My friend, EmiShimosato(http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=13887) gave me an idea to make a pincushion with Sarubobo. So I made them! It's very small and simple pattern. I could make one in less than one hour. So I decided to make a D.I.Y. kit for the pincushion. I wrote a step-by-step tutorial with illustrations. My advantage should be hand stitching so I wanted to write it by my hand (* v *)! And the pattern is also handwritten and hand cut by me! I'm really enjoying to make this kit. It's fun to think the matching of the fabrics, thread and the button. Thank you very much for EmiShimosato and everyone who gave me a comment for my sarubobo!

Red Velvet with big rhinestone button and embroidery
Last Saturday and Sunday (March 10 & 11th), Staci and I had a successful weekend at the Spring Sugar Plum Bazaar. We worked very hard, before (adding new inventory) and during (setting up/sales) the Bazaar. I used the square app for the first time! Getting a new smart phone in order to be able to use the square to accept credit card sales was a great investment. Inspired by Spring, both Staci and I added many new items to our inventory of handmade goods. Creating a banner with my business name is one goal I finally accomplished: I took many pictures of our booth at the Spring Sugar Plum Bazaar. Most of the pictures on this blog posting are mine...Isa Creations. The last four photos are Staci's handmade items, including a closeup photo of one of my favorites (and favorites of many of our customers). Sugar Plum Bazaar was a great experience! We continue to learn from our fellow vendors and loved meeting new customers. I kept going downstairs (we were in the carriage house) to see Amy from The Pink Attic to add treasures to my "bag." I can honestly say that a portion of my profits were spent at the Pink Attic booth! Love my vintage treasures.

Hi, today I will share a pincushion tutorial that I made, hoping you like it and encourage you to do so. Here I leave the patterns ....
LA GALLINA COSTURERA 2012-12-17 En diciembre de 2012 El "Club de los Lunes" preparó una excursión para visitar la feria "Creativa" en Madrid; y una de sus componentes, (Ana Fernández) compró este simpático proyecto en el stand de la tienda Dechado. Y tuvo la atención de regalarnos a cada una de nosotras un proyecto y las telas correspondientes; la confección era por nuestra cuenta. TODO UN REGALAZO. Mirad qué preparada está la gallina para empezar los nuevos proyectos del año que empieza.-
Learn how to make a pin cushion which will sharpen your pins as you use it. Transform your fabric scraps into an emery pincushion.
Like I mentioned last week, I've decided to revisit my one-a-day pincushion challenge. My goal is to make a pincushion a day for the month of July. I did this last year and I had a blast! I'm happy to say that things are off to a great start! day 1--I pulled out a bag of scraps that my friend Jacey gave me earlier this year. The color scheme is one of my favorites! For the design, I went after the first idea that popped into my head and I was thrilled that it turned out pretty close to my original idea on the first try. (That is NOT always the case. hahaha!) day 2--this pincushion was inspired by the remainders quilt in my book No Scrap Left Behind. The triangles didn't turn out nearly small enough....so I tried again on day 3. I do love the one yellow triangle in this one! day 3--these triangles finish at about 1/2"! This is what I was envisioning. I love this one so much and I have a feeling that this one will become part of my permanent pincushion collection. Just to give you an idea of the scale of the triangles from day 2 and day 3....smaller=cuter! A few things to mention: 1. I almost always quilt my pincushion tops to scrap batting. The quilting adds a lovely texture to the finished piece. 2. I use lightweight interfacing (SF 101) fused to the back of quilting cotton for my pincushion backings. 3. I use invisible nylon thread to hand stitch the openings closed, which I do by hand. 4. I use crushed walnut shells for filling, which are sold as lizard litter. I purchase them at Pet Smart. (25 dry quarts at a time. hahaha!) I wanted to say a quick thank you for all of you who left name suggestions for my quilt top last Friday. I appreciate the help! There are some great ideas, it will be hard to choose just one! One question I want to ask of you, do you have a pincushion collection? I'd be curious to know. Happy Monday to you!
