[elfynlied]

oh wwow, the lacy petal makes d pillow look expensive. am so buying a sewing machine!

[autumnjrain]

OMG! Just saw my first ThreadBanger Vid., sexy bedroom, & the comment abt boycotting Youtube cuz of commercials, & came here only to encounter my one most-hated commercial; the Morman one (the length, is annoying, not the message) LOL.

[amboka2001]

wow!! with the left over materials i 've got i willgive it a go, the pillow you just made is so expensive in the shops..thanks for a good money saver..DIY rules!!!

[ilovecandy1393]

I want to make roses like that for my prom dress? Can I do that?

[Christopherslady]

I think I'm in love...thanks soooooo much!!!

[alinabird]

nice

[MsHannahdearie]

that sofa is the ugliest color ever

[irma11525]

I cannot wait until I graduate from high school, go to collage then get my own apartment so I can make my house AMAZING with everything DIY :)

[michelle161082]

she is my hero dam, i love tis video

[nimoisansvous]

I miss her so much!

[boriswith30r15]

Yay DIY! I have such A.D.D when it comes to my crafts. I've just become a collector of craft supplies. lol! I really need to get some ambition in sticking to my guns and finishing something. There should be a craft-buddy website that like, hooks you up with someone else interested in the same crafts-someone to correspond with on your progress, ask advice, etc. I'm rambling. :P

I was wondering if you made that dress yourself... it is super adorable!

[FordQueen]

im sure she did, you can buy pre-smocked fabric from joanns and just sew the back and you got a dress!

[Tsukiko811]

i would love if they made a store(online) cuz i can never make anything right =P

[lessupastar]

Love this idea! I am from the East Village and I must say there are lots of thread heads out here. Thanks for all your excellent ideas and for taking the old stuff and sewing new life back into it.. We can save the earth and preserve some old traditions. You are all so inspiring and amazing! Keep up the good work!

[chedarthehamster]

u can make a pillow that has 2 dif side/colors on it ,like take 2 an old ts, and rip and sew in to a pillow with dif color (one t on 1 side the other on... the other side). i still have "decor add" but i dont have as many pillows!

p.s. sry if this post made no cents(lol).

[fabfashionista13]

they should have cut the flower strip en bias so that it would look fuller just like the valentino stuff did

[yokoshiro]

Ooooh, love the Rose idea for the pillow, how much fabric would I need if I want the whole pillow front to be a rose instead of having some of the other fabric show through?

[shelly1bell]

OMG i looove the 2 stars on your wrist sooo cute

~katiebelleJ yes im on my sisters site

[hucklebun]

I wish more time had been spent really showing us the NY Nest... The film was hard to follow, choppy, bouncy...I didn't really know what I was looking at...or if I saw something I liked, the film jumped to something else before I could get a really good view or figure out how I could duplicate that look at home. Much more time was spent on the rooftop view.  That's something I can't ever replicate...don't waste my time, please. Show me info of value instead.

[Malakaiea]

were do u get that cool black and white fabric please tell us!!!!

[saltwaterlassie]

I wish it were easier to find all the Decor It Yourself episodes, it'd be the sweetest thing if you guys could have a big playlist on the Threadbangers page, or a seperate profile.

Love the flower idea.. :]

[IndieGreenDesigner]

I love it, I love it!

[funkynonnie]

I really loved this video! It is my fave one! Thank you Meg, you really made my day!

[elisiabattell]

Wow. that looks amazing. :] I'm definitely going to try it out!

[adriandoher]

pretty pillow!

and the apartment was really cool

[ThePavin]

Maybe Decor it yourself should be a seperate show from threadbangers? so to continue the cloth diy as well as home decor

[petitangegris]

how long did it take you to sew the flower... it looked like it took a really long time!!

ooh i know how to make teeny tiny roses out of ribbon and thread!! i should make a video!

great video by the way!

K

[wingnut3005]

Yes yes make a video that would be cool. I think I could figure it out with some trial and error, but it is always super helpful to see a tutorial.

[x1MissWorld1x]

the pillow is so pretty! thanks Megan! you are doing a super great job :D

[dream1flower]

thank you for great ideas !

its endless.

:)

[ThreadBanger]

Thank you guys all so much for your support, views, comments and love over the last 20 weeks. I love making this show each week for you, and you make it even better by showing such love on here. Thank you.

Here's to 20 more weeks!

xo, Meg

[michaeltlayne]

Hand sewing oh GOD!!!!! I'm scared!

I love your pillows!

Did everyone notice the cute meow tucked up next to the pillow? Those are my favorite pillows but they tend to run when you lie on them.

[IndieGreenDesigner]

I hear a Skid Row 'Youth Gone Wild' beat under there. Who is this Wilie Dictionary? He is ridiculously talented. Rock on Threadbanger.

[ThreadBanger]

Yes! The beat was totally Skid Row inspired. Good ear.

[odlelady]

It would be a cushier pillow with a different stuffing. Plus, putting old fabric inside is a waste of the perfectly good fabric!  Like, maybe use an old pillow's insides for this, if you don't want to buy a bag of fiberfill.

[IndieGreenDesigner]

but she said she had MOUNDS, clearly showing she has just too much. so instead of throwing it away, Meg used it. bravo for the recycling!

