Pam, do you realize you're just several steps away from quilting!? 😌Way to go!!!!! 👏🏾

[@karenlulay]

I like this idea. Very quick and you can make each one work in different journals. Missed Holly today.....give Sunny a big hug.💜💙💚🧡❤💛🐕🦜

[@morganjennings3164]

[@denorahmicale5581]

Gotta say this.....when I’m having a bad day or feel sad I just watch one of your videos and you always make me smile. Thank you for a great attitude...and great ideas for use crafters. 💜

[@susanboyter9034]

I like the wiggle in the zig zag thingy. Hahaha priceless

How lovely Pam very pretty and different love your inspiration as always tfs hugs from London xx

[@studio74usa]

Wow!!! Another win in the paper world thanks to Pam! You are awesome. Always love your videos. I can't wait to do some of these. You could get the bases done too and then take your goodie box to TV room. Always looking for something I can do while watching TV with the hubby. Tfs!! Please keep them coming. 💙💜😉

Hi Pam!❤️🤗🌻 Love this idea for mass making bookmarks/belly bands!! Thank you for sharing and have a great weekend!!❤️🌻🤗

Great ideas! Your energy is contagious!

Good sunny morning to you Sadie!!! :)

Sew simple, but effective....cute!...sew chipper this morning...still trying to wake up to work in the gardens...😻

[@greeneyedldy50]

Love the leaf theme of the belly band

[@vickiedavis7309]

So cute!!

[@Zandain]

On a 24hr shift today...watching you Pam, is such a great way to make my night go by...these belly bands are fun! Thanks Pam - love from Denmark 🌸💕

[@ThePaperOutpost]

A 24 hour shift!! You deserve some play time after that :) Ok, maybe some sleep time, then some play time :) Have a great shift! :) Thanks for being here :)

[@kathrynhelm4176]

Lots of possibilities come out of this one. 👍🥰❤️

[@patriciaruppert201]

Good morning Pam. Yay it is Friday and you gave us another fun way to make belly bands or bookmarks. Hope your weekend is fantabulous. Big hugs from Wisconsin. ❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Thank you Patricia! Its always my pleasure to spend time with you! :)

[@bettyswinford5886]

Hi Pam,you could save a ton of thread if you turn your paper at the end of the row instead of sewing off and cutting the thread.Thank you for great ideas.Love watching you.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Great idea!!

[@angelathoma-dogwoodpaperarts]

What a great idea! Love how quick this is and how beautiful they are. Excellent way to "mass" make pockets, tucks and belly bands.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Glad you like it!

[@ClaudiaMiller]

Always fun watching your videos! Love how you give viewers permission to just let everything flow! On days when I don't have any set thing I want to do, I experiment with my stamps. Trying to make new patterns, overlapping them. Then I can tear them off later and use in a project.

[@rlturnerdesigns]

What I like about your projects is that they fairly easy but highly effective. I have plenty of fabric strips. Will be trying this

[@ThePaperOutpost]

So happy to hear this!

[@crab3696]

Great idea.. I might mix fabric with paper for mine so its different textures. Thanks Pam!

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Love your idea! TFS! :)

[@karenhankerson330]

At least he didn't bring you a snake. 🤗😎👍

[@ThePaperOutpost]

You are right, I am forever grateful! :)

[@CreatedByMechele]

Easy and fun. I love it. 💜

[@juneribbons5196]

I love them. Maybe cover one with flowered lace or bling ribbon. I think that would be very pretty

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Definitely!!

[@sybilmccullers6291]

I love the fabric on bookmarks idea. I made a bunch of the other ones that you made on junk mail. Liked them so much I cut out 30 of the junk mail cards to glue the fabric on and then sew. Now that you have shown this idea I may have to hang on to those for another project and do the 30 of them the fast way. I will be making them for our sewing ministry at church and I know they will love them.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

I love hearing your story Sybil!!:) TFS! :)

[@romara879]

I learned to sew in high school, and my grandmother was a seamstress. I've dabbled in sewing over the years, but prefer working with paper. Never would have thought of sewing on paper! But I love how it combines the old and new, so to speak... I look forward to adding sewing to my paper crafting! Thanks for the inspiration 😇

[@AurorasArtWorld]

That's so easy!! 💖 Thank you, Pam!!

[@georgettemartinez9321]

très jolie très bonne idée tous le monde peut le faire merci pour cette idée a bientot

Wow Pam I can't believe how fast these went together this is a awesome project and I can see me sitting and making buckets of them. Thanks for another cool project, hope you have a beautiful weekend. Take care!

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Thank you! You too!

[@donnadegale-kalloo5926]

Always showing us something great and fun to make. Thank you. Love your videos.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Thanks for watching!

[@cty5498]

Great way to use up those scraps! Very much like strip quilting. Shake things up by adding some strip diagonally over top and then sew.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Oh very cool idea! TFS! :)

[@loisfinch1569]

Hi from PA! Love this! Anything to get done faster. I believe we r related somewhere down the monkey tree lol. Thinking of cutting crooked half circles in different sizes and layering them on a page? Same with a type of graduated cover like u did with the torn pages on one journal. oh so many ideas! We have a wedding rehearsal today for one of our sons and wedding tomorrow so no crafting till Sunday maybe. Chomping at the bit to try this idea and many more. You and your zoo have a great day! Your the bomb! Hugs

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Hi Lois! I am so happy for you on all fronts! :)

[@elainet5870]

Great idea to do a page at once!!!! 😃😃😃

Biggest hugs JoBeth! :)

[@jkelley431]

I love this idea! New to me. 😀. I enjoy you so much!

[@Melinda-S]

Such a cool trick! I guess I'm going to have to go digging into the basement to find my scraps. This would be so much easier If I just set up my craft room instead of doing it in my office area. *lol* I've got snow on the ground if you want to visit Minnesota for some cooler weather.

Great idea I'm in the Sewing mood I've been making your other doo dads. I'm sewing so much now but no clothes hard to wear a belly band... Lol

[@ThePaperOutpost]

LOL :)

[@jaidehazelwood7962]

These look fun to make! I love how your confidence has grown as you display your sewing skills, which have improved since I first started watching your channel. You are such an inspiring, enthusiastic crafter! 💜💜💜

I enjoy your videos and you're a nut in the best way!

Great idea AGAIN. You reminded me of the time I had to pull a butterfly out of one of my dogs mouth. It survived and flew away. I felt so good about it. 🤣

Wow! Great save!

@@barbaramorck2933 thank you so.much Barbara, never heard that before.over here in Australia, I didn't hear Pam.say the g but don't matter I still hadn't heard that expression. We would call.that a tiny bug or flying insect lol

[@barbaramorck2933]

Alanna -- g is silent in gnat -- just like k in know. English is such a funny language. I haven't heard 'bajeepers' since I was a child. It's good to bring back some of these old words. Much better than some that we hear in today's world. Stay safe & well -- and carry on with 'reckless abandon!'

Oh you will soon be going down the fabric rabbit hole and sewing your heart out without the paper. Lol. I see a quilt top happening soon with you

Is your unifying element a panty leg? I've saved a lot of waistbands and leg edgings, but who knew they could turn out so cute! (If that's what it is.) Or is it selvedge?
