Your twining is what some of us hairdressers call a rope braid. Its very beautiful.
Thank you, I also now twine my hair instead of braiding it 😁❤️
yes! ever since i started twining fabric a few years back, I end up doing my hair this way too, instead of a braid.
I truly have enjoyed listening to you explain the process. I think your voice is lovely and calming! Thank you for providing tutorials!
When I listen to you teaching, I feel as if I'm laughing with a sister. Thank you for your genuineness.
Such a sweet thing to say thank you ❤️
Спасибо за ваш шедевр
Wow … how many times have I discarded strips of fabric?! But never again. What a brilliant tutorial. Thank you. I often make thinner cord with a lucet (I’ve even made shoelaces) but the fabric cording opens up masses more options. ❤️
I feel the same, trouble is I am the only one of nine sisters who likes to Make things! Thank goodness for online sisters!
@@cathybrelza5055 yes, long live the global stitchy sisterhood 😁❤️
I never knew twining fabric strips was so fascinating! I’ve loved your clear instructions. Looking forward to a tutorial on baskets from twine!
Thank you, here is the basket tutorial ua-cam.com/video/TS3jGq3nH6w/v-deo.htmlsi=ntVvftqiPLWxJk7t 😊❤️
Handmade is priceless! She has so much warmth and soul!!!
Thank you so much 😊
This is such a fun & useful idea! As a lifetime quilter/seamstress I have a room full of fabric, tools, machines, etc... In addition, i have inherited my mother's sewing things. She was a heirloom seamstress, making lovely baby dresses, wedding dresses, etc... all in silks, Swiss & French cottons and beautiful laces. Being a quilter I save the tiniest of scraps and have saved them for almost 50 years. I plan on spending the rest of my life using them up (in addition to my quilts and dresses). The way you've developed this slow stitching would make a wonderful way to teach youngsters to sew. I have a granddaughter who is 7 and anxious to learn. Of course I cant wait to teach her and put together a sewing basket for her. Currently Im hand piecing small quilt blocks. Thank you for sharing this wonderful idea. Its amazing to see how many people are interested. I suppose, because sewing is usually a solitary activity, i forget there are others who do the same thing and do msny who want to learn. Thank you for doing this snd sharing your lovely creations.
My pleasure, your collection of cloth and laces sound scrumptious ❤️ yes I do believe the slowstitch ethos is great for children and in fact novices of all ages, because there are few rules, no emphasis on perfect results and it teaches respect for materials and to enjoy the process. I am truly overwhelmed with the response also, and of course delighted. It feels a little like a cyber sewing bee, community connection through the internet. 😁❤️
Oh wow this is so amazing I have raw silks and lace that I've gathered over the years. I love looking at them and feeling them they're just so precious 💞
Oh that's so awesome that you're teaching your granddaughter these things well it will be such a beautiful gift for her. To learn!Wow💗🤗💞
Thrilled to have found your channel and happily binge watching. Thank you!
Welcome ❤️
I recently subscribed and am binge watching as well. 😊👍
that large soft bowl would be a gorgeous hat. love your little vessel also
The things you make and demonstrate for others to make are so beautiful. I so enjoy your soft, soothing and clear voice. You are so inspiring❤. Thank you so much for your time in sharing all the ways you create new and repurposed cloth, twins, strings etc. I hope to begin a project or two soon! Again, many thanks!
You're very welcome and thank you ❤️
Thank you so much, Kathryn, for sharing this and all your other videos. I have always been someone who did things 'by the book', as that is how I was taught.....but your videos have opened up so many more possibilities for me, and made me accept the fact that there is really no 'wrong' way to do something, just 'another' way......and now i have so many ideas waiting to burst forth! Thank you again! X
My pleasure I am so pleased you are feeling like that. Sometimes I think I am just encouraging people to bodge things 😂❤️
I watched, slept on it, and the next day watched the beginning again and made one then I shared it in your group. It turned out great. You are a great teacher and I love the calmness of your voice. Thank you.
