Tutorial: Embroidery on Felt

August 12, 2009 by Linda Lanese

Here is a clever idea and tutorial on how to embroider on felt from Alice of futuregirl.com.  She has clear step by step instructions for this procedure. When she started making handbags, she wanted cool labels and looked into ordering them, but she didn’t like the standard options, and custom labels were way too expensive.  Her solution was to hand-embroider labels on felt.  Futuregirl.com has several fun and useful tutorials and an extraordinary blog.

Little Birds: 26 Handmade Projects to Sew, Stitch, Quilt and Love

Hey there, fellow crafters! If you’re anything like me, always on the lookout for charming projects to dive into, then “Little Birds: 26 Handmade Projects to Sew, Stitch, Quilt & Love” might just be your next obsession. This delightful collection brings together a flock of bird-themed crafts that are as fun to make as they are to display.?

From the moment I flipped through the pages, I was captivated by the variety of projects. Whether you’re into sewing, stitching, or quilting, there’s something here to tickle your fancy. The book features designs from talented artists around the globe, each bringing their unique flair to our feathered friends. Projects range from adorable soft sculptures to intricate quilts, ensuring that both beginners and seasoned crafters find something to love. ?

Now, let’s talk about the nitty-gritty. While the projects are undeniably charming, some crafters have noted that the instructions might not be detailed enough for absolute beginners. For instance, if you’re new to quilting, you might need to seek out additional resources to grasp the basics before tackling the quilt projects in this book. However, if you’re willing to put in a bit of extra effort or have some experience under your belt, you’ll find the projects both enjoyable and rewarding. ?

A heads-up for those ready to dive in: the patterns included need to be copied or enlarged before use. It’s a minor inconvenience but something to be aware of so you can gather all necessary materials beforehand. Once that’s sorted, you’ll be on your way to creating some truly delightful bird-themed crafts. ?

“Little Birds” is a charming addition to any crafter’s library. While it may present a slight challenge to novices, the end results are well worth the effort. The projects are not only fun to make but also make for heartfelt gifts and cozy home décor. So, gather your fabrics, threads, and a bit of patience, and let these little birds inspire your next crafting adventure
