I was just thinking I have too many crafty hobbies and I have to stop learning more. And then UA-cam popped this in my sidebar, and I thought, "Actually, yes. I do need to learn how to make adorable rope bowls, let's goooo."
Wonderful video 😊 You are a pleasure to watch. I have just one suggestion...tell us the weight and composition of your thread and your needle size. You gave us all the other pertinent information, but I searched the comments to find all the other information. Thank you so much for sharing with us 💖💖💖
I believe the thread is a 40 wt 2-ply thread (Superior Threads). I clicked on the link in the description box as I was interested to know that also. I can only guess the needle may be a 90/14 or 100/16 to manage the thickness of the rope without breaking. Oh I just realized you posted this a year ago - you probably already have the information
You mention that a messy workspace is the sign of a creative woman just as I was saying to myself, wow she’s so neat! You should see my sewing room. ☺️
This was the first video I’ve watched of yours. I enjoyed it immensely. Thank you for giving such concise instructions and not spending 20min describing the bowl uses. I appreciate instruction videos that start out with a quick showing of end products followed by instruction, variations, and more showing at the end. This was ideal! Thanks!
Fabulous tutorial 👏I have made several bowls over the years, but your starting method with the straight stitch X and the zig zag X is so much easier than trying to zig zag from the center. Love learning new things, thanks so much.
Lulu, I’m getting pretty involved in this craft and googled extension table for Husqvarna Jade 20, and there is one made specifically for mine. At $99, I will wait a bit longer. Good luck and keep on stitching!
Great tutorial! I've seen these bowls and wanted to try making one, but haven't gotten to it yet. You have rekindled my interest in this with a very good, detailed video explanation. Thank you!
Great job. Thanks for sharing! But I need to add that your ring is astonishingly beautiful, so simple and the color is so so pretty. I really needed to make an effort to concentrate on your work...
I always learn when i see the teacher recover from a mistake. Glad to see how to join rope, snip threads on rope, and ho back if you miss stutches . Thanks.
That is a awesome instructions on how to make a rope bowl. You have answered so many of my questions. I feel I am ready to make my rope bowl thanks to you.😊🙃
I’ve been watching so many of this videos, but yours did a great job of explaining the different types of rope! Would hate to have my first project not be useable. THANK YOU!
Hi again! I just wanted to say I loved your addition of MUSIC, combined with Fast Fwd, during the (redundancy)! You just make really...nice...(maker-)videos! You seem so relaxed/calm (like friends getting together!), and you have the experience b4 doing the teaching, so that you know what's important to point out, from what you've learned! ...that makes a great tutorial👍😉. The bowls are pretty! Love the variations, inc. thread-play: ) Thanks for the tips on the diff. ropes (I see others commented on it, too) -- you pass-on so much wisdom.....God bless your work, and *keep-on playing*!
Such a clever way of getting color in to the project. The variegated thread looks pretty. Without adding an extra step to the project. Thank you for a easy video to follow.👍🏼
I used to make these many years ago and even have an incompleted bowl from 10 years ago that I will go and find to complete. Thanks for the inspiration.
Hello! Another great video! I have had a day where I have been running around doing a bunch of errands and didn't stitch all day so now I'm hand quilting and watching. I hope you have a joyful week ahead. Thank you for posting this video and your creativity.
This is the first video if yours I have watched and you were great! Thank goodness I am on the email list for Superior Threads or I never would have found you. I have a huge box of opened JRs that will be perfect for this. Thanks!
Very enjoyable and informative video! You were very thorough and spoke at a nice pace. I have watched several videos on rope bowl making but they always left me with more questions. I feel I am armed and ready to give this a go! Thank you Amy!
Loved the tutorial! I'm sure you are making it easier than it looks....at least for me. Sewing on an angle looks tricky. My bowl will probably be a little wonky. However, I have some great ideas for handles, so there's that. Thank you!
Hi there, I absolutely love the look of these bowls but had no idea how to make them. Thanks so much for the wonderful tutorial! Now finally I can have some of my own or gift some without it costing a bundle to purchase someone else's handmade items. You're the best, great job‼‼💯💕
Lovely... I made a good-sized fabric covered bowl g or granddaughter and filled it with rubber duckies@ it was really cute. Added bath things to it, too.
Thank you for this tutorial especially showing the different ropes and what to use for a stiffer or softer rope bowls. Your suggestion on using variegated thread is one I will definitely try. This was a wonderful tutorial. I love the bloopers at the end too cute.
I enjoyed your video, thanks Amy, Finley and Olaf 😁 The coasters and bowls look good with that multi colour Superior thread! 💖 I appreciated that you trimmed your threads as you went along. Just a suggestion for the close ups hold it 5 seconds or longer. Thanks again for sharing! 💗🍁
Awesome tutorial with variety of examples, love all your videos; Suggest some more up close views of your other bowls you made and stitching. Stitching views you may want to shoot from right back side.
Wonderful video .. I started making some of these using fabric and found if I cut the fabric in the bias, you don’t have all the loose threads .. makes it a neater bowl …
Great video, explained the various steps so they were easy to understand. I too would like to have your best guesstimate on how much rope is needed for various projects. Thanks!
How did you make the straight vertical sides on the green macrame bowl? It looks like making vertical sides would be difficult with the machine in the way for a small bowl? Great video! Thanks for sharing!!
Hi Amy, this is my first video of yours that I watched, I loved it. I was wonder if you used a different needle to do the stitching? Other than a regular everyday one. Thank you for your video, I’m going to try it. 🥰
Thankyou Amy for you'd lovely video. You're warm and friendly style is so helpful. It's like being there with you. Just a thought...something I use instead of pins are wonderclips. Your work is beautiful. Thankyou for sharing. Best wishes, Ruth in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England.

