1/12th Scale Single Bed Tutorial - Part Three - Crocheted Throw & Cushion

[@kathyjohnston4337]

Thank You so much for all your creative sharing and fun ideas!!! I am crocheting right along with you and it’s like having you on zoom with me. You make everything so much fun. I currently live in Washington state in the United States and can’t tell you how excited I am to create my first dollhouse. I’m starting small doing the crocheting first because I have materials already and then I will move along to bigger things and putting things together. Your tutorials are absolutely fabulous. Thank you thank you thank you, did I say thank you cause I meant THANK YOU!!! great big bunches of hugs and lots of love, Kathleen Johnston

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much Kathleen. I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos and feel excited about creating your first dollhouse. I wish you many, many happy hours of miniaturing, and I'll be right there with you! :)

[@helengibson8196]

My goodness! You are so clever. Thank you for sharing this with us. I will definitely give this a try. My nana used to be able to crochet fine doilies but I've never really tried. I will definitely give this a try. 🌷Thank you 🌷

[@MarinaMiladinov]

Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial! You explain everything so well ❤ Tomorrow I am starting Part III 🎉

[@barbaraproscia3275]

Would love to see you do a video on your Lilly pond Afghan 🤗

[@carolynmcginn7772]

Thank you so much Julie. I love the way you explain the steps....it is so helpful and you have such a calming voice. Crochet and knitting in miniature is one of the things I like to do, and after watching this video you have inspired me to do another bed throw.

[@JulieWarren]

Thanks Carolyn, I'm so glad you're going to have a go at this one. Your bits and pieces are on their way to me now! xx

[@christinenalle8810]

You are absolutely Wonderful ! One can hear the calm confidence and encouragement in your voice. You give us a “I never doubted that you could do this!” In your voice without saying it in words. I would never have even tried this pattern in “Big-people” size but now I can do it! I was first challenged to look at trying 1:12th after finding a doll made from a chicken wishbone at a country yard sale. It has a long dress down to the 2 wishbone feet and even a bonnet on it’s upper wishbone head. She has crocheted arms. A bag in her hand, and ruffles made like your flower petals around the bonnet and dress. It’s crocheted in sewing thread in a now faded grey- blue. Grandmother had no money but she had more than enough love for her granddaughter to make up for it ! I am in North West Ohio, USA.

Your voice is so calm and lovely. Also, love your tutorials!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much Ilia.

[@tinynina76]

Excellent series on making the bedding! Wonderful tips. Thank you so much.

[@JulieWarren]

You are so welcome!

[@billiedavis8755]

I don't think I could ever do the 1/12th scale as my eyes aren't that good anymore, but the real life size I might attempt. It looks so complicated when finished, but when you break it down to the smallest sections, it gives me inspiration! I truly enjoy listening to you explain each step and watching your videos. I would have to improvise on a few things, but that's the beauty of hand-crafted items, you always have options to put your own stamp/style on them. Thank you for being so thorough!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Billie. I do hope you'll enjoy making the blanket, whether in full size or miniature! I find it helps to work in a really good light when doing miniature crochet.

[@susanjane2498]

You make it look so easy! It all turned out very beautiful! Thank you for showing how to do it.

[@JulieWarren]

Thanks Susan. :)

[@mythdemeanor5268]

Unbelievable!! Great job!!

[@julieflei]

Love it!

[@helenburgess8839]

Working on this pattern for a full bed afghan. Not sure of size yet but had to try. I also just read my last post didn't realize the throw I made and finished, I am very happy with the results. I just wanted to say before I get off track YOUR tutorials are great, easy to follow and I love the way you stop and show each step. Thank you

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much Helen. I love the little flower design squares, they look lovely on a double bed, too. :)

[@chabeyline]

I truly enjoy your tutorial and your pleasant voice. This tutorial is amazing, you go slow and explained very well. Greeting from Los Angeles, California.

[@judysparks1132]

Wow! Stunning work ❤

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much. xx

[@barbaracarter4658]

Another beautiful lite afghan an pillow. I so enjoyed crocheting your last afghan.

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Barbara, I hope you'll have a go at this one too.

[@Foxiepawstotti]

I am really enjoying this. I can crochet but I am fairly basic. I think it's really helpful that you did it in the bigger scale to show because I like to practice things so that I know exactly which stitches I am using before attempting it with finer thread on a smaller hook. I think you have shown that it isn't really difficult, it's just a matter of practice and finally using the smallest hook you feel comfortable with. Luckily I do much of my miniatures in 1/6 so I won't have to find out exactly how bad my eyesight has become lol! Thanks again, my 1/6 dioramas will look so much better for this.

[@JulieWarren]

It really does help to learn the pattern in full size and then work down the hook sizes. For 1/6, you can use a slightly thicker thread, which helps too.

[@Foxiepawstotti]

I am slowly working my way down hook sizes and I just managed the flower and leaves on a 1mm hook (size 1..the one after. 75 which is still beyond me, I did get lost in the looks at the back though when I got around to where the leaves were doing the surround...never mind I am getting there and you're such a great teacher!

