Hello! Please note: This is a PDF pattern download, not the actual ornament. This is a pattern only and does not include materials. This pattern is written in English. Pattern No. 2 - Mrs. Claus This ongoing 'Twas the Night pattern series is inspired by Clement C. Moore's 1823 poem, A Visit From St. Nicholas (more commonly known as The Night Before Christmas). This is the second pattern in the series and more will follow. This detailed, intermediate level sewing pattern shows you how to make a colorful, embroidered, sparkly Mrs. Claus ornament. Its vintage look is perfect for your Christmas tree or for special handmade gifting. The ornament is sewn entirely by hand. Choose your own colors, or follow my pre-chosen colors of felt and floss (https://mmmcrafts.blogspot.com/p/twas-night-ornament-series.html). For more information on this ornament series, as well as detailed color guides, please visit this page on my blog: https://mmmcrafts.blogspot.com/p/twas-night-ornament-series.html HOW HARD ARE THESE TO MAKE? I'm often told my sewing patterns are more akin to a craft class! I give very detailed instructions so you aren't left wondering. While this is not a beginner's sewing project, it is probably easier than you think! If you can do precision cutting of small pieces, basic hand stitches (running stitch, whipstitch, and backstitch), work with seed beads and sequins, and are familiar with basic sewing and embroidery terms, then you can make this project and make it well! HERE'S WHY: this pattern utilizes a Sulky brand water-soluble stabilizer which makes putting the ornament together easy, fast and accurate. The design prints or copies directly on the stabilizer, which is then adhered to the felt, and you embroider/bead right on top of it! NO TEDIOUS PATTERN TRACING OR EMBROIDERY TRANSFER. Fantastic! (If you can't use the Sulky stabilizer, I've also included tips for that.) The 23-page Mrs. Claus sewing pattern features: - 3.5 x 5 inch wool felt Mrs. Claus figurine ornament with embroidery/beading - Tiny accessories: a wrapped Christmas gift with tag, and either a mistletoe ball or an apple/orange - 3.5 inch hanging loop - Sheet with 20 years of dates to embroider on the back of the ornament - Neat, digitally drawn, actual-sized pattern pieces that do not overlap - Step-by-step, detailed instructions with clear, professionally drawn diagrams and color sample photos - Resources section with stitching diagrams, tips, and supply links Materials used to make this ornament include: wool or wool-blend felts, cotton pipe cleaners, unfinished 20 mm and 8 mm wood beads, embroidery floss, seed beads, sequins, stiffened felt, card stock, ribbon, stuffing, and a Sulky printable stabilizer. A complete list of materials is in the photo of the pattern page above. Zoom in to read through it. This pattern is in PDF format on 8.5 x 11 inch paper, so you can print it from your regular printer at home on standard paper and printable stabilizer, as many times as you need for personal use. This pattern PDF will be available for INSTANT DOWNLOAD once your payment is completed! NOTE: These decorations have small parts and may present a choking hazard. These are not decorations designed for children under the age of three. COTTAGE INDUSTRY SELLERS: If you are an enterprising home sewer, it is OK to make items with your own clever hands to sell from this pattern as long as you include a pattern credit.

Hello! Please note: This is a PDF pattern download, not the actual ornament! This does not include materials. This pattern is written in English. Pattern no. 11 - Lady Dancing This detailed sewing pattern shows you how to make colorful felt embroidered lady dancer ornaments. Perfect for your Christmas tree or for special handmade gifting. The ornament is sewn entirely by hand. Choose your own colors, or use my color guides found here: http://mmmcrafts.blogspot.com/p/twelve-days.html). I’ve always loved the traditional Twelve Days of Christmas song, so I designed this series of hand sewn folk ornaments for each of the twelve days, based on the original carol from 1780. The order is a bit different towards the end from the modern song*, and day four is colly bird, an old English term for blackbird. (Calling bird was substituted in later.) Read more about the series here on my blog: http://mmmcrafts.blogspot.com/p/twelve-days.html *A supplement pattern, Modern Numbering, is now available in my shop to easily re-number the patterns 9-12 to match the modern song, if you so prefer! (None other is needed, because the original and modern carol are numbered the same up through number 8, Maid a-Milking.) The 17-page Lady Dancing pattern features: - 4 x 5.25 inch wool felt lady dancing ornament with embroidery - 3.5 inch hanging loop - Neat, digitally drawn, actual-sized pattern pieces that do not overlap - Step-by-step, detailed instructions with clear, professionally drawn diagrams and color sample photos - Resources section with stitching diagrams, tips and supply links This pattern PDF will be available for INSTANT DOWNLOAD once your payment is completed! You will get an automatic email from Etsy with your download links. Materials used to make these ornaments are commonly available. They include: Sulky stabilizer, wool or wool-blend felts, wood beads, embroidery floss, cotton pipe cleaner, chenille stem, and stuffing. A complete list of materials is in the photo of the pattern page above. Zoom to read through it. HOW HARD ARE THESE TO MAKE? If you can do precision cutting, basic hand stitches (running stitch, whipstitch, backstitch and French knot) and are familiar with sewing and embroidery terms, then you can make this project and make it well! HERE'S WHY: this pattern utilizes a Sulky brand water-soluble stabilizer which makes putting the ornament together easy, fast and accurate. Simply print or copy the pattern to the stabilizer, adhere it to the felt, and embroider right on the lines. NO TEDIOUS PATTERN TRACING OR EMBROIDERY TRANSFER. Fantastic!

