Episode 99 - Join me as I make a zipped Macaron for jewellery or keepsakes

Hello and welcome. My name is Pene, short for Penelope and I live with my husband Pete on the S E coast of England. This episode is a little different to my usual chatter! I have been making macaron purses for a couple of years now and people really seem to like them. I had been asked to show how I make them and decided to film the process. I hope you like the finished result and it inspires you to have a go yourself. See you for my 100th episode next time!

Thank you Penny, that was a brilliant demonstration. You’re a terrific teacher & I enjoyed every minute of the video. Wishing Pete every good wish in his recovery and return to full health very soon.

Thanks Lynn, Fiddly but worth it I think. xx

That was very interesting. Your macarons look really sweet. They would be great for holding earrings too. Thanks for videoing this.

[@penelopeschinwag]

It's perfect for earring. x

[@susanwhitehead4295]

Thank you Penne for showing how to make the macaron. I'm going to order from Lisa to make one. I'm feeling inspired by you. XX

[@penelopeschinwag]

Oh great. I showed a friend how to make them and she is now on her 70th one! Be careful, the bug might bite!! Enjoy.

[@kristinvoss9857]

I wish I had the manual dexterity and patience to make these macarons. Adorable!!

[@penelopeschinwag]

Ah, lovely to have you along watching me make it.

[@carolynlambert6989]

G’day Penne, how generous & kind you are sharing your crafting skills, tips and little secrets ⭐️ I’ve loved these since you showed them many episodes ago, just so sweet as macarons should be 🍡🍡🍡🍡 THANK YOU I’m going to order a few kits 💖💖💖🇦🇺

[@penelopeschinwag]

I'm so pleased you enjoyed it and more than that have been inspired. Be careful, they are addictive. My friend has just made her 70th!

[@lesleywright9210]

Thank you so much for this tutorial Pene. When I suggested it I never for a moment thought you would find time to do it so soon. I need to get my supplies ordered now.

[@penelopeschinwag]

Enjoy, and hope it helps. xx

[@margaretmartin6620]

You have the patience of Job. Very nice! Such pretty fabrics.😀❤

[@penelopeschinwag]

That made me laugh. Two camps, those that say I can't wait to make one - my friend is now on her 70th! The other camp that says lovely but too fiddly!

[@marciastreeter5092]

Wonderful instructions! Your videos appear quite professional.

[@penelopeschinwag]

Aw thanks, If you could see the bag of sand balanced on the tripod and the phone positioned so I can see what I'm filming at the same time as sewing and getting it in shot. Phew, that comment meant a lot!!

[@marciastreeter5092]

@penelopeschinwag I was hoping you would share about the camera. Your work always looks very professional...both your crafts and the filming.

[@karenrobinson4812]

that was a lovely relaxing watch, beautiful macaron purse too!

[@penelopeschinwag]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@carolschobs2621]

Hi Penelope I’ve come across from Helen’s channel and now subscribed to you. It’s Saturday evening and have watched this video and thoroughly enjoyed watching you sew, and can I say it was beautifully stitched. Thank you for sharing I will look forward to watching many more. 😊

[@jacquelineknox1977]

Thank you Penelope for showing us how to sew these macarons. Something to keep in mind for a future project for me. I hope Pete and yourself are keeping well and look forward to catching up next time. xx PS Hello from hot Melbourne 38 degrees!

[@penelopeschinwag]

Ooh 38. I do fancy some sun but not sure about 38. I'd melt. Wait till it cools a bit before tackling a macaron. xx

[@jacquelineknox1977]

@@penelopeschinwag Ha ha I will wait Penelope. We had a storm go through too and have no power now. The air conditioning went off. 🥺

[@penelopeschinwag]

Oh crumbs, I'll stick with what I have then!

[@priscillamcgarry5200]

So very happy that Pete is feeling better… so important to never stop believing in miracles 🥳

[@penelopeschinwag]

[@carols_crafting_space]

What a brilliant tutorial Penny! I haven’t made one of these in ages. I really must make some more. I hope Pete is making progress and that you are keeping well and looking after yourself too. Lots of love ❤️ xxx
