    Teddy Bears and Rainbows in Window Displays to “Sew” Our Love

    April 21, 2020 /

    Teddy Bears & Rainbows in Window Displays All across the world people are displaying Teddy Bears and rainbows in windows to offer hope and encouragement to people walking by, especially children, during this pandemic. Children are going on “bear hunts” and counting rainbows as part of scavenger hunts during walks wearing their masks. “How many rainbows and Teddy Bears can you count” has become a game, welcomed as both an activity and a distraction from the current isolation we’re all feeling.

  • Make A St. Patricks Day Coaster

    March 11, 2019 /

      Make a St. Patrick’s Day Coaster or Mug Rug for your Shamrock Shake or Green Tea and cozy up to some wool felt applique! I have a soft spot for the minor holidays like Valentine’s Day, Arbor Day, Pi Day and of course, St. Patrick’s Day. Maybe it’s because it’s March and I love green and the promise of spring. Maybe because I could eat corned beef and sauerkraut every day. Or maybe it’s just a great excuse to have a party and stitch something new. My other addiction is coffee. So I decided to design a St. Patrick’s Day coaster or Mug Rug that celebrated both. Instead of…

    Instant Pot Cover Version 1   Do you Instant Pot? Some of our favorite sewists do, and they’ve teamed up to offer their twists on our Instant Pot Cover pattern. Our Instant Pot Cover project is an instant winner! It’s popularity might be due to the fact that so many people were gifted an Instant Pot over the holidays.

Whatever the reason, we hope you join in and make yourself an Instant Pot Cover version, too! Katrina Walker,…

  • Machine Embroidery Series – Embroider Felted Wool

    December 14, 2016 /

    Embroider Felted Wool Felted Wool? or is it Wool Felt? Felted wool and wool felt are terms often used interchangeably. But they are, in fact, two different materials. The common factor is that both fabrics are made from wool. The difference comes in the way the wool is processed. Wool felt is produced by applying moisture, heat and pressure directly to wool roving, compressing the roving into a solid compact fabric. Felted wool is a woven fabric, washed in hot water and dried at high temperatures. Basically, the woven fibers shrink into each other.
