I am just learning, so I appreciate your calm voice and that you took the time to go over every step and supplies. I look forward to more videos from you. the birdies are adorable!
I had to check how long this was Lisa, becasue it did not feel like I had sat here from start to finish 😀 thank you for all of this information, much appreciated.
Thank you so much. I've watched a billion videos on stitches and yours is the best.
First time watching you, and so loved your tutorial. Your explanations and demo was excellent. I learned a new way of doing appliqué as opposed to the stitching of many years ago. Thank you.
Thank you, this has been very helpful!
Hello! I hope you had a great day! I spent my day sewing with talented ladies on line. Now, I'm going to sit with my hand quilting and watch your video. I hope you have a marvelous week ahead. Thank you for posting this video and for your time.
THANK YOU for all the content you have the most beautiful skin
Instead of muslin for turned applique use a very lightweight fusible interfacing. Sew to fabric with fusible side facing the fabric. When you turn the applique the fusible is on the outside. You can still cut out the center to reduce bulk, but now you just need to iron in place. No glue. No potential mess. 😊
Absolutely. This is a fantastic technique.
Thank you.
Some of my clients don’t want any plastic or polyester in their quilts or even coasters so muslin is good for those
Thanks for sharing this cute project, Lisa. One thing you might want to add to your supplies is a thimble. It really helps when going through multiple layers.
I can't thank you enough for this well-done video for beginners! I am so glad I found you and I look forward to viewing your others!
Cannot tell you how much I appreciate this video. You have filled in all of the gaps for me so now I can try appliqué. I am off today sewing coasters and cat mats to sell and I may just finally get creative and add personalized appliqué. I even have all of the bonds and webs, and muslin…. Just never understood how to prep the piece and attach it, using all of the stuff 😅. Just watched a few of your older mug rug videos and your be grateful flower pattern appliqué using freezer paper and washable Elmer’s. Glad you’re still using the glue 7 years later. I do use glue often when binding or hemming. I’m a novice, it just made sense. Think I ran out of pins or didn’t know what basting meant, was probably using the wrong stitch length lol 😂 so I’ve been using glue ever since. Thank you so much! Really enjoying your videos. ❤
The more you learn the simpler each stitch becomes. Crazy patchwork quilts embroidered done on each block is a great way to learn new stitches.
I just discovered slow stitching and I’m zenned out ….love it.
Thank you ! Hand stitching is very relaxing and calming. I’m so glad you explained the blanket stitch. I never could do that stitch. Thank you. It’s a joy to watch your videos, I learned something every time.
I machine sew but never hand stitch unless I was repairing something. I feel brave enough to try these little birds.
Thread Magic is fantastic especially when using metallic threads that typically tangle....
Thanks Lisa, Your little bird looks so cute! I never knew how these stitches were made. ❤️ Thanks again, 🥰 Chris
Lisa, this was such fun to watch and refreshed my memory on these stiches I haven't done for over 30 years. Yours are so cute and your fabric choices are beautiful. I can't wait to do hand sewing on mine. Thank you so much!
This is a very informative video. I'm just learning to embroider and this video is wonderful. I like the way you explain and you don't rush through like so many youtubers do.Thank you so much for sharing! ❤
Those little birds are adorable! Great jobs on the stitching 😊
You did a great job of explaining everything you did as you went along. I have made some quilts, but never finished them except for the first one. I will be looking at more of your videos to gain more information of finishing my other two quilts. It is fun to learn these stitches. I look forward to using them. Thanks for taking the time to do this video.
This has been very helpful. I like the first method where you sew muslin to the pieces.
Thank you! Your demonstration and explanation is extremely helpful and I now feel confident enough to give this a go. And I love your cute little birds!
A very nice tutorial Lisa. Thank you. I do applique by machine and I am very good at it. Now…hand stitching…I am not so good at it. I came for a refresher so I can do a hand stitched wool project. This was everything I needed to get started.
This tutorial has helped me tremendously. I was a little confused about t some things, but now I have much more clarity. Thanks, Lisa. Pat Berne
These little birds are adorable. I got the pattern and will do these when I finish what I am doing right now. Thanks a million for all of your ideas and sharing them with us.❤🙂
Where do I go to get pattern.
Lisa, instead of the muslin, perhaps try used dryer sheets. Works like a charm.
Great tip
Brilliant Lisa have really loved watching this, I’m not a hand sewer either but the turned edge appeals to me, thanks for doing this
Your tutorial is so useful and simple to understand! Thank you
Thank you for taking it nice and slow. You have a new follower!!!
