garbage. And you know when you hear that little voice say no save it save it and you don't. Hahahah. I just disassembled a bunch of levis and threw them in a vac bag and put in my garage until I can get to them. I use to have my car in there but at this rate I may have to move my car. Hahah so I may start making theses and add to my levi jackets. Thanks Julia for you're great ideas.
This is so beautiful! I've never seen this kind of work before!
Hi, these ribbons are so much fun. I love the scrappy look. Thanks for watching. Julia
This has got to be the cutest ribbon I’ve ever seen. I hope you don’t mind me using this in some of my projects.😊
Thanks Darene! I don't mind at all- so glad you liked this project! Julia
So creative. Never would have thought of it but love this.
Hi Cheryl! This is one of those "I can't throw anything away videos" LOL! Thanks for watching! Julia
Hi Julia as always you always produce fabulous tutorials. The ribbons are gorgeous, I would be over the moon if I was given a pack of ribbons like yours which has sparked off ideas for Christmas gifts for my sewing pals. You are amazing Julia thank you so much. Have a fabulous week, sending big hugs and loves as always.

Hi Dorothy, Thanks so much for watching. Have a great week!

What I do with my pieces of colorful yarn and snippets: Every spring, I take a bunch of them, make piles and tie them together with a ribbon. I then take them out and hang/tie them in my trees in my backyard. Birds come, and you can see where they have taken them out and taken them to their nests. You can see nests with my snippets in them. The little birds just love them, and it is so fun to look up and see your yarn flying in the tree. This suggestion was used one year on The Fons & Porter sewing tv show.💕
What a wonderful idea. This would be such a great project to do with kiddos!
I love watching your videos, you are so creative and inspiring, thank you
Hi Anne, Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching! It's been a busy summer but I hope to get a new video up soon! Happy creating, Julia
That is a very c leaver idea. I like the finished look. And I love embellishments.
Clever use of the tiniest scraps, which I now have no excuse to throw out. Tfs. ~ Lisa
Wow they are beautiful 👏🏼
This is really a cool video!
You touched on the fabric for trimming, how you decorated it, sewed it down FMQ & I really like how you added the stamping both on your creation as well as the tag wrap!
So much informative info along with the mesmerizing process!
I am really psyched to make trim, (instead of purchasing ready-made)!
Thanks!!!
Thank you so much for your comment and watching! Julia
Typical fun stuff to play with on a chilly wet day. :-).
Hi Phyllis! Hope you are doing well. My summer shop is done for the year and now it's time to clean my house Ha!
oh my gosh... I'm thinking of all the teeny tiny bits & pieces of fabric & trim that I have tossed out.... aaaaggghhhh... Thank you for your inspiration!! Now I'll be saving, & using those eensy bits to make something beautiful!!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I've thrown away so much also!
You can also use the fabric scraps as filler for pillows/etc.
Just beautiful 💗💗 thanks for sharing this 💗
Julia, you are so clever. Admire your creativity.
Thanks for watching! These ribbons have been very popular in my Etsy shop! Wish they weren't so time consuming LOL. Thanks for watching! Julia
Love your cool ideas! 💕
wow, i am so going to try this. i'm a quilter and crafter (cards, mixed media etc) maybe there's a reason why I have a lifetime supply of scraps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Kathy, I have a lifetime of scraps too LOL. Happy stitching! Julia
I feel like I probably have multipler lifetimes worth of scraps but its soo hard to not buy more stuff.
Thank you for sharing your fabric trim from scraps. I do know how to tat. It's been a while. Beautiful trim from scraps. Like the inking stamp idea.
Thank you so much 😊 that’s fantastic and beautiful and I really love 💕 it. So clever
Wow...fantastic way to use up scraps ...I'd been keeping the scraps for stuffing but I love these ribbons...they can be added to bags etc...Thank you for sharing this Julia.

Hi Gilly, I am so glad you found my channel! Thank you so much for your kind words and taking the time to comment. It really means a lot to me. Happy creating! Julia
I have tatted both with the shuttle and the needle. I don't do too much shuttle work anymore because my thumbs don't work properly now. But it is beautiful and I do enjoy it.
