I decided I wanted to try my hand at making a Kimekomi cone. I saw this technique on Pinterest first using Christmas balls. It is originally from Japan and is fabric tucking. You can find some tutorials on Pinterest but most of them are in a foreign language. You can get the gist just from watching even though I didn't understand a word. I used a pattern that I found on Pinterest. You can find bunches of them. The step below is using carbon paper to transfer the pattern to a Poly Styrofoam cone. I used a marker to make the lines clearer. Then you use a x-acto knife to cut all the lines. I am certainly no expert but it turned out to be fun using different fabrics to get the desired effect. I ended up using a seam ripper to tuck the fabric into the grooved lines. It is important that you use enough material to get into the groove so that it won't come out. The picture below is my completed project. Although, I am still working on what I will put on the top. I will probably use a star but still haven't decided as yet. I did add buttons to Santa and a pom- pom for his hat. I couldn't quite get the star on the top of the tree so I added a metal star. It worked fine! I could have just done the Santa but decided to add a deer to the back. It gave me more practice. I hope to do a few more and hopefully get better at it. But this one was really fun! Will probably sell it at our Christmas Fair in November. It was really HOT today so this was a fun project in my craft room with my air conditioner! Hope you all stay cool!

For years, I've been interested in Penny Rugs. Their origin dates back to the Civil War era, when homemakers used wool scraps from old clothing, etc. to create mats or rugs. Using coins as templates, they created circles and stitched them with a blanket stitch to a background fabric. They weren't necessarily made as floor rugs, but more often decor coverings for beds, tables, and mantels. Recently, inspired by the blog site of Ashton Publications, I decided to try my hand at making a penny rug since it appears I will never find an antique one in my price range. Wool fabric is very expensive, so the search began to find affordable materials. Since this is raw-edge applique, the wool needs to be felted so that it doesn't ravel. The options are: Wool felt (different from craft felt) which sells for about $18 a yard in a limited color selection at Jo-Ann Fabric. I found my wool felt at Ruth's Stitchery in Colorado Springs in a bunch of yummy colors. Another option is wool that has been over-dyed and felted and is available on Etsy, and also at some quilt stores. This is expensive at about $3.00 for a piece 5" square; but, oh, it is so luscious and I can't resist it. A third option is to purchase new wool fabric at approximately $30 and up for a yard. Then, it is necessary to felt the wool yourself by washing it in very hot water and drying it in a hot dryer. And finally, another option is to find 100% wool garments at the thrift stores; deconstruct them and felt them yourself. I used wool from all of the above sources so that I could have a variety of colors, textures and patterns. This was a fun project; and was easy to accomplish using a #22 chenille needle and #5 Perle cotton for the embroidery, taking a couple of weeks working in the evenings. This is a small piece measuring just 12" x 20". Now, I'm thinking about another project using wool and embroidery; but not necessarily circular shapes. We'll see!!!

Mis casitas..........unidas. Aquí las tengo preparadas para montar el sandwich y a acolchar. El curso con Nuria me vino estupendo, aquí voy a practicar algunas técnicas, o mejor dichos, formas de acolchado. "Tusnelda" os presenta la última casita terminada El "cristmas Shop" Al lado tenemos la Iglesia "La Escuela" también existe en el pueblo de Sulky Otro Log Cabin en miniatura, las tiras miden unidas 1/4 pulgada Ahora viene lo mas divertido.....acolchar. Carmen Rosa ya empezó a hacer cosas para la navidad. Este modelo de pie de árbol estamos trabajado hace mucho tiempo, pero cada vez, con otras combinaciones, queda distinto. Aquí ha decidido trabajarlo en colores country. Hoy a Janine le dio por hacerse un cojín en la técnica de Log Cabin. A ella siempre le han gustado los diseños de Deseda, aquí con un gatito goooordo, con lunares en plata. Lo combino con una tela de Kaffe Fassett que se llama clouds...realmente una monada. Acolchando con unos puntos decorativos. Le ha quedado un cojín genial, rápido y lucido.
