[@kathytincler2446]

I can't believe it! I've watched a tooon of tus on super simple something to get me started but all are still just not quite right...still a little daunting. I have never sewed (I knit & recently learned crocheted) but have this desire to learn how. This is so wonderful....perfect, just what I was looking for a super easy stat. You explain so well & I loved the written notes right in the vid. I'm going to Joanns later today to get what I need. I am 70 & am here to tell you that you CAN teach an old dog new tricks haha (seriously) Thanx a mil!! :D

[@halaetriby754]

very good way of explaining how to do the work, very useful, thank you.

[@george40ish]

Thank you for the tutorial! I am going to make some for Christmas.

[@LadyDubz99]

Hi. I love your videos. Very new to the sewing machine. I noticed you left pins along the top of the placemat while explaining the steps. Do you leave them in as you sew? I’ve tried placemats before and struggle with the raw edges shifting once I remove the pins. Or could be the foot? I’m using the basic foot currently. Thanks in advance. 😊

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Lady Dub. Yes I use pins. When stitching I remove one pin at a time. Try not to stitch over the pins because you might bread a needle. If you are using cotton batting in your placemats, you need to use a "walking" presser foot. It feeds the fabric layers under the presser foot evenly. If you use a standard presser foot, the fabric will stretch and can also cause pin tucks in the fabric. You can purchase the foot from a sewing machine dealer store or order one from sewingpartsonline. com. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching💗 and happy sewing😍

[@spookynoise1640]

Thanks for this video I’m going to make some for all the holidays! ♥️

[@gwendowell9089]

[@justjan147]

Thank you for this wonderful tutorial! I'm looking forward to making these for gifts. Please tell me if you prewash your fabric before starting, thank you.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Jan. If you are using cotton fabrics, I would prewash with cool water and a mild detergent. Happy sewing.

[@justjan147]

The Sewing Room Channel Thank you for your FAST response. Good to know, I'm off to pick my fabrics. Thank you again for your tutorials, they're thorough and your delivery is calm and clear.

[@sylviapineda6717]

awesome, well done, thanks, palm springs,ca.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@nanny5301]

Love your videos! Instead of using pins, the Frixion pens could be used. Mark a dot with the pins and when done iron the dots away! I use them all the time to mark fabrics as the heat of the iron removes the pen marks. Keep your videos coming!!

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Nanny. Thanks for the tip. Happy sewing.

[@janjax45]

I have really enjoyed making two of these and although they are a bit wonkey I love them! Thanks for sharing and showing us how. ( Jan1945)

[@brindabellabella2354]

The more u do less wonky I don't mind wonky

[@carolynthibodaux9823]

a great pattern; however, I have frixion pens for marking and it irons away. I love this tutorial because you can decorate it as you wish with quilting design and fabric.

[@sararamos3903]

Why does my fabric move as I am sewing? Do I need to put more pins in? Or change the foot? I just bought a Janome for beginners and I’ve used the Foot that comes with it. As I’m sewing I’m getting little tiny plates, here and there. Help.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Sara. You need to use a "walking presser foot". You can order one from sewingpartsonline.com. Then enter "walking presser foot". There will be a list of sewing machines with model numbers off to the side. Here is a link to my tutorial on how to use the foot and how to do quilting stitches: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHbYp6CLiJJjbZo Hope this helps. Thanks for watching💗and happy sewing😍

[@shelleyfish87]

I'm going to attempt to make some placemats for the table for Christmas. What kind of cotton batting did you use? I'm feeling a little bit overwhelmed when I look online and in stores...

[@shelleyfish87]

@@TheSewingRoomChannel thanks. I'll have to check it out. I'm super new to sewing and I just want to try making some placemats for the upcoming holidays.

[@reinadegrillos]

Thank you for the nice project!

[@bethbilous4720]

could i draw with washable marker the lines to sew on? Would be so much easier than pins, I think.

[@laurabarba3515]

Thanks for sharing your video. 👑 it was great .😁

[@josydarko]

So nice, thank u so much

[@gloriacabeen2819]

I use a chop stick to gently poke out corners.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Gloria. Yes the chop sticks work really well. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍

[@claudettemonty4077]

Very nice and quick ... if you have to do a gift to the lady of the house who receive me!!

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@damsel1934]

Do you do the quilting with a zigzag foot or your even walking foot?

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Phyllis. I use a walking foot because it helps to prevent the fabric layers from shifting. Happy sewing.

[@lakshmipatnaik9641]

Nice.

[@kathytincler2446]

Ok so I got 2 :D fat quarters (because I didn't know how much to ask for & thought these were small enough to handle) I watched vids for cutting...sizing up, making even & then measured old school with little tick marks but ended up somehow losing a 1/2" on the 19" side & hade to do a lot of trimming. It will have to do as it's all the fabric I have...for now. And I seem to have gotten a rotary with a dull blade...sigh. Anyway I'm going to see if my machine works...or rather can I sew a straight line? haha Can you tell I know NOTHING?? LOL. I am determined to learn this pattern if I have to try 100 times +!! :D

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Kathy. The more you practice sewing the better and easier it will get. Hang in there. Happy sewing.

[@grandmomshinn895]

How many yards of fabric are needed to make a set of six placemats?

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Grandmom. If you want the same fabric on top and bottom, you will need about 6 yards. If you want different fabric on top and the bottom, you will need 3 yards of each. Hope this helps. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIOoYZdjmNKtetk
