Kooky Tutorial - SLOW STITCHING A CUFF BRACELET Part 1
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- Hello my lovely Kooksters :)
Today I am showing you this tutorial on how to make a slow stitched cuff bracelet.
I have also made a downloadable PDF to go along with this which includes dimensions of the fabrics and some optional appliqué pattern pieces. There is also a list of things you may want to add on there too.
PDF download link- drive.google.c...
I use a wool blend felt which has a high percentage of wool and I recommend that or a pure wool felt. Craft felt is not strong enough to hold all the stitches and may start to fall apart so I don’t recommend it in this project.
Cotton thread used:
DMC COTON PERLE 8
ANCHOR PERLE COTTON

Love these...just a tip for everyone, once you have worked out where you want everything to go , take a photo so you don't forget
Thanks Debra - great tip! 🥰
Or use a bit glue stick.❤
@@Miauwies yes - also a good tip 🥰❤️
Hi Tori:
Love all your bracelets. Have lots of scraps and small embellishments that’ll be perfect for this. Going to watch Part 2 first. Thank you for the printout. 💜😎🇺🇸
Excellent - happy stitching! 🤗❤️
Very Pretty. Great Tutorial. Thank You for taking the time to make this video
Thank you and you are very welcome 🤗
Love this.
Thank you ☺️
Love this so much! I also made these in the 70s out of denim. Thank you!
Yes - I remember those! Maybe I should have a go at one of those too with some sashiko stitching on :)
@@KoolKookyKreatures great idea we didn’t know about Sashiko back then and I love it❤️
These are totally adorable, what a fab way to use all those gorgeous bits and pieces we all hoard, love them!
Thanks so much Annie! I keep every little scrap “just in case” hehe xx
Beautiful!
Thank you ❤️
These are so pretty, thank you for this lovely idea I am off to find some scraps to make my own. xx
Brilliant - happy stitching☺️
Thx for not playing music so much better 💜🇺🇸
Hi Lisa - sometimes I do and sometimes I don’t - most times the music playing is when I have speeded up a video clip. What I advise most people to do is to mute the videos with music if they don’t like it as I will not be speaking. 🥰❤️
Ohhh i love these they remind me of the 70s i just dated myself..loo...im so glad you made this video..watching this at 6:00 am..were early moring family..lol....mikelle art mom ✍🎨👩🎨🇨🇦🇺🇸💛
Hehe - I’m so glad you like! :). Xx
@@KoolKookyKreatures im not sure if this could help you but my grandma used to use a small paint brush and brush the back of the small pieces of fabric then weighted them down with a book ( dictionary)over bracelet too dry glue she said that way the glue doesnt get bumpy under the small bits as they dryed then shed would sewed everything....she was so talented..thank you for bringing back found memories. ..mikelle art mom..
@@nattyw495 ooh that is a very handy tip - thanks Mikelle - I shall try it x
Love this, so happy to have found your channel 🎉 last year 2022?. I am that person who lives for planners normally Filofaxes or Kinbors but because of my love of crafting (cross stitch, Lego, stationery (a rabbit hole on UA-cam 😅) I follow you like mad. I’m ex Papergang ex Artful Ohh deer but love a good buy from both now in 2023 plus anything paints, craft paint, pencil with wool or art.
I use the best paints, coloured pencils, water color pencils in my planners and colouring books not to sell but just to play 😅. I do need to untest but use my gouache artful and water colours 😅. They may have gone off? Plus am an ex Scawlwer who own 2 boxes of ScrawlR Blackwing pencils 36?..? In total lol. Call me a mess but absolutely happy. I love listening to books on Libby and BorrowBox with my hobbies which you show carefully it’s less costly lol but my money goes down all routes to play!
Zeiler water colour paints, and water colour pencils had them for a while obtained in the lock-in down U.K. 2022, but would love to see a review, the pencils are awful so just the paints 😂. Ok maybe the pencils improves with an oven but that’s a fire risk which needs a massive caution, but I over did my cracks pencils at 37 seconds in the microwave belonging to Zierler maybe 10 seconds was best.
Also the person recently on UA-cam called by their dog -Art Becomings-, that person explains me 😅 the video Art myths part 1 made in 2023. Having a normal grey professional job who arts for fun.
I’m so pleased that you are enjoying the channel! 🥰. I have many different things that I like to do and this channel gives me the chance to share them. There are so many rabbit holes on UA-cam! I fall down lots ☺️.
You sound like you are having the best time with all of your lovely supplies and that they are making you very happy - wonderful!
