Thanks for another awesome video. I can’t wait to make a pillow
❤❤❤
Awesome video! Thank you so much for sharing your tips and tricks with us. I've always sewed almost all the way around, turn inside out and stitched to bottom closed. I'm going to try it your way. Love it!!!!
🧵🧵🧵
thank you for the clever different way to stuff, close and finish the back. Thank you Arttie.
🧵🧵🧵
Channel merchandise would be fun,so it's a big thumbs up for Merch from me, how supercute are those finishes, you are so talented.

Hello Annie: Lovely seeing you again, love your intro, so lovely. Your sister is still in my daily Prayers.
What an honor to design a pattern for a subscription box, such a pretty design and the finish is amazing, the stocking designs are so sweet, Bluebird Sampler is so pretty, I really like doing small designs every once in a while, Chessie and Me has such sweet designs, Strength and Dignity is beautiful, your designs are so lovely, your framing on Promise of Spring is beautiful, you have a gift for choosing the perfect framing and finishing.
Always and Always so lovely, a sneak peek is a tease, looking forward to seeing the full design.
The pillow is so amazing from Teresa, love the wooden board with jar, great idea for a stitching table, congratulations to the winners. Thank-you for the links.
Congratulations to the winners.
I watch a few videos, Country Stitchers, Asberys Echos, Helen D, Colorado Stitcher, Teresa Kogut, CZook stitch, Liz Mathews, Colorado Stitcher, Northwoods Stitcher, and of course the Proper Stitcher.
GREAT tutorial Artie -- thank you so much!!!
🧵🧵🧵
Thanks so much for the great tutorial! What a neat way to finish the back. I would love to see a tutorial on how you do a flat finish.😊
🧵🧵🧵
Enjoyed the tutorial, thanks for sharing! I can't wait to try the batting stuffed into the corners tip.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for this informative tutorial. I have some pillow finishes in my future and will follow your instructions to have a successful finish. The heart wool decoration was brilliant 😀
🥰🥰🥰
Wonderful tutorial. The pillow turned out so pretty. Walk in Peace.
🧵🧵🧵
great tutorial - have used back slit on big cushions for years but it simply didn't occur to me to use it for the little pillows!! Also batting pockets in corners - brilliant!
❤❤❤
Artie I been watching this video so many times I can’t sew that good but i did make a few mistakes so next time I will know I love all of your floss tube video Thank you so much
❤❤❤
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I am going to be finishing my Valentine cross stitch into a pillow and it will be my first time. My sewing machine and I are not the best of friends but I'm going to to my best. I love love love the seam trick. xoxoxo
You can do it. 🧵🧵🧵
Just had time to watch your tutorial excellent excellent! Now I want to hurry up and Stitch so that I can turn it into a pillow LOL
🥰🥰🥰
Great tutorial! I’m going to try this technique. Thanks for sharing .
🧵🧵🧵
Thanks again for sharing your tips and tricks. 🪡🪡🪡
🧵🧵🧵
I wasnt going to watch this video because I know how to make pillows, but then I thought I would because I might pick up a tip. And I did. Thank you. Great idea using batting in the corners. Here is a tip I'd like to share with you that I started doing. Before I start hand sewing the opening in the back closed, I take a little scrap of the backing fabric and tuck it in that area to cover up the stuffing. It keeps the stuffing from pulling through while you are stitching up the back.
That is a great tip. Thank you. ❤
Great video and tutorial. Thanks a lot . Had helped me a lot and cheer me up to make it the try I feared until now.
🧵🧵🧵
Thanks for the tutorial,like the stuffed corners Thankyou for sharing 👍🇳🇿🪡
🧵🧵🧵
Brilliant 😄 with the stuffing in corners!
🧵🧵🧵
Thanks, so much! A keeper.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for the tutorial. I have a ton to "finish" might try this method.
🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much. I just stuffed a small cross stitch finish and i had a heck of a time with the corners. I will try this next time
🧵🧵🧵
Loved the video. Thanks for the tip on the backing. I'm with you, why hadn't I already thought of that?
🧵🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for teaching me.
🥰🥰🥰
I love the idea of stuffing corners that way and who knew to put the opening in the back! Great ideas.