Fantastic! And thank you 😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this, thank you. I loved seeing the beautiful things you have made and am inspired to have a go myself. The colours and textures and the hand stitching are such a compelling combination.
Oh my goodness I love this. I am from the state of Georgia USA. I do all kind of sewing, embroidering and crafting. Your UA-cam channel popped up so of course I had to see what you were all about. I love your channel. I first saw you making the fabric baskets. I have made the fabric baskets using my sewing machine and clothes line cord. Then I watched you hand sew the basket…then I had to watch this video to learn how to make the twine. Now I have a new craft. I like this because it’s a craft I can take with me in the car….on the plane or when I am sitting for a while. It is all so fascinating. I can’t wait to get started but first I am going to finish this video and watch some more of your videos. Thank you much for sharing.
Welcome Shirley, so pleased you are enjoying my channel ❤️❤️❤️
I love watching your videos, your commentary is something that I resonate with so much. It feels like crafting with a friend ❤
thank you, I was just replying to someone that I sometimes feel as if you are all in the room with me. 😁❤️
. Learning an old craft and passing it along is a gift ! This was so interesting and sharing your treasures was inspiring. Too much is mechanized these days. Looking forward to learning more with you. Mary Suzanne from British Columbia Canada
Absolutely agree with you and thank you ☺️❤️
Thank you for your generosity in sharing your makes and your process. Your work is truly beautiful and I am genuinely inspired to get started on my own projects. Please keep your videos coming.
You're very welcome 🤗
Such beautiful pieces. They look lovely with the twine. Thank you for showing how to make it.
Catherine, I had surgery on my hand about a month ago. I’m an avid stitcher and so I took that month and watched a lot of your videos. I’ve really enjoyed it and I’ve learned so much. Now that my hand is healing I will be back to stitching, and hopefully I will be able to use a lot of your techniques and information in the future.
I so appreciate your making this so real. I love the memories you share, and the stories you tell while you’re teaching us.
@@susantancin6528 hello Susan, I wish you continued healing and happy stitching, thank you for your kind words ❤️
I watched your meditation video and OMG I loved it. When I get stressed I now take the pieces of fabric, sew little lines, put it on the wooden thread spool and it is so mesmerizing and settles my mind. Little things in life have more meaning than something big. People have started asking me what my spools are since I have them in quilting room, on display…Love it.
I am so happy they work for you 😊 yes it's often the little things that matter most ❤️
Hello Lovely Kathryn, I wanted to comment to let you know how much I have enjoyed your videos. I feel as if I am right there in your studio with you. I’m so happy to have found your channel! Thank you for sharing all of your skills. Your voice and sense of humor make all of your videos so enjoyable! I look forward to seeing and learning more! Thank you for all that you do! ❤
Hello lovely Janice thank you so much for being here, I am happy you found me too ❤️
cannot wait to start all these projects! soo excited! please keep these tutorials coming
Working on the pouch tutorial, hopefully will be up by Monday 🤞❤️
Oh my goodness - I love it all - the colours, textures, materials... I'm a very happy new subscriber. Just going to get coffee and snacks so that I can settle down and binge watch your channel. Bliss! Thank you. 💕💗❤️
Welcome I hope you enjoy ❤️
Going to start working on these so that I have practice for the Japanese rice bag - so excited for that - and for a friend gift for her book making. Will also work great for finishing my needlework and crosstitch. Thank you!
You are very welcome ❤️
Great tutorial, very clearly explained and a pleasure to watch and listen to. Thank you!
Thank you ❤️
Oh my gosh...this is fun. Love it and thank you so much!
What a lovely presentation & thank you for showing your treasures. I'll definately be twining this weekend!
Happy twining ❤
How beautiful work and so well explained!!! Thank you very much 🌺🦋
You're welcome 🤗
@@k3n.clothtalesfunny, tried this, back and forward the video trying my fingers to follow, until I have given up,, and my fingers already knew how to twine!, I must have done as a child and completly forgotten, but not my fingers. Amazing.
