Probably not long enough for a dress, it's more tunic length to be worn with shorts or leggings. You can easily extend the bottom edge of the apron to make it longer, but it will gape at the back unless you maybe add snap fasteners to the overlap, c x
Made the first donut and yes I'm making the whole item from pattern, I'm left handed so had to adapt the sewing up of ring, fiddly! But pleased with end practice ring.Forgid g ahead with the real thing! Thank you😊
I'm left handed too. For some reason I forget which direction to start stitching, especially with blanket stitch, to make it easier. Been sewing since I was a kid, you'd think I'd know by now 😆c x
Based on the accent, I am presuming that the Treble in US terms would be a US Double Crochet? Is that a correct assumption? It always helps given the accessibility of these videos to have a statement whether instructions are UK or US terminology. The hands are moving to fast without real close-up to be able to determine based on noting the number of Yarn Overs being used in each stitch. I do like the idea to work over a larger elastic rings that it might be a fidget item on someone's arm.
Yes, it's a UK treble and a US double, but with this kind of 'growing' in the round project you could probably do a US treble and it would just result in a larger ball, c x
To be honest, mine was my grandmother's! I'm sure you can still get them in good fabric/haberdashery stores, or maybe ebay? Clover, Hemline, Pony, or John James are all brands that still seem to make them, c x
I ordered this pattern & received it fine. I like the little apron. However, the directions that came with the templates, were not clear at all. I could not make sense of the directions. I turned to You Tube and found your video. I know that you are the same lady from whom I received the pattern. The video explained the process so well. I was pleased to see it. It just made it so simple for me to sew it. The problem that I could not figure out from the directions was how to sew the dress & turn it right side out. The video was really informative......not so the written directions that came with the templates. Thank you for the video. 🙂
Hi, I'm not aware that we are selling this pattern so I'm a bit confused. Can you give me some more info as to where you ordered it from please? Thanks, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel By the way, the instructions that came with the templates even have some of your wording from the video. Such as, when you talk about your point turner. If you will email me privately, I'll help you with whatever information I have. The different sizes on the other web site are all different prices. When you look on the web site I gave you, you will see. So, with shipping charges, I paid $15.97 for this template. I had ordered it on June 3, 2024. Please keep me posted on this.
@@user-jg6bw7ld8s Thank you for the info, this is a concern for me. I don't think we can private message each other on here but if you'd be so kind as to email patterns@craftihive.com with the link to where you bought it we can go from there, c x
Hiya, I'm afraid the templates are no longer free, but the entire pattern, including the head, spike and base are available from sew-hq.myshopify.com/products/baby-stacking-rings-toy-sewing-pattern?_pos=1&_sid=c81d5acb6&_ss=r hope this helps, c x
I'm sorry, we made this so long ago that I can't remember the particular brand but it would have been scrapbooking paper that may not be available now, c x
Is there a special software or anything used for the stencils? If I use a happy press I cant just print something out and press. What is that material needed to make that heat transfer? 🤔

Ha ha ha, trying to work it out in the first place was, but now I've done all the hard work for you it's worth trying at least once... on a small scale maybe? c x
I think the pattern was a free gift on the magazine a couple of years ago and I don't think we have the license for it anymore. Have a look at www.blossomandfriday.co.uk as she may have the pattern on her website, c x
Brilliant. I used to know this method, but old age and wicked living have clearly affected my brain. I travel with a tiny teddy who has sartorial pretensions and a fondness for fancy vests. I’ve been insisting that if I can manage with just carry on, so can he. He can now have three little vests with six different looks.
Followed this pattern to make a dust cover for my New 3DS. A 7" x 10.5" piece is a snug fit, but works. I used interfacing instead of wadding and didn't bother to top-stitch the flap (my stitching is a bit unfortunate looking). Gave it a pass with an iron instead and it looks fine.
It's a Crop-a-Dile multi hole punch by We R Memory Keepers and looks to be still available in good craft shops. you can use a standard leather hole punch but the one I use goes through multiple layers of paper very easily, c x
Thank you this is an excellent and interesting video. Had an idea for a sort of oversized chainmail fabric jacket. This helps greatly. edit: the glue trick is bloody briliant
I JUST finished a reversible pouch with cats on one side and dogs on the other. The trick was to sew them upside down while facing each other. I made it for my bestie and an oracle deck she has and I made it 10 x 18 because she will keep the mini book with it and more! So cute!!!
