Great tutorial and an awesome explanation of napkins.! What if you take the ruler under the fabric and fold it back on itself to expose the batting? Before you cut off placemats if you expose the batting and cut it very close to the stitch line you don't have as much fussing to get it squared. Just a thought and thinking out loud. Thank you Donna for all you do

Ma'am, I know this video is a number of years old, however, it is new to me and I must say I have never been so appreciative of a DIY KZfaq video. I have watched several dozen DIY placemat videos and they were unnecessarily complex, that left me exhausted and defeated before even trying!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge in an understandable way that left me motivated to begin! I look forward to viewing more of your videos. Sincerely, Jessica

Just finished making some placemats and they were so easy. I wish I had your sewing precision though (and your quilting machine). I still struggle to sew a perfectly straight line but my relatives I made them for don't seem to care. I also made some batik ones with a fairy silhouette embroidered on them. My great nieces loved them.

You are an excellent instructor with your easy to follow instructions for the project. I wish I could visit Jordan Fabrics, but I am across the country in Massachusetts. Thank you for helping me to become interested in sewing again! I am planning on giving my family placemats and napkins for Christmas. This has also been great therapy to be able to distract my mind during these very upsetting times in our world! Thank you again for your great video!!

Great video!! I love when you place the camera close enough for a "beginner", like myself to see and understand the measurements on the machine, and rolled edges on the napkins. I am going to call my friends to see what mixed colors they adore, but not tell them it's for their gifts. It will be a surprise. Then I'm going to buy the fabric, and get started on the placemat and napkin sets for them this year. Thank you for sharing this video!

@suebean3873 5 жыл бұрын

Such good tips. I never thought of putting the openings on the side that doesn’t stretch or has no give. Also, marking your machine with a sharpie and then covering it with clear tape. I’ve done it in the past but with a piece of tape but never covered it and so they curl after a few hours. You’re so easy to listen to and I find that everything you mention or say is an important tip, you’re not just rambling on about nothing. Thank you so much. I’ve been sewing for a long time and happy and proud to say that I am still learning from you and people like professionals like you! Many thanks! (Sue B, from Oshawa Ontario Canada)

Brilliant, simply brilliant! You showed us step by step how to choose fabric and the batting, showed the cutting and set up of the machine, the actual stitching and finger pressing, etc. Too many people assume that others know what the person doing the demonstration knows and don't show enough detail. Your video and explanations were incredibly clear. My only regret is that I never purchased a really good sewing machine that gave me good results all the time.