Great idea Julia, and cute too! :)
Thanks for sharing this darling idea! I have yet to try free motion stitching with my machine, but I think it can do it. I'm way more inspired after watching you:-)
Hi Sue, Free motion is really simple once you get the hang of it. A little practice and you're off! The possibilities are endless.
I’ve never seen this. Very interesting. I really like it. I have enjoyed this video. TFS.
This is an interesting idea. I keep my itty scraps(small stuff) in a large gallon sized pickle jar , I add to it every time I sew. Good way to use them. Thanks
Beautiful thanks for the great ideas!
Speaking of tatting - my aunt used to tat with a shuttle and tried to teach me how to do it. I couldn't get the sequence of movements right, but years later as an adult I tried learning needle tatting. Found it much easier to do. However it is done, creating those lacy loops takes alot of time - you are right to hoard yours! Enjoyed your tutorial and what beautiful results!
Hi Dianne, I recently tried the needle tatting and I found it easier. I still find it a bit tedious. I think I'll stick to finding it at thrift stores and flea markets :)
I love this tutorial. Thank you so much
Hi Irene, This ribbon is so much fun! Thanks for watching. Julia
What lovely ribbon! Very cool! I am going to start a snippy bin right away!
what a wonderful idea. I am always forcing myself NOT to horde all those little ends and pieces. Now I have a reason to HORDE ON!!! fun, can't wait to try this.
LOL! I have such a hard time throwing out the bits and pieces! I need to make more ribbon:) Thanks for watching. Julia
I do both shuttle and needle tatting I love using it in mixed-media projects. Thanks for the inspiration in making fabric trim. I also recently began stamping fabric when I want a very specific theme, I use Stazon ink.
I just ran across my aunt’s tatting shuttles while doing my sewing room declutter- it’s on my bucket list! Do you use crochet thread or is there a specific tatting thread? I love my Stazon ink too!
Great video sweetie. I have made some but only with long fibers. No snippets & I have been wanting to make some. I really love the stamping. It just gives the trim that little extra interest. TFS Toodles
Hi, Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. The stamping really does add a lot. I use a permanent waterproof ink pad so it can get wet. I have been doing some "themed" ribbon and have added it to my shop. It is such a great way to use up scraps etc. Happy creating- Julia
I have soooo many yards of my Grandmother’s handmade tatting. Several colors, some variegated. She passed in 2005, but my mother, before her own death in 2001 got a lot of her stuff for me! I also have 5 bags of handmade yo-yos. I dint know how to tat but I have three or four shuttles
Hi Rhonda, Wow, I love that you still have some of your Grandmother's tatting. It is so beautiful and one of those lost arts. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Julia
Just Beautiful!👍 Thank you for this!..Going to be trying this soon🌺🦋😊
Hi Diane, This is great fun and a place to use up scraps. Happy sewing- Julia
Great , fun , video, I’ll have to try this, thanks
Love your suggestions.. so far it is the keeping of a little 'box' of personal interests keeps beside the sewing machine, excellent and helpful idea. Thanks!! The other thing, is I wanted to share with you that there are many many tutorials on how to tat, with or without a shuttle, on You Tube.. I was really into watching them a year or less ago.. and thought you may be interested to look there, even for beginners I found many!! II am now at 4:47 into your tutorial here, and will now get back to it..... !!!
Hi, I am so glad you enjoyed the video. I’ve been watching tatting video too! I haven’t tried it yet but it’s on my list. Thanks so much for watching!
delightful!
I'm new to your channel you are awesome, I'm a true follower now, I learning a lot. Thank you 😊
So glad you are enjoying the videos! Welcome to this sewing community.
I have done needle tatting. It wasn't too hard, but it is time consuming. I taught myself a few years ago when I was laid up after an operation.
I haven't tatted with a shuttle but I did learn how to do needle tatting through you-tube videos.... It is super easy and nice to take with you... There are only really two stitches you use.... Anyone can do needle tatting!!! You should try it!
