Sewing my handspun, handwoven fabric for the first time ever!

I'm sewing my handspun, handwoven fabric! This is my first sewing project where I'm using my own handmade fabric. I learned so much from this project including how to cut my handwoven fabric without it falling apart. This project is truly a fiber to finished item project, and I'm so glad I jumped in and did it!

🐑 The fiber I spun to weave the fabric for this project was sent from Paradise Fibers. You can get some of this awesome Corriedale here (affiliate) 👉 www.paradisefibers.com/produc...

I know weaving is supposed to be cut to make garments etc, but still, you're a braver woman than I am. The bag is awesome.

[@JillianEve]

I think weaving more fabric to cut and make garments from is fast approaching! 🥰

[@TealCheetah]

Ooooh I love the fabric you wove!

[@sikari_likes_birds]

This bag is beautiful!

[@marilynalexieff285]

That is a magnificent accomplishment! Congratulations!

[@acwhit1593]

I know I am very late to this video, but I was just so totally impressed by every step that you took in making your bag! And yes, I would have been absolutely terrified to cut that beautiful hand spun hand woven work of art!

[@MsSavvy9]

I think I got new wrinkles watching this video! I was tensely squinting while you were cutting! New to your channel and watching everything!

[@MoniqueAO888]

The bag is so beautiful !!! My biggest problem with sewing is also the first cut...♪♫ The first cut is the deepest... ♪♫ 🙂

[@kimreese9400]

You're going to LOVE steeking; what a trip! I cut a sweater up the middle for a knitting group I was seeing every week and I thought they'd all faint right there. But they all enjoyed watching a pullover become a cardigan!

[@esmecat]

"i may pull all of this out and use it in some textured art batts..."

[@JillianEve]

No fiber left behind is right! 😁💕🧶

[@robinmitchell4721]

You showed a shawl pin in one of your videos. It would look smashing on the flap.

[@valerieellison2483]

Your hair is really cute in this video.

[@janej6253]

Love that woven fabric! Beautiful job on that! 💜💜💜

[@jenniferasbury7564]

Congratulations! It is beautiful!☺

[@alisonhenry820]

I love that your son called tea "leaf water. " That is essentially what it translates to in Ojibwe language!

[@jaggertadeo7276]

Sorry to be off topic but does any of you know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost my password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me.

[@jaggertadeo7276]

@Uriah Eric Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process atm. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@jaggertadeo7276]

@Uriah Eric it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my ass :D

[@uriaheric1565]

@Jagger Tadeo You are welcome :)

[@valeriegeorgevitch3876]

Yeah Evie!!!! Wonderful -- new mantra "Use the good stuff" - cut the beautiful handspun!!

[@JillianEve]

Love it!! It's true! 🧶✨💕

[@needleandhomestead]

Absolutely beautiful. I love how you quadrupled the singles in the weft I stead of using them plied. It added a great texture effect.

[@lorielliott4529]

Thank you so much for sharing your success and all your doubts and anxieties. I'm just learning spindle spinning and these fears are in my future. You did it! I can too! ❤️

[@sharonmurrell9291]

Lovely!!!!! Thoroughly enjoyed your experiment. It worked!!!!! Wonderful bag😊😊😊 and a pleasure to watch!!!

[@sandrataylor3723]

Love the bag and all the hard work that went into making it. You have more patience than I do, that's for sure. I'm just starting out using a cardboard loom and I get so frustrated when taking it off the loom. Thanks for pointing out about sewing the end so that it does not unravel.

[@jodrichy]

I need to build myself a loom. So I can weave some pillows this summer. Your bag turned out awesome.

[@creativitybytrisha6819]

Your fabric and bag turned out amazing! Great job overcoming your fear and cutting your handwoven handspun!

[@JillianEve]

Thank you! This project was great fun! 💕

[@rosakoko5049]

I would never cut such a beautiful fabric for a bag - the bag is not worthy of being so expensive and difficult 😘 I would make a wonderful vest - warm, cozy and beautiful !!!🌷💖🌷

[@JillianEve]

Thank you! A vest is on my project list...coming up soon! 💕

[@rosakoko5049]

@@JillianEve GREAT IDEA!!! I LOVE IT 🌷💖🌷👍👍👍👏👏👏

[@barbkenney5843]

Have you considered top stitching in a quilting weight thread? I think it would give your gorgeous bag that 'polished' look. Ask someone who sews bags if you are nervous. Your weaving and spinning is spectacular!

[@JillianEve]

I like that idea! Thank you!

[@Meredith36]

This was so inspiring! Well done! I know this video is from years ago and you've progressed so much-- but this makes me less scared to start/continue the projects that I have

[@DandySprat]

listening to those scissors go through the handwoven fabric sounded so satisfying!

[@_vanearaujo]

Amazing journey! I'm willing to weave a shoulder bag too and this two videos were so joyful and inspiring to watch. My heart also stopped on the moment of cutting the fabric 😂 I'm glad it went okay and the result is super gorgeous💖

[@cerwelt]

It’s beautiful. Surprised it took you so long to use your weaving with a pattern. I watch a British gal that weaves to make garments. She even makes patterns for narrower hand woven fabric. I can’t talk, I’ve just purchased my first loom and am still in practice mode. I imagine when I get to where you are I’ll be slow to cut too.

