Lisa's Stitching Essential Tools for Wool Applique

[@DebraMCross]

Watched part of it, was interrupted. Watched again. So much to learn. Thanks Lisa.

[@kathybaker3341]

I've been a fan of Primitive Gatherings for many years and I have most of the tools you have suggested. Everything I know about wool applique, I learned from you throughout the years. (I guess I can "blame you" for my addiction.) My favorite "tool" would be your needle collection. Looking forward to many more years of learning from you. Thank you!

[@dianehubble6289]

Love the tools you are showing the only thing I haven't used is the magic pins. I will put them on my wish list today. Thank you for sharing these great products.

[@karenritter270]

Over the years, I have acquired each of the tools that Lisa presents in this video. They truly make a difference for me. The needles are the best I have used of each type. The stem rulers sped up my stem cutting. I took my copy of the guide book to have a spiral binding put on it, which is easier for me to use. I LOVE the Valdani threads most of all! And thank goodness for the smaller book to keep track of the threads that I have. I don’t order duplicates any more. Got my thread bowl in the 2019 holiday box. I keep a basket with my bowl, small scissors, different needle tubes, marking pens that I can carry to where I am stitching, along with my stitching pillow. I have learned so much from Lisa that has improved my stitching and made my hobby that much more enjoyable. Thank you, Lisa!

[@lisablanco8694]

Thanks for sharing. The tips you shared are invaluable for the beginner and seasoned stitcher too!

[@phoebebitler7040]

I use many of your needful things, but I asked for a wool press mat for Christmas! Thanks for teaching me how to easily thread my needles for wool applique; such a useful trick!

[@maryannservi1997]

I love your needles, I use them all the time. Thanks for all the tips they are great.

[@chelleqlter]

So glad to see all the tools you use. I have a lot of them, but have to get one of those thread bowls.

[@melanieb8861]

I still need that book!! Wool Needle and Thread is on my wishlist! Nice video, very helpful!

[@chrisjacobs7187]

I think it’s AWESOME that you are making these videos! What a wonderful resource, and Of Course I have almost all your tools... I need to try the new fusible web & the pins. Thanks for always sharing!!

[@pennydominici4465]

I was happy to see the way you label your needles. Very practical.

[@bakerchic]

Thanks Lisa for the wonderful video. Just getting in to wool and will be putting several of these (especially the book) on my wishlist. 😊

[@dianepoirier711]

Love all of the Primitive Gatherings needles. They are the only needles I use!

[@angelamccubbins9405]

Thank you for your videos. I am learning so much about wool. I’m so excited to start getting the wool box!

[@novellamccracken5326]

Thank you for showing these essential tools. I have some but need more!

[@lisabatris3426]

Great video! Love all the products you mention, but the one that I didn't have is the embroidery template set! Thank you!

[@patnordahl2477]

I partially like the white marking pen with the liquid chalk and the chenille 24 needles.

[@twovisual]

What a great and informative video! Your needles are the best!

[@sharonbecker3316]

Great video on tools! I have many of them but learned new ways to use them!

[@lureneswalve4942]

Thanks for all the tips and tricks!

[@MaryonLakePulaski]

It is great to see and hear all of your tricks on the best tools!

[@barbaramorse9022]

Thank you for doing this video. I have a few of them but still need to branch out more.

[@donnakuehl1981]

I didn’t believe a needle could make such a difference until I tried the binding needles - they are wondeful!

[@jenniferstelzer9414]

We are looking forward to a beginner’s wool appliqué series so we can start a new hobby!

[@christiestevens6]

These tips are great. Thanks for the tip on the Clover chalk pen!

[@misssassifras6605]

This is an excellent video. I learned so much about the tools I need for wool applique, and to discover that I have some of them in my toolbox already. Now I can make a list of what I still need to purchase. Thank you for the thorough explanation of all of these tools.

[@audreybretz4213]

I am just finishing up your Old St. Nick table mat. I actually have to fray check the edges of the backing and then blanket stitch around the edge. I am a wool convert! It was so much fun to make this and a lot easier than I expected. I bought your Wool, Needle and Thread book and it was very helpful! I look forward to watching this video tonight to pick up some more tips. I bought last years Christmas wool box and life got in the way of doing those projects. I can't wait to work on those now!! I used the #24 needles and I've also used the binding needles - they are fantastic!