Hi, A couple others have commented on needle tatting. I had never heard of it before. A good thing to put on my 2018 bucket list!
Nice idea!
So cute. So easy. I love it. tfs
I learned how to needle Tat . The shuttle looked so hard but then never tried it.
I have bins of laces, ribbons scraps and have even thrown in some of my tatting in it.
Love your ideas thanks for sharing .
Thanks for watching! Happy New Years! Julia
Julia I have purchased your items before. LOVE ❤️ Love the great ideas and products. You have such a artistic brain lol. I don’t miss any of your post and just found this one. It’s great! Who would have thought of that.?? Looking forward to your future post. Merry Christmas it’s 2021 …
Hi Rita, Thanks so much for your lovely comment, it brightened my day! Julia
My mother did tatting. She made some beautiful pieces. I have all of her tools and thread but I know I don’t have the patience to learn. I love looking through the box she kept it all in. Great memories of her. I will save all of her pieces. Can’t bring myself to use any of it in a project. Or maybe I just haven’t found the right project to use it in yet!
Thank you. Now I'm a #fabrichoardertothetoplevel 😍
I had 2 great aunts that tatted. I wasn't old enough to appreciate how it was done.
Thank you so much wonderful teacher
espectacular!!!!!
Great tutorial! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Would love to see them into things, how it looks and ideas on how to use.
Thank you Julia, I have a big jar of scraps. I will be making these ribbons for sure. Great idea. I would love to do free motion but my machine is just basic and the feeder foot doesn't drop. 😞😞 hey ho, never mind I'll just do it with what stitches I have on my machine. Take care. Love Lita from the UK.
love it
New subbie here, thank you for sharing this lovely idea!!
I just subbed to your channel love Victorian anything lol
Brilliant idea! A new subscriber here. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next!
Hi Cynthia, Thank you so much for subscribing and for taking the time to comment. Enjoy the videos, this is a wonderful sewing community! Julia
I needed some snowflakes for a wall quilt I was making, I tried crocheting them, but was not happy with the look. I looked up tatting on Y.T. I found a fabulous tutorial on needle tatting. SO much easier than using a shuttle. The snow flakes I made came out really well and were great fun to make. Interesting ribbon tutorial, I would never of thought of it. Oh boy, do I have the supplies to use. Wendy
Hi, someone else mentioned needle tatting and I am so intrigued! I have been watching videos on it too and will be giving it a try. I love the look of tatting and sometimes find it on hankies etc at the flea market. I have tried with a shuttle but can't seem to get it-might be that I'm left-handed :) Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Julia
I tried shuttle tatting and was all fingers and thumbs, I had a hard time finding tatting needles so I bought doll needles and ground the points off with emery paper. It does a great job. Now the needles are readily available. Good luck! Wendy.
Very pretty
I have just stumbled on to your videos and WOW, how much fun it is to watch you create this Making Fabric Trim from Scraps. What a wonderful way to use our scraps. And I watched your video on Making Journals from Sewing Patterns...as I was looking for new ways to use my pattern tissue paper.....and searching for how to "ruch" fabric/lace/trims. I even went to your etsy shop and ordered a journal. So glad I found your channel and can't wait to watch more videos for inspiration !! May I ask which sewing machine you use....I love the feature of free styling stitching. Thanks for sharing !!
Thank you so much for your order! I am so glad you are enjoying the videos. I have a Janome Memory Craft sewing machine, but almost any sewing machine is capable of free motion stitching. You do have to disengage the feed dogs and use a free-motion foot. Most machines have a button to lower the feed dogs, some may have a plate to cover the feed dogs. If your machine does not have a free-motion (or darning foot), you can purchase them from a dealer or Amazon sells them. I hope this helps. Free-motion stitching is so fun and it opens a whole new world of sewing possibilities! Julia
Thankyou for sharing
Bravo!!!!!!!! this is brilliant..oooh I am not going to sleep tonight ....yeah it's all your fault...lol thank you for sharing with us..Hugs, from North Carolina
So glad you like the video! I make a lot of these ribbons in many different colors!
Lovely!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you! Lesson taught me not to throw away any scraps!
