We have a lot in common; I started sewing at age 10 (53 years ago), I love my “collection” of Gingher scissors ✂️ that have so far lasted me 29 years and lastly I am still using my Husqvarna 1+ that I purchased approximately in 1996. I love the magnetic bracelet hack that I will gift to my granddaughter (age 9) when we start our sewing lessons! I can’t wait to learn more hacks! Who said you can’t teach an old dog new hacks? 😂

Hey Lady! Thank you for these great ideas! I made some pincushions out of old bangle bracelets. Not practical. They don't let you get your wrist in there to work and they catch or stop you from getting your hands where they need to be. To bulky. Fun but if you sew alot you need a quick pin collector. I drop pins on the floor so it will help me pick it up quick. I sew barefoot because my cat would sleep by my foot peddle and I was worried not to catch her in between when I pushed down. Have a great day.

Great magnetic hacks. I have magnetic tool holders screwed under a shelf above my sewing machine to hold scissors, needles, Etc. off the table. The magnetic tool holder bars can also be slipped into a sleeve attached to a fabric basket for temporary storage attached to a magnetic whiteboard. I use a large magnetic whiteboard as a temporary cutting surface covered with rotary cutting mats. The magnetic skittle pins can be used to pin patterns to fabric, lighter in weight than fabric weights, they stay in place but are easy to pick up and move out of the way. A couple of magnetic tool holders screwed to the edge of a wardrobe hold the whiteboard out of the way when the sewing room reverts to an extra bedroom. When it is stored vertically the whiteboard can be used as a design board.

I immediately subscribed and enjoyed learning how to make your bracelet pin magnet as well as your flat magnetic pin catcher. Love both of these projects! Your videos are very enjoyable to watch, you have a wonderful speaking voice, no loud jarring music which is definitely a plus. I've also been sewing for over 40 years and you've already taught this old girl some new tricks! 😉 I know it's been a while, but please accept my condolences on the loss of your family member. FYI the Amazon link for the point turner links back to the loop turner.

The magnets never go near my machine, one is worn on my wrist, and the other is a pin cushion...neither are on or near my metal components.

Hello, there it's a Viking/Husqvarna - Huskystar 224. They do not make this particular brand anymore, but I love it! I am currently shopping for a new one, and shopping Juki, Husqvarna, and Babylock. I cannot decide if I want a domestic or industrial machine! Mor to come on that - the lamp rocks I have (2) of them! The link for it is in the description below! Thanks for watching!

Just came across your 2 yr old video for your clever wristlet and flat pincushion. Question: Do you just discard the metal plates? Or is there another use for them? Thanks posting!
@StreamlineSeamstress
@StreamlineSeamstress 2 жыл бұрын
Hello JLP, thanks for the question. I actually keep the metal plates and use them for when I sew magnets into items. Shower curtains, Covers, Wristlets - anytime I am sewing magnets into something I use them to stop the magnet from interfering with my sewing machine. Works like a charm!

Hi, I just discovered you, and love your ideas so I'm sure I"ll be going back and watching more of your videos! I just wondered, what is that thing that looks like a bone folder that you're holding in your right hand while you're sewing?

So you only use one side of the magnet? Do you use the other side for anything else?
@StreamlineSeamstress

The magnets I use are metal on one side so it is not magnetic on the underside. :)
