Hi Julia - The perfect project for Spring. Love your stamping and appliqué on your pillow and journal cover. Dragonflies are really pretty and so are the little flowers. It all looks so fun and whimsical. Love both of them! Hope you are basking in the sun. It’s actually been a little warmer here this week. I need to play with my Arteza pencils and make something Springy! Have fun in the sun! Hugs! 💕☀️🌸🌼🎨

Hi, I heard you are getting warmer weather from my daughter. Yeah!! The desert has gotten a fair amount of rain this year and the cactus and other plants are ready to bloom. It is a different kind of beautiful! Thanks for watching and commenting , Hugs, Julia

Turned out great, Julia--so cute! I love it when you make videos using your Inktense blocks. Also love how you "traveled" during free-motion stitching between the Dragon Fly and the flower! What a great idea.

I love using the Inktense! I wish they were more affordable. I purchased my set a few years ago and got it on sale. Other products also work. Happy creating, Julia

I'm a new subbie. I just found your channel last night. I watched your videos for hours. Loving your channel. I like to sew, make junk journals, crochet, do embroidery & bead embroidery, and most anything using BEADS! And I'm interested in learning to do snippet rolls & doing wet & needle felting. Seems like your channel is all my interests. Love the jeans bag. So unique and so cute. Love your work & style. And that you pay attention to details. Your projects are beautiful. I'm excited to be following your channel now. Thx for so many GREAT videos. You are a great teacher. That's good, for things like ZIPPERS & sewing. Glad to be here. Austin,TX USA

Hi Rhonda, I remember the tailored jacket days. I majored in textiles at my University and we had a tailoring class. I'm afraid I didn't do very well! The techniques are great to know- good for you! I'm glad the video has kicked your creative side into gear! Thanks for watching, Julia

Oh my gosh, this is so cute! I just ordered some flower and butterfly dies for the Bigshot I never use. When they arrive, I want to see if I can make this. I have made the ruffle with the Inktense before from another one of your videos and it’s super fun. I have rainbow colored ruffles, but will now need to make green. Thanks so much for this. I can’t wait to try this!

Hi Robin, I forgot all about making the ruffled muslin. I haven't made any for awhile. It works great to add unique dimension to a project. I hope you give it a try. Hugs, Julia

Any machine that will allow the feed dogs to drop. Mine is a singer from the 50s.

Hi, Most sewing machines are capable of free motion stitching. If you have a sewing machine dealer or repair person, they can help you. It is important to have the correct foot. Thanks so much for watching, I hope you give it a try. Julia

@TRYHEART67 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks so much Julia and Joan for the info! I have a Singer too it’s maybe 5 years old basic machine. I’ll ask the repair shop if they can get me the free motion foot for my machine! 💕💕💕vicki
