FLOSSTUBE TUTORIAL TIME – FABRIC FRAMING

April 12, 2019 By Cathy Habermann 4 Comments

Join me for the FlossTube Tutorial to see how I complete one of my popular framed finishes.

This seems to be my ‘go-to’ finish because I can use a ready made frame & load up on fun coordinating cottons, ribbons, pins…all sorts of goodies!

Click the available link to watch my FlossTube channel – The Hands On Designer.

Enjoy the Stitch

    Cathy I recently joined your group and was over to your instagram and found a picture of a small drawer with a glass knob. Did you have a class to make them or was that just in the picture? I would be interested in the instructions. Love all you do. Thank you for the freebee I love your anniversary ones. I am going to have to order the new Quilters word play. Hugs from chilly neighbors to the north Minnesota…….

      Kathy,

      Thank you for joining the group! The drawer you saw is from a class that I teach called The Top Drawer. I am scheduled to teach it at Sassy Jacks Stitchery next June. – c

    Hi! I saw that you have a tutorial on how to wrap an Embroidery hoop for finishing an Ornament? I don’t see it here.

    Desiree

    PS: Just took your class at Acorns and Threads and LOVED it?

‘17th’ - this Block Party series design is still available through your local or online shop as well as my website (the only place for PDF’s). 

Stitch as the block pincushion or just the side panel for a stunning piece to display.

Night Light NOTE: Cocoa & Grasshopper have identical symbols in the chart. 

The colors (brown & green) are used in distinctly separate areas of the chart & are easily discernible.

My sincere apologies for the charting mishap. 

Buttercup IS mentioned 2x in the color key intentionally.

Final Day of the Nashville Market Road Trip Home: Final Day of the Nashville Market Road Trip Home:

1. Read a book (I am ALL talked out🤣)
2. Keep an eye out on my weather app - we have never not had strange weather experiences on this drive home
3. Smile Bill
4. No, really smile Bill
5. Still working on those road trip snacks 
6. Worked a little on an upcoming design/class. I played with the color swatches before market, just making final decisions 👍🏻

As Bill & I finally hit the road for home, I thoug As Bill & I finally hit the road for home, I thought that I would share a peek around our room at Nashville Needlework Market ❤️

Thank you to the shops that came & continue to support my design work as well as the fabric & thread dyers (& those that cut amazing shapes from wood 😉) that I am fortunate to work alongside. 

A big thank you to Yarn Tree for once again hosting Market!

I can’t believe that I finally get to share this s I can’t believe that I finally get to share this special project❤️ - the mystery market release is revealed!

‘I’m New Here’ - not just a baby sampler, we’re calling it a Baby Story - a sweet saying that I was inspired to write not long after we found out that we were going to be grandparents! 

The small ornament is perfect for the newly born- I’ve included alternative skin tone palettes for those tiny tootsies as well as an alphabet and numbers for personalization. 

Many thanks to @chantelles141 for working behind the scenes with me to create the Baby on Board finishing boards. The DMC palette is also easy to customize. 

We did not share any of the design details before market and asked shops to ‘do their thing’ - a great many came home with charts for you!! We thank them for their support!