🧵🧵🧵
Great tutorial ... Thank you for sharing!
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you, found this really informative xxx
🧵🧵🧵
Thanks, Artie. This was great!
🥰🥰🥰
Great tutorial. Thank you so much.
🧵🧵🧵
Thanks for the great tutorial. I have made many little pillows but never used the interfacing. I learned a lot and can't wait until your next show. Thanks again!
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you, thank you, thank you ❣️❣️❣️
🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for your tutorial!
🧵🧵🧵
Just love this video! Love the pillow!
🧵🧵🧵
So helpful...thank you
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for all the tips - the little tips that make "big" differences: batting in the corners, different weight stabilizer, covering oopses, etc. I now feel confident in making pillows! 🎆🎆🎆
🥰🥰🥰
Loved this tutorial! Thank you for sharing.
Just a suggestion…I use a press cloth between my iron and the interfacing…better for iron soleplate! Ask me how I know! It doesn't hurt to have a press cloth under the project too to save the surface you are pressing on from having the interfacing fused to it. Again, ask me how I know! 😉 Thanks for taking the time to share your finishing methods with us!
Yes. I agree. Many irons I have cleaned. Lol 😅
@@thevintagestitcher2022 After I posted this, I thought of something else…some put an old pillow case over the end of the ironing board when they are fusing something or using spray starch, etc. I’m heading in a while to do some sewing, but first I have to clean off a place on the bottom of my iron. 🙄
Awesome video.
🧵🧵🧵
Great video…I learned a lot. 😊
🧵🧵🧵
This was another great tutorial! You are so good at teaching. I like that you show every little detail of how to do the process! Thank you Artie!
🥰🥰🥰
Corner pocket stuffing is so helpful. It worked for me!
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for doing this!! I watched once, but will look forward to rewatching again soon with stitched piece in hand!
🧵🧵🧵
Yes I really like how you used a half inch seam for the back opening and great idea of using bad-ding in the corners Thanks.
🧵🧵🧵
I enjoyed your tutorial. I appreciate how detailed you are at explaining the process. You did a great job! I have never made a pillow, but I feel I can make one now.
🧵🧵🧵
What a great tutorial. I've made many lil pillows in my day. I learned something new today. Thankyou so much.🧵♥️🙂
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you sooo much for doing these videos on how to finish my projects . your instructions are clear and easy to follow. 😃
🧵🧵🧵🧵
I bet some cute ribbon, lace or any kind of trim could cover the seam too.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for all the tips. Cutting the back fabric for turning is a great tip. And putting that batting in the corners. Awesome tutorial. Putting a strip of rick rack down seams would be cute.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you, Arttie, for this video. I learned so much. Stay warm! 🥰
🧵🧵❤
Thanks so much for your tutorial! Always fun to learn something new. Love that pattern and your finish!
🧵🧵🧵
Another great tutorial. I’m not much of a sewer and don’t know how to quilt. So every tutorial really helps me to finish my projects. The corner tip is awesome! The last pillow I did I kept shoving that batting into the corners and it seemed to just keep sliding out. I will definitely try the batting and your finishing tutorial for my next pillow. I’ve never seen a heart cut like that. I would love to see it cut again it looked easy but I couldn’t see exactly how you did that. Thanks again your tutorial was wonderful!
🧵🧵🧵
This was a marvelous tutorial I came upon! Thank you for the brilliant idea!! Love your pillow.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for showing me how to make a pillow. Yes I am nervous about cutting and putting my piece together into a pillow. You have helped me a great deal. Your tips and tricks are great. With your help, I think I can do it. Yay Thank you so much 💓
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you so much for the tips on pillow finishing! Great tips! Have a awesome day!
🧵🧵🧵
When I saw your pillows I wondered how you got them to stay so stiff that is a cleaver idea to use the quilt batting before you put batting in. Really great trick.
🧵🧵🧵
Love your tip for stuffing the corners! Can't wait to try that! Thank you!
🧵🧵🧵
Great job on the mini pillow. I'll give it a try on my next small. Thanks for making it look so easy and thanks for the video 💞
🧵🧵🧵🧵
Loved watching and learning. Thanks so much Arttie. An absolute joy as always xx :)
🧵🧵🧵
I just tried the slit in the back on some small pillows and it’s a dream! My old method of sewing up the seam never looked great. Thanks so much for you patience in teaching us all new tricks!
