Halloween Is Here!

404_BewitchedHalloweenHanging Time to dress up and get ready for all those scary ghosts, goblins and witches who will be knocking on the door for tricks (on you) or treats (for them)!

Our witches have found their brooms and are ready to fly off into the night until next year.  Cash in on a special price for the kits before Halloween.  Get ready while you are in the holiday mood for fun this Halloween and be ready next year – no pressure!

405_GoulishGirlHanging

Our lovely Bewitched Halloween Wall Hanging Witch above has a stunning green complexion complete with large wart.  A terrific addition to your Halloween decor next year.  Appliqué her with felted 100% wool fabric.  Her sistie-ugly, Ghoulish Girl to the left, has the same skin problem including the HUGE nose!  Ghoulish Girl is created in fun to do Needle Felting laying thin layers of 100% wool roving on a design you stamp on the wool background fabric.  Both of these raving beauties have patterns and complete kits to make them for your home.  The kits come with the vintage wooden quill bobbin to hang them.

Happy Halloween to all of you!  Robin

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
