My friend Julie Cowan and I do stuff together, especially beading stuff. We met on Facebook and have been friends now for quite some time. She's been so generous to me, and so kind, and she is a very special friend. We sometimes exchange things, send each other chocolate or beads or funny things (she sent me awesome gourmet cookies one time, too!!)... we just took a 'class' together from CraftEdu online and had so much fun with it! The class is by Cindy Chavez, and focused on making a goddess or doll form, and embellishing it with fabric and fibers and beads. Today, we had a little exchange, Julie and I, as we had mailed each other things on Tuesday, and both boxes arrived at the same time, so we opened them while messaging on FB. SO much fun!! It could only have been better if we were sitting together in a coffee shop for the exchange. :) She sent me the goddess she made, and she is just so exquisite!! If you look closely at the photo, you can see tiny little acorns and the beautiful fibers Julie used, dragonflies, flowers, gorgeous branching wings and the sweetest face... just like Julie herself. It's very special to me - we had so much fun doing the class 'together' online, and this was a huge surprise to me, I had no idea Julie would give her to me!! I can't reveal my goddess yet, as I am still waiting for Sherwood's flash camera part thing to come... the first one didn't work!!! Now, before you read any more... go and read Julie's blog, please - she tells the story so much better than I can. If you've gone and read it, you know what a huge honor Julie did me. It took me a very long time to actually create the necklace, and Julie was very patient with me. I had so many things happen this year that weren't good ones - and I didn't want to work on the piece when I wasn't happy or feeling good. NO bad moods or sadness while making it, nope nope nope. So I worked on it when I was ok and things were ok, and I tried very hard to make something that would reflect Julie's love and care of her Mother. It was such a huge gift Julie gave me, to ask me to make this necklace. I was terrified of sending it off when it was finished, because I was so afraid that she might not care for it - especially the beaded bits on the beads her Mom made, because I wasn't sure that covering even part of them up was an ok idea... The bands of RAW on the beads were made to cradle them, and protect them, in the same way that Julie cares for and protects her Mom, and I left as much space as possible between the bands so that her beads would show through. I chose purple because I know Julie loves it, and because it really set the turquoise off in the beads. Each one is different, and has a different bead count because the beads were so one-of-a-kind themselves. I strung it with lampwork by Irish at Lampwork Beads and Juls of Julsbeads, sterling beads and made loops with more silver at the ends, and then made a hexagon rope with a sterling flowery clasp because Julie loves nature and her garden so much; I wanted it to be as full of things she loved as possible. It means the world to me that she likes it - and that she put it on right away when she got it today. Love you, lady bird - thank you SO much for asking me to make this special piece for you.

Featured artist: Serena Di Mercione (a.k.a Serena Di Mercione Jewelry) Signature Design: Shibori Jewelry Introduction: I stumbled upon this Shibori Silk Leaf Earrings by Serena Di Mercione Jewelry in Pinterest, and shared it on de Cor's Handmades Fanpage last week to receive great respond from the audience, I decided to do some research and found that Serena actually did composed a photo tutorial of how to make one of her another Shibori Silk Cuff design, though it's not the earrings I've stumbled upon, but the tutorial to make the cuff pretty much cover the idea, concept and everything you need to know to create jewelry with Shibori Silk. Shibori Silk Leaf Earrings by Serena Di Mercione Jewelry Shibori Silk Cuff by Serena Di Mercione Jewelry I've wrote to Serena to get the green light to feature her in my blog, and here's what I've grabbed from her Facebook photo album, if you ever made something out from this tutorial, kindly give the credit to Serena Di Mercione Jewelry (thank you!). Please note that I won't be able to add much description to the following tutorial as Serena did not label them with wording as well, but my guess is she was using a suede leather or wool felt as base for this project. Enjoy! UPDATE: After this blog is published, Serena came back with some add-on information, very useful information for you crafters out there who'd like to have some hands on making the Shibori Silk Cuff! The white cloth she dyed on is known as "Laci's stiff stuff", according to Serena, Laci's stiff stuff is the best fabric for Bead Embroidery, the texture is more or less like felt except it's thinner and more durable. Serena dyed the suede with Adirondack Color Wash, though she did mentioned that you could leave the sheet plain and white if you are could sew the Shibori silk and beads up with great intensity, leaving no gaps in between that would reveal the plain and white background, otherwise, dying it with some colors would be a much better option, though it's not compulsory - it's subjective, not a must, she claimed. UPDATE: Serena added short description for this step: The green fabric here is suede leather, she use it to coat the back of the cuff. Last but not least, meet Serena Di Mercione. :) Gorgeous work, and I hope you are inspired! :) Remember, if you made something out from this tutorial, remember to credit this incredible artist: Serena Di Mercione (a.k.a.

