Do you have this accessory for your sewing machine? Do you use it?It allows you to stitch at the desired distance from a previous stitching. It's great for echo quilting. I have a Pfaff machine and this is called edge/quilting guide. It's very easy to attach it to the machine.And stitching lines spaced at 1'' (or even more) saves you time! And if you want to add some free motion quilting, it's easy to do it in between the lines. Happy sewing week,Geta

Sunday's Quilt Inspiration had to do with crazy quilts because I needed some ideas for the crazy quilt bolster I've been working on. Well, I'm still working on the bolster and need to see how lace was used on some of the Victorian quilts that I've seen. So I figured that I'd start with crazy lace. Then we'll just see what happens from there. All of these photos are on my "crazy, quilts" board. Notice the spider and spider web in the next piece? I had to find out why so many crazy quilts included them and, it turns out, there was a good reason: women of the Victorian era, both in Europe and in the States, believed that spiders were a sign of good luck. Additionally, because spiders "weave" their webs, they were good luck for weavers of cloth and those who used the cloth--needlewomen. Naturally, because many crazy quilts depicted the interests of the family, needlewomen include the spiders and their webs to represent their own work. Although I found several articles on this topic, two were especially interesting reads: http://www.caron-net.com/featurefiles/featmay.html and http://cqmagonline.com/vol09iss3/articles/1002/index.shtml. I recommend them if you're interested in learning more about crazy quilts in general. The second article is from Crazy Quilts Magazine Online, which has many articles available for free. Enjoy some more pins, these from my "vintage, joy" board. Happy Quilting, Mary

I have been on many quilt retreats and I have to say, I particularly love the ones where the organizer had a small group project or make and take that we all did at the retreat!A group project doesn’t need to be a big time consuming thing to be successful, just something for everyone to make a memory together.At several retreats I have been on, the organizer had a quilt block pattern that everyone could make. The idea was to make 1 block during the retreat (although you could certainly make more

Have you been bitten by the Pinterest bug yet? If you haven't discovered this way to avoid the work on your desk, doing the laundry or other to do list items.....Here is where you might want to start! Not only are there general pages of many beautiful images to day dream over, there is list upon list of topics that interest the needle-worker or any other area you might want to enjoy. So what is Pinterest? Our experience has been that it's like a little peek inside the studios of many artists! You get to see what they've pinned up on their bulletin boards. If you "follow" them, you get to see everything they pin - it just shows up on your own bulletin board. Julie uses Pinterest as her opening screen for her browser right now - it changes so often, she just keeps "refreshing" through the day. Wikipedia defines it as: "Pinterest is a pinboard-style social photo sharing website that allows users to create and manage theme-based image collections such as events, interests, hobbies and more. Users can browse other pinboards for inspiration, 're-pin' images to their own collections and/or 'like' photos. Pinterest's mission is to "connect everyone in the world through the 'things' they find interesting" via a global platform of inspiration and idea sharing. Pinterest allows its users to share 'pins' on both Twitter and Facebook, which allows users to share and interact with a broad community. Founded by Ben Silbermann, of West Des Moines, Iowa,the site is managed by Cold Brew Labs and funded by a small group of entrepreneurs and inventors. It is one of the "fastest growing social services in the world."' You can pin your own images, or look at others'. If you "repin", it shows on your bulletin board and everyone who follows you can see it. If you just "like" it, it joins a list of likes that you can go back and look for when you need them. It's also a kind of "shorthand" way to communicated. Becky will put up a picture, and I will "like" it - may even comment on it - so I don't have to phone or email her to let her know I like it. (Now, you may think it's not very important if Becky knows if I like something, and you're probably right, but it is handy to take a look at these kinds of things so when we start a new design, we know we have some common ground to draw on). See? work-related! The images link back to the original site that posted them, so if you are really serious about making that special dish you see pictured, you can click on the picture and go to find the recipe. Or you can read the story that goes with the pictures of the needlework. You can pin any image you find on the internet by adding a "pin it" button to your browser - but do be respectful of copyright - most artists love that you are "pinning" their work and showing it around, but there are those who would rather you didn't. Since it's hard to tell - don't pin from other people's Flicker