Wonderful! So glad you popped up as a recommended YT video! 🥰🇨🇦
Me too 😀 thank you 😊
All this time I could have been making my own twine! ❤
😁 never too late! ♥️
Love your channel and am watching as much as possible. Thank you for sharing your creativity. 💖👍😊
My pleasure Magda I am pleased you are enjoying it 😊
You have a wonderful voice and demeanor for these videos! Keep them coming!
Thank you very much ❤️
I have so many things to say. first, thank you for this video. second, your little sewing pouch is adorable that fabric is beautiful! third, I have scrap fabric strips I have been saving for years. just to keep my hands busy I used to make braids with the strips. today I was on Etsy looking for some rustic cord for a sewing project when I came across twine. it was what i was looking for, but a tad pricey. so, I decided to come to UA-cam to find a vid on how to make it and here i am. you just saved me a lot of money and put my scraps to great use. i mostly use knit fabrics. wish me luck 😊
@@ambertriplett6929 hello Amber, so glad you found me, have fun making your twine ❤️
This was a delight to watch… from the hand process to ways to use the twine ie bowls… ties… excited to be a new subscriber
Thank you Sherry, lovely to have you join me ❤️
Ahh ❤ You’re getting my creative juices, ……running like high tide 🏃♀️🌊 I’d love to see how you do your basket by hand 😍
Thank you for sharing your talent
You're welcome ❤️
❤ Thank you for teaching a lost art. I am inspired by your video and as a quilter I have alot of fabric. My mind is racing.... with ideas for use of the twine I will be making. 🌺 Again, THANK YOU ❤
You are so welcome! ❤
Fascinating and inspiring, thank you so much for sharing!
My pleasure Ulrike 😊
That was a great quality training video. I learned this from some old souls when i was a teen but you refreshed my fond memories and i believe i will play that forward with my family and local community of artists. Thank you 💞.
wonderful, passing it along is a lovely thing to do, keeping these old crafts alive ♥️
Thank you for being generous with your time to share your knowledge and talent. ❤
My pleasure thank you for being here ❤️
OMG you won me over when you said I used to have dreadlocks!! I have always loved them and would really love to have them.👏🏻👏🏻🌟
I still miss mine! They weighed a ton, full of beads and cloth wraps and stuff, but it was like having an ongoing art project attached to my head. And they patted me on the back as I walked, which was affirming 😂😊❤️
(:
I have been periodically addicted to making twine from my fabric stash, so thanks for showing your baskets! And thank you for saying "funkayyyy" the way you do.
😂😉❤️
Thank you for sharing. You do beautiful work. Looking forward to your next post.
Thank you new video coming tomorrow all being well 🤞❤️
Nice unic hand made things ❤thank you for sharing yr ideas 💖🌹🌹🌹
It's my pleasure ❤
I used my drop spindle to twist the fabric into 'thread''/cord and now I'm trying to figure out if I can spindle the 2 colors into a plied cord.
It works with yarn when I re-ply it into new colors! lol
Not sure how this is going to go. I like the bulk and strength of using cloth strips for shoulder pouch straps and can think of thousands of things to make now [exaggeration]!
I want to make matching twist piping for a jacket I'm about to finish. Should work. lol
Thanks so much for the inspiration and lesson! {I like your version of this project for road trips - no tools to poke my hands over lumpy roads, just a bag of cloth strips - the time will fly because I will be concentrating hard on this project!}
❄❄💚💚💚❄❄
8:57 good advice!
18:26 It makes me want to make a hat out of the twine watching you squish it around like that! lol Future project...
Yes I can imagine using a drop spindle might work, please report back 😉 and yes this is great for road trips.. 😊❤️
Lovely. I've been twining for a bit but at a loss for using my pieces. Thanks so much for sharing.
You're welcome ❤️
Thank you , I enjoy watching and learning . I think making cloth twine should come with an addiction warning, it’s so quick and satisfying to make something from nothing . I made some twine , and then had to made a rice bag to use it, and now I’m on my way to making a bowl. I like that you say ‘ you do you’ , although I like to tear cloth and know I’m on the straight of grain , for my twine I don’t like all the strands of thread so now I cut it, a lot slower but that’s fine .
