Becky the brushes are great for fluffiing the finger.

This is an excellent tutorial for doing fringe. I've saved it to be able to reference again in the future.🧵

[@kathyclayton4318]

Love this ornament. I love making stuff on my Brother Dream Machine! So fun to watch it come together.

[@mgs783]

That was fun to watch❣️. Your clear close ups when cutting the jump stitches was an excellent visual timing to your explanation ~

[@lindaruiz2422]

That is so cute! Can't wait to see all 12.

[@leticia-rl7yj]

I used the water soluble thread in my machine for the thread fringe instead of cutting. It was easier with a wet sponge go over that thread and dissolve it. Especially when I did the Christmas tree 🎄 Thank you for sharing 😊 you give wonderful tutorials.

[@brendatomlinson1938]

I sure did learn alot from this video. The fringe is so cute and Thank You for showing us how to get the thread break that is inside the machine.

[@anita828]

Thank you for the tutorial. The fringe is a neat thing to know how to do. I look forward to all of your tutorials. I think I have looked at every one of them. Please keep them coming. You are a wonderful teacher.

[@grams5580461]

Love this tutorial. I am going to do the other ornaments and one of them uses the fringe. Thank you so much for showing how it's done.

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Glad it was helpful!

[@paulabeaudry8596]

Just beautiful

WAY TO GO HUGS FROM PAM KEEP THE VIDEO COMING

[@joycemccoig1160]

I took a class at Sew Special where we used wash away thread in the bobbin when we stitched satin stitches to make a Santa's beard. We used regular thread to stitch the tack down row. Then when all the rows were stitched, we wet the back and let the wash away thread dissolve. The result was lots of loops on the front that we fluffed into the beard shape.

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Thats a great technique! Who thinks of these things? 😆

[@2340ce]

Excellent Tutorial. Thank you for sharing.

[@beverlyjohnson8796]

Thank you for such a great video. I got my first embroidery machine for last Christmas and just now getting the courage together to it out of the box. I am going to make some of these ornaments for my craft fair. How much should I charge for the ornament? I’m glad I found your channel.

[@tammypopp4610]

I use my purple thing on the front side to lift the fringe after clipping the back

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Smart! Great tip!

[@dorenenagy564]

I love that!

[@karenraabis5296]

That is amazing! It threaded the needle and everything

[@susantimchack1358]

where do you purchase your wood hoops from? cute design

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Mine are 4" bamboo hoops from Amazon. I re-sized the outer stitches in Embrilliance to make the design fit. The design is from Kimberbell and there's a link in the Description Box to the CD. Thanks for watching! Here are the hoops: amzn.to/3c2RKtz Here's how to resize - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmKcgqyvhJpqZtU

[@2Peachcobler]

Thanks for the tutorial. I've never made fringe but I have done a rose. You had to cut the petals (top side) to have it fluff up. But you do have to be careful not to cut your fabric. Oops I did!

[@donnam1358]

There are brushes you can get at dollar tree or dollar general it's a pack of 3 in the tools department

[@cindymcfarland4686]

Does pulling the thread backwards through the machine mess with the tension discs or is it the lint factor that is a concern? Or something else? Just curious. I know you're not supposed to do it, just not 100% sure why. Thanks! Love all your videos!!!

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

I've been told that the shredded fibers of the thread may/will ball up inside the machine and cause issues if you pull it backwards. Have I done it? Oh yeah. Maybe I was lucky and nothing happened to me that I'm aware of, but unless you're comfortable taking the machine apart to open up the thread path, I don't advise it. That's a "better safe than sorry" in my book.

[@cindymcfarland4686]

@@PowerToolsWithThread Thanks! I 100% agree to play it safe.

Hi Becky!

Hi Ellen!! :-)

Becky if you don’t have fingernails use a tweezer as a fingernail.

[@shannonmargaretbrott7524]

Man that fringe doesnt like me....but I kicked it out of the park.... What is the next one that you will be doing?

[@donnam1358]

That was the fringe. One has plastic bristles the 2are metal. They look like a large tooth brush.
