[@desrieebeckford4879]

You did a great job and the pants came out nice.

[@shaylabowen6513]

I just started sewing too !! I usually make sure to take a piece of the excess fabric and play with the stitches and tension that helps my thread from breaking when I’m in the zone Lol. Hope that might help the pants look good 😍😍

[@iamEgypt]

Thank uu! I’ll try that

[@tinfinz]

[@06Joybells]

🤍🤍🤍 good job thinking out of the box and being creative. If you make sure you presser foot is always up when you thread your machine and your tension is correct for your type of fabric, the thread should stop breaking.🤍🤍🤍

[@iamEgypt]

Thank youuu! I appreciate it

[@johnessaluckett1114]

Omgoshh I literally had the same problem making my bandanna pants !!😫

[@iamEgypt]

It ended up working out for me 😭

[@Lxrenpark]

hey, I had to watch w/the sound off because im at work lol so im not sure if you said where the blanket was from or not. But was it bought online or store?

[@iamEgypt]

hey, i bought it from a local thrift store

[@myagrimes2406]

These look so good!!! Do you know what the type of blanket is called?

[@iamEgypt]

Thank u!! It’s called a tapestry blanket

[@beau1154]

I’m new to sewing and I’m so confused how you got the tassels on the outside?!This is probably dumb and it’s ac straight forward 😩💕

[@iamEgypt]

Nooo that’s not dumb at all! I was having the same issue in the video 🤣. I sewed them the wrong way and had to undo to start over again. I folded the tassels in so while you’re sewing they should be on the inside of the pants and when you flip it inside out they should be on the outside. Pin your pants where you plan to sew then test it out to see if the tassels end up on the outside after sewing. I hope that makes sense 😭

[@MrJackrockerman]

I love you girl..❤😍

[@millicentmcclary]

Sweet

[@jaloneynorwood4306]

Your crochet part was off because measurements from the beginning need seam allowance, continue at it each time you will become more please with your sewing 👏🏾👏🏾😂❣️

[@iamEgypt]

Yeah ik it didn’t fit properly on that part 🤣 thank uu

[@latameofficial]

what's the name of you camo hoodie at the beginning of the video sis and where is it from? loved the video!

[@iamEgypt]

Thank youu. I thrifted the jacket but the brand is called rugged outdoor gear

Bass pro shop

[@reneeball3412]

You truly have a gift :) Magic Fingers :)

[@iamEgypt]

thanksss

[@AR-ci6vd]

Watch videos on your sewing machine. Usually when ur thread is breaking it’s either the wrong thread for the fabric and in most cases the tension from the thread is too tight.

[@iamEgypt]

Okayyy thank u

[@Jaryism]

Egypt is a country. How do you know someone isn't talking about the country vs talking to you on a day to day basis? Makes you think...

[@iamEgypt]

people in my life rarely talk about Egypt the country on a day to day basis and if they do i know what they’re referring to by using context clues

[@jillianaaa]

Period as you should 😭

[@patiencepierre]

Episode 2 please! 🥺

[@iamEgypt]

Coming soon!

[@kylaymichelle4818]

I made somebody’s pants using a pattern from Sewist.com and I ended up having to cut the fringe off and reattach it bc I wanted the pants to fit my client better😭 .

[@lisamonae9180]

Where do you get blankets like this from? 😣👉🏽👈🏽

[@iamEgypt]

The thrift store

[@zahfloyd8334]

I know this probably an obvious question but Where do you get the rug fabric from⁉️

[@iamEgypt]

I get them at the thrift store

[@beautifulmind8242]

So I’m making some and I’m about to go crazy . How do i get the tassels on the outside

[@iamEgypt]

thats the same issue i had in the beginning lol. when you sew make sure that they are folded in so when you flip in inside out they'll be on the outside

[@mema4577]

超かわいい so cute

[@kylan4160]

I see you go to FSU , did you find the blanket in thomasville or Tallahassee?

[@iamEgypt]

I found it in Tallahassee

[@kylan4160]

@@iamEgypt thanks ! Subbed nice to see local people on the rise

[@yazmynebright5892]

What's the little tool you were using to undo the stitch. I need one because I be trying to use my scissors.

[@iamEgypt]

It’s called a seam ripper. I recommend

[@X.BaddieB]

Ugh girl thanks!! 😍People on Twitter are acting so stingy 😭

[@iamEgypt]

no probzz lmaooo

[@rae9666]

What is the material called that's on the sides of the pants? And where can you find it??😭

[@iamEgypt]

Heyy they’re called fringe tassels I think. They come on the blanket so I’m not sure where you can find them separately. I searched it up and there’s some sellers on Etsy, Amazon, & even Walmart. I hope that helps!!

[@rae9666]
