I can't wait for a full quilt tutorial! I am mostly curious about backing and binding it by hand.
How do you always stay so positive? You are always nice and always have a beautiful smile on your face. I just can’t be happy at all lately……Life seems so depressing like really down in the dumps. I come here to visit your channel and see your smile.
I bet she ❤ Jesus!
@@kellyalderfer6430 I love Jesus too. I read a devotional everyday. I'm just not feelingbth love back.
You can visit here any time you need a pick me up! I’m glad you’re here and I appreciate your transparency about what you’re going to through - I pray things will turn around soon!!
@@JL-il6vk when I feel Jesus is far away I get in the word and just sit in it! Just remember he is always there! Never does he leave us! And he’s working for our good! That’s what faith is! We worship even when we don’t feel good.
@@shesewsseams Thank you Chelsea. ❤️
Joanns have a pack of 25 1" plastic templates. That's what I used for my quilt. I made 50 hexies, then put them together in 'flowers'. After I got the flower done, I popped the plastic out, and made another set.
I have always used soap and a candle, too, to help the thread to glide.
Great idea!
You know those little tear out cards in magazines, that annoy us? My mom used to tear those out, and cut all her hexies out of those. She was raised during the Great Depression, and learned to re-use, repurpose, recycle before it was cool. She made some of the most gorgeous quilts all from leftovers and scraps!
absolutely! I love cutting my junk mail into hexies!
My grandmother and my mother made their hexagons out of fine sandpaper back in the 50s because it would grasp the fabric ever so gently.
Sew smart!
As I was watching this I was cutting out some hexies. I am going to do a quilt and have been thrifting some shirts for the project. I started cutting them out today. I am doing a 2" so it isn't too small...I have seen you and 3 other you tubers talking about hexies recently so I thought I would try it. Thanks for the encouragement. Also, not a quilter but have been gathering thrifted shirts for 7 other quilts ( machine sewn). Wish me luck!
You’ve got this!!!
Making a queen for my bed out of hexies. I love hand sewing as well.
That’s awesome!
I just discovered quilt design wall hanging. It is great for placing your designs on the wall instead of a floor or bed. At least that is what I have to use for a big area
I love your videos
Awesome thank you 🤗❤️🪡🧵😊👍🏻👍🏻
I’m the same way with motion sickness! God blessed me with being able to crochet in The car - it’s THE ONLY thing I can do!
Great work!
Thanks!
Hi beautiful, not only you tich us how to sow, your personality chir us up and help us Whit the beautiful words and smiles, thank you so much for your channel 🎉❤ blessings. ❤😊
Thank you so much!
You’re gonna make me try epp! You make it look so fun!
It IS fun!
I like that!! I think mine will be washed after I finish bc all the blood spots. It happens when I do himing. It never fails me!!! 😅😅😅
Oh dear!
I am working on doing a queen size quilt. I have been working on it for 3 years lol 😅 I have made several dish drying mat totes. Love watching your videos, you are so inspiring, keep up your amazing ideas 💡
Thank you so much, I can’t wait to try paper piecing. ❤❤❤
Have fun!
I love EPP. Thanks for a great video. Your channel is awesome ❤
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much. It's all so much clearer now. I can't wait to get started ❤
Yay!!!
I like to put the tiny snips of fabric I accumulate when sewing outside in a tree for birds to use in their nests. My mom was a big bird watcher.
Lovely idea!
You are an excellent teacher.
Thank you!!
I love EPP. Currently on vacation & ran out of fabrics. I ran to the thrift store to look for suitable fabrics. Found some cotton shirts that’ll do very nicely. The rest of the shirts can be used in my stash.
I too have car sickness issues. My husband has renamed me Ms. Hurl-n-Spew. 😂
Oh dear! 😂
Something odd about me- I’ve never enjoyed hand stitching anything. I sew my quilt binding down by machine and if I can avoid hand sewing I will--yet-- one of my other hobbies is cross stitch. Go figure. The only hexi flowers I’ve made are for labels on the backs of my quilts. I even machine stitch it down with a blanket stitch if I can figure out where it will land on my backing before sandwiching my quilt. 😅BUT I do so love hexi flowers and you’re making me excited to try again. Just start a project that I know will be a journey yet something I can always pick up and work on… thank you!
You make everyone want to go sew. and everyone can go to dollar tree. Thrift stores have a lot of new sheets and pillowcases that make skirts and dresses and a lot of different things.
I love your channel. ❤
Thank you so much!
You are happily adorable ☺️
😊 thank you
😊love that idea
Love your videos. I'm a little confused (doesn't take much 🥴) on a quilt, how to you add the batting and backing? Do you have a video on this? I looked but I may have missed it. Tyia❤
This is a great tutorial. I'm glad that I found it because I have a question about another video that I just saw. I saw your video on your "Playground Quilt" and I was wondering what size hexagons you used on it. It's beautiful and so is this coaster.
1.5 inch hexis!
When you do English paper piercing with hexagons, how do you determine the size of hexagon to use for your project? And in the coaster that you're making in this video you said that you are using a 2" hexagon and glueing your fabric to it. What kind of glue are you using? Is it a special fabric glue or a school glue?
What size hexagon papers are you using? I have some of those exact fabric squares, lol

@@shesewsseamsthat is a great price for 300 he is pieces!!
Thank you, I’m excited to get started!
I love this, and I hope to be able to try it soon! (I’ll add it to my list of other sewing & crocheting projects!!). How would you do that on a sewing machine though?
When stitching, do you nic the edge of the papers that are in there?
Sometimes. Ideally you don’t but it’s not the end of the world if it happens!
Are you using a single or double thread? Thank you!
Single!
Can you use knits? Or you have to use cotton fabrics?
I grew up using Bees Wax for hand sewing. It's still sold at JoAnn's, Walmart in fabric dept, and Hobby Lobby🧵🪡
What kind of glue stick do you use?
What size sewing needle is good for this
I use a number 9 sharps
