Restocking my pattern shelves
A quiet little peek into my work day :) Though I live in Perth Australia, the majority of my patterns are stored in my warehouse in the USA. I keep enough stock in Perth for my Aussie customers, and though most of it is stored safely in my pretty backyard shed, I like to have a small shelf of patterns next to my desk to make it easy to pack orders.
I've just received a big shipment of patterns from the main warehouse, so join me today as I restock my pattern shelves before putting the overflow in storage.

DIY BRAIDED RUG | make a rug from old clothing fabric scraps!
This is the best video I have ever seen yet for a SIMPLE way to make a braided RUG! THANK YOU!
I signed up for your newsletter to get the FREE pattern and I DID NOT get it!!!!
Sorry to hear that happened! We've noticed some issues with gmail users not receiving emails lately so am trying to sort that out. Feel free to send me an email at hello@megannielsen.com and i'll get you sorted :)
Will the old one be ruined or can I reuse it
Hi Maisie! Unfortunately no you won't be able to reuse it, this will break the old button. You'll need to buy a new one to reattach :) Good luck!
Me looking at the gusset pinning: WITCHCRAFT
hehe that's my favourite detail too :)
do you need a special sewing machine for this? mine doesn't seem to do the zigzag wide enough ever so I have to hand sew them.
Would thie wire work for adults?
Absolutely! This flower crown is adjustable and can be worn by anyone. The crown made in this video is one i made for myself :)
Hi Megan. I found lady on Etsy scamming people with your pattern and altering the pattern into baby bodysuit. She’s using your pictures that you posted on your website. Would be nice if you can report her. I will send you email if I can find on your website and send you and the images. I got scammed by her thinking it’s original baby pattern. 😢😢 I bought your pattern to see what she copied from you and what she didn’t. It would be nice if you can reply on my comment. Have a wonderful day.
When i started cutting out her patterns something didn’t add up so i google the images that she added to sewing instructions that’s how i found your website with same images on your website. I Emailed you please check your E-mail.
Very helpful, thank you!
Great tutorial! Thank you!
This looks so pretty, thank you.
Love this tutorial ❤ Thank you!!
So glad you found it helpful! xo
Nice instructions well explained and demonstrsted. I will be trying out these tips. ❤
Love this! Thank you so much for the tutorial!
Thank you for the terrific video!
You are so welcome! So glad you found it helpful :)
I love to do this with corduroy!
My button would not separate and the back just got stripped by repeated attempts.
Wow
Lovely, thank u for make it easy for everyone who love this type of art❤
Totally agree with you about Gilmore Girls
But what if the rod on the screw keeps bending to the side? I've had this happen with three of them ;-;
Hey Megan, I have an Elna 3003, do you know what year that came out? I think it might be 1981, but not sure. I bought it second hand but still learning to set it up!
Thank you for your free resources, I really appreciate it. What's the shipping fee indicated, are these digital or printed? Because if they are printed, my country is in the middle of nowhere, shipping fee would be millions🥹 thank you again❤
Hi! These are digital so there is no shipping fee :)
That’s fantastic. Will it work in principle, making a square rug for our campervan? Xx
Thank you so much - I wanted to change the color and you showed me how easy it is 🤗
Thank you, what if the button hole is not in good shape? I bought some used jeans and it seems like the button went through the hole, leaving a hole way too big. Should I just put a patch inside so that the button has something to attach to?
Hi Lola! That is a frustrating situation! My strategy would be to do as you described - adding an interfaced patch to the inside to strengthen the waistband and provide something for the new button to attach to. Good luck!
Growing up, we were too poor to own a sewing machine so we stitched the rug together by hand. That was tough!!
If someone doesn't have a sewing machine, can the braids be hand sewn together fairly easily? Also, do you have a video on how to make the rug more elongated (oval shaped)?
I have a related but very specific question. I want to make a set of buttons for a pair of jeans I am having made to measure. I want to make the buttons out of silver. I'm a bench jeweler so forming the metal isn't a problem, but I don't know what winds up holding the front and back together. You mention a plastic part. Is that located in the shaft in the front piece? My initial thought to just make silver fronts compatible with standard backs. Any guidance you can provide would be most welcome. Thanks for the video.
I’m studying❤ 😊
Oh shoot, I must have cut my pockets wrong
Why did the center raise up when I did this?
Thank you! So well done!!
Awesome thanks ❤😊
Hi! Question, does removing the button damage the button? In wondering if 8 can preserve it for other jeans
Thank you! I didn't know why my belly button was irritated and painful until I felt the edge of the inside button which was extremely sharp! I was going to try to sew a patch over it and then decided to check RUclips. Now I will just remove and replace with a sewn on button on ALL my Lee jeans. Thank you again!
Thanks for the great pattern. Since I'm a beginner, there's something I'm not clear: For the first step, you place one gusset over the front RST and sew. However, the edges of the gusset and the front are different: one curves downward, the other curves upward, as can be seen at 1:35. Is it alright?
Hej Megan. Is this machine capable of sewing in jeans? Hard and thick fabric?
My button keeps bending instead of getting tacked in when I hammer, any advice?
I am so disappointed! My friend and I did everthing you said and showed and the zigzag stitch on our machines don't seem to be wide enough to catch the edge of the baids so there are a lot of gaps. When we kept going anyway it cupped badly once we got near the placemat size. We've tried on different machines and just can't get it to work. We did support the rug as directed . Help! What kind of machine or width of stitch do we need?
0:17 0:18
Can i sew this by hand ? Intead of using a machine.
Aftee you remove the metal button can you put it together again?
I am searching the pattern but they are not free

How can you attach the rug if you dont have a sewing machine ?
Brilliant video.. simple and clear instructions Thank you
Can these be washed.
Do these fabric baskets fray a lot though?
love your peg board
I can’t wait to try this, thank you!
