    Seriously the best amigurumi sewing video I've ever seen. Everyone else fails to recognize that there is more than one type of piece that you need to sew. I think this will greatly improve my amigurumis!

    I had no idea there were so many different ways to stitch pieces into the head or anywhere else! I watched other videos but they never specified that there were others other than the open stitch. Thank you thank you thank you!!

    I’ve been crocheting less than 6 months and I have probably come back to this video 10 times. Every other video confused me so much and you broke it down perfectly with the different pieces. Thank you for helping me not want to tear my hair out sewing!!!

    This was so helpful! I love the way sewn plushies look, but i always shy away from sewing them when using plush yarn, because we all know the fluff splitting apart is such a pain! Thank you so much for this video! Im off to go sew some stuff! :)

    Love the pin marking trick. I feel like i always count and then just hold my breath and pray it looks even 😂 much more organized and nit as intimidating. Also so happy i got a bent tip needle now! I had an awful plastic one because its all i could find at walmart when i got started. Its permanently retired now

    This is the first comment that I have left on a UA-cam video. I just wanted to say thank you. I have struggled on how to attach parts to my amigurumi. And your tips and tricks have made it so easy. The pinning of the pins to mark where I want to sew is just incredibly easy. Thank you again I have been looking for you for a year. I will follow all of your videos. Thank you again.

    Thanks a bunch. I watch a lot of UA-cam to learn different things. Always in a search until I find the right teacher. In the case of sewing which was daunting for me (learning how to amigurumi/plushies) your tips and tricks help me a lot on navigating my first Grogu (Baby Yoda) . I made other no sew plushies with no difficulty but this one since it was cotton, small hook and needed sawing was a little challenge until I found this video. 👏🏽👌🏽👍🏽

I had never thought about going round the posts for those so will try that, like you say the pieces can deform going over the top. Thanks for the video, I look forward to future content.

Still getting that sneaky conehead in my work. again, Thank you so much!

    Thank you for an excellent video on sewing amigurumi pieces together. This is my first time making one and I was at a loss how to sew the pieces together and your video provided the answer!!! Can I use cotton yarn which is much thinner than the parfait chunky I’m using to sew pieces together? It was the only yarn I could find that colour matched. Thanks

    Thank you so much for this video. Very helpful! If you don't mind, do you have any suggestion how to sew flat pieces which you don't have to sew on fully, like only center? In one of my patterns I have a flower attached to a head, and this flower has two colors, so I ended up with like 4 yarn tails, one of them I use to attach, but I have no idea what to do with the rest of them. I can't just cut them, because the flower can just detangle. Feeling helpless

    @savannamm 9 місяців тому

    I like the pin idea, especially with things like legs. I always struggle with keeping it round. Also really like how you did the flat piece. I always struggle sewing flat round things like eyes on because it seems no matter how hard I try I end up basically in the middle of stitches and it either changes the shape or you can see the yarn where I sewed it on