or Picasa accounts - those are their private pictures. Blogs and other "Look at this!" kind of sites usually mean you can pin the photos there - just use your common sense and you'll not go wrong. So you set up your account and you decide what your boards' topics will be and away you go. Then you are being followed by people you don't know, not truly "followed", just your pins! You start to follow someone who you have never met before, because they have beautiful pins, Jacki Poulson, whoever she is, is Becky's new favorite to follow... "She has such beautiful pins, they inspire me to want to create, but where is the time to create, when I keep pushing to the next page to see what else there is in this beautiful world of images? I have so many likes, never moving them to my boards and on and on, but isn't it nice to have a world of beautiful imagery to enjoy when you need a break from the rush of life? I find mermaids and acorns, beautiful gardens and homes, places to travel, artwork of every kind, Sailor's Valentines, cute puppy faces and the recipes, well you don't have enough time in your life to try all the recipes that look oh-so-yummy. Tea Time and Tea Parties, holidays galore, weddings and do you need an idea for a new hairdo or how to paint your fingernails? If you can think it there is probably a pin for it and you can search on and on, depending on what people might title their boards, you find something interesting in so many various categories as you can see by the few that I have listed below that relate to needlework and that I found in searching in a short period of time. Soon you will be able to find In The Company of Friends on Pinterest as well if I ever let Julie loose from the workroom! Many of your favorite businesses have boards there for you to follow. So head to http://pinterest.com/ to spend a few minutes (hahaha) ok and hour or so and enjoy all that might interest you. Below are the sub-categories I found for needlework to start with. Pinterest for the Needleworker English Embroidery http://pinterest.com/search/?q=english+embroidery surface Embroidery http://pinterest.com/search/?q=surface+embroidery Stumpwork Embroidery http://pinterest.com/search/?q=stumpwork+embroidery Cross Stitch http://pinterest.com/search/?q=cross+stitch samplers http://pinterest.com/search/?q=samplers needlework http://pinterest.com/search/?q=needlework Needlework Tools http://pinterest.com/search/?q=needlework+tools Counted Thread http://pinterest.com/search/?q=counted+thread Embroidery http://pinterest.com/search/?q=embroidery Stitches http://pinterest.com/search/?q=stitches Hand Embroidery http://pinterest.com/search/?q=hand+embroidery Antique Needlework http://pinterest.com/search/?q=Antique+needlework antique samplers http://pinterest.com/search/?q=antique+samplers Ethnic Embroidery http://pinterest.com/search/?q=+ethnic+Embroidery needlework patterns http://pinterest.com/search/?q=needlework+patterns Thimbles http://pinterest.com/search/?q=thimbles There are so many more categories that you might explore of your various interests in areas of needlework or anything you can imagine. It seems someone out there is pinning it to a board! Contest winner! Well, this will come as no big surprise to anyone - but Jo Perry has come up with a completely stitched set of the Dark Alphabet before anyone else! Doesn't it look grand? As soon as Jo sends us her snail mail address, we'll send her prize out! A little hand-made token that we think is very fitting to the Dark Alphabet! Thank you, Jo, for following along with us as we took that journey "to the dark side", bwahahahahaha. Jo was so wonderful to help us by providing us with pictures, and still, she did more! As she stitched, she composed a poem - what fun! The Dark Alphabet Poem A is for Apple and temptation from snakes B is for Brimstone and the fiery pits that it makes C is for Coven and witches three D is for Devil, a Dutch spinning monkey E is for Eek, disturbing the peace F is for Furies, three women from Greece G is for Gargoyle made out of stone H is for Headless Horseman on a bay or a roan I is for Inky Darkness on a black night J is for Jack-in-a-box who gives you a fright K is for Kelpie the Scots' water-horse L is for Lightning Bird and its storms, of course M is for Mummy with a bandaged head N is for Necromancy and raising the dead O is for Occult and fortune telling P is for Phantom singing in his underground dwelling Q is for Queen of the Night and her Dark Power R is for Raven who lives in the Tower S is for Skeleton made out of bones T is for Things that go bump and their ghostly moans U is for Urmahlullu the Protector of the loo V is for Voodoo, a doll which looks just like you W is for Wyvern like a dragon with only two feet X is for Xaphon and demonic bellows fanning the heat Y is for Yggdrasil the legendary Norse tree Z is for Zombee, yes - an undead Bee! This is the whole of the Dark Alphabet In memory for Lisa who we'll never forget Written by Jo Perry inspired by Julie Buck's designs. YOU can still win a prize - just finish stitching before Julie (which gives you LOTS of time!) and send us a photo of the stitched alphabet! Everyone who does this before Julie finishes will win a prize. What have you got to lose?