[@katherinebailey4677]

I love all of your essential tools. I especially love the Heat n bond fusible! Thanks for all of your help

[@bonnielarson2600]

I love your tutorials and your applique needles. Thanks so much for these

[@dedebenson5956]

I love having some hand applique ready to go for car rides, vacations, etc, and Primitive Gathering needles are THE best, because the pkg tells me what its for. I tend to get lost in needles, which is for what, hand sewing, & machine. She makes it so i dont have to remember what is for what! Live it!

[@pattilevine5776]

Love this video and especially like the Crazy Quilt Stitch guides....they will make it so much easier and more consistent.....Thanks Lisa!

[@jamibradley2297]

Your book has great photos and words that makes it so there aren't any questions on how its done. Kuddos to you and your helpets.

[@lindawalters7442]

I'm so excited to start wool applique!

[@blpeterson93]

Thank you for sharing the tips and tools to be successful. With just starting in the wool arena I can use all the guidance I can get! Thank you again!

[@lisamikel8746]

That was a great video Lisa! Thank you for sharing all the great items you like to use. I love them all.

[@glennschulz2071]

I love using all the needles you've listed. In fact all that you talk about on this video I use. Wonderful!

[@sherrycowley8120]

I just got my thread bowl. Such a big help; keeps my thread ball from running away. And is SO cute! Thanks.

[@jenniferstevenson7954]

I NEED the book & so much more! I have only just started wool applique and that is all thanks to your awesome blog. I need to check out more of your KZbin videos too! I just received my first order from your shop & I can't wait to open it for Christmas!

[@lindaelliott8328]

I always used the same needles to do everything, until Lisa introduced me to her different needles. Now that is all I use. Binding needles are the very best!

[@kathrynchapman9098]

Thanks so much for this video... I liked all of the great information but especially the info on the needles. I finally understand how the embellishment needles can help and why I have been struggling with the wimpy wire in my needle threaders that keep breaking. So back to my Primitive Gatherings wish list - lots more things to add.

[@joanriker621]

Her wool applique technique is superb- the detail in craftsmanship makes all the difference. I bought the book and followed along even though i have sewn different things for 50 years. This book made a HUGE difference in my finished project. I am eager to try some more of the different needles - the right equipment makes wool applique so pleasurable! I agree with the remarks about the steam a seam-makes my needle gummy. Thank you for this instruction!!

[@bonnibrooks47]

I have both books & they're great! I didn't realize it was better to use the thicker thread around the edges of mats. My items are going to look better now!

[@cviss8189]

Thanks Lisa. I've done some wool applique but you showed a few tools that i will definitely add to my kit!

[@deejohnson4852]

Love my wool appliqué stitching book!!

[@jaypage8312]

So thankful for your videos! Thought I would just figure it out as I go until watching your videos. So much amazingness to simplify things! Thank You!! (Kay Page)

[@karenjohnston8651]

Your book was a game-changer for me!

[@annsmith8533]

Thanks for the marking pen information! I love all of your needful things

[@kathydecker889]

Love your binding and embellishing needles and the Magic pins!

[@theresaveroline7309]

Love your needles! I love they are alittle shorter and give you more control in your hand!

[@kathykline3436]

I appreciate learning about your preferred tools for wool applique; and I am happy to have a source to buy Heat N Bond featherlite.

[@catesln]

[@delenedrew9934]

I love your book and patterns! I just retired and will finally have time to catch up on all of my Primitive Gatherings projects. Sew excited!

[@triciasmith4223]

Thanks for such an excellent explanation of the essentials, Lisa!

[@sharonphillips980]

My favorite needle is the binding needle. I have shared mine and gotten several friends hooked on them as well. It is essential to have all the essential tools. LOL

[@christinaaltelaar9133]

I absolutely love them all. The only needles that I dont have are big stitch needles. I want to try a quilt with big stitching. Thank you for these amazing videos.

[@pattipitzer8338]

Thanks for sharing with us!

[@jennycopeland531]

so many good tools - the needles are the best (cuz they don't break) - if only there was a needle that would not get lost when you drop it! (my ex-husband would ALWAYS find them when they poked his feet LOL). Love the thread bowl, the rulers and the feather light fusible. Thanks for putting it onsale - I ordered a whole bolt!

[@kathycallahan3994]

Wonderful tools!!! I have the book it is a God send. I can’t wait to get the binding needles. I am using the heat and bond feather lite. I am enjoying wool appliqué so much. I can’t wait to try the pins. Thank you Lisa!!!

[@christinedromgoole6572]

Thank you for such a great video! The explanations for everything really spells it out very nicely. I would love to see a video on the fray check. Merry! Merry!

