 Okay, I'm back cough drop in my mouth All right, let's do this one first. We're gonna sew in a start here in the center about between the two inside flaps I'm gonna do about Five eighths of an inch seam half and a half an inch seam somewhere in there and pull my pinout before I get to the corner Stop with my needle down Near the corner about a you know about a half an inch away from the edge of the fabric and turn Take that next pin out. I'm pushing the edges of the pockets and flaps down So I can make sure that they get sewn down flat and nothing gets sewn down curled and pukery unevenness going on down here, so I'm gonna Just give it a little bit of a trim so I can see what I'm doing got the next pin Don't be in a rush. Take your time This is the one with the small pocket in it. So I may have to go a little closer to the edge than I'd like There's a lot of layers of fabric here because we've got all of the inside pockets. We've got the outside pocket So we're gonna go slow take out the pin Up to the camera again Okay, so the one thing we want to do before we do any cutting or trimming is making sure we have you know a decent Seam it doesn't have to be perfect This one certainly isn't but you don't want to have missed any parts or missed the fabric or sona pucker and it or anything like that And you can see we have lots of trimming to do once we do the trimming. It's gonna look beautiful So let's do the next one this one we're gonna do from the outside in Not that it really matters actually. I think I like doing it from the other side. Let's do that one Let's do that Pin removal turn the corner always turn the corner with your needle in the down position so you don't lose your place And end up with a big hole in your stitching You want nice long dress makers pins for working with these thick fabrics like the denim and the canvas And no not all sewing pins are made the same Before one of you even asked me that So look for a nice long pin. These are about an inch and a half long and they're actually probably a little short It would be nicer to have one that's two inches. So but these are these work But some of them are really tiny. So don't pick those Don't be afraid either of having to do some seam ripping Shoot we all have to seam rip every now and then that's just pulling out the stitches when you've sewn in the wrong place Or you've sewn something There's a special little tool for that. That's not bad either Cool. I didn't mean to do that Whoops, that's where all my little press extra presser feet are kept now, you know, and we're not gonna even get into what all these are for because That will just confuse you all There's presser feet for just about everything. I was trying to grab it this way. This is the hand. I have some numbness in so I am not surprised. I missed that All right So now we need to trim away some of this stiffener and even up some of our edges a bit So we're gonna pull our fabric back And we're gonna just get the scissors in here and trim some of this white stuff away Now if you have applique scissors and you know what those are of course use them and I do have them But I don't feel like getting them out right now But you don't have to have them just pull the front and back fabric back hold it down And then run your scissors along The edge and cut that off next one Do this all the way around before you do any other trimming because it'll be easier Now you could do the trimming All the trimming of the stiffener and the fabric and then you could If you know how to do Like um zigzag on your machine you could zigzag around the edge. You could add some trim around the edge Like I said, you could cut little slits in that In the fabric extra fabric just a little slits that way to to the stitching not over the stitching And then wash it and the whole thing is gonna fray like crazy But it might be a great look Will be a great look It's the same way I do the denim aprons and I show I show the how to do that and I Show some tips and tricks on how to do that in the denim apron video So you really should go wash watch it before you try it because You if you don't do it right it could really screw it up and you're gonna probably clog up your washing machine All right, so now we have that that's not bad, but we have some sections like this So I want to trim those up. I really didn't cut these already square I'm gonna blame it on the full moon. I did um use Sharpie to Mark my pattern pieces out and I don't mind if a little bit of it shows but some of it's not attractive So we're gonna cut The unattractive bits off and we're just kind of squaring it up. Look at that Just need some rivets All right, I mean rivets eyelets. Holy cow. Let's do this one Then we'll get the eyelets out. Whoo I'm going to make some more of the plain canvas ones today And by the time that you all see this video All of them will be in my Etsy shop Listed for sale There'll be a limited number of them First come first serve I'll do hope you all try making them and I hope that you share what you make I would like to see the fabric And things that you make out of them and how you decorate them These denim ones would take paint very well just like the canvas um And you could denim comes in lots of different colors if you're going to buy new denim Sorry above the camera again to do this with Um It comes in a natural color like the canvas else comes in, you know other colors too Dark colors light colors. So look at your fabric store and see what they have We have to do the same thing and we're going to even up Some of our edges. I don't want them to be perfect if I wanted it to be perfect. I wouldn't leave them raw but I don't want it to be too sloppy First I'm going to Do it around the outside and everything up I do have a pair of scissors that are specifically for cutting denim and they're made for cutting Um, thick multiple layers of thick fabric. So Um, I just I'm lazy about getting them out So if you're going to do a lot of this you might want to invest in a pair of them That I think that's really cute. All right, so I'm going to reset the table a little bit And I'm going to get my