I wish I had found this technique before I sewed 30 scrunchies yesterday! LOL Thanjs for sharing. Will be adding in my elastic BEFORE sewing my tube from now on!! Now going to find your puppy poo pouch tutorial.
I have watched many of your videos and have suspected that you are a genius. Now I know for sure! Love your channel and always learn something new from you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.
You’re always so clever. I love how you incorporated the elastic into the burrito method. I don’t sell scrunchies but my hair is so long now and I’ve been making them from left over minky so that my hair doesn’t break when I wear it up after a shower. Thank you! I will need to try this method next.
good morning! I make scrunchies as they ARE a wonderful way to use up scraps, plus a quick way to add to your inventory for fairs & markets. *I make a lot of custom items that leave me with sports team and cartoon character scraps which help use up every single snippet of those more costly trademarked fabrics
Hi Christine! Thanks so much for this clever tutorial. I made a bunch for my granddaughter to go with things I sew for her. I ran out of elastic last time & I realized I could use elastic hair ties instead of the elastic. It's a real time saver and the hair elastics, I think, hold up better.
That was great, I’ve watched other demos but found it confusing, but you showed how to do it and made it look very easy and understandable to follow. Again thanks
I thank you for taking the time to explain thoroughly how you made the scrunches. I really appreciate you sharing your time and the pricing method. Blessings 🙏🏽
You are so fun to watch and listen to. I think that is so interesting how you do the elastic in the scrunchies. Way easier than the way I thought it was done. Thank you for sharing your way. You are AWESOME , Christine!
I’ve tried this technique once and it was a mess, don’t think I ever got it figured out. This video has given some clear hints, so I’ll be trying once again.
Hi Christine. Thank you for sharing this tutorial, I never would of thought of making the scrunches in this way. What a brilliant idea, I will definitely be making some for my daughter, daughter in law and myself . I have made some in the past but they never seem quite right, Thank you for your kindness. Xx
Started at 10:30 pm to make one. I ended up cutting 9 more out (had 6 cut out already). I made 15 and cut out 12 more. I went to bed at 1:00 am! This method is much faster thank you for sharing.
Clever method! I don’t currently sell handcrafted goods, but I have tons of scraps and a woman can always use some Hair Bling! Can’t wait to do this! Thank you. So happy to hv found your fabulous Channel!
I just love your videos. I watch another lady that sews. Her channel is called sew very easy. She has a completely different way to do scrunchies. I can’t wait to try your method. I do agree they are Tedious.
Thank you! I have scrunchies on my summer to-do list for granddaughters going back to school in August. I’ll make them from used uniform dresses so they match. This will make them so much easier to construct. Thank you for generously sharing your expertise.
I love your scrunchies! I am trying to make good use of scraps, and I do find it tedious, however, I don't throw anything out. I have some fabric that is 2 inches wide and that includes the salvage. Do you recommend sewing two pieces together to so that will make the fabric about 3-1/2 inches wide? This fabric was left over from making eternity scarves. Whatever has no use gets cut up and used for pillow stuffings; I just completed 41 pillows for the homeless! Any suggestions are appreciated! I love your videos as you have a great amount of information and you get to the point; very easy to follow; thank you again! Carol from Canada
I like your ideas I have made scruchys before but they turned out ok but yours I will give it a try also here's another idea how about making fortune cookie in fabric
Hello again from Greensboro NC. I've seen a few of u'r tutorials that have a 6 sided clip holder in them. Do u have a tutorial on how to make it? I'd luv 2 make at least one. Thanks again 4 all u have taught me and u'r generosity with u'r designs.
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs I just made a scrunchy! It came out ok. Tomorrow I'm going to make the fancy foldable bag from your other tutorials 😊 I love your videos, they are easy to follow!
I join my elastic with sewing it too. I like it as it is neater and is nicer not to feel a lump in the scrunchie. I make scrunchies very similar but my seam ends up in the middle so it can't ever be seen when it is in the hair. It is fiddly no matter how wide the fabric because it is the elastic that causes it to be fiddly.
If you put the elastic in by threading it through,would you just make the tube and thread thru,or would you still need to fold the fabric as you just did? I always have issues where things are suppose to be straight forward…….it’s an old age thing I guess! Xx
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs you're welcome! I am new to your channel, and love your videos. Been sewing for 48 yrs, but new to making scrunchies; sew now I will give this a go. :)
I love the way you present your classes. You are personable yet you get to the point. You do not natter away nor make us "watch paint dry,"😄🥰
Thank you Janice 😊

