Happy sewing!

Wow, your iron is old. I have one exactly like that. Your sewing machine is exactly like the one I used to use at work before I retired. I just can’t sew as good as you do, lol. I sewed for Bassett Furniture Co. , Hanes Co. then for Sealy Mattress.

I love that iron; older appliances are built to last! I still have a washer/dryer that’s 33 years old and still going strong lol. Even now, if we need something we search for old tools online or thrift. So cool that you sewed for a living! I used to sew samples when I had a children’s wear line and have always enjoyed sewing. Do you still sew as a hobby? My husband has been restoring vintage sewing machines for several years so now I have a lot to choose from, but I would never stop using my Juki.

I would like to record my great admiration for these wonderful works of art. I am from Egypt, and my work is in papyrus, which is made of papyrus, the oldest paper in history. I love handicrafts, and I will try to make one out of papyrus.all my apprecition and respect for your wonderful art works

[@BirdzofaFeather]

Your work sounds fascinating! Would love to see how it turns out if you make one from papyrus.

@@BirdzofaFeather The main problem for me is how to make the ringsframe im trying to see more videos. we all learn

[@shainazion4073]

A heat gun will help melt the glue to make it easier to remove the trim.

[@BirdzofaFeather]

This one happened to be easy to remove but that's a great tip! Thanks for sharing it Shaina!

[@deloresdunbar1464]

So on the seam side just fold it over on itself and sew it down?

[@BirdzofaFeather]

Yes; one side is shorter so the other side fold right over it to finish it nicely.

Nice❤

Thank you Mariana!

[@noorkhawaja3138]

how much fabric will be needed for this shape of lamp shade.

[@BirdzofaFeather]

I really can't give you an exact measurement because it isn't the shape, it's the size of your own particular shade. I think this particular one fit within a metre of fabric, but you need to make a template to determine the sizing for your own shade :).
