Campbell Soup Diary: November 2014

http://campbellsoupdiary.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Thursday, November 27, 2014. The Star of the Show. I love embroidery hoops as an alternative to traditional straight line framing. A round element added to a favorite photo wall is such an unexpected and welcome design feature. Embroidery hoops are fun, but even sometimes a new twist on the trendy craft alternative is a welcome change. Just a simple red version for the smaller star is a great pop of color and perfect for Christmas decorating. Fabrics: Cori Dantini "Merry Stitches". Wenn ich Sachen nähe, ...

blu-shed: half way...

http://blu-shed.blogspot.com/2014/04/half-way.html

Monday, 21 April 2014. I promised to post more often didn't i? Erm, that didn't happen, sorry. well, i'm halfway through the 'make art that sells'. Online course and it's been a whirlwind. I don't want to write a saccharine oh-my-god-it's-amazing type blog post, i want to write something honest because actually, a lot of it hasn't been amazing, but that's because of my own hangups, not because of the course. (it's ok, i promise i won't say the phrase 'an amazing journey' a la the Xfactor.). Anyway.th...

Campbell Soup Diary: May 2015

http://campbellsoupdiary.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html

Wednesday, May 27, 2015. Not Quite My "Tah-Dah" Moment. I read a post. This past week with tips for bloggers suggesting a few do's and don't's for what readers are looking for (or not looking for) when they visit. Blogs The tip that will always provide the biggest challenge for me is to keep text/content short. For a long-winded gal like me, who actually considers this my personal online journal that others just happen to be able to peek in and read, I don't seem to know any other way to do it. Fabrics: ...

Scraps of quilting fabric in different designs and colours for the fabric circles. 9 inch length of thin ribbon or linen thread for the closure. 3 use the embroider...

Campbell Soup Diary: Experimenting

http://campbellsoupdiary.blogspot.com/2015/05/experimenting.html

Wednesday, May 6, 2015. I've been doing a lot of experimenting these days. things that I've had on my to-do/to-try list for quite some time. When I had visited the Edyta Sitar workshop. At the beginning of the year, as part of the workshop we received a kit for her Little Butterflies. After working with these sweet butterflies, I knew I wanted to repeat this project, but with a modern twist. then it hit me that the handcrafted prints. I also really like how the project looks totally different by framing ...

Campbell Soup Diary: Mother's Pickledish

http://campbellsoupdiary.blogspot.com/2015/05/mothers-pickledish.html

Wednesday, May 13, 2015. Which crafter or quilter doesn't have at least one Pinterest board filled with inspiration and projects that keep calling, "make me, make me"? I found a mini quilt project recently, and as soon as I saw it, I knew I had to make it. here is my inspiration pin. Since I didn't have the book that was mentioned, I decided to use the free Pickledish pattern. Drawn lines to the arch template. I. Sn't that the beauty of a paper pieced pattern. just sew on the lines? And even my "big guy"...

Campbell Soup Diary: October 2014

http://campbellsoupdiary.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

Thursday, October 30, 2014. All Wrapped Up and Advent Calendar Idea. I often find that sometimes I get more excited about giving gifts for Christmas than I do about getting them. When I have the time, I really like to make each one personal with fun little accents and extra details. besides half the fun of getting a gift is the eye-candy wrapping, right? Oft finde ich es fast schöner Geschenke zu geben, als Geschenke zu bekommen. Ich liebe es, jedes mit kleinen, feinen Details individuell zu gestalten.

Campbell Soup Diary: April 2015

http://campbellsoupdiary.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

Wednesday, April 29, 2015. Sometimes you stumble onto an artist's work that really speaks to you. as if your heart actually hears something, even though you may not even be able to put it into words what exactly you heard. For me Cori Dantini. Her latest fabric collection "The Makers". Series holds a special place in my heart, especially since it covers a certain theme that is near and dear to me. I had to sneak a sweet little freezer paper gift tag. In there somewhere just for fun. Are you a maker too?
