    My grandma was swedish and had the same mushroom for the pins and now I have it and use it such a lot, still in good nick! And each time I use it she pops up in my mind! I have lived in New Zealand for 56 years and can still remember her little swedish lullabyes! Awww!!!

    I just started quilting and watching tutorials. I came across Joanna instructing and giving advice on some videos. I've watched A LOT of videos, and I must say, I love watching and learning from Joanna. I wanted to ask if she gives online classes? I really learn a lot from her and enjoy her teaching techniques.

    Joanna to mark dark fabrics use a gray or silver color it shows up really good. I am not sure if the friction pens come in this color but sharpies pens do . xoxo

    Joanna was talking about dropping pins. Due to my disabilities I can't bend down, squatting is hard. Hardware & tool stores sale magnets that telescope with plastic/rubber handles. Think like an antenna on a boom box. They do not cost much. Drop something just extend the magnet, to find, and pick up your dropped pins. I even use mine to pick up my dropped thread nippers. I have one at each sewing machine. They work to pick up the older metal bobbins too.

    • @eepsers1
      @eepsers1 6 років тому

      "Reachers" that elderly people use have magnets on the end, and I keep one by my machine for picking up all the metal things I drop.

    When you watch Mash and hear them call for a clamp in surgery, that’s the hemostat. Literally blood stopper. They use them to clamp blood vessels to control bleeding. I now have some in my craft supplies as well, as they have a strong grip for turning out projects. ❤️

    The first thing that caught my eye is the birdie, then the hedgehog and the strawberries. Is that available or up and coming? I use a magnetic pin holder but I collect pincushions and that mushroom is adorable. I do a lot of hand embroidery and want to try the new Aurifil floss. Love the color themes. Thanks for sharing

    But if u r using the newest thread just to piece the quilt would u not just use the the white or beige or cream thread and use the colors for the quilting. Need a little assistance. I do so love it for my long arm i would not use anything else no problems with my machine smooth and easy. Trying to save $

    Thank you Fat Quarter Shop for the video. This is only one person's list so not necessary "must have tools". Got tired her saying "um" and "Like"-- those are fillers in talking when one is a teenager or when one does not know what to say next, hope she can learn to stop saying it and talk in a little softer tone.