Thankyou Lisa, you have whet my appetite to get out some applique and have a go. It is quite a while since doing any applique which I have enjoyed in the past.
Very inspiring for me to consider trying. Thank you for sharing. I still want to explore machine couching it is on my bucket list of things to learn and master.
Super cute birds! Thanks for the tutorial! 😁
Brenda 🎉
I’m drooling over your pearl cottons!!!!🤤 I love those colors!
Thank you for allowing us to learn along with you
So cute…loved listening to all your tips…and watching you work…very inspiring
Thank you Lisa. This is so helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for taking the time to show everything. Very cute pattern.
Your little birds are so cute ❤
Great example of how you start the blanket stitch. Yours is clean without that extra slant stitch I see on some samples. 😊
Lisa,. Thank you for sharing your tutorial tonight. I have learn so much from you. You are wonderful!! I just purchased a small wool project and I can't wait to start stitching!! You have explained this so well that I heading back to the store to purchase my needles and thread. God Bless you. Laurie
Thank you for the detailed hand stitching all your videos are helpful and useful for the little hand Stitching I do, thanks again. Love ❤️ all your videos
Enjoyed your video, darling little birds!
Absolutely LOVE this project!! I have Never done turn edge ever... so yay! here we go! looking forward to all the things too!
Thanks for sharing
Really cute birds. Luv all the funky stuff. Traditional quilts are pretty but I prefer all this funky door stuff more. Stuff out of the box. Thanks so much. Want to make a gardening journal for my best friend with yr birdies for the front and thru out for a reminder for her to get started. Keep up the funky. Luv ya.🥰
Very cute appliqué projects, extra love for the little coaster. Thanks for sharing 👍❤️😊
That was fun! I have always wanted to know how to make the blanket and couching stitches. You do such a good job teaching. Thank you for all you do!
Found you today by accident (or was it) 😊 love your tutorial! I look forward to watching and learning more.
these are adorable! tfs! 😊
I had a lot of fun watching this video and I learned a lot thanks
I have pearl cotton thread and DMC thread (think 80’s friendship bracelets, like using a safety pin and twelve strands, no pattern… what we did to keep busy since there were no cellphones). I bought them because they were included on an appliqué list but haven’t learned how to use them, how many threads of each, etc. You have made this so enjoyable I may spend the time to practice. Hand sewing is getting easier as I get older and develop patience, too bad the eyes are going 😊. Thanks again! And yes, the Aurifil is wonderful! My go to was the poly blend from Joanne’s but it breaks sometimes during quilting. Now I use Aurifil for quilting, it’s expensive, but worth it, and lasts a long time! Quilt in a Day has excellent sales on it, and runs great clearance fabric sales. I will warn you though, the Aurifil can be tedious and break while threading my brother cs6000i, maybe because it’s 100% cotton and not a poly blend? Idk. But well worth it. I’ll try Sulky next.
Ty, I love chickens
Thank You Lisa for this tutorial on stitching and applicating these sweet little birds. I very much enjoyed this showing how to do these stitches. But I'm a bit visually challenged actually I'm legally blind, but have enough straight ahead vision to be able to sew. But have a difficult time seeing some things, so I would have liked to see a close up more of the stitches. While you were sewing them watching I was watching this on UA-cam on the TV, and was a little hard to see actually see the needle placement. I could understand it though because I did do some embroidery in the past before I lost my vision. I used to do Brazilian embroidery. And regular DMC embroidery. But I haven't done it in a really long time so this was like a refresher. I would hope to see more stitches that you're going to be doing in the future because this video was very enjoyable. And more little applicate birds or flowers would be really great to see thanks again.marion bartley
These are so cute! I want to make a bird "family" for each of my kids and the # in their family!
Thank you for all the time you spent teaching and recording this! I'm glad to learn your approach to this. Might be helpful to have the menu in the description (that time-menu that you had onscreen at the beginning) .
Yes, if you add the time stamps into the description we can click on the numbers and the video with jump to that time automatically. 💖🌞🌵😷
Thank you for the lesson, A great teacher.
Lisa Lori Holt sells interfacing that's sew in That's really wonderful for turned edged applique. The weight of it is light but has a good body to it I've been using it for a long time and really like it. You can buy it in her fat quarter shop, or on Amazon.
