Combining Stitches to Make Beautiful Seams for Crazy Patchwork

[@annrubino6252]

From one star to another "thanks for being you". This is bringing me back to some traditional surfacework. There should be a Love button for Marion's World.

Hello Stitching Sister ❤ I really hope at some time in the not too distant future we can do a joint project. I think we are cut from the same cloth. 😁

[@marionsworld24]

I think so too.. I love being a stitching sister. How wonderful! I've got a new project I'm desperate to start... All from the driftwood... There's never enough hours though!

[@viviancothros5541]

You are a great teacher Marion. I love the way you dissect complicated work into simpler units. Thank you for sharing your techniques. Have fun visiting your daughter! ❤

Hi Marion, I just wanted to let you know that I use your video tutorials as a resource, like a reference book that I keep going back to. It’s not a case of one and done! I usually watch it through once and then I get a good sense of the content and I find myself going back and watching and listening more closely and trying to follow instructions. Marion you are a gem and I am very grateful for all that you share and I am so happy that I can go back to videos whenever I need to. I know money is important to survival but I hope you don’t measure your success on the $$$ you do or don’t get from KZbin. Anyone in my life who will listen knows how that there is a wonderful woman on KZbin named Marion and she is one of my teachers. Your videos bring me peace, happiness, joy and knowledge and that all helps to make me a nicer person to be around. What you do has a great ripple effect. Thank you 🙏 dear Mariin

[@marionsworld24]

What a wonderful message to read Cathy. Thank you so much.💐 Of course I just would like my channel to do well... But it's more about sharing knowledge and skills and being able to talk to people I would never have known at all... It's just amazing how I get messages from all over the 🌎... Of course I have to say that the money I've started to get via the ads has been a great help .. I have bills to pay just like everyone else and I've another year to go before I can get my state pension... But the main thing is that I enjoy making things, I enjoy making the videos, and just want everyone to like them so they do well ☺️🤞🤞🤞

[@myrarucker7953]

My husband cannot believe that I am doing embroidery! Told him that is because I’ve never found a good teacher until I found you. So thank you 💐He’s also complaining that I keep raiding his rag bag 😂😂

You and Kathryn are two of my favorites. She is also fond of your work, Marion.

I love the contrast of the fancy looking stitching with the raw edges! So lovely, Marion. 🪡💐♥

[@melindanaumovic8124]

How absolutely sweet. Thankyou for making it simple with the stitches because although i really love crazy patch im scared of it feeling like im out of my depth. Enjoyed that very much and with all the colours. Very gypsy like right up my alley. 🥰🥰

[@marionsworld24]

Well I hope that it shows how just to start simple and carry on 👍😊

[@roseboss5899]

Hi Marion. Love the spontaneity of your decision making whilst stitching, that’s what I like too. No planning, just ’going’!😊 Have a lovely visit with your daughter ❤

[@marionsworld24]

Definitely just go for it... What's the worst that can happen? You get to do more sewing or knitting or whatever you particularly enjoy. And that can't be bad surely..😅

[@k3n.clothtales]

Using a curved needle as a template, genius!

I was taught "tailor's tacks" by my needlework teacher so a rose by any other name lol 😆 as long as it gives the desired effect. Your description and instruction is perfectly clear 👌 x

Wow that is beautiful, I've always wanted to try this type of embroidery but it looked so complicated that I never tried it, you have made it so easy to follow. Thank you

[@AlisonGreenValleyCrone]

K3n introduced me to raw edges and it’s so liberating

[@marionsworld24]

It surely is 👍

[@craftdipper]

Thanks for showing how to do a zigzag!!! Lol, it would never have entered my brain to do it using straight stitches😅 I have also picked up from watching you stitch the little trick of placing your thumb over the thread as it pulls through.... That has saved me many a knot!!! So, thank you for all you teach and show❤ I'm thinking, that crazy patchwork would make a beautiful patch pocket on a plain skirt or pinafore 💡😎

[@marionsworld24]

I have always wanted to make a crazy patchwork dress.... Maybe one day I'll get round to it 😅

[@craftdipper]

@@marionsworld24 I won't be surprised when you do☺️. A patchwork pocket will have to do me😂

[@franciscatrexler3313]

Lovely creative in stitching! You gave me an idea to make my own creative stitching! Thank you.