Dollar tree rope?
😂😂😂you and me. I didn't want to try this but it seems I will have to add it.
Mee three!😀
I love the way the coaster turned out with the fabric!

Maybe try to figure that out on your own. I'm sure she doesn't need to hold your hand the whole way.
Amy! I've watched a ton of sewing demos. You're so easy to watch, your kindness comes through.
I love that you made mistakes as you went along and showed how to fix them.

Curious where did you get your clear table extension that’s attached to your sewing machine?
Lulu, I’m getting pretty involved in this craft and googled extension table for Husqvarna Jade 20, and there is one made specifically for mine. At $99, I will wait a bit longer. Good luck and keep on stitching!
This is great idea, I think I can make these , using Christmas colored fabrics and give as presents with sweets in it.
Fabric wrapping looks like a good stash buster!
I enjoyed watching this, you are real!! Thanks.

Would love to see a tutorial on adding bag handles, linings, zippers...Thanks so much!
Yes me too! Would love to see how you fashion a handle out of the rope
I’ve been watching so many of this videos, but yours did a great job of explaining the different types of rope! Would hate to have my first project not be useable. THANK YOU!
Thank you for all the tips, especially on the types of rope. And the beginning cross stitches to hold the base securely.

Love the bowls and your 💅🏻 nails!
Hi Amy! 👋 Great tutorial! I haven't made any before, but definitely will try after seeing this!
Amy, My first video with you! I am going to try these for Christmas gifts. Thank you so much.
I LOVE the bloopers at the end - even those of us sewing for years make mistakes and have gaffs! Great tutorial :)
I used to make these many years ago and even have an incompleted bowl from 10 years ago that I will go and find to complete. Thanks for the inspiration.
Very clearly explained Amy. Your creativity is inspiring. I'm heading out to buy some macrame rope to have a go myself. Thank you!
Hello! Another great video! I have had a day where I have been running around doing a bunch of errands and didn't stitch all day so now I'm hand quilting and watching. I hope you have a joyful week ahead. Thank you for posting this video and your creativity.
I’ve never thought of making one not wrapping the cord, so have to give this a try!
I haven't made any before, I will try after seeing this, Thankyou deer.
Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial! Your explanation of this method was so easy to understand, and I can’t wait to try it!
Great video! Thank you AND Findley!❤

Terrific instructor. So many good tips.
Fantastic video and so helpful. Love Olaf!!!!
Very thorough instructions. Thanks for sharing. 😃
Love this tutorial!!! Have had this on my bucket list for a long while…hmmm. Maybe it’s time!?!?! 😊
Love watching you work with the rope. I love the use of the multicolored thread when making the bowls.
I really enjoyed your video. I've seen others, but you are delightful to watch. Thank you. One of these days soon, I'll make one and show you.
Thank you for adding the captions! Great tutorial!
This is fantastic! I can’t wait to make my daughter some rope baskets for her toys

