As a seamstress I started carrying a personalized container in the glove compartment. Once they discovered I sew a few co workers have commisioned me for jacket zipper replacement, minor alterations, even quilt making . What they don’t know, is that I pray for them during the entire project. 😁👏🏻

I love your Tips!!! I like to have needle threader with me. Perhaps it is good to put your Adress in there, so you have a Chance to get your Bag back If some one finds it.good afternoon

For anyone looking for a roll up bag/case like Karen's I just realized (after searching for "rollup pencil cases" for the past 10 months to no avail) that it might be a rollup makeup bag instead or at least I'm finding a lot more "rollup makeup bags" that look like hers on amazon, ebay, aliexpress, etc. than when I've tried to search for "rollup pencil case". I just got a similar one for myself so that maybe I can start with the hexies soon too!

I’d love to see a video of how you pulled your thread through those snaps and how you keep it inside your zipper pouch for the the go bags. Thanks for all your videos!

I've read that KZfaq likes lots of comments too! I would love to see a tutorial on English Paper Piecing. I just did my 1st FPP quilt and loved it. I also used you technique for binding a quilt...thanks!!

This video couldn’t have come at a better time. In a couple of months, God willing, I will have to have a stay in hospital in isolation for a few weeks. I set to make myself a bag to carry my hand quilting in (Japanese QAYG squares) It’s a project, pattern byAnnie and I was thinking it was too small. Now I’m thinking maybe its too big. After watching your video I shall certainly test it out prior to using.I don’t want thread, needles etc bouncing around a hospital room. I’ve already been thinking of some modifications but I can see a few more coming on. Thanks

I like to wind thread from almost empty spools onto bobbins to carry in my sewing kit esp. for EPP.

@andreaschoeny993 2 жыл бұрын

OMG the thread coming out of the snaps just blew my mind. My jaw literally dropped.

@monikadonnelly7105 2 жыл бұрын

Lady, you are so smart! The snap idea for dispensing thread.....mind blown. Love all your videos.

@luannnollinger6005 2 жыл бұрын

For pins and needles,. I use magnets ( those pizza/business card magnets for the refrig are small and can be cut to size) ..use 2 and sandwich the pins and needles in between.

Hi Karen! I’m a baby sewist, and I love your videos. I especially loved your story about your quilt in the blue bag, it gave me tears. I wish I lived near you because I would want to hang out with you to sew and have wonderful conversation. You are an amazing and inspirational woman. Thank you for teaching all of us! Hugs- Lin❤️

Thanks Karen. I love this idea!! I'm needy on a larger scale. LOL I had family members in and out of hospital and medical tests. I use to sit around sighing because I could be doing SOMETHING while waiting, so now I have a bag....I call it my ditty bag. Inside it has pockets-- I keep a fabric ornament-Styrofoam ball or egg, fabric or ribbon cut to size, pins--they are in a paper roll--I think they are called "ticket pins" from the good ole days. Because the pins are in a roll I can tear off a couple of hundred and they are secure in the paper. I also have small snips and thimble. But in my bag I also carry my spare phone charger, my MP3 player with a book, water, and snack. I also have another bag with knitting that has the above, also. I just throw in my wallet on the way out the door and I'm good to go. Makes the time go by and I feel productive.

I've become obsessed with sashiko/kantha type quilting. Big thread, big needle, and quilting in straight(ish) long lines. I am currently working on a bedsized quilt that I am doing in thirds -- that whole long piece gets rolled up tidily and clipped with those awesome clips just to the spot I'm working. It folds into my big soft purse, and I carry a little needle kit and with scissors clipped to it. (sometimes I use a carabiner clip and clip the scissors to my clothes too.) Was able to finish a quilt for Christmas by doing 20 minutes on the bus every morning.

Yes please to a video on EPP. I'd like to see how you use the hexie cutter. I started sewing and quilting during lockdown, but because machine grown quilts seem to grow very quickly it made me wonder what everyone does with their finished quilts? I saw a video on EPP and was hooked. I've been making it for about 4 months now and it's still only 24" x 48" approx. My hexies are all cut by hand and none of the sides are the same so I'd really like to see your hexie cutter in action and to know the make of it please. Thank you

A tutorial on English Paper Piecing from you would make my day! You explain steps clearly and logically with an easy to follow cadence. I appreciate your videos and you. Thank you for the time, effort and knowledge you impart to us all. Have a blessed day.

Good morning everyone. I have just been sewing-on-the-go...my first road trip in forever. My nephew was married on the weekend in Montreal. It was a lovely time with family who we had not seen in over two years. So the video is a bit late...but I can definitely vouch for how a good sewing-on-the-go-kit can fill those dead moments when you are waiting for stuff to happened. So grab your coffee and enjoy.

Appropriately enough, I watched this while waiting for my cousin at the airport. I didn’t have a sewing project with me, but watching your videos is just as beneficial.

Yes, do a segment on paper piecing hexes, especially sewing them together! I used to cut my own until I found them online, precut in various sized, not jus 1/2 inch. I need help stitching them together more smoothly.