[@marionsworld24]

Wonderful!

[@susanparker2055]

This was very inspiring. I loved the first seam treatment, and I didn't know that perle cotton came in variegated. It really dresses up the patchwork. The stitching must look a mess on the back, but maybe that will be enclosed and not seen.

[@marionsworld24]

The back isn't too bad. I'll try and remember to show it so you can have a look 😊

[@ingeleonora-denouden6222]

Hi. Kathryn (k3n) mentioned you several times, so I went to your channel too. This crazy patchwork looks great, thank you 😊

Thank you Marlion ❤❤❤❤

[@jeanetteh6842]

A wonderful idea Marion to select crazy patchwork for this stitch book as so much variation is possible. Just love the build up of stitches along every seam. Would never have thought of raw edges as a choice; you are inspirational!

[@marionsworld24]

I'm a rebel 😅

[@kelliecorum5427]

Great 👍

[@melsmith5833]

Your stitching is so pretty and I love the idea of camouflage for the raw edge!

[@marionsworld24]

😊

[@LisaLisa-zl9vu]

I think this is a great technique for a project that won't get washed as often as say a quilt. I'm making a knot bag and struggling with the raw edges. I find myself adding numerous whip stitches to make it satisfactory to my eye! ha ha. But I'm trying to chill out and enjoy the process! Next time however, I will do it kawandi style to relax the quilter in me and be pleased with the seams. Your stitches are lovely.

[@marionsworld24]

Horses for courses I suppose. It's working well here but it won't everywhere. Also depends on how much embellishment is going to be put on too. Lots of factors. Is your knot bag for a special occasion?

[@LisaLisa-zl9vu]

@@marionsworld24 no! I thought it would be fun to make it. It was so new to me this style of bag!! I

[@debzehr3244]

I love this. Thanks Marion. Busy hands…beautiful stitching. 💖💖💖

[@susienikodemus5668]

Lovely Marion, another technique to try! And tonight I finished the Dear Jane quilt as I was watching your video. It certainly was a large project. Have a nice visit with your daughter.

[@marionsworld24]

You've had a mammoth task completing that.. I'm sure it must look superb Susie. You'll need a rest before you tackle something else 😊

[@valeriegeorgevitch3876]

Beautiful -- I can't wait to start mine!! I feel the same and have to keep my hands happily creating. Enjoy your daughter!!

[@susandeveaux4117]

I love crazy quilting so much ! I definitely will be trying to do mine with a raw edge, as you stitch over the seams anyway, & that is very secure. Great idea, Marion !!! Your channel is my favorite & I look forward to each time you post a new one ! Enjoy your daughter !!! 💗

[@marionsworld24]

That's so kind of you to say Sue. I think raw edge won't be for everything. But for this page it's really working out fine 😊

Thank you Marian. I will at some point have a go embroidering lots of different stitches on patchwork. Have a lovely time with your daughter. 😊

Thank you so much for this video - it was really fun to see, that it wasn’t all that difficult 😅and I think I would like a bag sewn with crazy patchwork. I did another shopping haul for pretty second hand fabrics today so I have more variety for the Kawandi blanket and the scraps could go into a crazy patchwork bag. You are such a good teacher - making these beautiful creations seem ok to try. 🌷🌺🫶🏻🍀🌸🥰

[@shinybreesilver3264]

Oh this is so neat! I enjoy you introducing so many different ways to appreciate and use what we have. The crazy patchwork will help me get rid of some wee bits of fabric I keep because they are too pretty to throw away, but too small to do anything with it. I also love the combination of stitches making cute patterns and flowers. Thank you for teaching and inspiring all of us Marion. Have a joyful and safe trip!❤

You are amazing!
