    Paper Pieced Pumpkin Table Runner for Fall Decor

    October 7, 2019 /

    Paper Pieced Pumpkin Table Runner by Vicki Holloway Create a paper pieced pumpkin table runner to display before Halloween and beyond! This table runner will take your decor into Thanksgiving with its pumpkin blocks and beautiful quilting. For this paper pieced pumpkin table runner, we’re repurposing the Apple Mug Rug pattern previously published and using different colored fabrics to turn the apple into a pumpkin.

  • Halloween Decor: Fun Threads to Use to Spook & Delight

    October 1, 2019 /

    Happy Halloween…Decor, that is! Halloween decor is so much fun to make and display. All bets are off when it comes to embellishments, too. The more the better! Add some fun effects to your Halloween decor with thread that glows, reflects, sparkles and pops! The pillow above features several different thread types, and YES it glows, too! Let it Glow Sulky Glowy thread is my first choice for Halloween decor projects. There’s no better time to create glow-in-the-dark wall hangings, table runners, quilts and the like. Some embroidery designs are even digitized specifically for glow-in-the-dark thread, such as the Halloween Glow – Jack o’ Lantern by Urban Threads pictured below.…

    Halloween Table Runner by Ellen March Special Ruler Creating a Halloween table runner with pieced circles is easy with the help of specialty rulers. These rulers are fantastic tools for so many piecing projects, and this table runner is a great primer for using the rulers and learning the best ways to cut and sew the pieces together. I chose to create large circles in order to have a great embroidery canvas to play with. A few pins are all you need, along with a patient hand to place and replace the concave pieces as you sew. The trick is to NOT stretch either piece during construction. These pieces get…

  • Memorial Day Projects & Sentiments to Honor Fallen Heroes

    May 22, 2019 /

    This weekend we remember the heroes who gave their lives to protect our freedom with Memorial Day projects. To show our love and respect, we bring out our American flags and salute those who have gone before us. Many of us host gatherings to celebrate America. A veritable pre-fourth-of-July, with hot dogs, watermelon and maybe even some fireworks. Some of us decorate with red, white and blue. And of course we need some homemade quilted treasures to sprinkle throughout the house. It’s a great time to be with loved ones and reflect on sacrifices that have been made and are made every day that allow us to live our lives…