[@nancythone718]

I'll need some of that Valdani thread. I have been making do with floss - but I think it's time for additional Valdani threads! Also love that iron with all the steam vents! I'll put that on my birthday list. Thanks for an informative video!

[@kellywood7922]

Thanks. Great ideas for my stocking!

[@carolynhansen8686]

Just received some chenille needles as gift and I love them!

[@terimaltese735]

Fantastic video on all the things I want to add to this newbies sewing area!

[@000shades]

Great video, especially the part about the fusible web and the fray check.

[@pamhintze8745]

Love the binding needles! Thank you for sharing.

[@colleenfreeman6162]

I love all of Lisa’s needles. I have tubes of 24 chenille in the car, RV, sewing room, and by the chair where I hand sew. I just bought a box of magic pins and love them as well.

[@wendys2116]

Thanks for the info. I always learn something new on your blog and videos!

[@dlstarley4809]

Love the clover marking pen!

[@pamelapokragac6038]

Ahhhmazing!! I'm such a fan of all things Primitive Gatherings! I get lots of compliments on my projects and I have to credit Lisa and her team for all of it. I've never been disappointed by a PG project, pattern, book, fabric, etc. I bet I could walk into her shop with my eyes closed and choose a project - I'm a years long customer! My favorite events are the Summer BOWs and the Christmas events - and now we have her fantastic videos too. Thank you everyone at Primitive Gatherings for always exceeding expectations and inspiring my love of all things creative!!

[@stephanietabares7506]

Thank you Lisa for this video, the explanation of each item was perfect. Love your videos, I viewed many on Facebook, glad to see they are now available here.

[@jonscam]

Love your book and I don't use any other needles but yours. You know how much I love your creativity! Jonnie Nottingham

[@lindalundstrom6659]

This video is great and I love your Wool, Needle & Thread book. I can't wait to get my needed supplies.

[@carlynnewright1816]

Enjoyed your video very much. I am a quilter but I have seen so many beautiful wool projects. I believe having the proper tools is very important. Thank you for reviewing.

[@mediambe]

Been following you for years and had the opportunity to visit your store in California while at last year’s Road To California quilt show. Love the book and used it when I appliquéd my reindeer pillow but it looks like I need a few of the other tools you mentioned. 😉. Thanks for sharing how you use the tools.

[@trupple4725]

Nothing more valuable than information about tools you use, Lisa. Thanks for all of the great tutorials!!

[@sgmilo]

I love your wool designs. Thank you for all of the tips!

[@debramiller254]

I have your book and really appreciated all the extra info in this video! Can't wait to try all the different items!

[@lorricummings2054]

I love the Clover liquid white pen also, and the woolly pressing mat for all my quilt pressing. Would love to try your binding needles when they come. I love to hand bind, but any device to make it faster is great. The steam iron looks awesome.

[@LoveMYLabs]

I’m saving this video for the links you have. Thank you!

[@Canyongal]

I broke my little thread bowl from last years Christmas box. I can’t believe I dropped it, it was one of my FAVORITE things!

[@vickisprain2760]

Love your book! It has helped this Wool newbie so much in learning about using wool in my projects!

[@kellycallison3452]

I love all your info🧵. Can’t wait to try your needles. My favorite wool project is all of them😲

[@pattikaplan7001]

[@lauriebaker9082]

Your appliqué needles are the best!

[@lisah3866]

I really like the book and will be adding it to the things I need to pick up I think it is going to be a great addition as I am just getting into wool applique. Thank you for posting the video it was very informative.

[@juliedeering3859]

I have your book and use it a lot and I love the chenille needles for wool appliqué. Really like the heat n bond featherweight. Used the binding needle for the first time today. Awesome!!

[@carolbailey5793]

Love that you share what we need to be successful doing our projects. Thank you.

[@carmenmullins8901]

I am going to check out the wool applique needles. Sounds like I need these. :)

[@judyzoll3369]

I have used your book several times. It’s a great reference book. I have just started using your binding needles and have used your chenille needles for some time. I also purchased the Clover white marker based on your recommendation. I keep watching and learning. Can’t wait for quilt shows to resume, miss shopping in person. Thanks for your needful things list.

[@junekempston7405]

Great video!!! Love all the helpful tips and needful tools and supplies.

[@joannemoniz4316]

Thanks for the tips of the fusible….I just took a class on wool appliqué and just hate the fraying. Going to adhere my pieces to the Heat and Bond….I like a more crisp edge! Love your teachings!!!!! ❤️❤️