[@Christine-777]

Your miniature afghan throw is lovely! Thank you for the inspiration. I hope to make one in 1:12th scale (my collection) and in 1:6th (for a Barbie collection I am compiling for my youngest granddaughter). 💕 Thank you so very much for sharing your time and expertise with us all. Much love and appreciation from Texas, USA. 🥰💕

[@kellyholmes6396]

So beautiful 🤩 ❤

[@merielkosokar401]

Thank you for your channel and videos. I am wholly new to this world, and your tutorials give me the confidence to try projects. Your instruction makes it all seem that, yes, I can do this! And your work is so beautiful and inspiring.

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much Meriel, that really is lovely to hear. Welcome to the wonderful world of miniatures! :)

[@helenburgess8839]

I finally finished the blue, green and white afghan. I did it in purple, lavender and white ( I used .06 hook and 80 thread) I still have to sew my squares together but am happy with the end result. I am now making a bunch of centers for the flower afghan in a variety of colors. I am using .075 hook and 80 thread when I feel happy with my centers will move on to the petals and finish one. Then I will try with my .06 hook. I'm self taught and I am having a ball just ordered 5 or 6 threads from your Etsy shop. May get .05 next not brave enough yet. LOVE YOUR TUTORIALS.

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much Helen. It's a good idea to move down the hook sizes once you're happy with the process.

[@helenburgess8839]

@@JulieWarren Thread got here today. Now to pick a color scheme and moving on to my .06 hook. Will post on Facebook when I finish it. Wish me luck

[@aliciadovebridenbaugh1198]

I have a interesting idea to help with glue drying up a hair dryer and a thick dish towel and that should help with the drying time.

[@JulieWarren]

Thanks for the tip. :)

[@mulle3574]

Really cute with the extra little leaf pattern

[@JulieWarren]

Thanks Linda, the little leaves can be done all the way around too for a different look.

[@susanpizzio9320]

Really loved this tutorial would love more like it!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Susan.

[@bonniessoles1906]

You are a wonderful teacher... very well explained. Thank you I have been wondering what was used to crochet one of these. Thanks so much :)

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Bonnies, that's so lovely to hear. I hope you enjoy having a go. :)

[@MossyMozart]

A beautiful bedding set. It would even be so for a full-size room. However, I was watching why you glued everything together? It would be more fun to change things up with the seasons or to wash the little bedding when it gets dirty.

[@JulieWarren]

If you don’t want to glue your bedding down you don’t have to. I’m just showing you how I do it. I don’t dress the rooms for different seasons and I’m not sure what you mean about it getting dirty - it’s not going to be slept in! 😂

[@shawngatto6674]

Very helpful instructions. But once glued to bed it can’t be replaced. Is it necessary to clue to wood. Don’t want to damage my miniature bed

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you. You don't have to glue it to the bed, that's just how I do it as once made, I won't be changing the bedding in future.

[@alexandraferia7954]

Wonderful work, Julie. Congratulations! (Allow me to make a suggestion... To make the corners use the point of the needle and push it slowly until you can get it square. It works! 😉)

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Alexandra. I do actually use the needle-corner trick, but thank you anyway.

[@alexandraferia7954]

Julie Warren I apologize! I believe the best way to learn it's each other, specially foi me because I'm a left-hand person and certain things I've to watch carefully to may reproduce. Anyway, I'll be waiting for another EXCELLENT work from you! XOXOX

[@JulieWarren]

No need to apologize, I totally agree. Even having been a miniaturist for twenty years, I'm learning new things every day. :)

I did find I had to put my stuffing inside a tiny rectangle of bandage gauze as my stuffing kept poking through. Usual polyester stuffing here was too course on it’s own.

I bet you could! I have big fingers, too! :)

@@JulieWarren okay I shall give it a try. Such beautiful delicate work you do. I am in tune with the precision of the work too.

[@ritamanzo9724]

Hello Julie from USA. Have a question. On part one I didn't see how you cut the frame of the bed and the measurements of the conners to fit the head bored. Could you collaborate on this please thank you! Love your work!!

[@JulieWarren]

Hi Rita, I cut all of the pieces using my swann morton craft knife. The corners to fit the frame are formed when you glue the third strip to the top of the frame. Hope that helps.

[@ritamanzo9724]

Thank you so much for replying so kind of you! Yes, its helps a lot. Thank you again.. 😊 Have a blessed day! Stay safe...

I had seen a Crochet hook awhile ago that had a light on it, Now I do not remember where I had seen it probably at Michael's craft store (I am in Vancouver, BC Canada.) So my question is have you seen these and if you have do you know if they come in different sizes? Your work is just astounding and completely inspirational 🙌

[@JulieWarren]

I have never seen those, but that would be a great tool to have! I shall ask my crochet cotton supplier if they are able to source them. :)

[@carolreese5557]

Love watching this, but I know I've absolutely no chance of being able to make a crocheted throw! I will, however, go to bed with "pull the wool through" sending me off to sleep 😴🛌 xxx

[@JulieWarren]

I'm glad you enjoyed watching. Sleep well. :)

Amei adoro crochê. 👏👏👏👍👍👍❤❤❤

[@notmygovernmentname3942]

Julie I’m such a bum I went right over to your Etsy shop hoping to find the bed and all the linens including this throw. I was so disappointed to not find them. I don’t know that I have the skills to recreate this lovely throw. Will it be for sale at any time in the future? Thanks! -Chrissie 😀💫

[@JulieWarren]

Hi, I'm afraid the bed has sold. At the moment, I don't have any more in stock, but do keep an eye out on my Etsy shop, as I will be adding more in future.