[shakegroove1]

yeah pollyfreklz this show is not for you. Why dont you go watch HSN Im sure you will find something mass produced and un-original.

good luck. The pillow is a great idea!

[jerseehippee]

sooo cute!!

[ThreadBanger]

Thanks JerseeHippee!

[prettypistol419]

maybe we dont buy one cause this show is called DIY you idiot!!

[catycan]

That's really nice, it's too slow for me coz i'm lazy, but it's really inspiring. Btw, you guys make such a cute couple!!

[tsims2006]

What's up with the super-speedy apartment tour. I couldn't even see what it looked like. Why bother showing it if you can't even slow it down long enough to see it?! What a joke.

[groceryfiend]

i have to agree in a less angry way. it SHOULD be slowed down a bit so we can actually see differences and the changes

[PollyFreklz]

i think the pillow is pretty crap..and the quality should be really bad as well, so why dont you people just buy one? a real nice funky pillow....

[mndlssprincess]

ummm there's a reason why it's called DIY!!! gosh the ignorance!!!

[kamelotfan23]

Maybe it would be crap if YOU made it, and of horrible quality, but some of us can sew, thank you, and can do a much better job than some korean kid working in a sweatshop churning out hundreds of overpriced look-alike pillows a day for some major retailer!!!

[IndieGreenDesigner]

WORD!!!

[w00ts0rbet]

I love the rose pillow project! :D

[Janefly]

The pillow she made was really great and simple, and Barret has great coffee. I love bustelo.

[Araknophobik]

i love that pillow at 0:18

howd you do that?

lol

[icaj19]

freeky i decided im going to use the fabric from an old skirt and make a pillow today, then i watch this vid.

awsome :)

[faigamel]

really? some co incidences like that are also happenning to me.. sometimes I wonder if it's magic, or de javu, a sign or something magical.. but I believe that it's just a co incidence

[ThreadBanger]

it think we're just all connected, icaj19 and faigamel.

xox, meg

[Minute2Dawn]

I think Meg's rosette pillow is 100 times more kick-S than the Valentino's bag.

And Barret is very very cute. : )

[ThreadBanger]

Okay Minute2daw, you just made my whole week! Valentino eat your heart out!

Blushing, Meg

P.S. Agreed. Barret is a cutie patootie:)

[starlightcheese]

you could apply the flower aspect to other things instead of pillows . . . like a smaller flower on a sweater or jacket . . .

[aikochan86]

Sweet how-to! Thanks! :)

[HipHome]

Runway to real way for your home.

[hippieQUEENBEE]

the pillow seems very time consuming, but it's very cute! =]

[Matticus6288]

Commenting is very time consuming :P

[MousketeerMaiden]

wow xD

[NalaniProductions]

that pillow is freakin cool!!!!

I shouls sell some at our craft faire.

[Kiki13]

cte dress meg i love the pillow idea

[megan9876222]

I love this craft! Thank-You for the very amazing ideas! You all are VERY creative and good at making ideas! Keep making GREAT ideas!

You rock! -Megan

[ThreadBanger]

From one Megan to another-THANK YOU!

xo, MegAN

[bryanitous]

This was great. I love taking inspiration from high fashion designers.

[Alicexhollywood]

very awesome.

[saphyreXice]

I like the rose idea, But I think it may be cool to not stop at one rose but do a longer strip and make the whole side a rose :)

[GoodGoodThings]

Killer pillow! Great apartment, Barret!

[venividibitchy]

Comb your hair.

[ThreadBanger]

um, no thank you.

-meg

[sporks21]

comb your face.

[HipHome]

hahaha. comb your face.

[chcogirl]

this is a super good idea XD

[IndieGreenDesigner]

Design ADD, ha. I love that. That rose is so cool. And Barret's place is really done well.

[yaylorr]

1:54...Was that a dog lying their??

[TehDukeness]

Yeah. That was a dog.

[otay5]

yeah.

she has a dog.

[ThreadBanger]

the best dog ever. xo, meg

[jeanblaaa]

yea

[ThreadBanger]

Yes indeed, it is little Gracie Strudel laying by the eyelet lace pillow. She's my favorite.

xo, Meg

[RafaHatesU]

i love the idea!!!!if you have alot of time on ur hands you can also make bedding right? or even clothing

[ThreadBanger]

ooh, yes. Several roses clumped together would look so lovely on a duvet. Good idea!

xo, Meg

[VeiledGlory]

To help with rose-making: Sew some gathering stitches along the one side. Basically, set the machine to a looong stitch length and run two rows of stitching along one edge, parallel. Do not back stitch. Pull opposite ends of the thread tails to gather. Then tack down the rose. It will come out more ruffle-ly.

[GoodGoodThings]

Oh my goodness, those petal pillows are soooo beautiful!

[rorose132]

i love the rose idea, but i think i'd like it a lot more if it covered one entire side, rather than just being randomly there in the middle.

[GoodGoodThings]

Than you should definitely do it that way when you do it yourself! Good call.

[rorose132]

good plan... guess this means i'm going to have to learn to sew... again.. :)

[BrooklynHomies]

haha. so true!

[groceryfiend]

yeah i think it would be cooler on the whole side but at least now we know HOW it's done. thank god for threadbanger!

[GoodGoodThings]

thank god for threadbanger!

[MarthaFuckingStewart]

YAY 20 episodes!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cupOpudding]
