Welcome to DoodleDog Primitives! I love to design and make new primitive style folk art. On this channel, I share with you some crafts I have made and how you can make them too. I also have some helpful videos to get you started with punch needle and rug hooking. Many of my designs have been made into patterns so you can also enjoy making some folk art.
So adorable! Iuv, luv, luviiitt! I volunteer as a catechist at Church and this will make a beautiful gift ornament for the children. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks sooo much! I was struggling with how to cover my styrofoam balls and this turned out to be exactly what I had in mind but just didn’t know it!!! Now I know it and feel equipped to do it!!!
I have an antique child's coat that is discolored and I'd like to dye it but I'm concerned because the fabric is delicate. I don't know if it would hold up to boiling?
I would be concerned that it would shrink when boiling. I haven't tried them but I believe there are some cold dyes that you might try. The fabric I am using I want shrunk so the boiling doesn't matter. Good luck!
Those screws you used- did you just go straight through the MDO and into the sheet metal? We have the same situation here. My husband thinks that's the easiest way to go about this. Did you need to seal anything from the inside where the screws went through?
I did it as you described. Straight through the MDO and sheet metal into the boards on the inside that the sheet metal is screwed to. I would have liked to seal where the screws went through the metal but didn’t think of any way to do that.
Amy, so many ideas, wow! Thanks! Did you add any type of interfacing when punching on the tea towel? Or is the towel woven tightly enough? I am still working on my first project from years ago. I am determined to get it done before Christmas this year!😊
It has been a while since I made that tea towel, but I believe I did use some interfacing on it, similar to how I punched this project: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jKT-Tpl4c-M.htmlsi=JOFdi2UPGCA8sOXa Keep punching!
Thank you for the sheep pattern and the tutorial. This is just perfect for small gifts for friends. You are very talented and I always enjoy your posts. Happy Fall!
Yes, he screwed through the barn quilt and through the tin on the barn into the wooden structure of the barn. The screws were spaced to align with the wood behind the tin.
My question was, which finished edge was preferred? The comments answered that question. I will definitely try the hand stich method. Thank you for the good comparison tutorial! I was very helpful.
Thank you Amy! So helpful - Love the chain method! 🫣 If I painted in another color, would I still use the same paste wax? And what texture sandpaper did you use? 😊
I used a 180 grit sandpaper. I don't know why you couldn't use the same wax. You could always try it on a test piece of wood first to make sure you like the effect. Have fun creating!
Thanks Amy! I really like the design of that board. That turbo glue is the best but dries quickly so you have very little time to move and position the piece.😊
Hi thanks for the information. I’m unable to find the weavers cloth in Joann’s or any of my craft stores, where did you purchase your cloth? Thank you in advance.
