  • Sewing Machines and Sergers
    Welcome To Janome Institute 2011- Your Education Connection September 3 7, at The Marriott World Center Resort In Orlando i Expand Your Horizons j How about some good news, for a change? The economic recovery has been a mixed bag for the sewing industry. Customers are buying... but they’re also holding onto their purse strings a little more tightly. They’re taking longer to make that big machine purchase. But, we’ve clearly seen, when they’re excited about a machine, they will gladly make the purchase. And that’s good news. Because at Janome Institute 2011 we’re going to unveil a machine that will cause your customers to be very excited. This top-of-the-line machine is going to redefine Janome sewing the way we did with the MC8000, MC10000, and MC11000. And it’s going to cause quite a stir among your customers. Believe me, people you’ve never seen before are going to stop by your store just to see it in person. You better have your demo ready, because you’ll be doing it a lot. (It wouldn’t be a bad idea, either, to order some extra cash register tape.) On Opening Night, Saturday, September 3rd, this machine will be revealed for the first time ever to attendees of Janome Institute 2011 in Orlando. You’re going to want to be one of them. Because starting the next day, you’ll get to try out the new machine and get the sales training and product knowledge you need to become a certified dealer.

  • Hand Woven Biscornu Pincushion for MAFA 2015 Side View of 8 Sided
    Hand Woven Biscornu Pincushion for MAFA 2015 Side view of 8 sided pincushion (Biscornu) Have Fun! This particular shape is called a biscornu, meaning "irregular, quirky, complicated, bizarre". And quirky it is... Originally, they were made with linen or other embroidered fabrics. The trick to this pincushion is that the two squares are sewn together, not directly on top of each other as usual, but with a relative 45 degrees rotation. That's it! Sounds easy enough, right? Here is a link to see a good video of the sewing process: A simple biscornu cushion for you to sew by Debbie Shore http://youtu.be/l79t_Q1NJiA Instructions: First: Cut 2 squares 4 1/2" x 4 1/2"of handwoven fabric (matching fabric or contrasting fabrics. Be creative!). Stabilize handwoven fabrics with fusible interfacing if necessary. Use 1/4" seam allowances throughout this project. 1. fold each square in half lengthwise and widthwise and finger press, then make a small clip or notch at the edges to mark the half-way point on each edge 2. With right sides together, place one square on top of the other so that the top square’s side edge is positioned 1/4″ to the left of the half-way mark on the top edge of the lower square. Make sure the parallel raw edges are aligned. 3. Using a 1/4″ seam allowance, begin stitching at the half-way point of the lower square, moving towards the corner. Stop 1/4″ before you reach the corner of the lower square. 4. Here comes the tricky part.

I show how trade cards and object narratives engage with the same nexus of commercial culture, objects, and humans, and share a mutual resistance to “autonomous garments”—petticoats, shoes, gowns, and other garments depicted independently of the human form. Object narratives, read in tandem with trade cards, suggest that the growth of distance between persons and things, as opposed to their collapse into each other, constitutes a central narrative in the period’s commod- ity culture and fiction. Object narratives, even as they transform coats, waistcoats, petticoats, slippers, and shoes into first-person narrators, actively work against the entanglement of human and material spheres. Together these genres place sartorial commodities under human con- trol, emphasizing the human subject’s agency over those items worn closest to the self. in recent years, things have captured the imagination of eighteenth-century scholars.

  • THE POLKA DOT PINCUSHION September - December, 2010
    Volume 5, Issue 3 THE POLKA DOT PINCUSHION September - December, 2010 Dear friends, September, 2010 Inside this issue: We certainly have had a long, hot summer. It seems that each day brought either record temps or record humidity. I never had the chance to say, “Well, at least it‟s a dry heat.” That didn‟t happen this News and Views 1 year. Is it just my imagination or did we go directly from April to August without stopping in May, June and Class Listings 2 July? I hope we don‟t go directly to December without stopping at the months in between. They are my Calendar 3 favorites. I love the “start over” feeling in September when all the yellow busses are on the road and I can Calendar 4 hear the marching band practicing at the high school. October always reminds me of the gnarled apple tree in my parents‟ backyard that was just right for climbing. When I got home from school, I would take a book, Class Listings 5 climb the tree, pick an apple and sit. The anticipation of celebrations that begin in November are always Special Notes 6 painted in jewel-toned colors. And of course, December: frantic, fun, sometimes dysfunctional, yet always Special Events 7 memorable. Well, September is here and I love the changes that it will bring. What does this have to do with The Polka Dot Pincushion, you ask? Even if you didn‟t ask, I‟ll tell you. We have lots of changes in At The Polka Dot store.

  • Diamond Pincushion
    Diamond Pincushion You will need two fabrics for this pincushion. The top fabric (Fabric 1) is fussy-cut to create a distinctive pattern on top of the pincushion. This makes it a bit difficult to suggest an exact amount of fabric needed, but a generous approximate has been suggested in the materials list. For the English paper piecing technique, we have tacked (basted) the seam allowance around the edges but you could use paper piece glue instead. Materials • Fabric 1: approximately 8in (20cm) wide x 8½in high (21.5cm) – Flowerleaf Blue (100242) Bon Voyage collection • Fabric 2: 10in (25.5cm) wide x 5½in high (14cm) – Cookie Stripe Blue (130062) Tea Towel collection • Thick photo paper or stiff paper, for example, 150g–250g weight • Hand sewing needle and threads to match fabric • Fiberfill or wool filling for stuffing Making the Pincushion 1 On the pattern sheet, the tall diamond shape is for the fussy-cut top of the pincushion, while the wider, fatter shape with a dotted line is for the base. The dotted line shows where you will need to press the edge later, to give the pincushion its pyramid shape. Using the thick paper, cut out four of each shape. 2 On Fabric 1, place the diamond paper shapes on the wrong side of the fabric, positioning the shapes exactly on the same patterned area of the fabric (see Fig A). For Fabric 2, position the paper patterns as shown. Trace around the shapes and then cut them out with a ¼in (6mm) seam allowance. Fig A 3 Place the paper shape against the wrong side of the fabric shape, fold the seam allowance around the paper edge and tack (baste) through all the layers to attach (Fig B).
