Thanks for the ideas you can use the beige tape to wrap around your hoop to secure items or stabilize them. You can also write on the tape. In the automotive dept you can use a steering wheel cover to cover your hoop when you use spray adhesive.
Use a dollar tree toilet bowl brush to clean up your sewing area from those long threads that like to wrap around your vacuum cleaner roller. And you can sit while you do it,
Omg the tape around the stabilizer rolls was worth watching the whole video!! I can use that for my vinyl too. There's a lot of great advice here. All my hobbies cost way too much money. Thank you!
I just discovered your channel today and I am so impressed. You have such good ideas - better than I have ever seen! And I’m not being dramatic. Thank you so much!!!!
These are genius! In less than 10 minutes, I learned so much. I love the face roller for pressing seams in the hoop. This is such a good idea for those “non textiles”, like cork, leather, etc., when I can’t use an iron.
Okay, the Pidicure Flip-Flop thing through me for a loop. I will say though, that it's more convenience than less expensive. I get 1.6mm foam in 12 × 18 " sheets for just under $6. Still, that flip flop thing got me..
Loved all the great ideas and I don't even do embroidery, but I'm always looking for inexpensive hacks. You have a great way of presenting your projects.
You did blow my mind with this. I have a question though... does the foam piece have to be the same color of the thread that you're using for the 3D effect? Basically what I'm wondering is does some of the foam end up in the actual stitching? Thank you
That’s cool. Have you see my new series on Non-Sewing Sewing notions ua-cam.com/play/PLbwpCJXJ_Jr76KiGSlR2LbTIWVc3ITHF9.html&si=rUTQRuDfJLz3DDQC there are a bunch of great ideas
I have most of these...and good for sewing as well... Saves so much money that can be used for other things, like thread, bobbins, etc. Great job with this video.
You need to increase the density fir your 3D embroidery designs. So you can easily remove the foam afterwards... Just a little advice.. Embroidery you knows better. Thanks
Hi Sue! Definitely getting a few rolls of the gentle tape! I'm currently using rubber bands to secure the industrial size rolls of stabilizer. Ever have a wide rubber band snap on you? The gentle tape will prevent that for sure! Ok, mind blown with the pedicure flip-flops! Thanks, Sue, for these fabulous hacks, tips and tricks! Love them!!
You can also by a piece of the thinnest clear vinyl sold in Walmart fabric depts. (good luck finding someone to cut it for you) lol or JoAnn’s , Hobby Lobby etc. small strips of this vinyl will cling to itself like Saran wrap.
Hello I just wanted to let you know, there is a new elastic thread from Germany it's called Saraflex I'm not sure if it's total use but you can wind it on the bobbin but you have to go slow while winding it or you will warp it.
Oh good idea. I usually skip the original paper cover with instructions and name inside the tube so I don’t need to keep it but you can sorta write in it but it’s not really neat.
*Wow! Just wow! Did not expect to see hacks in the pharmacy section and on the kitchen section. Thank you!*
:) you never know what you can find!!
Love the hooping station hack

Super clever ideas!! I might have to do a third video of all the cool ideas from you all :)

Thank you for your positive feedback! Yes our hobbies are expensive so anywhere we can save it’s good.
Love the clear vinyl and the tape stuff to wrap around vinyl rolls.
Glad it helped
Great ideas
Brilliant!
These are some great ideas some I knew and do and now I’ve found some new ones…thanks for sharing
This was the best D S hack ever!
Great hacks! I also use the hair clips to keep fabric back from the hoop (like when you are putting a design on the front of a small t-shirt).
Very smart! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the video it was great. I also use the medical tape from the dollar store, to put on my thread to keep the end's in.
Clever idea!
The white medical paper tape?
It’s a keeper
WOW!!! thank you for very helpful tips and things to help in sewing and embroidery.
You’re so welcome!

Mind-blowing ideas! Love it.

Glad it was helpful! There are so many more things that I am going to have to create a third video. :)
Thanks! I am new to machine embroidery and trying to find inexpensive ideas. 👍
There are plenty of hacks so dig through some of my other videos on embroidering in blank items too.
These were great hacks. I’m limited on space n no drawers. So anything I can do - more organized is so helpful. Thanks Sookie
You are very welcome :)

Oh that is a good deal! I suppose this could work in a pinch ;)
Fabulous hacks, thanks for passing them along.
My pleasure
Thanks. I've a new machine so I'm going to go grab myself . . .
Some hacks.😁
Awesome!
Omg this is beyond terrific. Thanks sew much Sue. Wow
You are very welcome
WOW!!! I can't wait to get to the Dollar Store. I learned so much from you today. I'll have to check out your other videos. Thanks.
Please do :) I'm thinking of making another there are so many good things there
You had some great ideas here thanks!

Totally wonderful, great ideas!❤️

Not exactly the same color but similar. If it does peak out you can try to stuff the foam under the stitching.
These ideas are great! Thank you!
Glad you like them!
Wow, I’m new to this channel. You have definitely given me some great ideas. Thanks

Great tips! Thank you for sharing!

Great ideas. Thank you.
You’re welcome ☺️
For my embroidery thread, I use an old 18 count egg carton. But I am definitely going to get the gentel tape!!
that is super clever
I've just thrown away an egg box!! Oh well, next time!
Wow. Can’t wait to go to dollar tree!
Sadly, pound shops in UK don't hold a very good selection of these things but I will keep looking, you never know!
❤

Yes! I use to use that for my threads too. But you’re right about Walmart

I do have it, it's from Mettler. I used it for one project and realized that very quickly.
I would like to know what kind of fabric pens to buy for embroidery touchups.
I personally have used the fabric markers and good old fashion Sharpies
can you label the gentle tape and if so with what can you use to write with??
Oh good idea. I usually skip the original paper cover with instructions and name inside the tube so I don’t need to keep it but you can sorta write in it but it’s not really neat.
Bravo girlfriend
Thanks :)
