I have no business starting a new project 😆 but I like the idea of just making dots. Thank-you Jeri for your inspiration! 💛🧡❤️

You could embellish a jacket or vest with the dots. Or you could make a patchwork jacket or vest out of the squares.

Hi Jeri, bless you.Im not a sewer, more of a junk journaler, but intrigued by your dotty art. Firstly I wanted to say I totally empathise with you about being affected by noise. It is such a noisy world. I’m in the uk and have neighbours that seem to be obsessed by noisily mowing lawns and jet washing their cars, I’m surprised the cars have any paint left on them. Thank you for sharing your art, very inspiring. X.

Some are doing the dots in paper, I'll have to do that too and I will share in a video! 💜 If I go into the main part of the house, I can't hear a thing but I love looking out the window in the sun porch. Check out my Tiny House Tour! 💜

I had a whole thing typed out and it got lost. i don't even have a leaf blower to distract me. [ I think I just shouldn't try to multitask any more]. It was chattier than this... :) :) You make friends here with your extra wonderful graceful ways and stories. The dot assembly process isn't my favorite part but my finished first one makes me so happy, all the prep is worth it! Yes...we would love to see your bag!! the framed one is elegant and the others truly homey and fun. Special. Thanks for here and for FB.

I saw your heart, and I looked up the web site, it's wonderful! How lucky you are! You could make a heart and put a dot in the center of it! We could start a movement! Someone in the FB group called the dots a "Dottie" Uh oh... my brain is working on overload!!!! Ha! ❤️

Jeri I loved the black mat around the dots but when you put the brown frame around it didn't look as good. I suggest you keep the black mat and add a simple narrow black frame to it. This is meant as a positive critique. Your dots are fabulous and catching! ❤

Watched the video again. Nice picture. So elegant. Is there a way to tell the difference between cotton and a polyester cotton blend? I’m trying to figure out which old fabric I can use for the dot squares.

@JeriBellini 2 ай бұрын

Yes, use a lighter and burn it, do it over the sink just in case things go south. Cotton after it's burned will have a soft edge, anything with poly will get crunchy after it's burned. ❤️

You can mix various fabrics in a project like this if it’s for display purposes only and will not be washed. Just a suggestion!

Hi Jerry. I have stitched a few squares & 1 dot (circle). Ugh, it was tedious. I'm sure it will get easier, but did I understand you to say you don't turn under the circles made from t-shirt fabric? That sounds much easier to me. Thanks for clarifying!

@JeriBellini 2 ай бұрын

Right, I did not, I just gut them out and stitched them down. You can also just stitch down raw edge circles, they will not fray badly, since most of them are on the bias anyhow. Plus who doesn't love a raw edge??? LOL 💜💜💜
