crazy stitching cameo skip to main skip to sidebar 12 13 09 question for my crafters out there how many of you have used a hot fix crystal setter well i am getting one for christmas maybe sooner so that i can glam up a few things and i am not sure of how it works or how to use it for that matter the directions aren t that clear for me everything has to be quite visual for me to understand don t laugh i know some of you are the same way if you have a hot fix setter please help me out i am thinking for a quilt think of a midnight blue sky with a creamy moon and large star appliques that i want set some twinkling stars on it can the crystals be set on other things than just fabric say like on metal or plastic items i will be most grateful for your help tips hints etc for this i know you guys are wonderful in helping out others well gotta get some much needed sleep tomorrow evening starts the first evening of working till 11 30 pm ugh keep stitching cameo scribbled out by cameo 4 comments

muppets and john denver yes i have the cd lol well i am off to clean the house you know that santa cannot come and visit a dirty house you didn t know that well it s how i get my clan to help clean my son wants santa to come so he cleans wink wink it really works for the younger kiddos i have had a super clean house every year in december i haven t been stitching much since i have been working hopefully i will get some time off during the holidays and get some items finished to all of you merry christmas and happy hanukkah keep stitching cameo scribbled out by cameo 3 comments 12 1 09 hello out there i know it s been awhile again since i have posted anything life has been a bit crazy since i have been working now i do enjoy my job though dealing with some customers and employees can be difficult did you have a good thanksgiving i did sorta my family went over to my in laws for some yummy food and then i had to work for the evening yes i had to work on thanksgiving i think we were the only craft store to be open and of course we had some great deals people came out in droves it seemed i know what a couple of my gifts are too heehee right now it s raining out and it s terribly cold too the weather people have been saying that by friday it s possible that we could have snow again this year how crazy is that i am a little scared about that becuz i have no idea how to drive in the stuff except really slow but that doesn t mean the rest of my town knows to do that a little late but here is a finish that i did i am sooo proud of it and really love it i am hoping to be able to get it framed bit costly right now with holiday shopping to be done well i cannot stay on long this evening gotta get some sleep and keep the toes warm have a wonderful week and weekend i hope to be able to post again soon and more frequently keep stitching cameo scribbled out by cameo 9 comments 11 19 09 hotdog pillowcase tutorial continued ok i think i can finish the pillowcase in this post yay you will lay the body of the pillowcase face down right side on the top of the banding with the raw edges together the length of the body will be hanging way down and you will want to grasp it and accordian fold it so that it lays in the middle of the casing should sorta look like this you will see the casing at least half of it anyways since the body of the pillowcase is laying on it now you will pull up and over the edge of the casing to the top of the raw edges this will create the hot dog look the body being the hotdog the banding your condiment and the casing is the bun cute huh sorry for the boobage shot was trying to get a different view and boy did i lol now you will pin all these edges together down the entire length i tend to start in the middle and work my way to each end so that there s no hiccups you know what i mean you should get this look your hotdog now you ll take your hotdogger to the sewing machine and sew about 1 2 inch in from the raw edge now here come the fun part i used flannel for making most of my pillowcases during the retreat becuz of the fun prints that i found and they are super soft but you can use nearly any type of material for these my only caution is that when using thicker material this next step is a bit difficult you have to turn the casing inside out and pull the body out using regular cotton material was super easy but flannel can be a bit fussy once it s entirely pulled out iron it flat you will notice that all your casing and banding edges are inside and out of sight yay no more stringies at this point if you want to it s optional you can use your embroidery stitches on the machine to add a decorative border stitch to the banding the solid color and if you re really creative machine embroider someone s name to casing yea i m not lol getting to my favorite part the finished part yay if you know how to do french seams then good on ya that s what we are fixin to do to finish this pillowcase up 2 seams and you re done done done i told you this was easy now with wrong side together pin down the edge and bottom if you need to trim it to get it even do this before sewing i like to trim about a half inch down the edge and bottom to get all edge nice and even before stitching once it s pinned you will stitch a 1 4 inch seam down the side and bottom clip corners sorry for the blurry picture but it s a clipped corner now you will turn the pillowcase inside out you will be looking at the wrong side press this is soooo important be sure to push the edges close to the seam so that when you sew this edge again you will catch all the raw edges inside i found that ironing this helped to keep