I've been meaning to pop this post up for a while now, it seems I haven't done a D.I.Y in aaages! This one is quite simple, and can be a really cute addition to your sewing tool collection- whilst being very pretty and practical to use! You will need: ~ 1 x pretty teacup and saucer (make sure its an old one!) ~ 1 x glue gun and glue sticks to go in it ~ 1 x (approx) 30cm x 30cm piece of scrap fabric ~ Scissors ~ A handful of cushion stuffing/wadding Most of these are things that can be found quite easily. I bought my teacup from a local charity shop for 50p (I definitely recommend popping down to your local charity shop, you'll get a lovely one for half nothing!). I also got the fabric from my fabric stash, any kind is suitable, as long as it goes nicely with your teacup! I took the wadding out of a cushion I had made in GCSE textiles (shh!), but you could easily get some from any haberdashery shop. The glue gun was borrowed from my mum, but you could use any glue to fix the pieces together :) Instructions: 1. Take your teacup and saucer, and turn the teacup upside down. Run a thin layer of glue around the rim of the base of the teacup, just where it would touch the saucer when they sit together. 2. Line up the bottom of the cup and the ring in the centre of the saucer: ...and press it down firmly in the correct place. 3. Wait a while for it to dry (this will vary depending on the type of glue you use!)- if you use a glue gun, it should fix pretty quickly :) All fixed nicely :) The saucer will give you a handy place to store your thread, scissors, thimbles, buttons etc whilst you are sewing! 4. Take your wadding and make sure it is just the right amount to fit inside the teacup. Try it for size: 5. Now take your fabric, and place the wadding in the centre and wrap the fabric around it, pulling it in at the bottom: 6. Take a strip of the fabric you have been using (although you can just use string, or even an elastic band!) and tie the ball of wadding into the fabric. Give it a prod and a poke to make it a nice even blob shape to fit nicely into your teacup :) 7. Snip off the excess fabric with a pair of scissors. This doesn't have to be neat as it will be hidden! 8. Next, pop the cushion into the teacup and just take note approximately where the sides touch so you know where abouts to put the glue. Then remove the cushion, and put a generous amount of glue about mid way up in the teacup, all the way around. 9. Quickly, whilst the glue is still wet, take your cushion and press it into the teacup, making sure the sides touch the cushion. Hold it down for about 30 seconds or so (again depending on the glue you use!) until it is fixed in nicely! 10. Now you are ready to fill it with your pins, and pop all of your sewing essentials onto the saucer! Very handy to have next to you when you are sewing, and also a nice ornament to have decorating your workspace :) Let me know if any of you lovelies try this, I'd love to see what you come up with! Happy sewing :) x

Tarde de domingo, tarde de lluvia, tarde de costura... Ayer por la tarde fue el momento perfecto para hacer esta manualidad que tenía pendiente desde hace tiempo. No es otra cosa que un sencillo y práctico acerico, y es que... ¿Cuál de vosotras no ha hecho al menos uno? Los veo continuamente en vuestros blogs de todos los colores, tamaños y forma. He ido pillando información de aquí y de allá, de un blog y de otro... ...Y aquí os presento a Mis primeros acericos!!! ...Como de estreno va la cosa, aprovechando que es un trabajo facilito, a continuación os dejo Mi primer paso a paso o tutorial por si quedase alguna rezagada, como yo, que todavía no lo ha hecho. Comenzamos... Materiales para un acerico o alfiletero. ✿Una lata de conserva de atún o similar bien limpia y seca. ✿Pegamento en barra (el de uso escolar). ✿Pegamento textil o similar. ✿Lápiz. ✿Una plantilla de cartón de la base de la lata (envase de cereales, por ejemplo). ✿Un par de retales de tela que os gusten (una la usaremos para la tapa y cuerpo y la segunda para el acerico de arriba). ✿Un trozo de puntilla o cinta para decorar. ✿Guata o miraguano para el relleno. ✿Un botón. ✿Y por supuesto útiles de costura, tijeras, aguja, alfileres e hilo. Tenía tres latas pequeñas de atún vacías, limpias y secas en la despensa desde hace unos días. Mi marido y mis hijos creían que me había vuelto loca, y me preguntaban... ¿Pero que hacen estas latas de atún vacías en la despensa? y ayer por fin supieron para que las quería. Pero vamos allá, que me enrollo como una persiana... Hacemos una plantilla de cartón que encaje dentro de la base de la lata de atún. Con el lápiz dibujamos la plantilla de cartón en el revés de la tela escogida para la base, y recortamos dejando que sobresalga algo de tela. Al sobrante de tela le hacemos unos pequeños cortes o pestañas. Pegar el cartón al contrario de como está en la foto, el exterior del envase hacía arriba, ya que suelen tener color, y después se clarea en la tela. Pegamos la plantilla de cartón a la tela con pegamento en barra y doblamos las pestañas hacía dentro, y volvemos a dar pegamento en barra, dejamos secar un par de minutos. (veis lo que os decía del cartón) ...Ya tenemos nuestra base lista Para el cuerpo del acerico cortamos una tira