eyelets out and I'll be right back Okay, so to prevent what happened last time where we had one eyelet Come out crooked We're going to line up our outer edge And then I'm going to find out where the center fold is And I'm going to mark It with a pin At each end and I'm going to open it up Straighten out the pin if needed. I know the pin head is Where I need it to be All right So I'm going to I know that point The straight line between the two pin heads is where the center is Move this up a little bit. So there you go So I know along this edge of the ruler is where the center is and that's where I need all of my marks and holes to be So I'm going to do one inch In from the top and I'm going to mark my mark right on that straight line And then we're going to do Slide the ruler just a little bit and do one inch from the bottom And then we're going to do halfway between those two points So it's about Here and that's where we want our three eyelets to be So let's mark the other one before we do any eyelet setting ouch I need a pin cushion That's like that fifth time today. I've poked myself with my pin my own pins I've got pin cushions around here somewhere. I don't know. I put them away. I don't know where the away place is It's a way away. I don't know. I don't know I know I didn't purge them that I know for sure Okay, so we're going to line our ruler up again. We're going to mark You may have to move your pins around There we go mark An inch from the top about an inch from the bottom And then halfway between the two About there doesn't have to be perfect, but We don't want it to be all wonky At least at least if they're in a straight line. All right So once you have that done, um, I like to leave the pins in Um to the very top So that when I'm punching my holes with my crocodile If I lose track of the little marks I can at least see the pins It just helps me keep it straight So I just move the pin so that I can punch the hole without hitting the pin I'm going to line it up in my crocodile and I'm going to use the larger of the two hole punchers To punch right over the black dot a little of the black dot and A little bit to the side To just to enlarge the hole Okay, so I'm going to do the same thing to the center hole You basically want to do a cluster of like three punches Before you take any of your mark pins out Make sure that your eyelets will fit so I use the dritz large It just says large eyelets On the package And you can get the package that has the setting tools in it. I already have them So I didn't get that but you can get them that way or you can just get them like this So I want to make sure that my eyelet is going to fit in that hole that I made And it fits in that one good I'll check each one of the holes This one I think needs another punch that one. I don't think it's big enough I don't think it's big enough If you don't have a hole puncher that you can do this with It's tough because you have to get in there with a little pair of scissors Which is a pain in the neck. Trust me. I've done it Okay, now that I know my eyelets fit and they're all straight in a row Not that if they weren't straight I could do much about it because I couldn't Do much about it at this point. I'd be screwed I need to get the other half of the eyelet on here Get my little setting Bits out Have a bunch of these in different sizes for different sized eyelets Put the black piece on the bottom the steel piece on the top And you might need to give it an extra, you know Bit of hammering to get it to attach through all those thick layers of fabric Things are falling All right, look at that. It's so cute. See this is what happens. I'm gonna have trouble keeping it not keeping it It is going to be in my anti-shopper swear Holy moly, it's going to be a problem I can't keep keeping journals that I make. I don't have enough room. Okay So the first thing we have to do is move our pins So that we have our pin heads for a guide But the little end of the pin is not underneath where I need to punch with the crocodile Because punching through the pin would not be good. All right If you happen to have leather punches Um in different sizes circle shaped ones then that would work for this I do have them actually. I just refound them the other day When I was cleaning and purging Some stuff filling mystery boxes I did not purge them. I kept them because I love those things and I was Looking for them in my metal snips the other day and I found both of them when I was cleaning. Yay So there we go Take our pins out. I'm pretty sure those are going to be big enough Find some more eyelets and then we're done. Whoo. I should really organize this box better But you know what? I'm not going to Just I kind of like digging in the box Need another short one Oh TV turned itself on I'll be right back. Okay. I'm going to edit that little bit out But what you guys aren't going to hear who are watching the videos my tv was on pause and it turned itself on it was decided I guess Okay, I had to go pause and turn something off But here we're going to Finish our other denim Notebook cover Fit all our eyelets in our holes Please take all caution when working with eyelets setting that you Don't whack your fingers With the hammer I have this little small hammer that was given to me by my father-in-law who's no longer with us And I love this hammer. I say that I just whack myself with it. All right There we go. How cute is that? That is so cute So you definitely could go all the way around the edge and you could cut slits in it up to the stitching You could even do this part of the pocket here and then toss the whole thing in the washer and the whole It's going to unravel. I'm not going to do that But you definitely could but here they are. They're ready to go They'll be listed in my etsy shop shortly and I hope it gives you some ideas of what you can do with old blue jeans watch the other video and have some fun and Let me know if you have any questions comments or concerns put something down it below and I do we'll get back to them ASAP I promise and uh, don't forget the most important thing Go out and have a great day.