it neat now back to the machine and sew anywhere from a 1 2 to 5 8 inch seam making sure that you catch all the raw edge inside so that it does not show when it s turned right side out clip all your threads and press again making it pretty and taa daa you have just made the perfect pillowcase with no raw edges and it s super easy you ll be making up a storm i bet if you liked this tutorial please feel free to leave me a comment i love reading them if there are any other tutorials that you would want me to have let me know and i will do my best to post them knowledge is power keep stitching cameo scribbled out by cameo no comments 11 17 09 i m backkkk whew it s so good to be back and sleeping in my own bed with my pillow and blankies don t you agree it doesn t matter where i go or for how long i miss my bed and it s comfortable spots seriously i had a wonderful time at retreat the ladies that came were all wonderful and a bit on the crazy side omg some were down right a joy to hang out with winky if you read this you are a hoot i thought that i took a ton of stuff to work on but evidently i didn t i finished a small flower quilted wall hanging in minutes it seemed and put another quilt wall hanging together and then started the addiction that i only have lisa to blame for i made 10 yes 10 pillowcases over the course of 4 days there were soooo simple and easy to do they are called hot dog pillowcases and don t take but about 15 minutes to sew and only 3 seams i plan on sharing the tutorial with you in this post how nice am i tell me i need to know hahahaha i hope to be able to attend more retreats like this in the future gotta start saving my pennies again we were out in the boonies smiles at a great lodge the meeting room was wide open and quite nice to sew in the dorm rooms provided great privacy and was spacious too the food was delicious it was so great to be able to get up in the morning with breakfast ready to eat no cooking cleaning or worrying about anything but sewing our little fingers off i don t think that i have laughed my butt off more at my new friends than i have in my whole life we truly let our hair down and just enjoyed each other s company i will go again now on to the tutorial it s really easy to do just remember this little equation for the fabric needed you will need a 3 inch band 9 inches for the casing and 27 inches for the body of the pillowcase 3 x 9 27 neat huh i am showing you my godson s present for christmas with the cut pieces that you will need the brown print is the body 27 inches the brown strip 3 inches and the green print 9 inches will all make the pillowcase from here you will fold the band in half and iron it flat this will create a nice edged banding for the pillow case and helps break up the 2 prints now you will lay it on the green print casing with all the raw edges facing in the same direction doing this will make sure we have no raw edges to deal with now i will have to stop here and make another post for tomorrow since it s photo rich already blogspot limits the amount of photo memory sooooo tomorrow will be the finishing part i know that you will stay tuned for that keep stitching cameo scribbled out by cameo 1 comment 11 8 09 great news i know i let my posts slide once again smack me upside the head with wet noodles lol but i have the greatest news to share with you as most of you know that i have been working at michaels as seasonal help as a cashier and whatever else they need me to do well this saturday was a demo day and of course i was picked to do it really fun goo ey fun making snowmen with snow tex product anyways boss man walks by as i was finishing up one of the snowmen and says in a very serious tone i need to see you in my office after you are done with that no eye contact and he walks to the back of the store my heart fell i just knew that i was going to be written up for something stupid that i did or that i was getting the axe so i am sweating beads as i am trying to prolong the finishing of the snowman i get back there to the office and timidly knock on the door boss man still has serious look on his face and guess what i got a promotion how awesome is that i am no longer just a cashier but a glorified one my official title is front end supervisor i will keep an eye on the registers be over a few of the cashiers and keep the front end of the store in order you guys have no idea how happy this has made me after being a stay at home mom for 12 yrs and thinking that i would never get a job becuz of the long space of time not being the workforce my heart just soared i wore a shit eating grin all day long afterwards floating on cloud 9 you laugh that s ok this weekend starting on thursday and ending sunday i will be gone to a quilter s retreat my very first i am told by some of the veterans that go to them alot that i will

scribbled out by cameo 18 comments 10 30 09 finally a post i know that i haven t been able to post in awhile and it kills me that i haven t kept in touch with you guys my job is going well i had a little trouble remembering some procedures for credit card and check policies but all in all it s good i didn t realize how much i would be on my feet though so i am learning to take it slower than my usual fast pace i also learned that i am ocd in the worst way i go around straightening the shelves and all the products which we are supposed to do but i go as far as all the labels in the same direction argh i am sooo nuts but on to better and brighter things my swap partner for brooke s board interactive yahoo group has received his item from me so now i can share it with you i know that
