9/28/24: These are absolutely incredible, but for me, I'd prefer not to go the messy route look that you referred to, but neater (call me old-fashioned) with all threads cut and tapered edges. As for the tissue paper, good gosh, that's SO cool, never seen anything like it, so I'm gonna give it a try with putting lace and fabric in between and go from there, but I'm sure they'll have to be handled carefully so as not to rip, Ugh! You've definitely planted the seed in my head and that's good enough for me. Thank you for sharing your talent with these very unique and creative pieces of art. I LOVE it! 😉
OMGOOODNESS....so happy to find ur channel. I literally have hundreds of patterns from buying out pattern cabinets from Joann's going out of business Store in Philly. Cabinets were not cleaned out AND we returned at night. They had dumped the contents of whatever cabinets were left into the dumpster. Fortunately we took our truck and literally loaded the back of the pickup with ALL the patterns. I knew I would be able to use them in my art eventually. Don't make clothes anymore....cheaper to buy than make. Have shared many and now I have more ideas running through my head, Wonderful ideas, Also watch Lizzi Brewer Scrappinlizzi, she folded pages and make them into journal too. Thank you for ur creativity. Gorgeous
Hello and welcome to my channel. How awesome that you have so many patterns to play with! Sounds like you’re going to be busy. Have fun and thank you for your lovely comment. 💕💕
These are just adorable and unique. You did a great job on these. I'm in my 50's and I've never crafted before, but all you young women have inspired me and I now have become a crafter, just for fun. So, thank you so much for sharing your talent and my God bless you greatly :)
These are gorgeous Suzy!! I have used sewing tissue for covers before but never tried putting printed tissue or fabric in-between the layers. What a great idea!! Thanks for sharing your technique & beautiful art my friend!!💜💜💜
Great job, Love them all and I have so many old patterns. Great ideas! I am a new subscriber and really love all your things! Hope you have a very Merry Christmas
I have bern wanting to make one of your tissue journals ever since I first saw these butI didnt have any dress pattern tissue. Yesterday I was lucky enough to find some so I'm so excited to give these a try. 🤗
What a clever and beautiful way to use old McCalls, Simplicity, and Butterick patterns. I’ll have to see if I still have any of my old ones! I really love the butterfly journal. ❤️
Hi Carol! Thank you so much! They are really fun to play with. I hope you have some that you can use. If not, you might check your local thrift stores. The butterfly journal is one of my favorite too. TFW❤️❤️😘
Suzy, I love these journals! I have a ton of dress patterns that were my Mama’s and I had no clue what to do with them until I found your video! You’re such a wonderful inspiration to me! TamiB was my inspiration to buy a new sewing machine and I am so glad to have you also.
Oh that’s fantastic! It’s such a fun and easy way to use up our collection of sewing patterns. Im so happy this video was inspiring and helpful. Tami B is such a wonderful inspiration and such a sweet person too. Thanks so much for your kind words and I hope you have fun making! ♥️