This is the story of "The Little Thread Catcher That Could" The Pattern Cover Page, LOOKIN' GOOD! You, too, can make your very own Thread Catcher! The Oh-So-Practical Detachable Pincushion Woo-Hoo! My long awaited Sew In Style Thread Catcher pattern is finally finished and has just been pushed from the nest. Lets's hope that it has wings! I am SO doing the Happy Dance! It is available for INSTANT DIGITAL DOWNLOAD at my Etsy Shop, Curry Bungalow. https://www.etsy.com/shop/CurryBungalow The whole Instant Digital Download thing at Etsy is kind of a new thing, from what I hear. That means that you get your pattern within minutes of purchase, rather than whenever the seller sends it out to you. How cool is that? As I have mentioned previously, it is not such an easy a task to write down how it is that you construct an item. I feel as if I could make one of my Thread Catchers in my sleep, Zzzzzzzzzzz.....I've made so many! But putting that all in to words is not as simple as it might seem. Please, feel free to "Pin" to Pinterest, post to Facebook, tell your friends and pass the word. It is, after all, because of the interest from all of you that I was inspired and motivated to actually write this pattern. Have you got a minute here? I just want to tell you how this all came about. I was just cruising along, selling a few Thread Catchers on Etsy and posting my thread catchers on my blogs, www.tintheburg.blogspot.com and www.currybungalow.blogspot.com, when people began “pinning” them to Pinterest. All of a sudden, my blog hits went through the roof! Flashback to late March 2013... I had just mentioned to Mr. T., (He’s my sweetie of 43, count ‘em, 43 years!) that I had a total of over 5000 hits on my Blog! I was feeling pretty happy about that. Then something crazy happened. Since late March, my Blog hits have gone from a very respectable 5000 to nearly 87,000! And those hits are almost all driven by Pinterest pins! People began to email me, asking me if they could buy the pattern. Well… I didn't have a pattern, other than what was in my head. So I set about putting it all down into a Word document, which was later converted to a PDF file, and I am feeling pretty good about what I have produced. I am betting that all of you are going to love making your own Thread Catchers, and then, you are going to make them as gifts for people that you care about. It seems impossible to make just one! Along with the pattern, I am also offering a supply kit that includes all of the items, minus your choice of fabrics, thread and the button for the posy, needed to make this item. I will discount the kit if you purchase the pattern and the kit at the same time. For those of you who are interested in the pattern for the thread catcher with the Dresden block applied to the top, I am already working on that pattern. It should go together much faster that this one, since most of the work is already done. As I am so fond of saying, please STAY TUNED! I must extend my heartfelt thanks to all of you who have waited so very patiently for this, for those of you who have contacted me and for “Liking” Curry Bungalow on Facebook. I am over the moon and inside out that you love my little sewing accessory! It's "The Little Thread Catcher That Could" ! And that just shows.... "The Power of the PIN" !
