~ ~ Ruches et Stuff: Pippa et Rascal-A Softie modèle gratuit! OK, I've failed. I can't figure out where to upload a pdf pattern so that you can all download it without having to sign up for something! Sooo.....we're just going to enjoy the pattern here on the blog for now until I get that set up. Here it is! I did as you all suggested and combined the two prototype foxes to make a perfect little fox, who I've name "Pippa" (no, not after that Pippa). As I was making them, I developed little personalities for them in my mind. (OK. Of course, "Rascal" can be a "Regina" and "Pippa" could be a "Peter", just choose a different fabric and it can be for a boy or girl! You could even make your own felt bows or bow ties for them. :o) Here's the how-to: · Print the pattern pieces at the bottom of the post and use them to cut out the instructed amount of pieces from your choice of fabric. · Place the felt pieces on desired areas and sew on with matching thread (be sure to match up the tail stripes!). · Turn right side out and press. · Turn right side out. All done!

Seams Inspired: Fabricate It Friday! I wanted to sew yesterday, and after the yard work and some house cleaning, okay...very little house cleaning :o), I did sew. I'm working on my daughter's costume. We're building on a dress we already have to create Sparkle Girl, someone from my daughter's imagination. The skirt is made with strips of tulle that are cinched around a piece of ribbon. This is an easy and very forgiving project that goes together quickly. Here's what you'll need: Scissors or Rotary CutterI highly recommend the rotary cutter. Instructions: Take the ribbon and wrap a length of it around the child's waist. your flat surface.Place the waist ribbon you measured and knotted earlier over the tulle strip a few inches down from the fold. That's it! Feel free to comment or ask questions.

Sewing 101-Lesson 1: Supplies and Basic Envelope Pillow I love to sew. People tell me all the time that they would love to learn to sew and I thought it would be a fun series for the blog. Each Friday, I will post some sewing tips, as well as a simple project that you can work on to try out your new skills. I am designing the series so that each lesson will build on each other. I'm a total cheap-skate, but if you're going to sew, you're going to need a few supplies. This isn't an ad for any company, these are just products I like. Lesson 1: Supplies You need a good sharp pair of scissors. I use these more often than I'd like to admit. I personally am not a fan of chalk (unless I'm sewing on black and have no other option). You'll use this to measure hems and to make sure that you are putting a pattern in the correct spot. Everything you need to know about fabric is found on the end of the bolt. 1. When it comes to machines, you get what you pay for. Tomato pin-cushins are quaint, but I prefer these magnetic ones. 2. thread