🧵🧵🧵
Terrific tutorial Arttie! The technique of stuffing batting into the corners is brilliant! I have struggled with corners for years.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for the great tutorial. You are such an inspiration to me and others.
🧵🧵🧵🧵
Hi Artie, that was a great idea making a small pocket and also stuffing the corners with batting. Thank you for your time and your expertise. I love the finished product.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for this enlightening tutorial! I have never finished a pillow stuffing it via a hole on the back. And certainly am going to try your tip for the corners. I will let you know my pillows turn out!
🧵🧵🧵
This was such a great video. I love how you put the split in the back. It is so neat. Much neater than cutting afterwards. Keep them coming.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you. I am enjoying your finishing tutorials. I seam my backs the same way that you do. I just finished a pillow for my granddaughter’s birthday and stitched a small pocket on the back in matching fabric to cover the seam, so she could use it as a tooth fairy pillow. That’s a great tip on stuffing corners using batting.
🧵🧵🧵
Oh my goodness! I have been stuffing little pillows for years and didn't know about this trick! That's so cool that you end up having all 4 sides nicely stitched. This will be my new way of stitching little pillows
🧵🧵🧵
Great tutorial. Been a sewer all my life, never stuffed a pillow, have a finish I've been staring at, now I'll do it. Would love to sit in your sewing with you.. thank you..
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you!! Wonderful tutorial! I have never finished anything yet and I don’t sew, but you have inspired me too!! I am newly retired and have the time to learn a new craft of finishing!! But first I need to buy a sewing machine & some lessons! Look forward to your next video!
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I did learn alot. I have been following you since day 1, You are a terrific person, and I do look forward to your videos all the time. I am glad you are feeling better.
🧵🧵🧵
I love the pillow finish. I just finished a pillow and used your corner method, worked great. Thank you!
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you so much for these tutorials. They have come at just the right time. One of my goals for this year is to do a better job at FFOing. I have a rather big inventory in my “mocking” box of finishes. After watching your tutorials I have gotten five done in the last week. At this rate I may have the box emptied by the end of the year. Have a great day!
🧵🧵🧵
Great tutorial! I never thought about making a seam in the back, I always cut a hole and stuffed it that way. The seam makes it more secure. Here's a little tip on how I cover the hole in the back....I use HeatnBond ironed on the back of matching fabric,( I'm assuming you can also iron it on the back of wool as well, I've not tried it before), I then trace my shape on the fabric, cut it out and then iron over the hole, it works great. Great tip on how to stuff the corners! Thank you
🧵🧵🧵
Great tutorial Arttie! Super cute finish. I just did my first finishes this past Christmas. I finished 2 flat pieces and 3 ornaments in hoops. I have a couple pieces that I want to finish as pillows. I will use your tutorial to guide me. Thanks so much! ❤️
🧵🧵🧵
Absolutely love that pattern and fabric, they’re perfect together 😍
🧵🧵🧵
Great tutorial! 48:09
I have an idea on how to do a Christmas ornament that I have done already.
🧵🧵🧵
Very informative and glad you gave us the tip on the batting in the corners, great trick. Funny you mentioned pins, I am a serious pinner, I use lots of pins when I sew, just me 😆 One question or advice, when you add your buttons to the back do you use the same glue? I have several jars of the clear and mother of pearl buttons that would look great. Just a thought since you mentioned finishing with some buttons. Thanks Arttie 🥰
Yes just aleenes glue.
Can you show how you knot your thread please .
Yes I will show it in an upcoming video. 🥰
Thanks for talking interfacing.
🧵🧵🧵
Thank you so much for taking the time to go over this for us. I’ve learned so much. Have you ever use sawdust or walnut shells to stuff? Is that easy or more difficult?
I have not. Most of my pillows are purely decorative.
What pattern is that ? It’s beautiful! Thank you for doing this for us! I soo appreciate it ! X
That is a Brenda Gervais schoolhouse ABC. It is a series. I didn't stitch it.
Can you explain what one over one means?
