  • Hello Shiny Crafty People and welcome back to the channel!
    One of the things I do without enjoying it is BINDING ANYTHING! I don't like making binding, I don't like sewing binding, I don't like finishing binding.
    So when I realized I could cut a single strip and sew the two sides of a pillow to it in such a way that meant it would fold all the raw edges inside and then a single stitch to close up this "fake binding" I was super excited!
    Of course, I should have cut the fabric on the bias and I wouldn't have had to fight it going around the corners, but I love a challenge!
    Oh, and while this quilt isn't available from Walmart anymore, you could certainly buy any kind of pre-made quilt for this project, including this cute one I like from Amazon: amzn.to/42OlFQN

    I like seeing your ideas! I really enjoy how you talk out the problems you come across. It's very educational.
    Keep sharing! ❤

      Thanks for saying that. I really try to do what you talked about. Especially when I make mistakes, because we all do and too often tutorials look like perfection start to finish.

    Very clever idea regarding the binding style, I think it also lends itself to include piping in the centre. I have made many patchwork, appliqued and embroidered cushion covers but never tried that binding method. Many thanks, Tim, for sharing your creativity. ❤

    This is a great idea! I may have to give it a go. I like how you have taken this quilt and made so many items out of it - great job ❤

    Love this idea! I did something similar for a body pillow cover. French seamed it. Wish I'd seen your idea first! Lol! Thank you for sharing all your wonderful ideas with us!

      It’s also a fun way to join pre-quilted blocks in a quilt.

    That is soooo cool, I never made a throw pillow like that, I'm super glad you did this video ❤❤❤ I also love watching how you maneuver your fabric it's interesting...

      I learned from two very different seamstresses and I think I took ideas from both of them. Plus, I’ve spent a lot of time sewing on my own. I’m sure I’ve developed a few unusual habits lol

      We’re they thick? Or did you use a thin quilt? I’m intrigued by that idea!

    • @joycebarbas9390
      @joycebarbas9390 Před 5 měsíci

      They were not to thick. I took a pair of sweat pants as my pattern, did a elastic waistband, used the finished edge for the bottom of legs. Made a jacket too, kinda crazy what you can do. I truly enjoy your videos.

    A little piece of white paper behind the sewing machine needle enables you to see the hole clearly when threading

    Can I ask the type of sewing machine? I'd love a high-speed machine, but, mine would have to have an automatic needle threader.
