    Thank you for taking the time to make the tutorial. Love seeing all you have stitched. Need to check on a wool pressing mat I have mine next to the sewing machine with small iron . Saves many steps when needing to iron something and it works GREAT. Time saved means more time to stitch. Keep the videos coming and have a great rest of the summer✨✨✨

      A wool pressing mat is definitely in my future! I've been thinking about getting one for a while.

    Thanks Helen,
    This was a great tutorial. I love your unique ideas for the button, bell and especially putting the thread through the back of the ornament after attaching the cording. That is such an excellent idea and I will remember that.
    I understand why your sister sends you her projects to finish.
    Your ornament came out beautiful.

    What a great tutorial, Helen, thank you! And what an adorable ornament! I'm going to try your yarn trick for pillow corners...I usually use fabric scraps, but am always looking for ways to make better/sharper corners. And now I may have to give cording a try 😉

  • @nancymcfall9778
    @nancymcfall9778 Před 4 lety

    Love the tutorial, thank you for showing us your finish. Matching prints is hard, they have to match at the seamlines and without pressing the seam allowances back I can't seem to eyeball it well enough to match. I'm going to use this finish for some of my littlest projects. Love the button idea!

  • @karenmotsinger3304

    Excellent tutorial! I always struggle with the corners. The fiberfill never stays put and I always end up with floppy corners. Can't wait to try using yarn to fill them.

  • @michellefrothingham4275

    @JackieKLG Před 4 lety

    Bless you for matching the directions on the fabric...I would have just used different fabrics. LOL Love this idea, you also probably have some fun stitches on your machine to try as well. Just practice on a scrap piece to get your settings.