[@sadiesspincraft6319]

Beautiful beautiful beautiful bag evie you have done a fantastic job x

[@JillianEve]

Thank you so much Sadie! 😊💕

[@KidaleSmith]

Yo that's legit, cool stuff haha

[@amym5926]

Congratulations on the beautiful bag! Stay in the lines, baste, and be brave. Good advice for life! 😊

[@JillianEve]

Yes! Thank you, it really is! LOL! 🧶💕

[@kimreese9400]

I'm so impressed with all your skill! I've never been able to sew, so watching other people do it is like seeing them walk in water! Congratulations!

[@charitywhitman1976]

Wow that is amazing!!! So pretty

[@JillianEve]

Thank you! 🥰

[@jessicawright1656]

Well done! I've loved seeing all steps of this project. The bag is beautiful! I love how you shared about the "mistakes". My projects always have mistakes or flaws too. Here's to staying genuine about it!

[@JillianEve]

Thank you Jessica!

[@deejcarter2003]

Thank you so much for sharing. I love that you did something other than the norm. I hope you continue making different projects with hand spun yarn🥰

[@JillianEve]

Thank you so much! I really enjoyed sewing my handspun with this project, I think I'll have to do more! 💕

[@KristinMoran]

The wrong side of your gorgeous handwoven fabric reminds me of a Lite-Brite board!

[@lisamartin3928]

I loved watching you make your purse. The fabric is gorgeous and the bag is great! it is all so inspiring to me and the timing is perfect - today, I started dressing my floor loom for the first time ever. Once I’ve had some practice, my first project will be a scarf woven from my own hand spun. I’m so excited! Thank you this video.

[@kitkat1971]

Looks awesome!

[@Janka007]

Well done, girl! Turned out beautiful, I really like it!

[@JillianEve]

Thank you! 💕

[@EmphaticStorm]

Oh my goodness gracious, you did SO WELL! It looks amAHZING! I was cringing along with you when you made the first cut, but OMGEEEZ, you did such a good job, I'm so happy for you! Thank you for making these videos, I LOVE IT!

[@bunhelsingslegacy3549]

Haha, leaf water. In my house chicken broth is bird water... but that turned out so lovely, how is it holding up? I kept thinking with the leftover yarn maybe tablet weave some trim for the strap, but wow is that ever lovely. And now I know what I want to do with some of that canvas I acquired... because it was purple...

[@Go-zi1py]

Your bag is great. I think it would be cool to make another one (with a different woven fabric!!) and alter the pattern so the flap is straight along the bottom so you don't have to cut the curved edges and you could leave the fringe. Hope you get that.

[@lorainew4281]

Your bag turned out really awesome Evie! After watching you cut your weaving, I’m willing to try one day too, thank you!

[@JillianEve]

You can do it!

[@bethanyhull5355]

It's totally gorgeous. You are an inspiration. It's especially fun to see your proud and pleased reaction as you put it together. 💕

[@JillianEve]

Thank you! I'm still really pleased with it! 😁

I have to say, I was totally holding my breath when you cut it! This is awesome though! It turned out great!

[@sonjanordahl3158]

I have been wondering about cutting handwoven fabric. That is what I thought I would do. It still looks terrifying!!!

[@freakygeak]

you mean this was not part of steaking ? 😮 great work in case I did not say it during the live👍👍

Thank you! 🥰

Great project? I’m just about to cut some of my own handspun/handwoven for the first time… Can you share what kind of shredder you use for your ‘waste’? Thanks :)

[@charlottekerlavage361]

The bag is gorgeous 😍 I dont think i would ever be brave enough to cut my work.

[@JillianEve]

It was scary for sure! But worth it! 💕🧶😊

[@woolywonders5546]

Such a cute bag love the colors looks very professional 😊 I’m inspired to make one as well! Happy thanksgiving 🦃🍁🍽

[@JillianEve]

Thank you! You too!

[@mandylavida]

That fabric is dribble-worthy.

[@rachelmaynard2042]

I was literally holding my breath when you had the scissors ready to cut the fabric. It turned out great, though.

[@JillianEve]

Thank you! 🧶💕

[@Gigimamapa5]

👏👏👏

[@Silverstreamhomecrafts]

Could this pattern be done on a ridged heddle with two heddles on it?

[@stretch4960]

Additionally you can zigzag you edges after you cut them. Just suggestions. It will be beautiful.

[@barkingsheep5224]

Omg so many projects have been called as "done" and promptly cut off the loom because I just didnt feel like fussing with fixing something. 😂😂

[@JillianEve]

Right!!??!! 😅 I'm glad I'm not the only one!

[@tracyirwin9578]

Gorgeous! And a few mistakes makes it hand made with love :-) It sounds like your son is a giant dork lol.

[@JillianEve]

😊 Thank you and yes, he is just like his mom! 🤣

[@kristalburns3490]

Steaking! Now dont go all wild on us.

[@JillianEve]

Too late! Haha! 😁🤣

[@juliahill6776]

Not me internally panicking as I watch her cut her beautiful handwoven fabric. 😰

[@stretch4960]

You have to be really careful with Fraycheck. It's a great product but if you get it within you seam allowance it can turn your fabric permanently dark or make it look wet and you can't get it out. The basting on both sides of your cutting line is the best. Just handle your pieces gently until you get them sewn together and then they should last forever.

[@JillianEve]

I completely agree! 💕

[@truthwithbaba777]

Looks great!
