San Francisco Renegade Craft Fair 2008, Thread Heads

What a FULL HOUSE!!! lolls

"Get your DIY here...we got your fairy wings" God damn it brother you're as funny in your delivery as always. Scary that I feel I'm watching old skits of myself when I watch you in your new skits. That Renegade Fair looked awesome, let me know when they come to LA.

Haha, it took me a minute to remember why you'd have the "okaaaay" bubble.

I LOVE Corinne's green skirt in the beginning.
And I might try making ties into wallets..hm.

Great episode !   I am so jealous of all these fairs because I live in eastern Canada and there are not a whole lot of them.  Oh well...

On another topic, could you do an episode about sewing sequins and embellishing clothes ?

Thanks, you guys rock, as always !!!

hey threadbanger should really devote some more time to guy diy fashion. i sit and watch your episodes every week but don't have any new ideas to do?

haha "ooooooookay", thats for not hearing complains right :P

why is there nothing this awsome in brisbane australia all we have are the quilting and craft shows that are all about expancive fabrics and tools... i want diy and recycling in brisbane. is there a way to get something like this where i live i love sewing i would help teach... lol well teach what not to do.
anyway great episode you guys are always the best and loved the tie necklace 

I am needing major Sewing Help Because Im missing A bunch of stuff and I have disrespected my sewing machine And have no idea What to do with it, I am a little afraid of sucking and  ruining everything. (perfectionist.)
Love you Guys.

cool! love the jackets the people in the band were wearing. i have been looking every where for one like that any ideas as to where i could buy one or how i could possibly make one?

that was a pretty kewl episode, the fair looked like a lot of fun, i really wish i stil lived in america...i didn't know about these fairs wen i lived ther! ...and i don't think ireland has any kind of big craft fairs...or many places to buy handmade for that matter....

keep rocking threadbanger!
luv ash***

thanks for the tip ivy frozen!

Sometimes the videos on the site don't want to work for my compy either, Rose.  I usually watch them on youtube then, which seems to work better.

& the guy who made the hat was so fun =)  another great video from you guys. 

lol i've had a guy who was 5 years older than me ask what a casette tape is. i'm only 15!! i think i should blame my dad for giving me petshop boys casette tapes ahahahaha~

I LOVE LOVE LOVED THE FAIR!!!! You guys totally rock!
I think we'll put the tote project on the Janome site and link to that epi.
All you threadhead peeps rock!

Hmmm I've been letting it load up completely then playing, letting it load up half way and then playing it but I still haven't seen the episode because it stops and says 'replay' after 6 seconds. Can someone suggest something? thanks.

Haha, love the graphic emphasis on "Ooookay." Way to disuade anymore dumb controversies!

Nice work on this ep! :D

hmm.... It seems like C said "OK" in the beginning section! :D

hahahahahaha

I love this episode! The stuff people made was so cool. 
teehee.. I LOVE the postcard machine!!!

Thats so cool that you had all those little kids sewing. Looked like the next generation of Threadheads to me.
:)
Aaahhhh.....the future is bright !

that sucks,my boyfriend and I were going to head out there but we never made it. Looked like you guys had fun ! 

good idea...noted
-rob

That looked like so much fun!  Maybe in the future, Janome could giveaway a trip to all these awesome craftfairs across the country.

its so cool you and Janome got together to do renegade this year.
I talked to Rob and put my name in the raffle for the sewing machine but didnt win.Looks like i'll be buying my Janome instead.

This episode inspired me to start going to these types of shows and selling my crafts. I also make stuff out of ties and figure If she can do it , I can do it :) 
Thanks Threadbanger for always getting my gears turning.

whats a cassette tape !!!! 
Soon they'll be asking what a CD looked like.
I'm getting old :(

Can you teach us how to make a hat like the marching band guy playing the violin had on with the big speaker. That was pretty bad ass.

Hey guys!  Great episode!  Unfortunately I live on the East Coast!  But after seeing Rob's vest, it made me remember how awful a time I have trying to find a sweet vest to fit me!!  So I was wondering if you guys could do a tutorial on a nice fitted vest (for men) to share with us all? I'm a pretty skinny guy, and all the vests I find have too large of arm openings and/or look like they're just hanging on me!  It stinks!  (I also like the look of 'shrunken vests' which is even more hard for me to find--haha.)

I'm also moving to the amazing (and expensive!!) city of Tokyo, so being able to bring some homemade clothing with me would definitely help defray costs of clothing!!!  (plus I could probably find some awesome fabric there to make more!)

Oh and also, this doesn't necessarily need to be a tutorial (or it could be...), but how does one go about taking a baggy/slightly bigger tee shirt and make it fit better?  I have a whole lot of tee's hanging around that I purchased without trying on, then washed hoping they'd shrink, but didn't.  I'd love to be able to wear them still!  So anyway, thank you!

aw man, i wanted to go there so bad! but i had to work =( but next time! anyway, yeah... the "okaaaay" bubble was funny. you guys are soo cute! i love threadbanger forever!

Great episode...very inspiring!!

I love the okaaaaay speech bubble. XD You tell em.

lol i totally love how you emphasized the oookk! now people wont think you said gay again.. lol, thats soo awesome.

once again an awesome episode. I wish such festivals were in my area. The closest thing I've gone to was the "art of Being Green' festival in Lanark Ontario where it was 60% compaies for renewable energy and building materials.

Dude. . . I soo wish I coulda went to that. That looks so frikkin' cool!! I can't wait until I move back to the states.

Hey Everyone... Once you hit the play button the video starts to load. We understand that it takes a little time for it to load, so hit pause and wait a few minutes and then you can watch the full video. We're working on getting this slowness SPED up! Thanks for being patient!

Hey guys, thanks for featuring my work! I'm thrilled.

I laughed SO HARD when the ok bubble came up!  Silly people thinking you said gay.

I loved the 'ookkkaaayy' speech bubble! That was great. Another funny intro is a plus, too. I loved seeing some of the kids from the forums, and it was so cool you guys had sewing machines and fabric everywhere for people to sew with. Awesome!

oookkkkaaaaayyyy... this is why I love you guys, you know how to poke fun at yourself  

Works fine for me,oooookkkkkaaaaaayyyy.
Bless you Corine(and you too Rob)

it's stops playing after 5 secs... any advice?

Hey Elizabeth,

Than you for the comment, the video is playing fine for me.

Try pausing the video and letting it load about half way, that should fix the problem.

this is stopping rightr when i see glass onion then says replay
