This week I share some wonderful belated birthday goodies Jewells shared during a quick visit, a finished crochet charity blanket (I use this tutorial), and some progress on my husband’s Bookcase Quilt!
In this video, I’m taking some of your questions and comments and sharing what I can to hopefully help in your Raggedy Rescue adventure!
All opinions are my own and I’m always happy to learn! If you do it differently or have other advice, I’d love to hear about it.
Have questions I didn’t answer? Leave them in comments and I’ll help if I can.
As mentioned in the video, I primarily use McCall’s Crafts Pattern 8377. The pattern is out of print but you can find it on Etsy or Ebay. If you have sewing friends, it’s worth asking if they might have a copy. I’ve had several gems come my way from friends!
Other McCall’s Numbers for Raggedy Ann & Andy: 5499, 2447, 846, or 713 (10″, 15″, 20″ & 25″). The patterns include the doll pattern, clothing pattern, and instructions.
Simplicity pattern 8043* is in print and certainly less expensive in most cases, but I haven’t personally tried it yet. The clothes and dolls look almost identical to the older McCalls patterns. Simplicity owns McCalls now, but I do not know if their pattern predates the merger. If you’ve already compared the two patterns, please let me know.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions. ♥
Looking for a different video. Check out all of my Raggedy Rescues here!
I have a new page here on Sewhooked where I will be keeping a list of my favorite supplies. I listed the ones used in this video below, and you can see the full list here.
Today I’m sharing the final five charity quilts started at #bffretreat in 2022! All quilts shown will be donated to Project Linus in Albuquerque, NM, where my BFF Jewells volunteers. I also share a quick little fabric basket made to hold my clothes pins.
As you watch this, I’m on an international adventure with my eldest (adult) kid.
I’m so pleased to be able to share my FINALLY finished Star Trek Row Along quilt top from the 2019 event on Fandom in Stitches. Also in this video, I share my first two #ttmtbom blocks (photos below).
Today’s TTMT includes my first try at ruler quilting resulting in a finished charity quilt, a fantastic thrift haul from ACR, a sweet Chook pattern by Catherine Magraith, and more!
Today I share the final update for ACR Andy and announce TWO giveaways to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Talk To Me Tuesday. There is a giveaway for TTMT video makers and a separate one TTMT viewers as a thank you to everyone who has participated in this little project over the years. ♥
And now, just for fun…