This is a project only a mother could love. Meaning, it's a great introduction to sewing for kids AND these magnets are very entertaining (and safe) for babies. I had a lot of fun with the color combinations and got creative with buttons and ribbon as well. But mostly, they made my fridge a colorful wonderland for the baby which means less scaling cupboards and getting underfoot as I'm cooking! I got the idea from this pin and sort of went from there. The magnet is inside the felt which reduces the strength of the magnet, so these are good for play, not for holding important paperwork! And remember things like magnets and buttons are choking hazards so use strong/thick thread and knot everything in place (or just embellish with embroidery) and supervise baby. Here's what you need to get started: Felt Scissors Pen/Pencil, disappearing ink or not Needle & Thread (I used DMC floss) Cookie Cutters (stencil, etc. or just freehand it) Magnets (from Michaels, JoAnn, Hobby Lobby etc.) Stuffing, batting, fabric scraps, cotton, etc. Buttons and ribbon (optional) Start by tracing your pattern onto your felt. Fold or stack 2 layers of felt and cut out your pattern (to get 2 pieces). I cut a smaller heart in a contrasting color as well. Sew desired embellishments to one of the pieces (the other piece will be the back and doesn't need decoration). I'm going to show how to use blanket stitch to attach the small and large hearts. Start by inserting needle from the back at the edge of the smaller heart. Pull through leaving a 2" tail. Now insert the needle from top to bottom about 1/8" to the right and 1/8" down inside the smaller heart. Pull almost all the way through, leaving a small loop. Insert needle back to front at the edge of the small heart, just above the last stitch... ...And pull the needle through the loop left from the last 2 stitches. Give the thread a tug upward and to the right to tighten. Note: the following 2 steps will repeat to completion. Insert needle front to back 1/8" right and 1/8" down, leaving a small loop... In one motion, insert needle back to front at the edge of the heart and through the loop. Pull taut. Continue this way (needle down inside the heart, needle up on the edge of the heart, catching the loop as you bring the needle up) until you have stitched all the way around. End with needle down and tie the tails in a knot. Now you're ready to attach the front and back pieces! Stack the pieces and rethread your needle. Blanket stitch is slightly different now since we are working on the edge of 2 pieces the same size. See photos. We want the tail (which will later be knotted) in-between the layers, so insert your needle in the back piece from front to back (inside to back?). Pull through leaving a 2" tail. Like this: Insert the needle over and down (diagnoal) leaving a loop as before... Pull through the loop (no need to go back to front like before, since we are working on the edge) Repeat around, leaving a 1" opening. Stuff Slip a magnet inside against the back piece And continue stitching to close. End by inserting the needle to the inside next to the tail from the start. Tie off your tails and push the thread to the inside. Fin. Here are some of the first magnets that I made, before I thought to fill them. Dorky, I know, but they're quick, easy and fun to make and the baby loves them! I would love to know if you make some, and what ideas you come up with! Feel free to post pictures on the Facebook page!

"I love to make many of the ornaments that hang on my tree. Often they have a sentimental theme or remind me of particular things. My family live in Portugal, and I visit every summer when there is an abundance of figs. So I decided to make a fig ornament for my tree this year. It is made from scrap velvet fabric for a luxurious feel and sparkles because of all the glass seed beads. Visit the site for the free pattern."

we're currently shacking up in a beachside resort while we look for more permanent digs. as well as it's fair share of 'weekenders', there are some other 'residents' here. our small folk have become part of a little posse of small folk who live here. yesterday we were invited to a birthday party for one of aforementioned posse. a wee treasure bag was stitched this morning then passed over to the smalls to fill. they chose four found treasures, "one from each of us, mama". simple. happy. from us to you. these treasure bags are easy to make. here's how i go about it. time needed a cup of tea and a peppermint ball materials a small piece of wool felt a glass a pencil embroidery floss sewing needle scissors firstly choose a glass about the size of the treasure bag you will be making. fold your felt piece over and place the glass on top. use your pencil and draw around the bottom half of the glass, leaving the top of the circle open. then, draw a line from one side to the other. i like to make mine a wave, but you can make it any shape you like. then, cut them out. you need two pieces. then, choose your floss. take three of the six strands and thread your needle. start with an anchoring knot on the inside of one of the pieces. then, stitch your pieces together. blanket stitch your way around the bag. start and finish your blanket stitch about 1 cm from the top on each side. nice clear blanket stitch guide here then, stitch some handles. choose a different color floss, take three strands and thread your needle but do not knot (te he!) the end of your floss. stitch a simple running stitch across one side of the bag and then the other. once you have stitched all the way around your bag, knot the ends of the floss together to form one handle. then, thread your needle with the other three strands of floss and repeat the running stitch handle, but start your stitching on the other side of the bag. you'll then have two handles, one on either side of your bag. then, fill with treasures, pull the handles so the opening gathers, and you are done. simple. happy.