Don't you just love it when your child's school give you exactly 2 days' notice to whip up a fancy dress costume! Yesterday we were told that my daughter's school were going to be having a "Harvest Themed" fancy dress day to raise money for the school. The obvious options were to go as a farmer, scarecrow or milkmaid - none of which we had at home and none of which I could persuade my daughter to go as. Apparently they're not "pretty enough." So here I am, trying to create a pretty Harvest costume out of thin air. I wanted to make an autumnal coloured skirt, which may or may not be decorated with leaves if I manage to find the time from somewhere... (as you can see, I didn't.) The Tutorial I decided to make a kind of layered, floaty tutu, but I wanted it to be slightly different from the kind that is just strips of fabric knotted around a piece of elastic. I wondered if it would be possible to make the strips twist and twirl like falling leaves as they cascaded. To make the skirt you need: - A metre or 2 each of as many different coloured nylon and polyester satin, organza and tulle fabrics you can find. (I live in a small town and so I was limited to just a few shades of habutai polyester, some lining fabric and some bright orange tulle fabric.) I already had a few remnants of other fabrics that I was able to put to use. 2 metres or so of 4cm wide ribbon. Elastic Pattern Pieces Candle lighter Scissors Thread Pins Sewing machine Print out the 3 pattern pieces, cut out the grey shapes and tape them together into one long semi-circular strip. Fold your different coloured fabric pieces up as many times as possible, allowing you to cut out 8 to 10 pieces at the same time. I found the safest way to ensure that all of the fabric was under the pattern piece was to fold it over and under like a concertina. If you have a lot more time than me, you could cut each piece out individually, which would make more economical use of your fabric, giving you a few more strips to work with. In the end I managed to cut 44 pattern pieces out of as many different fabrics I could find. To prevent the fabric edges from fraying and to give the fabric pieces more volume, singe around all the edges with a candle lighter - of course this method is only suitable for nylon and polyester. Never try this with cotton or silk and always do a test sample first over a bucket of water! The net or tulle fabric don't need to be singed as it doesn't fray. The skirt could be made completely out of tulle if you prefer, but you would need a lot more fabric and a lot more layers to get a similar effect. Once you've singed around all of the edges of your nylon and polyester fabric it's time to start assembling the layers. Before you start pinning, work out what your colour pattern is going to be. I had 5 different fabrics, all in varying quantities, so on a piece of paper, I made a note of the order I needed to arrange my fabrics so that I had an even spread of colour all around the skirt. Each piece is pinned to the previous piece at the straight edge. Overlap your pieces so that just a couple of centimetres is left exposed. Continue from left to right, staggering the overlaps until all of your fabric pieces have been used up. Alternate the direction of the curve in the pattern pieces as you work your way along the skirt. Here's a close up of the singed edges of fabric. You can see that the opacity of some of the fabrics means that you don't need nearly as much fabric, as you would with just tulle, to get quite a dense looking skirt. To make the skirt a lot more solid looking I added a circle underskirt to the whole thing. To draw the pattern for my circle skirt I used this ingenious page by the Scientific Seamstress. It's brilliant! It allows you to print out lots of pieces of paper that all tape together to form a quarter circle of concentric circles. I worked out how large the circumference of the inner circle needed to be by loosely measuring my daughter's hips and then adding a few centimetres. From that I worked out what diameter the waist hole needed to be*. This gave me the size of the cut out hole in the centre. Onto that I added double the length that I wanted the skirt to be and this gave me the diameter of the circle I needed to cut out. I hope that all made sense! *For reference, the formula for working out the diameter from the circumference is :- Diameter = Circumference divided by Pi Once all of your strip pieces have been pinned together, run a long basting stitch across all of the pieces and remove the pins. Now pin the fabric strips all the way around the edge of the inner circle. If your layered skirt is much larger than your inner skirt waist, use the basting stitches to gather it all in to the same size. By huge coincidence, my over-skirt was exactly the same size as the inner waist hole. To make the waist band, cut 2 strips of ribbon the same size at the waist, with an extra couple of centimetres for folding over. Stitch them together along one of the long edges to form the front and back of the waist band. With the wrong sides together, fold along the seam and press the seam along the right side. With the right sides together, pin the waist band into place, folding over the ends. Stitch the waist band into place. Fold the waistband over to its correct position and pin into place. Stitch the inside of the waistband into place by stitching as close as possible to the bottom edge of the front waistband. Finally, using a safety pin, thread some elastic all the way through the inside of the waistband, try it on and knot the elastic at the point where it fits comfortable but snuggly. There you have one swirly, cascading, floaty skirt, that any 6-year-old girl would love!
