Tysm! I'm making a corset for the first time and have never worked with boning or eyelets and this tutorial helped alot and was really easy to understand!

If yall are wondering, the corset is part of a Renaissance fair outfit I'm making! My character is a tiger witch :3

Despite what some people say, your demo was excellent, as there are many type of eyelets & grommets that are available, & the instructions often don't describe the different parts!

This helped so much. I was trying to finish up a top and I had never done eyelets before. Thanks so much.

Worked great, thanks. I thought I had to cut a circular hole, but a tiny cross worked just fine. Eyelets came out perfectly after a good, strong whack with the hammer.

let me ask you...why you didn't show the punching process of the eyelet in the video????

Thank you miss (or mrs) pincushion for saving me plentiful amounts of time and effort, my show has benefitted greatly from this

I had been trying to do with for hours and couldn’t figure it out! Your video has been the only one to help me! Thank you for this

The most critical step and moments of the process of adding an eyelet - hammering they eyelet pieces together - she skips! I want to see how to do that, whether it's hard or easy, more risky than guaranteed. She's the professional and expert here - how does SHE manage that most critical part? If she can't do it without a mess, I doubt I can. Sheesh.

Your nails are so pretty!! Thanks for the demo, it clarified everything I wasn’t sure about as someone who is new to sewing and hardware

I’m super impressed.
Experienced to hell and back.

I found a whole bunch of eyelets at frenchys (thrift store) there’s flowers, fruit, animals and just normal but different colours. They are so pretty but I didn’t know how to put them in lol thank you for this!

Saw some comments mentioning a fabric punch. If you are using reinforced material a drill and bit work great. Adjustable holes that are the same size every time.

The eyelets that came with my sewology snap pliers from hobby lobby only have one side. Everytime I attempt to tighten them, they crumble in weird and ugly ways. You perfectly explained the eyelets you're using, but I was wondering if you have advice or help for eyelets with no back piece. I've learned so much from watching you already but there is always more I need to learn. Thanks!😊🙏

This is the highest quality video I have ever seen.

Thank you, it worked for me, I did the hammering and it came out fine.

[litolocofish]

[philipbristow]

I use a hand held paper punch for holes it takes 2 seconds perfect holes every time.

I'm pounding away on my eyelet and it's not closing, so I watch this video and the only part you don't show is the hammering??? I mean the rest of the directions with placement are right on my package! I don't need that part! what is even the point of this.