Libby and BorrowBox are great apps - I use them too along with my Audible subscription. I love to have a physical book to read but when you are making something it’s lovely to have someone read to you at the same time 🤣🥰. Multi-tasking!
Arting for Fun is the best! 🥰❤️
These bracelets are amazing!! I'm so excited to make one. I made these type of bracelets years ago out of denim cuffs. Thank you for sharing!! ❤
I’m so pleased you enjoyed it! Second part will be out tomorrow for this so watch this space :) ❤️🥰
Thank you so much for your videos. I really enjoy them and learn so much.
You are very welcome Carol ❤️
These are gorgeous can't wait to try these thx a bunch for the great tutorial!!
You are very welcome 🥰
Love these and will definitely be having a go!
Lovely - happy stitching! 🥰
These are gorgeous! Thank you for showing us how to make them! ❤
You are very welcome Elly :) 🥰
Thanks so much for the PDF. I make jewelry with metal, beads, etc. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I thought about incorporating cloth, but didn't expand on the idea. Now I see what wonderful potential is there. I am now one of your subscribers.
Thank you and I’m so pleased that you are enjoying the channel :) 🥰
Ohhh fun!
Thank you :)
Love these! I am definitely going to give them a go. Thanks for the video.
You are very welcome! 🥰❤️
These look so fun. I can see me having a go at one.
I would love to see the needle felt tutorial too please ❤
Just a little tip, I use as I'm so indecisive, once I decide where all my bits are going to be, I take a photo on my phone, so I can refer back to it if I get I mixed up 😊
Thanks Kim - I will definitely do a needle felting one! That is a great tip and usually that’s what I do but I was using it to film! Hehe. Never mind - I just get the fun of finding new places for things to go! I’d love to see what you create! ❤️
@KoolKookyKreatures Thank you, I have dabbled with felting made a little monster pouch years ago. But I haven't done any more. I just started playing with slow stitching. I made my own take on a housewife , and want to make a pouch for my new heavy fabric scissors. I really like your style it calls to me 😁 x
@@kimtownsend838 thank you! I’m considering doing up a denim coat of mine with stitching - just trying to plan it out at the minute as it’s a big project :) x ❤️
@KoolKookyKreatures That sounds like another video 😊 when you get around to it. I think crafters all seem to have so many ideas and not enough time. My Daughter has added some fringe and a few pieces to her denim jacket, looks really cool. Hope to see that in a coming video. I've been playing with paper mache bunnies at the mo. Thought it might be fun to give them fabric floral ears 🐰 ❤x
Oh the bunnies sound cute!! :) I love paper mache - an artist called Julie Ariel makes some lovely things with it :). I remember having a fringed jacket in my teens. I bet it looks great. I share a studio with my daughter who is a cosplayer and artist. She has just put together a costume for a Star Wars convention this weekend (Kylo Ren) and there is black fabric everywhere hehe!
Awesome video! I love slow stitching and can't wait to try this.
You are so very welcome - enjoy making 🥰
Oh i will have to use some soft fabric next to my skin since im very sensitive to anything scratchy or rough in any way
Anything will work as a liner :) A silk or satin would be lovely :) 🥰
Would love to learn the felted version too please. X
Hi Dawn - I will definitely do the felted version 🥰❤️
Oh this is so cool and clever Kooky. I'm going to have a go , looks so fun 😀 Thanks for sharing your tips ❤
Hey Gaby! 🤗. I’m so pleased you like it :). A great way to use up tiny scraps of the Bazaar fabric too :) ❤️🥰
Usare l'elastico per capelli come chiusura è un'idea geniale! I braccialetti sono fantastici, spero di riuscire a farne uno anche io. Bravissima!
Thank you so much! The elastic hair band closure was an idea that came to me a while back when I was searching for elastic :)
I like to know how to do the felted Bracelets as well. Thank you so much for your video it’s fascinating.
Thanks for watching! I’ll be making some felted bracelets in the new year :) 🥰❤️
Love the needle valeted ones
Anya
Thank you :)
I'm so excited to find you .Thank you for going through step by step much appreciated. Friend from NZ😊
Thank you very much Alana :) lovely to have you here 🥰❤️
So generous to give us the PDF link too! Thank you!
You are very welcome :)
I loved the green color
Thank you :) 🥰❤️
I love these and am definitely going to have a go but would also like to see the needle felted version. Love your channel, thank you.
