Quilter's Plaid - The first quilt pattern of 2022! from Selvage Blog


I love the plaid vibe of this quilt! The dark, light and medium values from my stash play well together and give a nice translucent look. This easy pattern can turn stash into gifts for loved ones fast.

You could make it scrappy or use some repeating fabric squares in horizontal or vertical rows as I've done in this sample quilt. The number of squares that are repeated vary. 

See this pattern in my Etsy shop here: Quilter's Plaid. Instant download, start creating now!

Scissor Case -large from Threads On My Socks


 I just completed a new pattern for a large scissor case. This one, is perfect to hold 8-9" scissors. It is made much like my smaller version for embroidery scissors. 

I am a collector of scissors & it wasn't intentional. I use my rotary cutter quite often while I'm preparing a project for sewing but sometimes I reach for scissors instead. And never mind the fact, that those rotary cutters still freak me out. I have seen many a terrible accident with them & I'm always as careful as ever when I use mine. But scissors are just so ...

aufgefüllt / filled in from quilts und mehr

 In den beiden letzten Tagen habe ich endlich meinen Shop bei ansalia (click hier) mit all meinen Täschli aufgefüllt und zudem bis jetzt auch noch mit 2 Quilts von mir. Bin gespannt, ob ich überhaupt etwas verkaufe, aber ich sage mir, wenn ich es nicht probiere, geht nichts ;-)

In the last two days I finally filled in my shop at ansalia (click here) with all my little bags and I even have put 2 of my quilts in it. Now I am very curious to find out if I will sell anything of it but I told myself I have ...

Little Happy Bag pattern from Threads On My Socks

 


I wanted to share an idea for a bag front, using my pattern 'Little Happy Bag'. 

I have recently been completely captivated with cross stitch. This guy has been sitting & waiting for ten years or so, in my pinterest pins. So, one day, instead of doing all the things I was supposed to do....I had a wonderful time stitching him. I made the wreath around him as I went along. And changed some thread colors, to what I had on hand. So, that tells me...that I have gotten comfortable with this cross stitching adventure. This is only my ...

Popcorn Fun & more - New Patterns in my shop from Threads On My Socks


Fun Holiday stitching is underway in my studio. Some fun little mousey designs to embroider on pillows, pouches or make into wall hangings. 

I design the PDF patterns for a full picture scenerio but they are easily manupulated. You can stitch the design in parts, choosing only what you need for your project. I've had lots of feedback on this and it seems to be a favorite feature of my patterns. I like to use the crayon coloring method on mine too but that is totally optional. My designs include full size patterns, thread & crayon color charts & full instructions ...

mother's day sewing from Threads On My Socks



I've been sewing more little happy bags. I'm sort of in a pink mode, maybe girly....oh bother....I just love pink! I'm making the bags for Mother's Day, to send to sisters, friends & of course Mom. We usually have a little get-together at Mom's but I suppose this year that will not happen. I am still going to see my Mom....just won't hug her, (coronavirus adjustments) instead I'll fill a bag with a little happy & hugs. Homemade cookies comes to mind!


These bags really sew up quickly and are layer cake ...

La Droguerie

A little trip to Paris last week. And for me, going to Paris means visiting and shopping at La Droguerie, my favorite haberdasher's shop. They have their own production and dyeing of great quality yarns. In this wonderful shop you can find quilting fabrics, Liberty fabrics, all sorts of threads, buttons, beads, ribbons... as well as catalogues with their great patterns for children or adults.

I remember when this shop was created in 1975, I was one of their first customer and so happy to find cashmere yarn, out of which I knitted a sweater for the one who ...
