I found a link online, showing how to make uber crepe paper. I've lost the link but here's the idea-which was not originally mine.
| Pick two colors of crepe paper, you can even use three if you can handle the pressure. |
| Adjust your machine: Highest tension and largest stitch |
| Now the easy part: sew. The streamers ruffle on their own |
| If you're not satisfied with the amount of ruffle, use your hand to slow the thread even more and increase the tension even more. |
| I stuck the crepe paper on a 'dowel' aka a wooden kitchen spoon. This made non-stop sewing a breeze. |
| Made a grand total of over 50 feet in less than 33 minutes (33 to be exact because that's how long Emma's cartoon was). |
| See how cute? |

That's so fun! :D
