From quilting tutorial videos, I got the idea of using washable glue stick on fabric and ironing over the glued fabric before sewing. But if I forget to iron, it will mess the machine, especially those computerized sewing models. Thank you for all your videos. I have gotten a lot of inspiration. Love your sense of colors and your art.

That was a very clever way of making these pouches! Thank you for sharing your process & tips! I’d wondered about contact paper, myself, as I don’t have a “laminator” machine. I will try this.

I very much enjoyed your pouch video--I have some matte contact paper and will have lots of fun with your creative idea! A promo for this video was on my Home page so I thought I'd check it out and am glad I did. I'm now a new subscriber. TFS!

This was very interesting. I have successfully run the contact paper through my laminator. Adhere as you have done and encase the leading edge inside a folded piece of printer paper to be sure nothing gets jammed. I usually run it through twice. An amazing transformation of the card stock. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing your thought process. It's so helpful to have a visual of it and the end result is beautiful. MyLifeInABullet has a DIY Bullet Journal tutorial that shows how to set the eyelet with that type of eyelet setter. I'm not sure if you've seen it. Keep up the great work! You've earned a new subscriber.

What about a laminator machine

@happylablady 3 жыл бұрын

Crazy question.....where can I find the round things with the string ? I love your videos.

@MelanieSullivan 3 жыл бұрын

Hi there! I made them. I used a circle punch to make the shape and then attached it with a brad. I tied the string on underneath the circle on the brads post. It's pretty simple to do, but you'd need a brad to make it work. Hope that helps!

Can you use laminate sheets? Those are really cute.

@MelanieSullivan 4 жыл бұрын

Sure! I think laminate sheets would work great too!

What size of needle did you use?

@MelanieSullivan 3 жыл бұрын

For sewing paper, I just use a general purpose machine needle. My favorite needles are Schmetz needles in size 70/10.

I think buttons would be marvelous! I have tons of wooden buttons with prints on them that I've been looking for creative uses for...clocks, mandala, Eiffel towers, etc. Also, I think I'll print my labels and laminate them with the pouch for what I want to store in them. LOL Just sewing the edges is about the limit of my sewing machine skillz. 😉
