RSS FeedResizeing Hat Does anyone have suggestions?
Written by admin on March 27, 2010 – 12:57 pm -I have a hat that does not fit me as snugly as I would like (especially in this windy March weather). Do you have something I could put on the inside of the hat band, like adhesive foam tape, that would improve the fit of my hat?

Drapery fabric enhances your window architectural style in any room in your home
Written by admin on March 19, 2010 – 11:33 am -
Hanging drapery fabric to your living or dining room windows will add style, control light, and enhance or obscure a view. Drapery panels are usually more formal in appearance, and are mostly heaver than curtain fabric. Typically lined, pleated, and floor-length, drapery curtains are attach by hooks to a decorative rod, and some sort of cord device that hangs behind either the left or right of the drapery panel. Choose complementary treatments in rooms that open to one anther or that share the same style furniture.
If your window styles and sizes vary within a room, use the same fabric but in different fabrications, such as classic swags and draperies. The styles and colors you wear may reveal the color you’re most comfortable living in. Whatever your style preference, don’t let your window treatment’s form obstruct its function. In formal room, choose full, flowing window treatments that complement the fabrics of the furnishings. Use pattern or color to transform a window into a formal point.
For starters, window treatment doesn’t have to be fabric. Either way, don’t overfill the room with fabrics; “less is more” in the design scheme. Choosing the right drapery fabric can make all the difference in fashioning great treatments. There are many ways of hanging sheer drapes, conventionally with a casing or eyelets, or you can use a gathered heading tape with a track or pole. Tall windows in high-ceiling room are perfect candidates for classic drapery and valance treatments.
So before you choose a window covering, consider the way your window open and close. Whatever type of curtain or drapery you select, how you top it and tie it back can have a major impact on your design schemes. Combination treatments give you freedom to manipulate the apparent size and shape of your windows. For the most pleasing look, choose drapery fabric that matches the degree of custom in each room.

How to mark quilting pattern on fabric that has a black and white pattern print?
Written by admin on March 19, 2010 – 11:32 am -I am working on my first quilt and I am trying to draw my quilting pattern onto the quilt. I chose fabric that is white filligree flowers on a black background – so drawing on the quilt is taking forever because I have to switch between two colors constantly. Does anyone know of something that will show on both the black and white and still come out when I’m done quilting? Thank you so much in advance!
