I recently posted a picture of an embroidery I had been working on (the centre of the baby quilt with the Mother Teresa quote). A few people have asked how I traced the embroidery pattern onto the fabric. My technique is dead simple, but very effective. I have tried many methods using different tracing materials and I must have spent a fortune on all kinds of expensive fabric-tracing pens. Finally I found a method that produces consistently great results and all you need is a window, some sticky tape, and a $3 pen! Those of you who follow my Facebook page will know that I am currently embroidering Tasha Noel's 'Feeding the Chicks' pattern for her, as she needs a stitched example for her Etsy shop. Tasha is one of my favourite bloggers and the designer of the Simple Life fabrics I raved about a while back. I thought I would use this as an opportunity to share my tracing method with you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STEP 1. Print out the embroidery pattern and tape it on to your window. STEP 2. Cut your fabric and tape it on top of the pattern. (I recommend that you cut the edges of your fabric with pinking scissors to minimise fraying. Especially important if the embroidery is complex and likely to take a long time! I was being lazy here.) STEP 3. Grab your miracle pen! This is a children's stationery pen called Pilot Frixion and about $3 from the supermarket. I am pretty sure they are available not only in Australia but US and Europe too. It is the best invention ever, and SO much better than any other purpose-made fabric-marking pen out there (water soluble, air dissolving, chalk, I have tried them all). It's not only dirt cheap but also marks exactly like ballpoint (crisp and clear), but apply a bit of heat and it magically disappears, never to come back! Hence the name 'Frixion' - you can rub it on paper with the eraser on the back, which generates heat and removes the marks. So after finishing the embroidery you can iron / steam it, or even better, give it a quick blast with the hair-drier, and voila, all the pen marks are gone! STEP 4. Trace the pattern onto your fabric, holding the fabric nice and taut with your other hand. STEP 5. Remove the fabric, stretch it on an embroidery hoop and stitch away. And don't forget to peel off the sticky tape from your window! :)

Although I avoid buying things with obnoxious plastic packaging, it seems to find it's way into my home anyway. I'd like to make it all go away forever, but while it's here, I'm trying to make peace with its existence. With plastic from a 'product pack' that came as a 'gift' for spending silly amounts of money on groceries, here is my small attempt of making something from nothing. The rigid plastic box made a nice little clear panel on which, with our heads inside the box, our faces could be traced upon with a permanent marker. The idea originally came from a science museum where one participant sat behind a Plexiglas divider while the other used erasable markers to trace their face. It's an activity in observation, perspective and hand/eye coordination, as well as entertaining. The kids like to put the box on their heads and turn one of their parents' faces forward and pretend to be that person. Also entertaining, and, sometimes, boarding on the insulting if one of us is in a bad mood. What to do with this plastic monstrosity that I somehow made into a keepsake? For now it sits on the shelf, available for play. There is some potential of turning it into a lampshade by covering the inside with tissue paper for an extremely low wattage bulb. I could also cut the box into panels and make into a collage for the wall or window. What do you suggest? (Wonky lines caused by wiggly boy. True to spirit, even if not exactly exact.)
