I would like to learn to sew a belly warmer also known as kidney warmer. Some wrap around and are secured in some way others are like a tube of stretchy material but I can't figure out how to prevent them from folding over or slipping down. Have you ever made one?

Welcome! Yes, the tutorial for this blouse is on my channel - just go to the video tab and take a look :)

[@fightagainstcorona291]

Love this video .

[@Queenread82]

Hey I have an idea for you - I saw a little tote with marker pockets. The front pocket was seamed for sticking markers into, nice and neat. I thought it would be fun to put a coloring book or drawing pad in the tote and slotting markers in - fun gift! Could be a grown up idea too.

[@Queenread82]

Oh golly you could put one of those cute little journals inside!

[@kathysmigen3927]

I love your ideas and how helpful your videos are. Just a question-where did you get your long tailor scissors? I want them!😀

[@ThoughtfulCreativity]

It was a gift from mu husband 2-3 Christmases ago. He got them on Amazon, for like 20-30$, came in a set with smaller snips and little scissors. :)

[@AxllsFly]

[@ThoughtfulCreativity]

Hello there, Becca, this particular free pattern is linked in the description of this video :)

[@beccaflynn4740]

@@ThoughtfulCreativity, unfortunately nothing pulls up when I click the link. It brings me to a page and says that I do not have any sewing guides. I have tried several times… maybe I have to do it from a computer? Maybe I can’t access it on my phone or tablet.

[@ThoughtfulCreativity]

I see... hmmm... maybe the original website deleted it. Ugh, that sucks! So sorry about that, let me see if I have these files saved on my PC and if I do I will upload them to google drive, which you have access to as a part of your Membership. I will post an update about this on my community tab for Members, when I have uploaded the files if I have them! again, so sorry about that!

Leslie, I have multiple jacket videos on the channel - you can start there and then just ad a lapel to it, super easy :) I know you can do it! :)

[@kindredinspirit]

You have the pattern for the black floral headband shown on the card? I don’t much wear the bow head bands do t work well in me. I can’t tell but it looks like you added another top stitch on the card bonded margin area that’s decorative type of zig zag?

Can i ask you where you bought the muslin for drapping?

Absolutely :) I get mine in a few different places, last time I got mine on super sale when I was getting fabric dye from Dharma Trading. I like their muslin. You can also find some at Joann's, and on Mood Fabric.

[@ellietran9964]

Thanks a lot! By the way, will you make any drapping tutorial in the future? 😋

[@ThoughtfulCreativity]

@@ellietran9964 I already have :) just go to my channel and take a look at the videos. They don't always say "draping" in the title, first one to take a look would be a video about recreating Kate's Jubilee dress.

From my Mom: she makes things because she is CHEAP

That's an unfortunate way of looking at things. Handmade gifts are made thoughtfully and and with love. Besides sewing is expensive...

[@babblesp1367]

@@Cecibug1 it used to be cheaper to see your own things, which could be why she said that. That’s not the case anymore. Fabric, and everything else, is expensive now.
