Halloween Witches Are A Hit

Our witches are the most popular gals this Halloween season.

Make one of these "beauties" in wool appliqué or needle felted appliqué.  Either one will make quite the statement for your home decorating for Halloween.

 

Ghoulish Girl

Enjoy Needle Felting this beauty on a 100% felted wool background.  The Ghoulish Girl  is felted with wool roving using a single felting needle....although a 3 needle multi tool would work wonders too. 
Add layers of wool roving to create interest and texture in her face and clothes.  Lots of fun to do an "appliqué" version of needle felting!

Enjoy a Complete Kit that includes:

  • Pattern
  • Wool Background
  • 100% Wool Roving
  • Felting Needles
  • #8 Perle Cotton
  • PLUS Wooden Quill to hang her from.

Bewitched Halloween Wall Hanging

Decorate your home with a "charming" witch for Halloween.  She is lovely with a green wart on her green complexion....just what you need to greet all the ghosts and goblins who want some treats.

Enjoy Wool Appliqué with 100% Felted Wool and appliqué with #8 Perle Cotton.  Hang your Bewitched gal from a vintage quill once used in a fabric mill as a bobbin for yarn and placed in a shuttle to make the fabric.  Use some funky wire or find cording to thread through the quill.  Adds more interest to your work.

Our Complete Kit includes:

  • Felted Wool
  • #8 Perle Cotton to Appliqué
  • Needle
  • Step-By-Step Instructions
  • PLUS the Wooden Quill to hang your witch

New Christmas Freebie for you

It is now only 25 days to the BIG Christmas Day.  Whip up a few tea towels or make ornaments with our December Freebie design . I embroidered Santa holding a mini Christmas tree on a Sage Green striped tea towel.  He only took a couple of hours one night to complete.  A hint for you to speed your embroidery.  Thread a crewel embroidery needle for each of the colors in your design.  You won’t always be pulling the thread out and changing color.  This little cutie would make a great ornament too.  Just do the embroidery on muslin and finish in your favorite way.  FUN! I used our handy dandy Transfer-Eze to print the Freebie Santa and finger press on our Dunroven House tea towel.  The Freebie design can be put on your light box to trace directly onto the fabric – BUT – toweling is a little thicker and rougher than muslin.  Using Transfer-Eze solves the problem.  The smooth Transfer-Eze film put on your towel gives you a nice design line to see and a smooth surface to stitch on.  T

Transfer-Eze Embroidery Magic

Lots of us have been having a wonderful time using Transfer-Eze , the NEW water soluble film on paper backing you can use with your printer.  Instead of the tedious task of tracing embroidery designs onto fabric you can print the design on the Transfer-Eze. I printed a snowmen for a new design twice – one for Embroidery and one for Needle Felting on wool fabric.  Just pull the Transfer-Eze film off the paper backing.  To conserve the paper, I cut off one snowman and still have 2/3 of the paper left to print on again later! Dark fabrics are nearly impossible to trace an embroidery design on as the light from your light box doesn’t go through the dark fabric.  Transfer-Eze is just the ticket!   Finger press your printed design on the dark fabric.  I found the Transfer-Eze adhered better to the fabric after the fabric was washed to remove the sizing. The printed design shows beautifully on the film pressed on the dark red fabric. This is going to be EASY to embroider!   Add your hoop
