  I have watched your tutorials on how to sew these several times and each time I learn something new and come away with a better understanding. I know it probably feels like you have shown this often enough but speaking for myself, I like watching the process again because I need it to help it stick in my brain and there’s always something new that comes up.

  As you were making lines and pinning I was thinking that precision has its place in all stitching. &nbsp;I measure when needed, I press with my iron a lot and I pin and baste. &nbsp;I think it comes from my garment sewing days. &nbsp;But I really enjoy free form stitching as well. I&apos;d like to think that I&apos;m good at going with the flow too. &nbsp; There is a quote that is attributed to Picasso and it says, learn the rules like a pro so you can break them like an artist. <br> I think that applies to technique as well.

  Freedom Friday is such a perfect name for these! Kudos to the person who gave you the idea. I have now, thanks to you, made a number of rice bags, and I like the idea of trying this one with the turned edges and whip stitch. Nice reminder video, nice new idea, nice nice nice. :-) Thanks!

  I&apos;m making my first rice bag, based on your previous video. Ive mired myself down in the fancy stiching of the outside. But soon I&apos;ll be onto the inside. Thanks for the new ideas❤