Enjoy your enjoy your videos completely
Love love your work. Beautiful
Thanks Lisa. This was awesome
I love hand stitching 😍
Always enjoy your videos!
Good instructions Lisa . Thank you for sharing this.
Brilliant tutorial. Thank you.
Scoring with the pin? OMG I needed that tip! Getting the paper off from the edges was driving me crazy.
Thank you so much! You teach this well 😊
DesignAndBeMary has a great video on how to get your blanket stitches even on the top and bottom. 💖🌞🌵😷
What a darling applique! I am preparing to learn hand quilting. I recently purchased a book on all things needlework.. its actually a needlework encyclopedia! I was reading about couching and the other stitch you did around the bird.
I love your teaching method as well! Thank you! And fyi, the heavyweight eleganza threads you shared.. i have seen in other videos as well.
Great video and your work is super neat! Thanks for lots of variations and info on the tools!
Hi Lisa. Love your applique work!
Thank you for your help and kindness.❗🌹🙏🦋🎈❤️
Thank you so much for this tutorial! It was so helpful and easy to follow! New subscriber!
Thank you for the tutorial. I had never done a couching stitch before👍❤️
Thank you love your video. I will give it a try with all the tricks and informations you gave us. xx
Lisa I use used dryer sheets instead of muslin doesn't add the bulk an is easy to turn
I could never get my stitches even so my mother suggested i do a machine stitch with loose tendion that is easy to remove. This works for me. I have done often. I just counted machine stitch to measure length. My nane id Mary from Arkansas
Great tip!
Such a fun project! Thanks for sharing……………
Loved the video, thanks!
Love this look!
UNA CLASE MAGISTRAL!!!! PERO PREFIERO LA MAQUINA ,NO TENGO PACIENSA PARA HACERLO A MANO ,GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR SUS CONOCIMIENTOS.
This looks really fun💗
OMG! OMG! This is awesome!!!!!🤯🤩
8:12 if you don't want to turn the beak and you don't want to have raw edges, you could just embroider the triangle. A satin stitch would be nice. 💖🌞🌵😷
This looks amazing thank you, but I didn’t understand how the fabric is stuck to the template please explain, so grateful for your efforts ❤
I'm not sure which template, but if you mean 9:20. She's using the pieces with the iron on fusible already attached to the wrong side of the fabric. Most glued won't stick to silicone. Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵. Take care of yourself 😷.
How super cute 🥰
Sweet, sweet lady❤
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Great tutorial! New subscriber.😊
Re: French knots. I have had the experience that if you go back down the same hole you came up that the knot has popped through the hole (especially if your needle makes a bigger hole in the fabric). So I always go back down a thread or two next to the spot where I came up. Then there is no possibility of the knot popping through to the back. (Something that is valued when burying a knot in quilting.) 💖🌞🌵😷
loved it!
I have missed you , my tablet broke and I used my husband lèt me use his tablet . But I had a 🧠 clog. I could not for the life of me. I could not ŕember your last name! I have finally found you again and I am subscribed again! I have been down with a huge hematoma on my knee I has taken since Christmas night to fill back in and grow skin and a scab, I thought it never would heal. But I am back with a new tablet
Love it!!!!
Thank you I enjoyed your tutorial very much . Now I want to try it and yes I will get that pattern of the bird he is so cute!! What was the holder that you used at the end it was really cool!!! Looking forward to your next video!!
Very nice video....just came across your video.....BTW, did I miss something? Which thread did you decide to use and if it was DMC, how many threads did you use? I"m sorry if you showed it I will look again....appreciate it and you!!!
I mark my thumb with the length that I want for blanket stitch xx
Can you show us how to put the finish backing on the back of the piece? How do you hang it?
Thank you for your tutorial , I love your style of teaching....very patient and clear. I am wondering if the "Blue Birds" piece was all machined stitched ? It looks like you used the blanket hand stitching on the bodies and wings ...but maybe it was a machine stitch?
Yes, the stitching on the blue birds was done on the sewing machine :)
@@TheQuiltmakerHomestead many thanks ... I have a lot to learn!
the friction pen link above~ is this for fabric? doesn't seem like it
Delsiy good work
What is these call you used on your light box plesase
🙂LISA, Don't apologize for anything. We know you are not a "paid professional". We also know you are a very sweet woman, kind enough to share your many talents with us. AND to you snarky people out there, that like to critisize, knock it OFF. If you think you know it all, then start your own You Tube channel !🤨
thank you SO MUCH for the encouragement! I appreciate that more than you know :)
