Dawn and Peter another fun informative video. I watch for y’all to release a new video. Love you two. Peter do not change the red thread it adds so much to the piece. I will be adding that touch to my pieces. Have a blessed day everyone!

Thanks so much

Thank you for your tutorial. The sew-tight magnets are a game changer- no more death grip needed by my poor hands! Plus the tip on using the magnifying lamp. And using a milliner’s needle; the needle entering the fabric at 90 degrees; and permission to make my stitches a bit further apart! Wonderful practical advice!

Your welcome!

Dawn…fabulous tutorial. Would you consider doing a tutorial on how to attach the diamond shape to the hexagons please!?!

Dawn…can you please give me the name of the magnifying light you used in this video. It’s just what I’ve been looking for after a recent diagnosis of macular degeneration. I’m not ready to give my sewing up yet. Does your store carry this light? Do you ship? I’m in NY state…all the way north on the Canadian border. thank You in advance for your reply.

You make it so clear , I have been unsure about how to do the stitches and gluing. Time to give it a try!

Do you have tips for protecting skin? I use a thimble but have dry skin .. my hands, nails and cuticles take a bit of a beating … Help, please!

The center is a pentagon - 5 sides. A hexagon has 6 sides! The side of a hexie measures half the point to point through the center - 1” side is 2” from point to point! And so on! I’ve been working on a 3/4” hexie project for years😁😁😁. And thanks for the hint about the 80wt - it’s more difficult to find where I live but I do have a shop about 50 miles away that does have it.

Thanks for the info!

I like to put my broken pins and needles in an M&M tube with a flip top lid. I love the fun banter with the camera 🎥 (video) man!

That's a great tip!

That was a great lesson. I needed to make sure I was doing it right. I really enjoy paper piecing. It's a great project for the winter. Thank you.

Hello!!

I enjoy English paper piecing. Those new patterns look like fun. Can’t wait to see you make your bowls. I’ll have to maybe get the pattern and make one with you guys.

If I ever want to venture into EPP I know where to go for a tutorial! You make it look easy, Dawn! I did not knot/nod off during the video. 😂 Looking forward to seeing the bowl tutorial with Dawn and Peter!

Love the video & am excited to see bowl demo.. bought the kit quite awhile ago and just dug it out. Are the paper pieces easy to get out?

Yes they are!

The diamond shape is a rhombus.

Great video on this topic. How do you remove the paper?

Just lift up the edge of the fabric and peel the paper out.

@@alwaysinstitches5388 Sounds simple enough. I have not yet ventured into EPP. :)

The 5 sided piece is a pentagon, not a hexie/hexagon (which has 6 sides)

Video close ups are to blurred

The big hexy is not a hexy ,it calls pentagon…hexys have 6 points,pentagon 5🎉😊

Thank you!

Lick your finger and the thimble will stay on your finger until you take it off.

Video kinda makes me dizzy. In and out.

This is the only video I have watched from you that I didn’t enjoy. So many things stated as fact that are just personal choice. There was nothing wrong with Peters’s stitches. Knicker knot!