Thanks again.
My pleasure Margaret, pleased you are enjoying yourself ♥️
I just did my first twinning piece finally and I am hooked. So relaxing and calming.
I’ve tried twining before and loved it but didn’t know what to do with it. Now I have so many ideas. I love your style.
Thank you so much ❤️
Beautiful work, thank you for sharing your method xx
There is so much I am learning from you. Relax sewing is so soothing and inspiring. For the first time in my life I am glad for left overs. I may never sleep again.....haha
Ah yes, so many ideas, too little time, I know that feeling 😁
Thank you for sharing! I'm always looking for new things to learn.
This is WONDERFUL! Please continue posting. (I am now missing England more than ever after having listened to you. Almost weepy. I'm in the States... "sigh..." ). One note; I can barely hear you, so, if you could up the volume that would make a huge difference. Thank you!
thank you, answered re the mic on your other comment. Sorry to make you homesick (?) though 😔❤️❤️❤️
@@k3n.clothtales Stuck in the States and I miss England and banter like yours! ❤
So enjoying your videos. I chuckle away listening to you and am inspired to have more fun with cloth. Thank you
I'm so glad! ❤️
Oh I'm so excited! I learned to make fabric twine a few months ago and have been search and searching for a basket-making tutorial like this. Google didn't help but following you on Instagram led me here!
Excellent, hope you enjoy it ❤️
So glad you are around. Wonderful, inspiring tutorial… thank you.
Thank you and you're welcome ❤️
❤ your voice so peaceful and calming
@@effiewarner1108 thank you ❤️
It’s so beautiful! Thank you very much! 😲😄👍🥰😘
You're welcome ❤️
Thank you for your explanation… I just made my first steps in making a fabric twine 😊 i lov it… wonderful, thank you so much!
lovely pieces❤ thank you for sharing 🙏🏼
Amazing..❤❤❤
I have ten huge bins of various kinds of cloth and have been wondering what to do with it. I am so glad your channel popped up in my feed! 🥰
This is wonderful! I started with the second video, first, and came back. I’ll be saving this for next years Christmas gifts! Thanks, so much!
You're welcome, I believe they call that 'machete order ' 😁😉❤️
4:03 I learned this at school with wool. Another person takes one end and you both twist in opposite directions until tight. You can use one strand or 2 looped through each other to make 2 colours. One of you then grasps the middle with 2 fingers and shakes it rapidly. The 2 sides then rapidly twist together like magic. It may work with fabric too. Love all your creations!
Thank you, yes there are other, faster ways to do this. I just love the process of this way. 😊❤️
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience freely. ❤
You're very welcome 🤗
Great, I learned a lot from you. Thanks. Good luck with your future work.
Very nice tutorial with show n tell. I like your personality and sense of humor.
Shucks thank you 😊
Thank you for sharing! Your work is amazing and look forward to learning more from you. ❣️
thank you so much and welcome ♥️
Great tutorial and ideas for use.
Sound is fine for me on my iPad.
Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome glad the sound is good 👍
I have watched all of your videos and now I plan to check out your Instagram and FB stuff. My creative mind is reeling right now with all sorts of ideas for this coming year. I need to start a project planning journal. You are magical. 😉 ❤️
thank you, your comment only just popped up, so sorry for the late reply ❤️
Looks like fun making the twine. I will have to give a go very soon. I love your videos; very well done. Hugs ❤
Thank you hope you have fun 😀
Excellent tutorial with great examples. Dreadlocks!!!
Thank you, I know! I still miss them 😁❤️
I just discovered your channel! I love what you've shared. My life is much better knowing about twine construction! Nice to meet you K3n of clothtales!
Thank you, nice to meet you too ❤
Many many years ago my nanna taught us to use a door knob and twist it with a knitting needle but this may be easier. I’ll have to give it a try.
