Työn alla on tällä hetkellä talvinen mekko, joka on edestä kokonaan auki ja johon tulee siis nappeja ja napinläpiä helmasta kaulukseen, 50 kaiken kaikkiaan. Niitä olenkin viime päivät väsännyt joutohetkinä yhden silloin toisen tällöin. Tätä kirjoittaessani kasassa on 16 nappia ja 26 valmista napinläpeä. Juolahtipa kuitenkin mieleeni tehdä pieni kuvasarja kangasnapin valmistuksesta. Aiemmin olen tehnyt nappeja hieman eri tavalla ohuemmasta kankaasta, puuvillasta tai silkistä, joka vaatii sisäänsä täytettä, mutta villakankaasta saa tehtyä nappeja, jotka täyttävät itse itsensä. Tekniikan opin Katrinin blogista, jossa on myös video, jos joku innostuu tekemään nappeja, eikä saa selostuksestani tai marraskuun valossa otetuista kuvista selvää. I am sewing at the moment winter dress which opens from hem to neck and it needs a lot of buttons and buttonholes. 50 of them both. lately I have made them one by one now and then. At the moment 16 buttons and 26 buttonholes are ready. Well, it came to my mind to show how I am making the buttons out of woollen material. I have made earlier buttons from thinner materials, like cotton or silk. They need some stuffing and the technique is a bit different, because these buttons kinda stuff themselves. The technique here I have learned from Katrins´ blog. She is having also a video of it, so you can check there, if my text and photos (taken in a November light) are not clear enough. Kangas, jota sinisissä napeissa on käytetty, on Naturtuchen villaa, joka painaa 350 grammaa juoksumetriltä. Neliöt, joista nappi lähtee syntymään, ovat 3 senttiä kanttiinsa. Mikäli käytetään paksumpaa villaa, neliön tulee olla suurempi ja tämän paksuisestakin se voisi olla hieman isompi tarvittaessa. Kuvissa käytän kankaasta erottuvaa pellavalankaa, varsinaiset napit mekkoa varten on ommeltu liki kankaan värisellä silkkilangalla. Valmiit napit ovat noin sentin halkaisijaltaan. I have used blue wool from Naturtuche. It weights 350 g per running meter. The squares are about 3 x 3 centimeter, they could be a little bit larger too. If you use thicker fabric, they should be larger. For photographic purposes I have used here linen thread, but in the actual buttons for the dress I am using blue silken thread. The ready button size is about one centimeter across. Ensin kiinnitän langan yhteen kulmaan ja taitan kaikki kulmat sisäänpäin. I fold the corners inside and sew through them... Ompelen langan kulmien läpi kuten kuvassa ja kiristän lankaa. ...pulling the thread a little. Taitan syntyneet kulmat uudelleen sisäänpäin ja ompelen samoin. Then I fold the new corners and sew... Taitan kulmat vielä kolmannen kerran ja ompelen ja kiristän. Tässä vaiheessa nappi on jo melkoinen mytty. ...and again the third time. Siivoan vielä törröttävät kulmat ja muotoilen nappia pyöreämmäksi ompelemalla lankaa ristiin rastiin napin pohjassa. Käytän pitkää lankaa, josta riittää vielä napin kiinnitykseen ja sen kaulan vahvistamiseen. Teen vielä 49 muuta nappia tämänkertaiseen tarpeeseen. Now the button is already quite round, but I can secure it and sew in a few corners left with a few stitches and make it rounder. I use long thread which with I can then sew the button to the dress. Then I make another 49 buttons.

A couple of days ago I wrote that Katy, one of my internet friends, sent me a whole pile of needle threaders after I complained about having to sink the thread ends on some huge quilts. One of the comments to that post asked, "what do you mean by sinking the thread ends, and how does a needle threader help?" A good question! If you have begun or ended a line of machine stitching in the middle of your quilt, you have to deal with the two thread ends. Some people backstitch to secure the threads, or perhaps use very tiny stitches as they get to the end of the line, then cut the thread ends off right there. But I have seen too many such finishes that don't look finished at all. The scissors can't reach exactly to the surface of the quilt, so the thread ends stick up in little eyelashes. Or the backstitch didn't really secure the threads, so over time the quilting comes unsewed. I think it's much more professional to pull both ends to either the front or back of the quilt, tie them, thread them into a needle and make the threads disappear between the layers of the quilt. This is time-consuming, of course, even if your eyes are good enough to thread a needle without difficulty (mine aren't). I have used self-threading needles but they tend to shred rayon or shiny polyester thread. It's much easier to just use a needle threader. I should give a shout-out to Robbi Joy Eklow, another Quiltart list maven, who champions an alternative method of sinking thread ends. It really works, and I have used it on occasion but not enough to really get into the rhythm and internalize the method. I'll show you how it works (wish I could send you to Robbi's website, but I can't find this anywhere publicly posted) but as for me, I'm just so happy with all the needle threaders that Katy sent me last year, I'll probably stick with my own method forever. In either case, here's the tutorial: My method -- with needle threader step 1: Insert a needle into the quilt exactly where you want your thread ends to disappear. Run the needle between the layers of the quilt for about an inch, feeling from underneath to make sure the needle doesn't poke through on the back. Bring the needle up to the top of the quilt. step 2: Pop the needle threader through the eye of the needle. Arrange the thread ends underneath the wires of the needle threader. step 3: Using a tweezer, grab the thread ends and pull them up through the wires of the needle threader. Pull on the needle threader to get the thread ends through the eye of the needle. Pull the needle through the quilt to sink the thread ends. Clip off the thread ends where they emerge from the top of the quilt. You will cleverly notice that you could have threaded the needle before you ran it between the layers of the quilt. Yes, but what if your thread ends weren't long enough? We always try to leave plenty of thread when we start or stop, but sometimes things happen. This way you can pull the thread ends through the needle even if they're only a half-inch long. Robbi's method -- with needle and thread step 1: Cut a piece of thread about a foot long. Robbi suggests orange so you can keep that threaded needle in your pincushion forever and find it easily the next time you need to sink thread ends. Double the thread and thread both ends through the needle. Adjust the length of the ends so the loop is longer than the cut ends. step 2: Insert the needle exactly at the point where you want your thread ends to disappear. Run the needle through the layers of the quilt, feeling underneath to make sure the needle does not poke through on the bottom. Bring the needle up about an inch away. step 3: Pull the thread through until only a small loop is left. step 4: Pull the thread ends through the orange loop. step 5: Pull the orange thread, which will carry the thread ends through the layers of the quilt. Trim off the thread ends where they emerge from the top of the quilt.
