  Gorgeous pinafore! I am feeling very inspired to make myself one too!! Also amazing time for a side seam pocket tutorial, as I was literally tackling sewing pockets while watching your video. Thanks.

  Is there a commercial pattern for the white square necked top you are wearing in the sewing part of this video?

  Ive never heard of the bleach test for fiber content. You can take a snip and set it on fire. Poly melts, with a hard black bead. Wool smells like burning hair, and smolders, doesn't burn well. Cotton has a fine ash and smells more like burning paper. Don't remember silk, but the info is out there somewhere. Love the cloak. Mom made me one in blue crushed velvet about 50 years ago. I still wear it.

  So random - did you go to the Eras tour in Milan, night 1? I feel like I saw you there but I wasn't sure and didn't want to bother you and say hi if it was you 😅

  I recognized the fabric from your Lizzy Bennet dress right away! That is such a great little serendipitous detail to go with your P&P cover embroidery. Diving into the cabbage patch for these small projects makes for a trip down memory lane every time you use them.

  I totally loved this video, such gorgeous little books. Amusingly, I recently also turned a little bit of practice embroidery into a needle book, I used pieces of foam sheet instead of hard card and that also worked really well.

  How did you attach the felt to the book? Did you just sew the ribbon at the top and the bottom so the pages can be pulled out of the book? They turned out great!

  This is perfect. I was just thinking that I need a different way to store my needles (because my nincompoop cat keeps trying to STEAL MINE off my current storage, which is a magnetic dish). AND I can use the covers as an embroidery sampler! Win win!

  As I have not yet developed the skill of hearing when my machine needle is worn down, I keep my machine needles on a strip of fabric with markings for type and for how much I used the needle already. When I take a needle from this I put in a glass headed needle as marker in the appropriate place for type and wear. When I'm done with the machine needle I put it back in place for type but a bit farther to the right as appropriate for how worn down it is now. Works really well!

  I store mine in small tubes. Each variety in its own tube . The ones I'm using are in a pincushion or in a magnetic case. And then I throw them out when they become dull. Sometimes I try sharpening them but I mostly work with fabrics that need extremely sharp needles . Needle books are very fun but I don't think they suit my process .I made a few as gifts with a felt piece to keep the needles and a pincushion, all in one case with a snap closure. I embroidered the outside of the cases.

  @bunhelsingslegacy354913 күн бұрын

  Very cute little craft! Though I think I'd rather make pockets for the plastic machine needle cases and only use the felt for ones that are used. And I keep my favourite hand sewing needle in a spot I marked on my travel pincushion (it's the size of a mason jar snap lid and has an elastic on the other side so I can wear it around my wrist or turn it pins-down and use a mason jar ring lid to screw it onto a jar containing my thread and thimble).

  It's such a cute dress. I started a mock up with old sheeting and liked it so much I just kept going with it. I found the instruction really confusing and harder than they needed to be. I constructed the front first, then the back, joined them with the straps encasing the top edges of each where they joined (raw edge to the armseye) then inserted the fully constructed sleeves and overlocked the raw edges. It was much easier.

  I own a needle book that my great-grandmother bought in Nice, France, in the 1920s. It's small, about two by three inches. It has a wooden cover with 'Nice' painted on it along with some swirls. Inside are four pages of flannel. She also bought a wooden sock egg at the same time.

  Very cute needle storing option! Maybe I just missed it but I didn't see how you attached the felt pages to the book. Is the ribbon holding them in place somehow? Can you explain how you did that?

• 
  @CatsCostumery12 күн бұрын

  The ribbon is holding them in place! You could also sew through them but I thought this way would make it easy to replace the felt pages when they get worn ☺️

  I’ve also heard that using flannel in a needle book was a way to help prevent rust on needles, at a time when homes tended to be more damp.
