I can see about 3 new sewing tools in my craft room. Thank you

I just found your channel and am very impressed with your finds and your clear instructions. Will continue to watch your videos. 🙂

I'm glad you showed the actual Purple Thang, even if it was just the package. I always thought it was just a pointer with a square end and didn't know about the elastic turning slot.

I cover my pressed seam or block with a magazine - has the same effect as a clapper and covers a larger area. Leave it in place to let it cool.

Great things and since I live in Europe I could purchase them tank you

Amazing and helpful. Thank you.

I’m actually in tears watching this. THANK YOU!! Over 20 yrs ago I tried to quilt but started with many small triangles and it went horribly wrong. I never attempted quilting again. I was SO discouraged. You’ve re-inspired me to try again. I think I’ll make a baby quilt for my first grandchild when he or she’s arrives. And I love your opening greeting. You make me smile every time. Thank for sharing your talents and creativity, you wonderful shiny soul.❤

My husband grew up in an upholstery business ran by his father. He can sew and upholster anything! He started making potholders a couple of years ago, he was horrified at the cost of those loops so I taught him how to single stitch crochet and he crocheted his own loops then wove them! They are beautiful! He has a great eye for colors. One of our four sons, while in high school, took Home Economics ( sewing class) he absolutely loved it and made several little items that to this day he still has. Then he would run across campus to football practice. He is the one in his family that sews on the buttons and hems the pants and general repair, bigger problems come to me. I as a woman can do many things with thread and yarn but I am also good with a band saw. Talent doesn’t know gender! Love your channel ❤ and hey I am also 65! I’m in the groove.

Hi Tim. Thank you so much for a very interesting Show & Tell vid❤ ❤ I was wondering if you get the stipend from my Amazon order when I click the links you list? I looked for a link to a store on this video for you and couldn’t find one. I hope you get something from my order. Please advise if I did this correctly as I do want you to get the stipend. Huggles💕💕

Tim, with all due respect there is no word as 'sewist'. Someone who sews is a seamstress.

You are a great sewer! and some of my favorite knitters are Arne & Carlos in Norway!

I got my clapper in 1968 in a college tailoring class for making suits and jackets. We pounded the fabric to make creases permanent. Thanks for showing how I can use it for seams in cotton! What I can't live without are the tailors' ham and seam roll (also from tailoring class) for pressing all kinds of shapes.

You remind me of my son-- he has the same hair style and beard.

Hey! That is better than a fork.

I use both pins and clips. Clips are great for leather, suede, vinyl. The word you was looking for is casing.

That pool noodle knife would make a great cake knife

I have used bedsheets for dresses and drapes from tiger store are great fabric too. I buy cheap purses even if zipper is wrecked or leather worn off and save all the hard wear buckles etc. when I see couches thrown out the big back panel is usually perfectly good I cut it off for sewing totes etc.

How do I find your links to these products?

Some very great items. I actually used my hot hem thing this morning. I’m saving for some useful sewing tools but my cutting board had a mind of its own & was warping all over the place. So that’s where the sewing budget went.

I'm rather new to you. Thanks for your wonderful information!

I really like the circle holder for the bobbins. I'm going to try the zipper thing and the tube turner. The clapper and the heat ruler I've had on my list for a while. Thank you so much for sharing 😀.

I have that hooky turn metal thing…it is worthless! That little clamp thing opens up every time. It has never worked for me. The sewing shop lady said I would die without it, it was 30 dollars! Most of the time a safety pin works just as good.

All my kids and my grandson can sew. The military supply system includes a sewing kit to repair uniforms. It never hurts to at least the basics of sewing. In the 80’s I once shocked someone explaining what was needed to repair my muffler. He said I needed to replace it from that thingy all the way to the tail pipe. I said so the catalytic is good. The look on his face that I know what that thingy was too funny! I don’t understand the trolls. Who really has time to watch a video they don’t like and then take the time to comment?!? I have way better fun things to do and a list of boring domestic crap if I run out of fun things. Or remember I’m an adult that has to do them!

Some neat tools. Never heard of a zipper jig - that is very clever. Thanks for finding & sharing. Part 2 could be useful. Thanks, Tim

New Sub! Great video, Thx for the info& the giggles!🩵💜🎗️

I just tuned in to you and I am very impressed. Thank you

Thank you for this list. My daughter sews her own clothes. Some of these will be in this years holiday package.

Hi Tim Thanks for the great ideas like one on bobbins . My dad was a Taylor that where l leaned some things from him. You are right tou learn from your mistakes. Thanks for all of tips and tutorials on making things. Just getting back to sewing. Maria😊

I place a strong magnet in the throat of my sewing machine. As I sew, I slide out the pins, and they stick to the magnet. No more pins all over the place.

Thanks for the lesson on squaring those pieces. I’m new to quilting.🌸🌸

Today years old when I realize that I have to have a hot ruler!! That is the ticket! I've heard of them, but have never seen a demonstration. Keep the tools coming, Tim! And I have also never seen a threader....Its going to be an expensive Amazon shop this morning!

Thanks for the information.

Thanks for the information.

Those silicone Q-tip shape cleaners does seem like they pick up lint good but I would be concerned that the rubber tips would dry rot and end up falling off in the machine causing more problems to get out. That zipper tool is actually a tea towel holder and people are just using it as a zipper tool. That’s why so many come in a pack. I haven’t found them sold singly.

I can’t find my purple thang either! 😂

TY for this video! I love each and every item.

Nice batch of handy tools😊

I have been using a large safety pin to turn or to push through the channel in the fabric. Great tip for me was the Hot Hem Ruler

Great idea for the design “wall”. I’m live in a very small house and don’t have room for a design wall. But I can hang that dollar tree fabric backed plastic table cloth to my curtain rod were I sew in my dining room area. That would work and I never would have thought of it without your video. So thank you so much. P.S. I do see on my kitchen/dining table.

Since I started attaching my bobbins to the same color thread spool, I don’t use anything else.

Enjoying the replay ❤

Thank you sew much! Love the zip thing never have enough fingers! Clips for binding without getting stabbed. Bobbin box was tempting but just bought the silicone ring. Yes please to #2❤❤👏👏

I love sewing! More Tools the better

Before I bought my hit hemming tool, I used my homemade version. I took a manilla folder, cut it in widths from 1/4” to 5”, marked the size of each with a sharpie, then clipped them together with a binder clip. I could then hang the kit from an IKEA Skadis clip. The price is almost $0. Love your channel!

This was an amazing video !!! You showed several items that I have never seen !!! Thanks for the information!!!

Great ideas. I had one of the turning tools but never used because I didn’t know how to

Good video. You showed how to use the items which is helpful especially for beginners. My purple thang broke, but I still use it.

This was very helpful. Thank you!

I have most of these. For the tube turner, I’ve seen people use a big straw and a chopstick but I like the set. The clapper is essential for creating creases in pants,etc. Finally, the bodkin is highly underrated. It can be used to pull heavy elastic like the one you have.

My sister suggested I watch this episode. Then we got into a discussion of storing pins due to both of us having cats. But I digress. I use pins but do not sew over them. At least not anymore. My problem can be changing feet and forgetting to change the needle position! Bamo! Number 6, the pulling instruments are nifty. But I usually use a safety pin, or a tool I bought years ago. But when you showed the thing that looks like tweezers, I was stunned. So, that's what it's for! I thought it was weird tweezers for pulling out the hairs on my chinny chin chin! But, it never did work for that purpose. Thank you! Always informative and fun. Marion in Oregon 🏵
