You all have been asking how I make my thread art rope bowls. In this video, I share my secrets with you so you too can make one with your sewing machine. Christopher's luxury bag website www.christophernejman.com
OMG! quit hairdressing in 2016 because of politics. I could not stand clients thinking I was their sounding board. I love sewing and crafts, very relaxing. Good job on this video
I truly enjoyed this tutorial. Thank you so very much for sharing your secrets in this video. I have been inspired by you once again to try something out of the box with my sewing machine. I could watch your videos and listen to your words of wisdom all day.
I used to have a custom drapery workroom and we did hand-guided quilting for bedspreads. We used two threads in the top. Often I couldn't find a thread that matched the spread, so I'd find two that when blended perfectly matched the colors in the bedspread. Knowing that and watching you do this gives me a lot of ideas.
Hey, I have had no luck finding colorful rope but thank you for the reminder to keep looking. Maybe I can wrap colorful fabric strips from scraps around plain rope and sew that.
When I make rope bowls I haul out my vintage Singer Model 319 (circa 1956) - yeah, it is ancient but for some things the stitch quality rivals my Brother Top Of The Line😏 I have a crazy a$$ed idea for making a rope bowl with my Coverstitch machine that does both Top and Bottom coverstitch. I will not know until I try.
Hi, I do rope bowls, never used double thread only fabric wrapped, but I saw a cool tutorial after making bowls to decoupage design paper napkins onto rope with Mod Podge. I loved the effect. Thanks & Blessings!
Thank you, I'm going to try this. BTW I have elna 720p which is the same as janome 6700. It has 4 zig zags, two will go to the 9mm width the other two only 7mm because they are labeled right and left. I'm thinking you machine has another zig zag
@@marthaswartz882 good to know, 3 of those zig zags I mentioned are in my decorative stitches. I was surprised that they duplicated the 9mm zigzag in the decorative stitches.
@@carolc864 I just looked in my decorative stitch category and saw a file that had a zip-zag stitch. I increased the width and it went up to 9mm. Now why did Janome do it this way?? TY.
I really liked your video on your bowls but I have clothes line rope and was just wondering if you had tried it or would the rope fall apart with that much thread being sewn in it. Thanks for writing back and keep making videos, I just was scrolling through RU-vid and saw you.
Thank you for these tips on using serger thread….GENIUS! Your bowls are beautiful and I love your creative generosity. One of the things I have used to make my bowls stiffer was Mod Podge in the matte finish. It really worked for me.I am running to my dollar store….😂
@@DeborahYost-pi9tt you never know until you try. I do not wait for permission from others, and that is why and how I discover new ways of doing things on my own. Try it.
You are using a VERY expensive machine directed to a fraction of people with high buying power. What about teaching us, not so powerful AND owning only a domestic sewing machine but would live to recreate what you are teaching?
