You said that you’re going to get ripped in the comments, so let’s get this over with: rip, rip, rip. ‘Nuf said. Sweetheart, you just keep doing you; I love how you let it all hang out: your personality is off the charts and, if for nothing other than purely entertainment, I’ll keep coming back to your videos. Loved the content: it’s informative and spot-on. Keep rendering your honest opinions, continue being you, and remain fierce. Thank you for giving us your valuable time. And lighthearted entertainment. ;) Now, I’m off to the Famore’ site.

For the seam ripper, Yep. I do that. You use the ball point end under the seam and cut tf out of your fabric once and you never try again.

I have a feeling most of my videos are warnings based on past experience. I should just title them "please don't do this [insert stupid thing here] that I did 10 years ago"

I'm new to bag making but an experienced sewer. Curved blades on snips are very useful but I've found curved blade nail scissors work really well, retain their sharpness and are only a fraction of the price of the sewing ones I've seen in UK. 😁 I can't get on with rotary cutters despite having used scalpels over years for display work in my former job. I'd love some detailed tips on the techniques of holding them, pressure, cutting boards & brands. Better check I've not missed just missed that one!

Can you do a video on tips with a rotary cutter? I have one, but I find it hard to cut curves with it...even straight edges are difficult compared to my shears.

You are my go to info person for sewing related. Keep it up please and like another comment “what about pinking shears” ?
@fiercekittenz4 жыл бұрын
I have never successfully used pinking shears on bags. Too bulky :(

Great info! I have never heard of Famore. My favorite go to scissors are Kai. I do have Ginger snips too. I also have 3 sewing machines in my room, Janome M7, Janome HD9 and Juki DU1181N.

Great Videos. Just watched the hardware one too. I cannot find one on zippers (mentioned in your hardware video) so maybe you have not done one yet. I sure would like to see one. Thanks!

Thanks for the great overview. What would you recommend for Pinking Shears? I use them in bag making and mine are really stiff and crappy
@fiercekittenz4 жыл бұрын
Honestly? I have NEVER found a pair of pinking shears that I liked. Since I don't sew bags with exposed seams, I don't bother with the pinking shears. I use tailor's shears to trim down the bulk of seam allowances as a lot of bag patterns use 1/2".

Is there a preorder on the rotary blade? Do you use your fabric scissors to cut zipper tape? Awesome video
@fiercekittenz4 жыл бұрын
No preorders yet, but all I've been told is Famore will have them in the Fall. I'll make sure to let people know when it's available! For zipper tape, no, I use an older pair of scissors that I retired to cut zips.

@fiercekittenz4 жыл бұрын
I have a beginner's tutorial on how to make a simple tote where the pattern is made, but it may not be advanced enough as it's really just a rectangle. A video on how I make my patterns would actually be helpful so I'll add it to the list!!!

Great video! I cannot get the hang of a rotary cutter compared to scissors, especially on curves.. any tips? I have several tailor/fabric shears -- one from Ikea that I use for polyester, vinyl and laminates; and others from Wustoff/Henckels for cotton, wool and fine/silk/bamboo. (And one pair that I only use to cut sequined/paillette and fun fur. That stuff is hard on any blade!) My 'day job" is as a pastry chef (not much recently tho!) so I cleaned up at the Wustoff factory sale...
