Hell yeah 3rd Edition! Saw that. 😂 I’ve gone a bit overboard and gotten a yard each of 4 real badass fabrics… but I couldn’t find the mental fortitude.
Sam of all Trades (very funny, as you know what my dad would say), I am working on a program to empower kids to unplug as they learn, earn, and help others as they have a ton of fun beeing a little greener, that could help a cause you support and reach well over 10k possible subs. Jeff. P.S. I've helped raise 33 suicidal kids in 19 One-parent families, funded by my businesses, over my life, and this is my last project.
So I’ve been struggling HARD with a different dice bag pattern and I came across this one while trying to find a tutorial for the pattern I already have and this seems so much simpler! Now I’m just mad at myself because I got ahead and cut all my fabric before struggling with the sample and I’d have to buy more to switch to this pattern :( Does anyone have beginner friendly advice for making this a square bottom? I too struggle with the circle!
Oh no! I hate when that happens. I think, to make a square bottom, you would just cut 4 strips, the length of which would be the height of the bag. Then I would sew those onto the square bottom before sewing them together. Adding a lining should be the same steps. I haven't tried this though, so you may want to try a mock up with some cheap sale fabric or muslin. I'll play around with it too, and maybe a make video for square bottom bags!
This is going to be useful to rewatch tomorrow while trying to use my sewing machine to stay away from velvet texture hell! (I got stuff to make chess and checkers pieces and it apparently came with a velvet bag but I can't stand the feeling. So I am going to make one to save me)
It will depend on what kind you use and how strong you want your candles. It should have instructions on the bottle if the fragrance oil is intended for candles. The kind I used was 1 oz oil/16 oz wax.
Hello! I was wondering if I may use your pattern to make bags so I can sell those bags. :) If I may be so honored to do so how would you like me to credit you?
These are great tools and ideas. I've heard of online tools but haven't had them explained before (e.g. Roll20) and have only recently gotten back to playing D&D myself. As a DM, I use Notes on my iPhone to get ideas down when I think of them and Pages to keep a log where I record what happened after the session. For the campaign, I simply use a folder hierarchy where I chuck in photos and ideas/inspiration, as well as a log where I record changes. With the actual adventure, if it's a home-brew one I've created, I usually try to create a document in the style of classic modules (even using the old D&D Korinna font) with keyed areas, monsters, treasures, tables and so forth. If it's a print book I use Post-its or paper clipped additions/pics. I like to have a soundtrack, like Skyrim Exploration Suite, and use Quick Look for showing images. You've inspired me to try to use a bit more tech! I hope that more people like me will discover your channel because you seem cool and have some great ideas. Your D&D games must be fun!
Thank you for all your kind words! I think it's cool that you create documents structured like the classic modules! And hey, post-its are always handy. I had to turn to more online/digital options when my friends moved away. I still prefer paper and pen, minis, and maps. But I'm grateful to live in a time with a lot of options!
Hi Sam, have only discovered your channel and look forward to checking out your videos. Thanks for sharing and hope you go well. I'm sure we all want you to put your health and happiness first. I can already tell that I'm going to enjoy your sense of humour. Cheers
i really like this tutorial! very clear and everything is explained well, and also with enough humor and bits that it's very entertaining! the random bird noises also elevated it for me personally. thank you for making and sharing this!!
All the cool fabrics are from a website called Spoonflower where artists can make their own fabric prints. I just order the fat quarters for the dice bags. The linings are just basic satin form my local fabric store.
It's because the wax shrinks as it cools. Larger amounts of wax will mean that there is more likely hood for holes, but temperature is also a factor (i.e. if the wax cools very quickly, you're more likely to have holes - as I learned the hard way when I impatiently put my candles outside in the winter). There are a couple easy ways I deal with it: You can pour the wax in smaller batches at a time, allowing that amount to fully cool before adding more. Or you can add small amounts of hot wax over the top and holes after the majority of the candle has cooled - this is what I usually do because I'm lazy.
Thank you for walkthrough! I bought some patterns off Etsy but the directions were....less than needed. This helps so much. This will be my first sewing project. I look forward to seeing more of your content!
Not at all! At least, according to my family and the stories I've been told. I washed mine before using them; since they came from my horse, they were quite dirty. :)
Thank you bunches!! It was so straightforward and easy to tangibly follow along. I am surprising my 13-year-old with a Monster Drink one. #Coolmomgoals.....
