How would you stitch this type of fabric? Thank you for your time and I appreciate the advice I have been gleaning from your videos. You have done so well for yourself.

[@maisecatx7341]

I love your discipline and hard work, no wonder you are successful 💓 Just curious, I see you sew scrunchies from a variety of different fabrics, how do you manage with matching sewing threads when you sew to close the opening? Thanks

[@TaylahRose]

Thank you! I only use white or black currently once I get a full on studio I may change to actual colours for the closing stitches ☺️

[@AtelierBritta]

Can I ask why you don’t iron the fabric before and after? Genuinely curious because everyone on KZbin says to iron!

[@TaylahRose]

Hey! They are never wrinkly enough unless I’ve stored them badly! If I have stored them the wrong way and it’s crinkled I will iron but I rarely have to 😌

[@ptcreations8947]

I have seen a couple of videos where they say they dont iron the material because looks better that way since its a scrunchie. :D

[@ivettepuga7171]

I knew 1000 was the right number!

[@jenniferkennedy6282]

It hurts my sole that you don’t count your stock, I sell amateur radio equipment and I know exactly how many connectors I have it’s just like a compulsive thing for me! You do you though I’m glad you love what you do! Well done on your achievement!

[@learysuhari9123]

Hi Taylah how do you sell the different scrunchies like that on etsy? because they are different patterns rigght

[@christievalenzuela2003]

Hi there! New to making scrunchies & I'm so inspired by your style. I'm curious though as it seems you don't back stitch, & your scrunchies seem fine. What is it that give it the strong hold? Is it the final stitch or maybe the sewing machine you have? (Genuinely curious & would love to be able to make scrunchies as fast as you!)

[@TaylahRose]

Hey! I stitch the final part using 0-1mm stitch which doesn’t come undone 😌

[@JoyceXiu]

Just want to ask how do you take care of your rotary cutter blade? Do you return the blade to its container after cutting or do you just store it with the cutter? I keep getting blunt blade and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

[@TaylahRose]

My rotary cutter has a protective part that comes down to protect the blade! I have heard that the cutting mat used can make the blade very very blunt quickly if it’s a cheap one! I found I went through so many until I got my mat which is a fiskars one. Fiskars or Olfa cutting Mats are great! I also think that Olfa has better blades than fiskar in my opinion ☺️

[@cathyvouk6060]

Hi, can you please explain what the difference between the thinner elastic to the wider? Ty 😊

[@TaylahRose]

wider elastic generally is much denser and not as stretchy which creates a firmer hold and needs less wraps around the hair compared to thinner elastic that is usually quite stretchy 🥰
