Great video Christine! Does it take you longer to edit when you’re batch sewing? Always love your videos and like many others, get excited when I see the RU-vid notification is yours.❤ I’ve finally got my cutting table cleared enough so I can actually utilize it and feeling motivated to be in here again. I cut and clipped 10 expandable storage bags while watching/listening to this video. I’m going to try using those little hangers many of the fabric samples come on for the top. Will let you know how that goes. Hugs from Nevada, Cathy❤

Thanks Cathy. Yes, it take a lot longer to edit these types of videos, as I do separate voice overs for the sections that I speed up. I also repeat myself several times when giving instructions which take ages to edit out too. I love putting podcasts or YT videos on when I sew, but can't when recording. It's so good that you managed to get so many bags cut out in one video, and do let me know about the hangers. I'm yet to use them in a project😀

I know it's swings and rounabouts, but to make top stitching your second side by the zipper easier, how about joining your back panel to the base and topstitching after youve top stitched both sides of zipper? Just a thought. I do so love your videos Christine ❤

I use the bobbin trick in my Anish Star potholders. I can use any color on the top and bottom. I have different sized caps for my top thread, and frequently use a bobbin there as well. There's a lot of stitching, and starting and stopping. I get a lot of bobbins back. I only need to match thread when I quilt the rows and the binding. 😊
@ChristinesHomeAffairs

@barbaramason7636 5 месяцев назад
Another great instructional video on bags. I love your colour coordination, matching vinyl to upholstery fabric. I have used those faux leather labels myself and found putting double sided tape on the back holds them in place, but my problem was stitching around the label in a way that gave equal distance from the edge on all 4 sides. Often coming to a corner I was a bit too far away to pivot, and if I took one more stitch it would place me too close to the edge. Do you have any tips on this? 🙂🇨🇦
@ChristinesHomeAffairs
@ChristinesHomeAffairs 5 месяцев назад
Thanks Barbara. I also found that putting the DST on the back was helpful, and the vinyl foot. That really made a difference. As for the stitch length, I've seen some people raise their foot and move the label back or forth to enable a full stitch to be completed at the end. Does that make sense? I'm fortunate that my machine has a half stitch and a quarter stitch, so I can use that to make smaller stitches.... Oh wait! You could sew almost to the end, then reduce your stitch length, turn the corner, with normal length, then reduce at the end again and so on. Tedious I know, but all I could come up with😀
@barbaramason7636
@barbaramason7636 5 месяцев назад
Thanks, Christine. I did use the method of dialling down the stitch length as I approached the corner and you’re right, it was tedious. I only have a few labels left, so once they are gone, I think I will order metal ones.

If you put those swatches in a hosiery bag, would that keep the gooey paper bits from getting all over the machine and other clothing? I do know what you're facing with that goo. I had 3 little girls who loved stickers. Inevitably, a few would be overlooked and go through the wash. If they made it through the wash, I would have a bright pink Barbie sticker staring at me inside my dryer! Oh what a pain, but not as bad as a missed crayon! Oh my goodness, what a mess!😂

I've tried washing them in an enclosed pillow slip Sharon. I managed to get a lot of the paper off, which left flakey bits all over the inside. Unfortunately the fabric ended up with flakey bits all over it as well everything getting frayed and tangled. It was the most successful method I've tried, but also the messiest. I sat on the lawn out in the back yard removing all the bits from the swatches😀

Thank you for another interesting video and your time you give for it. 😘 I have been sewing small bags for many years, so I already knew the sewing technique. However, I am still learning a lot from you. You taught me how to use double sided tape. This makes sewing in zippers so much easier for me. Using labels was also at your suggestion. Your use of upholstery fabric also gave me new inspiration, so that I now have a good (slightly too large😇) stock of it. Some bought on E-Bay and some for free. I have already sewn and sold or given away many sample swatch bags. Sometimes I am very jealous of the wonderfully colorful fabrics you have. I want to reach through the screen and steal some of them. Seems like people in Germany prefer all variations of gray and brown for their furniture. So it's hard to get swatches with beautiful colors and patterns. When I don't have time to sew, I often watch your videos for inspiration and to look forward to upcoming projects. Your voice is so pleasant that I enjoy listening to your videos while sewing. Now I'm looking forward to the next video about your best-selling products of the last three months. Hope you will continue. Hugs and Greetings from Germany❤❤❤

Haha, that's so lovely Sybille. I also see beautiful fabric that others have and think "ooh, why don't I have that!", and aside from the upholstery fabric (which I love to sew), the two most important items for my sewing business have been my labels and double sided tape. My three monthly report is due today, so will film it this morning, and hopefully have it ready this evening. 😀

If only it were that easy Tina. Using the heat press is always my first step, and has been the most successful so far, however some companies use glue that wont release with heat, or by any other means. Cutting is always my last resort.🙂

Christine, you did a wonderful job of color coordinating those upholstery fabrics with the vinyl. And I love that pansy fabric. You are so right about the Dritz double sided tape. It is the first and only kind I have used. When you would say how easy it was to remove the paper tape from the double sided tape, I was so frustrated at my ineptitude at removing it. But I feel validated now that it was me and not the tape. Thank you again for your great editing and teaching skills.

Thanks so much Elaine. Even though the Dritz doesn't gum up the needles, it is a real pain to use😁