Thank you Margaret - I’m so pleased you are enjoying :). I will be doing a needle felted version very soon 🥰
CUTE!! May I suggest taking photo of placement of bits and bobs. Then you can do a piece at a time and not have clips all over the piece.
Aww thanks Cassandra. Yes I agree - I usually do that but I was using my camera for videos! Hehe I need two!! :) 🥰❤️
Thank you! I’m gathering materials now!!
Brilliant :) Enjoy making! 🥰❤️
I snap a pic with my phone after I get my pieces the way I want them so if they do get messed up, I can refer to the pic for placement.
Yes and I also do that. Unfortunately I was filming with my phone at the time :) 😆❤️
These are so pretty!
Thank you Susan 🥰
how sweet is that
Thank you Julia :) 🥰
Brilliant video 🙂
Thank you 😊
Thanks for the PDF, just downloaded it and going to add it to my list of gunna do's
You are very welcome! If you have Instagram then when you have made yours then do tag me - I love to see what people make! :) ❤️
Love these bracelets, such a great use of all those scrap fabrics! Usually if I pre-determine placement of scraps and I’m satisfied, I take a photo for future reference. 🙏🏻
Thank you and yes I usually do that too but when I’m filming with my phone it’s not possible 🤣🥰❤️
Very creative. Good tut
Thank you! Glad you liked it! 🥰
Türkiye den selamlar sizi şimdi takibe başladım harika tasarımlar yapıyorsunuz tebrikler tarifler için teşekkürler Türkçe altyazı da yaparsanız harika olur 😘🧿🌹
Çok teşekkür ederim, kanalı beğenmenize sevindim. Türkçe altyazıya bakacağım ve bunu yapıp yapamayacağımı göreceğim. 🥰
@@KoolKookyKreatures çok teşekkür ederim ilginiz ve hızlı cevabınız için 🙏
Hoşgeldiniz 🥰
Kooky, I just found you and am binging on your tutorials. Im new to slow stitch and embroidery. I tried the DMC Cotton Perles but could not get them through a needle. I tried all sizes. May I ask what your preference for needle type & size is ehen usong the Cotton Perles? Thank you. From across the pond.
Hi Shannon - a chenille needle or a Clover Sashiko needle will take them :) ❤️
Just subscribed, love your slow stitching style. Can you tell me the link to the Bizarre fabric shop you refer to? Thanks so much!
Thank you so much for subscribing. The link to Bazaar is here - www.bazaarshop.co.uk
Do you have a good online source for quality wool felt? All I can get locally is acrylic!
Hi Robin. I get my 100% wool felt from Cloud Craft www.cloudcraft.co.uk/collections/wool-felt-by-colour but also Paper and String have just brought out a 90% wool felt that looks good. I haven’t tried it yet but it looks fab. www.paper-and-string.net/copy-of-colour-collections :). They also do a wool felt mix 30/70 that I use for all of the inners of the cuff bracelets. :)
what are needle felting made of felt?
I'd like to see that how to video. lovely bracelets.
Needle felting is just wool stabbed into a base of felt :). Look through my videos - I have a few on needle felting ❤️
The cuffs are so lovely thank you for the tutorial, I shall be having a go at making one. In the past I've tried sewing with the acrylic felt you commonly find in craft shops, but find it doesn't hold my stitches well and goes into holes. What kind of felt do you use please?
Hi Carol - you are very welcome! My “go to” felt is usually a wool felt blend with a high percentage of wool or a pure wool felt which is a bit pricier but feels lovely to work with. I get my pure wool felt from a company called Cloud Craft and my wool blend felt from Paper and String. It is 40% wool and works great for backings and using as a batting :)
If for some reason you are allergic to wool then a thicker acrylic felt will also work - you just have to be more careful not to pull stitches too tight or it will split or “hole”. 😊
@@KoolKookyKreatures Thank you so much.... and such a quick reply 😘 I shall take a look at those companies. I love felt and used to make a lot of wet-felted scarves to sell until I hurt my shoulders. My wet felting days are behind me now, but I've returned recently to sewing and your videos have inspired me to do more slow stitching..... and to BUY some felt 🤣 Thank you 😘
Haha! I apologise to your bank account in advance! 🤣. I also love to do some wet felting - generally through the summer months - along with needle felt. Felt is so versatile! :) xx
Hello from a new subscriber. These are really lovely. You may like the videos I recently shared of little snippet rolls in a similar style that I used as place markers on the Easter table. Such a relaxing form of stitching as you say. Cheers, Christine.
Hi Christine! I’m so glad you like them and welcome! I shall go and look at your videos this evening 🥰
