<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CHs5Z56Ljrw/UUFOeG-OIfI/AAAAAAAAAjs/a0ech3VaJpo/s1600/8900.gif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="194" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CHs5Z56Ljrw/UUFOeG-OIfI/AAAAAAAAAjs/a0ech3VaJpo/s200/8900.gif" width="200" /></a></div>
Felting is experiencing a great revival since today’s sewer is
wanting various techniques to embellish clothing, appliqué, quilting and
other craft projects and felting gives that textured "arty" appearance.
It’s fun too, because different fibres give a variety of results.<br />
<br />
The Clover Felting Needle Tool comes with 5 fine needles inserted
into a comfortable to use handle. These needles are fine pointed to
pierce fabric easily and have sort of "barbed" edges to allow the fibre
to interlace the fabric.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>How To:</b> Place a piece of felt, woollen fabric or other suitable fabric
over a softly padded base (or use the special Felting Needle Mat by Clover),
lay some fibres such as mohair, textured knitting yarn, Angelina Fiber etc.
over the fabric, then pierce lightly with the Felting Tool. No thread or glue
needed. Makes wonderful appliqués. <i><b>Complete instructions are included in the package.</b></i><br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Brush-like mat enables smooth punching with little resistance when using the
Felting Needle Tool by Clover. It
allows the fibres of the appliqué to mesh well with the base fabric,
whilst the bristle length provides the ideal hardness and density for punching.<br />
Make sure the needles are inserted vertically to avoid damage and don’t allow
them to touch the base of the mat.<br />
<br />

<span>Waikiwi is a very popular and versatile yarn that is composed of 55% NZ Merino, 20% Nylon, 15% Alpaca, 10%
Possum. It is machine washable, and is a great yarn for a wide range of
garments for babies, kids and adults, as well as accessory items like
hats, gloves, and scarves. And thanks to the 15% nylon, Waikiwi is amazing as a sock yarn!<br /><br />So

Make your own
babushka dolls. Ooshka pattern kits are a fun and easy sewing project.
They contain a sewing pattern and instructions and a face panel printed
on linen/cotton blend fabric.<br />
</div>
<div class="paragraph_style">
You get to choose your own
fabrics for your Ooshkas - they aren’t included in the pattern kit -
that’s part of the fun! So is embellishing your babushka dolls with
applique, pom poms, ribbons and trim.<br />
</div>
<div class="paragraph_style">
You can also choose to make
your Ooshka with black hair and blue or brown eyes, blonde hair and blue
eyes, or she can be a redhead with green/aqua eyes. The pattern kit
comes with the face panel of your choice. Additional printed face panels
are also available for purchase.<br />
</div>
There are also patterns included to make scarves for your Ooshkas and appliqued felt and fabric faces.<br />
<br />
<div class="paragraph_style_1" style="padding-top: 0pt;">
Your finished Ooshka will be no shrinking violet - she’ll measure about 41 cm tall. That’s 16 Inches.</div>
Ooshka pattern kits are AUS$<strike>20</strike> each. <i><span style="color: red;"><b>Oh no they're not.</b></span></i><br />
<br />
I will have these patterns on sale until the shop closes at 5 pm Friday , 1 March 2013. <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: red;"><b>$9.99</b></span></span> <i>(add $2 if you want it posted).</i><br />

We are very excited to have copies of this book on our shelves. This is not a how-to book, full of patterns, instructions
and diagrams.<br />
<br />
It is a book of inspiration. It lets you dream. It is full of
beautiful
photographs that show in great detail a body of work inspired by
Celtic, Viking
and Anglo Saxon Embroidery. <br />
<br />
This book is Jan Messent’s imagination let loose within a
framework of her
vast knowledge of embroidery and textile art of this period. She
uses
techniques that are completely modern and materials that were
not available
until very recently. However, she references the past in terms
of her designs
and the story of each piece. Each of her embroidered, painted,
textile pieces
takes the reader right back in time.<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sXykx_8kvOU/US00gXRFCPI/AAAAAAAAAgI/M71-S6VUGxI/s1600/71WnoqQia1L.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="178" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sXykx_8kvOU/US00gXRFCPI/AAAAAAAAAgI/M71-S6VUGxI/s200/71WnoqQia1L.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
She uses Bayeux
stitch in ways that I hadn’t considered and creates some
gorgeous effects
simply by using a thread I’d never considered. One of her pieces
is a sampler
of Bayeux stitch
and I am now really interested in trying some of the techniques
she has used.
Although she doesn’t always give detailed instruction, she does
write enough
that an embroiderer with some knowledge and skill could easily
reproduce what
she’s done in their own fashion.<br />
<br />
This is a book for inspiration. It is a book to linger over and
let your
imagination take flight, to get lost in, to dream over. If you
want a “how –
to” book this isn’t the one for you. If, however, you want to
feed your creative
spirit then this book is exactly what you should put on that
wish list…<br />

There is something absolutely magical about origami. It amazes me that you can take a flat piece of paper, fold it a couple times and a three-dimensional object appears. I'm not an origami master, but I can make a couple of things, and I'm pretty good at following origami instructions.<br />
<br />
My new favorite creation is the crane. I think I was inspired to try the crane when I found the treasury of miniatures that I posted for <a href="http://thechillydog.blogspot.com/2012/12/fun-find-friday_28.html" target="_blank">Fun Find Friday</a> in late December. Not only do cranes look cool, legend has it that a person who makes 1000 cranes will have their wish granted. <a href="http://thechillydog.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/origami-crane.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">....

Before you tackle this project, make sure you are comfortable constructing a basic <a href="http://thechillydog.blogspot.com/2013/02/origami-crane.html" target="_blank">origami crane</a>. I'll warn you now that this project is not for the faint of heart or those with shaky fingers or poor eyesight. It takes a steady hand and a bit of patience. But once you make one of these adorable little birds you will want a whole flock.<br />