Great video! I'm constantly looking for items to make to supplement our income. You make them look beautiful! Thank you!
Loved the tutorial! I'm sure you are making it easier than it looks....at least for me. Sewing on an angle looks tricky. My bowl will probably be a little wonky. However, I have some great ideas for handles, so there's that. Thank you!
Very helpful and nice teaching and showing methods 😍
I love making projects with rope...so fun and easy. I also use para cord to make mini bowls....
Amy, that was an excellent instructional video. Thanks so much for that!

Very good tutorial, I want to try this. I could not always see the sewing area behind your hands, but I think I got the idea.
Lol I thought was my tummy growling😁- your dog.
What a fun project!! Inspiration…you do a great job….
Very pretty baskets! Thx for posting this great video on how to make them!
Great video! First rope sewing one I’ve watched and I can’t wait to get started! Many thanks!
Very interesting! I love the Omni V thread
Excellent lesson.. love it. Always wanted to make place mats. Thanks.

Great tutorial.
I like to wrap it all first and use my presser foot to hold the wrapped cording as I go..an extra hand ✋
Great tip Carol!
I've made a few of these bowls and they are so fun to make. I need to make some coasters also. Thanks for the tutorial....
Great video! I appreciate the demo on adding fabric as it is something I have done but with mixed results. Thank you!
Awesome video & beautiful results!!!
You can chrochet a basket from the macrame cord ( the large spool from your daughter), the chrochet will give it enough sturdiness and structure 💖
Awesome tutorial with variety of examples, love all your videos; Suggest some more up close views of your other bowls you made and stitching. Stitching views you may want to shoot from right back side.
Wonderful video .. I started making some of these using fabric and found if I cut the fabric in the bias, you don’t have all the loose threads .. makes it a neater bowl …
Love your rope tutorial!! I love making rope bowls!!! ❤️😁
I have only made a few but really enjoyed the learning process and will make more someday.
Thank you! You explained very well and made it seem easy. I am sure whenever I try I'll fight with my sewing machine 😂
I loved the video. Very concise and thorough. Could you please tell me what size needle you use for these projects.
Fantastic video Thankyou I learned a lot 😊
I enjoyed this a lot! Thanks for sharing.
This is a great tutorial. You did a great job.
Awesome video …. I’m excited to try this❤
Thank you. Great tutorial.
Love this project. Can’t wait to try it.
Great video, explained the various steps so they were easy to understand. I too would like to have your best guesstimate on how much rope is needed for various projects. Thanks!
See my reply above about how much rope you need. So glad you liked the video!
Thank you for sharing! Very nice!
Really nice. I see you have an attachment for the upper thread, do you also have something that helps stop changing out the bobbin thread too often?
Hi. I love this video. I’m excited to start my first bowl. Do you use a walking foot?
Great video!
I enjoy watching
This was great, thanks!
How did you make the straight vertical sides on the green macrame bowl? It looks like making vertical sides would be difficult with the machine in the way for a small bowl? Great video! Thanks for sharing!!
Very nice tutorial, I want to try this!!
The triple zig-zag stitch holds better and stays flatter, better.
Loved your video, and have subscribed....thank you for great content...
Hi Amy, this is my first video of yours that I watched, I loved it. I was wonder if you used a different needle to do the stitching? Other than a regular everyday one. Thank you for your video, I’m going to try it. 🥰
Loved your video. I'm in the UK and wondered if you could share the brands of rope you use and diameter etc 💜
Great work ! Thank You 🌺🌸
Thanks so much for sharing your method! This looks so neat! I would love to make one sometime
I like that the sides are more vertical than angled.
Thankyou Amy for you'd lovely video. You're warm and friendly style is so helpful. It's like being there with you. Just a thought...something I use instead of pins are wonderclips. Your work is beautiful. Thankyou for sharing. Best wishes, Ruth in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England.
Wonderful tutorial.
Does Finley sew as well. You make a great team. Can not wait to try this.
Great tutorial thank you!