de la misma tela ajustando el alto y la longitud del diámetro de la lata. He dejado como un cm más por cada lado. Doblamos la tira del revés y cosemos. Damos la vuelta a la tela y la enfundamos en la lata. Doblamos el sobrante de la base y lo pegamos, como en la foto, con pegamento textil. Un poco más de pegamento en la base, unimos y presionamos un poco. Así queda la base ya pegada... Damos la vuelta a la lata y hacemos lo mismo con el sobrante, lo pegamos hacía dentro. Vamos ahora con el acerico: En el revés de la otra tela dibujamos un circulo del tamaño de un CD y recortamos (yo he dejado un cm alrededor del circulo), pasamos una bastilla o pespunte por la linea dibujada y fruncimos. Rellenamos el interior con guata o miraguano... ...y fijamos bien el frunce. Para decorar el acerico, yo he usado dos hebras de hilo del nº12. Pinchas en el centro del acerico de dentro hacía afuera, por debajo. Primero haces un cruz hasta completar las 8 particiones, siempre de abajo arriba. Con el mismo cabo de hilo sobrante cosemos un botón. Casi lo tenemos, ponemos de nuevo un poco de pegamento textil en borde de la lata por dentro y también alrededor del frunce del acerico, encajamos sin apretar demasiado. Por último decoramos con una puntilla, ponemos un poco de pegamento alrededor de la parte alta de la lata y pegamos. ...Et voilà!!! Fácil, no? el resultado, un acerico muy coqueto y además práctico!!! Esto es todo por hoy, espero que os haya gustado la entrada, me lo he pasado genial haciendo el paso a paso. La tarde del domingo que en principio parecía triste y lluviosa ha resultado ser práctica y creativa. ¿No opináis lo mismo? Besos y disfrutad a tope de la semana!!! Mami.
Flickr is nothing without you, our community. We want to make sure this community continues to thrive, grow, and inspire, so we've made some big changes.
I made a small pins-rest with a plastic bottle cap and Kimono fabrics. This listing will go one pincushion , without pins. Materials: *Plastic PET bottle cap * Thick Silk 100% Kimono fabric used (recycled, professionally cleaned) * Video color looks more natural, my photos look a bit pinky than actual one. *Padded polyester-cotton with some soap flakes to keep your pins away from rust. Measurements: dia. 1 1/4 inches or less Height 1 1/4 inches or less I wish my pincushion will always besides you as an Etsy crafter and rest your pins and yourself too. * Smoke free, pet free studio :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I wish you enjoy my products.

Persephone Primrose? That's me. A group of sewing friends and I chose pseudonyms for ourselves many years ago and Persephone Primrose was mine. My maiden name begins with P so choosing a double P pseudonym was a bit of fun and even today, darling Joy (real name) still calls me Persef and I can't imagine calling her anything but Ethel. But you know, for the life of me I can't remember the pseudonyms of the rest of our group! So what about "pumps", you ask? What's the story there? Well for starters they are not shoes. The pumps in my life are the kind that remove water from a very flooded yard. May I present the Sea of Reynolds - this is the backyard version, and we have a front yard sea as well. The pumps we currently have in the ground to remove the excess rain water (remember, we live in the tropics and have wet seasons) simply cannot pump fast enough and so these seas continue to swell. In fact the backyard looked like this at 5.30 this morning, eight hours after the rain stopped. We had a cracker of a storm last night but that was nothing compared to what is on it's way this weekend and early next week. Cyclone Owen is about to be upgraded to Category 4 and is swirling north of here in the Gulf where it will cross to land early Saturday morning and begin a rather nasty journey south east and by Sunday reach our town with more water than we've seen in years and crazy winds. It should have downgraded to a severe tropical low by then but nothing is certain, we just know to batten down the hatches and stay indoors. (bottom right - Townsville - that's us) (you can track the cyclone's path here) I'm praying for those who will cop the category 4 when it hits land tomorrow morning. They are small communities and need our prayers for safety, peace and shelter. Having only ever rented before we bought this home in September, things like upgrading pumps and getting the house and outdoor areas cyclone-ready are new to us. In fact Mr E was out in the storm last night digging ditches to stem the flow of rain which threatened to breach our entrance doors front and back. The water got so high out back that it ran up over the step to flood the pool area and in the process many frogs and small lizards drowned. I never knew frogs could drown but when they get exhausted they do just that. Very sad seeing them belly up in our pool this morning. I should explain to my readers in the northern hemisphere that a cyclone is the same as a hurricane but it rotates in the opposite direction and the most dangerous place to catch the brunt of a cyclone is directly in it's path or below it (due to the wind and rain)...I'm thinking in the US it's more dangerous to be north of a hurricane than south of it? So please, pray. There will be major