I believe this is my preferred method of sewing scrunchies. Thank you very much. Love them!!!
You're very welcome Dianne 😀
Your method is absolutely genius. I've got to try this soon. Thanks
Thanks again Cynthia. 😀

The minky would be perfect for your hair 😍

WOW Nana, you've certainly been busy. Hope you didn't dream about all those scrunchies 🤪
Brilliant.
Thanks Josi😊
Love the look of all the scrunchies in your hair. Thank you for another great tutorial.
Haha, thanks Mary😄

Ah yes I've seen some of her videos. A good teacher 😄
Great tutorial!! Thank you so much! I appreciate your expertise.
Thanks Mellody ☺️
I sew my scrunchies the same way, but I use a elastic ponytail holder. Thanks for sharing.
Great tip! Thanks Geraldine😀
I really enjoy following your sewing lessons. You are great.
Thank you so much Rachel😁

That's a great idea S Guhl. The gilrs will love them, and you may find youself making them for the other kids too 😊
I love your money making ideas, I have tons of fabrics and I’m going to do that.
Thanks Izzy. I wish you great success 😀
Amazing, so skilful and such excellent teaching, thank you
Thank you Margaret 😊
I have stroke. I just want to keep my self busy by making scrunchies thank u dear
Take care, and don't put too much strain on yourself. I hope you make a good recovery😊
Very clever
Thanks Jacqueline ☺️
I have made them before but not that way,that is a very clever way of sewing them .Thank you I am going to try it out.
Thanks Eve😄
I am going to try to make some, looks like a great way to make these. Love your videos and all that you share with us.
Thanks Deb. Happy sewing!! 😊
Genius!!!

You looked like you were off to Hawaii straight after the video shoot! 😉😆
Haha, if that's an offer, I'll gladly accept 😁
Genius 🤩
Thanks Norma 😄
Thanks for sharing I appreciate your tutorial

Thanks so much Carol. I think it' worth trying the two inch strips. Scrunchies can really be any size, and a great way to use your scraps😀
Thank you for the great tutorial!! I love it. Made 25 the first day. Lol.
Haha, that's awesome 😃
I like your ideas I have made scruchys before but they turned out ok but yours I will give it a try also here's another idea how about making fortune cookie in fabric
Oooh that's a cool idea. I've added it to my list 😊
You are amazing.
Thank you Dawn☺️
Very cool! Thanks
Thanks Christine ☺️
Can you do the mini ones in the same burrito method or is there another trick?
I haven't tried it Karen. It may be a little more fiddly, but always worth a try😀
Is there a link I can get for the free fabric swatches? I would love to know. Thank you
Here's a video I did a few weeks back Lori😁

Thank you💕
You're welcome Elizabeth 😊
You make that look so easy. Lol, I love your scrunchy necklace..edit..oh!! It's not a necklace!
Haha, no, it's more like a noose 😄😄
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs I just made a scrunchy! It came out ok. Tomorrow I'm going to make the fancy foldable bag from your other tutorials 😊
I love your videos, they are easy to follow!
I've got loads of scraps so that's a perfect way to use them n with a house full of girls they wud be very handy
Souns like the perfect thing to do with the girls Kitty😁
Love your sewing projects but you took me out when you said "scrap bastards" 🤣❤️🤘
Haha, Jennifer did you have closed caption on? I said "scrap busters" but I do love the scrap bastards. 🤪😄😄

It is fiddly no matter how wide the fabric because it is the elastic that causes it to be fiddly.
Yes, the elastic can be a pain🤪
How did you come up with $40/hrs for your labor?
Karen, I started with minimum wage rate, then added taxes, insurance and everything else 😄
If you put the elastic in by threading it through,would you just make the tube and thread thru,or would you still need to fold the fabric as you just did? I always have issues where things are suppose to be straight forward…….it’s an old age thing I guess! Xx
Hi Tina. If you want to do the elastic separately, then make a regular tube, and add it later 😀
What length of elastic do you use?
she said between 6 to 8 inches
Thanks Nana😄
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs you're welcome! I am new to your channel, and love your videos. Been sewing for 48 yrs, but new to making scrunchies; sew now I will give this a go. :)
amiga cuanto mide el elastico,muchas gracias.
Marilyn, I use 6mm (1/4") elastic. You an also use a little bigger too 😊
I personally don't like look of scrunchies. Seemed odd to me to wrap a big donut of fabric on head. But this is the coolest way to make them!
Haha. I'm with you Retro 😆
It doesn't matter how many scrunchies I make, there is never one there when I go to tie my hair up. 😁
I have the same problem 🤪
So much work for a scrunchie i can see why you don't like doing them
They're certainly quite tedious Julie😀
