Seamless Infinity Scarf Tutorial. There are a bunch of how-to's out there on how to stitch an Infinity Scarf. But most of them require a big ol' visible seam where you sew the ends together. This is totally unnecessary and here is a quick easy way to make one without the unsightly seam. Fabric: Use fabric that is pretty stretchy. If this is going to be a winter scarf, choose a fabric that is also fairly cozy. We have found that spandex fabric is totally fine, but it's just not as nice to wear cause it tends to lay pretty flat, although if you are a year round scarf wearer, spandex would be great! I personally love to use a fuzzy knit or a heavier jersey knit, but I am from the northeast and right now we are getting hit with a pretty brutal winter and my infinity scarves have been part of my winter uniform.

Using a flexible measuring tape, determine how long you want your scarf to be. Once you have determined length, cut the fabric to the length you desire, but leave the width uncut for now. Do you want it chunkier? Knitting Crochet Sewing Crafts Patterns and Ideas!

Make your own DuhBe fabric roses | DuhBe.com. I made up this method for making handmade fabric roses based on what I know of rolled fabric roses, and the organza flowers from Reese Dixon. Rather than keep all my secrets to myself, I want to share this method with others. Some crafters will think I’m crazy for sharing my secrets for an item I sell in my Etsy shop, but I believe that sharing information contributes to the creativity of others and that is more important than me selling stuff.

That’s just my own personal philosophy on creativity. Share it – don’t hoard it! Making roses in 5 simple steps – after the break… One note before I get started with the instructions…You must be able to follow instructions very well if you attempt to make these! OK, carry on then… Choosing fabric for the roses Big important point here – you must use synthetic fabric!! Step 1 – Cut fabric into strips I fold the fabric by matching the selvedge edges, then folding again into quarters. For this sample I cut the fabric into 3″ strips.

Upcycled Sweater Boots. Floating world: stroller liner tutorial. Stroller liners are great. They brighten up dull strollers, make it easier to clean out crumbs, and disguise smudges of banana.

And around these parts every second stroller is a Maclaren the same as mine, so a colourful liner reduces the chance of me buckling Ali into the wrong one after play time at the park. My original liner went walkabout with my original stroller, so I made another one for the replacement stroller and took a few photos while I was doing it. If you want to make one too you will need: 2 pieces of cotton fabric, approx 40cm by 80cm. Measure where the holes are for the shoulder and crotch straps (Isn't crotch an awful word?) Ta da! I hope this all makes sense, but if not, or if you have any other questions please comment or email me. If you are like me and prefer to work things out by looking at pictures instead of reading through instructions check out these similar liners that Bianca and Nichola made.

Poppy Boutonniere Tutorial and GIVEAWAY!!!! CLOSED. Well here it is, by request of you, the poppy tutorial!!!! Like I mentioned before these were inspired by the Emersonmade poppies! If you rather not take the trouble to do these buy them here. All handmade and lovely. I had wanted to complete these last week but I came down with an awful sinus infection which really took the wind out of my sails. However, my good friend Cheila of What's Goin Down Episode invited me over to her new home on Friday which gave us the perfect opportunity to spend an afternoon taking pictures and making poppies. They just bought a new older home and it's lovely!

Lily and her daughter had fun dirtying their playroom with play dough and moon sand. They are a little different than the first one I made (for the better). If you want a fuller flower just cut out more flowers and create more layers. The giveaway is for the pea green poppy that is pictured on me at the top and the cluster of pink, white and beige poppies. Step 1. St ep 2. Step 4. Step 5. Step 6. 2. 3.