flooding which will eventually affect the entire east coast of the state, landslides, roads destroyed and property loss. Pray that people are wise, choose safety first, and are kept safe. Back to this week's pincushion... I fussy cut a cute little house motif to sit beside the P and bordered the block in a red print with green stem stitch sewn in the ditch. Remember, you can scroll through all the pincushion ideas shared so far and mix and match with alphabet initials that suit your purpose. Do you have some pretty motifs in your stash? Dig them out and have some fun with this pincushion! You can download the P pattern here and here as a free gift until January 3rd, 2019. Check last Friday's blog post for the free links to O as it's also free until January 3rd. The pattern sets for A-E, F-I and J-N are a $2 purchase here in my shop. Early this week I finally finished a project that meant a great deal to my heart. For the Stitchery Club this December we're celebrating the vintage style of years past and the lovely linens many of us have collected, inherited and treasured, and we are doing this by sewing our own 'new' embroidered linens which can then be handed down and loved by the next generation. There are six individual patterns in the December issue and I used five to make this beautiful supper cloth which is dedicated to my Nana, Phyllis May. It was difficult to get a good photo on the table due to the clouds and rain, but mostly because I'm rather petite in height and was unable to tower over the supper cloth for a nice straight pic (and Mr E was off at work so no help there either...)! So I thought to hang it in our front entrance as there was better light coming through, and you know what? I love it there! It never occurred to me that I could hang a supper cloth as a wall quilt but for the time being that's exactly where it shall stay - until I have a friend over for morning tea and need to dress the table! The stitcheries in each corner are different, but the wider stitchery along the sides is the same all the way around. (you can see all four corner stitcheries here) Originally I was going to use all the same lace around the centre fabric but silly me started sewing it in place without measuring to see if I had enough...and I did not. I dragged Mr E to Spotlight and then to Lincraft looking for (praying for) another 1/2 metre but alas it could not be found. So I bought lace in the same colour and width, unpicked the third side, and completed the centre with one style of lace across the top and bottom and the other style down both sides. My lack-of-forward-thinking crisis was overcome with a second best plan. "Necessity in the mother of invention" Nana would say in my situation and indeed she'd be right. She'd also suggest "use what you have" or "make do and mend" but I love what she'd say afterwards - "Good girl, Jennifer, that's using your noggin!" If you're not a Club member (over here) but would like to make Phyllis May's Supper Cloth yourself, I'll have the pattern in the shop on Monday morning. Righto, my beloved is on his way home from school to begin the summer break so I have him all to myself for five whole weeks! But first, we'd better continue with preparing the property for the storm ahead. Have a BLESSED weekend! hugs
Yesterday, I received an email from the lovely Amy of the LucyKate Crafts blog letting me know about a Valentine tutorial she came up with. I am not all that great with a sewing

(Crochet * Stash-buster) A niece of mine is studying Fashion Design, and I thought of making a crochet pincushion for her (similar to the one I made for my mom not long ago)… Una de mis sobrinas está estudiando diseño de modas, y pensé en hacerle un alfiletero (similar al que le hice a mi mamá hace poco). 1. Daisy Pincushion A pincushion with a daisy on top. Un alfiltero con una margarita. I made this in a different way than my mom´s…This time, I filled a little shallow plastic tin with recycled dry ground coffee (which I learned works as well as saw dust in keeping the needles from rusting). I covered the top of the tin with fabric... Éste lo hice de diferente manera que el de mi madre…En esta ocasión llené una lata pequeña con granos de café reciclado seco (el cual oí que funciona igual que el acerrin, previniendo que los alfileres se oxiden). Luego cubrí la lata con tela… And finally came the crochet cover, with a daisy center, and then simple crochet and moss st. De último, le hice la cubierta de ganchillo comenzando con una margarita, y luego medios puntos. I used DK acrylic yarn, in the following colours: white, camel, green, aqua and neon green. Usé una lana acrílica delgada, en los siguientes colores: blanco, camello, verde, aqua y verde neón My niece liked it…and asked me if I could make another one… Complací a mi sobrina…tanto que me pidió si le podía hacer otro… 2. Hedgehog Pincushion Hedgehogs are really cute creatures. They have the perfect shape for a pincushion, given its needle-like body. Los puercoespines son criaturas tan tiernas. Su forma es perfecta para un alfiletero, dadas sus espinas que parecen agujas. I had to improvise a bit, but I think it worked well… Tuve que improvisar, pero creo que me salió bien… I think it is so cute! Creo que es primoroso.