There are many ways to do it indeed, this is just the way I learnt years ago and what I love is the only tools you need are your fingers so you can do it anywhere as long as you have strips of cloth. 😁❤️
Thank you. Another world has just been opened up to me. 😅👍😅👍
Welcome to the slooooow world 😁🥰
Delighted to bump into your videos. I learned a lot and I enjoyed tons. Food for the soul. Cheers and greetings from Be’er Sheva, Israel.
Welcome and stay safe ❤️
Excellent, Thank you lovely : )
So glad to have found your site
Thank you for this video. Great way to use scrap quilt fabric I usually throw away.
Yes, even selvedges if they're not too stiff. 😉 And you're welcome 🤗
This is wonderful. Gorgeous ecodyes and finished items alsò.
thank you ♥️
This is a wonderful skill and new to me. The end result is beautiful and useful. I just have to try it and hank you so much for sharing.
You're very welcome ❤️
Such a lovely idea, thank you for sharing, the indigo has a gorgeous colour. Really inspiring 👍🏼💜. Definitely looking forward to your rice bag tutorial can't wait. 👋🏼 greetings from 🏴.
Thank you so much, I love Wales. Many happy holidays in Pembrokeshire. ❤️
Thankyou so much. Very informative.🙋🏼♀️🇦🇺
Great tutorial,,thanks for sharing ❤
Well I made two lengths with you - love the look and so many applications❤
lovely to hear 😊
I would love to see the vessels and the rice bags! Beautiful way to use fabric in a different way. I think of all the cotton I have thrown away because they were to thin lol
😭😂 and that's why I never throw anything away because you never know. 😉 The rice bag is coming next week, the pouch should be up on Monday. Thank you for your support ❤️
🤯, this is fantastic! I love that bag too. I need to make one for my notions to put my needles. But i would so crochet with that twine in a basket or a short waisted shirt or skirt or apron. I could see myself doing, lol.
Oh that sounds fabulous 🤩
Thank you for sharing what you do,it is very clever and looks really nice,you have some lovely ideas will be trying them myself.
Thank you and you are welcome ❤️
So beautiful 😍 Thank you so much ❤Blessing from 🇳🇴 Norway 😊
Thank you too!
Just stumbled upon your channel. Love the ideas, especially the twine🥰
More clips please.👍🙋🏼♀️🇦🇺
Thank you I am working on it, should be a new video tomorrow 🤞😁❤️
What a refreshing video of ideas,thank you so much for such clear instructions,beautiful items,you actually made my day..please keep up your talented work,I've subscribed and look forward to sharing your world..❤
Wow thank you that's a lovely thing to say. Welcome to my world ❤️
I love this so much. Thank you!
Love this! I’ve been looking at ways to make cords for clothing and this is lovely!
Thank you, that's a great use for it. I am not a garment maker but I have used it for ties on my gardening apron and it holds up really well ☺️
The twining you demonstrate is essentially what happens when yarn is "plyed" together on a spinning wheel. So, with that being said and not having read all the comments here, I'm wondering if anyone has tried twining/plying fabric strips on their wheels? Oh dear....yet another project idea to warrant dusting off my wheel! ❤
I am not a spinner but do believe I read a comment somewhere from someone saying they had tried it and I think it worked but don't quote me 😁😁
Super awesome....❤❤❤
Thanks 🤗
Oh & a definate yes please for rice bag tutorial...I have some sashiko squares looking for a home. 🪡
Hope to help accommodate them 😊
I love your videos, you've inspired me to have a go at this. I've got arthritis in my hands so everything takes forever but this actually looks like I could do quite easily :0)
I have very mild arthritis in my left hand, stop often, stretch out your fingers and try not to grip it too tightly ♥️
Thank you for sharing. ❤😊
Really good. Appreciate your work. Love to make a basket.
Thank you, there will be a basket tutorial in the future 😁❤️
Very nice tutorial
Interesting! Doing this with a drop spindle would make it go quite a bit faster.
Yes someone else suggested trying a drop spindle. Personally I like to use my hands and don't mind slow at all 😊❤️ but each to their own 🤗
THANKYOU, I love this tutorial.
You're welcome and I love your name 😁❤️
