Sew an Animal Print Infinity Scarf

-
One of my grandchildren asked me to make something special for him to give to someone for Christmas. He is such a sweetheart and seldom asks for me to do anything, so how could I refuse? After all, it takes less than an hour to cut out and sew one of these animal print infinity scarves.

Animal Print Infinity Scarf

Materials and tools required:
  1. One-fourth Yard of 54-55 Inch Light-Weight Fleece Fabric
  2. Matching Thread
  3. Sewing Machine Unless You Plan to Sew by Hand
  4. Hand Sewing Needle to  Sew the Opening Closed After Turning the Scarf Right Side Out


Fold the fourth of a yard of fabric up the middle and with right sides touching. You will be sewing a seam on the wrong side of fabric, along the longest length of the fabric to form a tube 54-55 inches long. Just follow the tutorial I posted months ago. It can be found at this link: http://mimimine.blogspot.com/search?q=Infinity+Scarf.

Remember to start the seam a couple of inches from the beginning of the "tube" and stop sewing a couple of inches from the end. This way it is easier to sew the ends of the tube together once you turn it right side out.

People, this is as easy as pie, even for the beginner, and can be whipped up in almost no time for those last minute gifts.

Relax and have some fun making some of these!

How to Make and Use a Stencil Using Cricut Expression

My family and many of my friends know how much I adore French inspired creations and design. The flourish of the curly-cues and curves are so appealing. An image of the Eiffel Tower in any form sets my imagination into high gear. It will come as no surprise to people who know me well that when I feel the desire to get creative, it is often with a French flair. So, when pondering what to make for Joanne, a dear friend of mine, I designed the stenciled pillow covers shown in this post.  I constructed the pillow cover/shams myself from a twin sized white cotton sheet and embellished the opening edges with black grosgrain ribbon before sewing the side seam together. If you prefer not to sew your own, you can purchase a pair and begin from there. This image could be reduced a little in size and applied to hand towels, etc. My Cricut  Expression was used to make the stencil for the design and the cartridge used was Storybook.  The design used was a flower design which is associated

One of the best things about summer is the abundance of fresh fruit and vegetables. Farmer's markets and roadside stands boast baskets of all sorts of beautiful, tempting regional produce. Georgia is called the Peach State but the area where we live in South Carolina grows the most juicy, sweet and delicious peaches you could ever hope to eat. The month of July, particularly around Independence Day is when the best (in my opinion) are ripe and ready to be harvested and sold. Home-Churned Fresh Peach Ice Cream Our family eagerly anticipates the appearance of those beautiful peaches! South Carolina Grown Freestone Peaches There are all sorts of delicious ways to prepare and eat this luscious and delectable fruit. They are simply scrumptious when peeled and sliced like this: Peeled and Sliced Freestone Peaches You can add a splash of milk or coconut milk and a little sugar, but it really is not necessary.

In an earlier post, I told you a little about our trip to Biltmore House and Gardens in mid-March. Currently the Biltmore has an astonishing collection of costumes on display throughout the estate. Fashionable Romance Wedding Gowns in Film is truly a smashing event. Some of the films featured in this collection were nominated for prestigious film awards. Some were actually winners of the Academy Awards for Best Costuming. Being the old-fashioned soul and possessing a hopelessly romantic heart, I was totally smitten with this collection of spectacular costumes from romantic films! In this post, I will continue where I left off in this previous post  with some additional wonderful costumes from a number of other great films.  The last part of this post will take us to Biltmore's Antler Hill Village for some history on the Biltmore family marriages, honeymoons and other interesting family ties and connections! On a previous visit to Biltmore to see the fabulous collec
