If you've already gotten the Special Holiday Issue of Fat Quarterly (and if you haven't, get cracking!), you've seen the lovely coverage they've given to Fa La La La Felt (many many thanks yous to the Fat Quarterly folks!!). As part of a holiday round-up, I remade my Oopsy Daisy stockings from the book... following my original instructions. What an exercise it was! And here are the results, hanging from the bar. I riffed on the original pattern a little (less daisy, more asterisk!) and used some of the Kate Spain Christmas fabric the FQ team sent me. I'm also including a free tutorial from the book (over on the Lark Crafts site). Happy stocking making!Monday, October 25, 2010

I just saw your book at Barnes and noble this weekend. I picked it up looking for Christmas ornament ideas for Small Fox's swap and was so pleasantly surprised to see your name on the cover. It's a gorgeous book and I love your bell ornaments in it.
ReplyDeleteI have this fab book as a digital book. This design is one of my favourites - I've even adapted it as a wreath to match :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rebekah! And what a great idea, Cate. I'd love to see your wreath!
ReplyDeleteWill you help me make some of these? I've been itching to pull out the old sewing machine and this would be a perfect project! Maybe we can schedule a crafty afternoon someday soon?
