It was the fall of 2013. Some of you may not have even owned your business in the yarn industry yet, while others of you had been at it for well over 20 years. Some of you had not yet become parents; others were close to becoming empty nesters. A lot can change in five years, but of course, a lot can stay the same. Five years ago, Yarn Market News made a change. Because of dwindling advertising dollars, we announced that we would be publishing three issues a year instead of five. And this issue marks our first all-digital issue, born out of both a desire to go green and to help the magazine’s struggling bottom line.

  • Patchwork and Quilting Holidays - 2021 Project Choices & Kit List
    Patchwork and Quilting Holidays - 2021 Project Choices & Kit List Project Choices: Samplers, Seminole, Beautiful Bargello & Delectable Mountain For 2021 we are going to continue our exploration of all things sampler and stripy, as well as offering the lovely Delectable Mountain! Sampler Blocks and the new Seminole Sampler Patchwork (where the patchwork patterns are worked in rows rather than blocks) are fun and very versatile and great for learning lots of new patchwork techniques. Choose from a wide range of designs to make useful and beautiful items. Beautiful Bargello projects will still be available, plus Clare‘s new Modern Art Bargello designs - one using wonderful batik landscape fabric for a quick and easy `cheats‘ Bargello and the other a pictoral quilt with a flexible Bargello section within it. New for 2021 are several variations of the traditional design - 'Delectable Mountain'! This is a lovely design with a modern feel if made with just two contrasting plain fabrics - or it is an ideal scrap buster or layer cake project for a very different look. Once the blocks are made (with Clare’s favourite ‘speedy’ method) there are many different ways they can be used, so lots to play with! Christmas 2021 - Join us for a festive Christmas Patchwork Weekend! Make a quick Christmas quilt, wall hanging, table runner, placemats, coasters, or bunting; lovely for your home or to give as gifts. We’ll be focusing on quick techniques and projects in time for Christmas! Guests will as ever be very welcome to bring along their own projects to work on. Our patchwork and quilting holidays offer a great opportunity to finish those UFOs (Unfinished Objects) or WIPs (Works In Progress) - with the luxury of time, space and expert advice on hand if needed – you can finally see those projects completed! If you have a kit you've started and gotten stuck - or been unable to start at all - do bring it along and we'll get things moving.

  • Historic Costuming Presented by Jill Harrison
    Historic Southern Indiana Interpretation Workshop, March 2-4, 1998 Historic Costuming Presented By Jill Harrison IMPRESSIONS Each of us makes an impression before ever saying a word. We size up visitors all the time, anticipating behavior from their age, clothing, and demeanor. What do they think of interpreters, disguised as we are in the threads of another time? While stressing the importance of historically accurate costuming (outfits) and accoutrements for first- person interpreters, there are many reasons compromises are made - perhaps a tight budget or lack of skilled construction personnel. Items such as shoes and eyeglasses are usually a sticking point when assembling a truly accurate outfit. It has been suggested that when visitors spot inaccurate details, interpreter credibility is downgraded and visitors launch into a frame of mind to find other inaccuracies. This may be true of visitors who are historical reenactors, buffs, or other interpreters. Most visitors, though, lack the heightened awareness to recognize the difference between authentic period detailing and the less-than-perfect substitutions. But everyone will notice a wristwatch, sunglasses, or tennis shoes. We have a responsibility to the public not to misrepresent the past; otherwise we are not preserving history but instead creating our own fiction and calling it the truth. Realistically, the appearance of the interpreter, our information base, our techniques, and our environment all affect the first-person experience. Historically accurate costuming perfection is laudable and reinforces academic credence. The minute details can be a springboard to important educational concepts; but the outfit is not the linchpin on which successful interpretation hangs.

  • CO Guide to Judging Clothing
    Colorado 4-H Guide for Clothing Judges Standards of Quality Clothing Construction Introduction One of our basic tasks in evaluating or judging is to be able to recognize and identify the standards that give a garment a finished, professional look. There are many techniques that can be used to accomplish the same end product. Each of us has techniques that we like and techniques that we dislike. In an objective evaluation it is essential to play down our personal preferences and to build upon identified and accepted standards. In general, there are some standards that apply to almost all techniques. Almost all construction techniques should result in an area, finish or detail that is: • Inconspicuous o Flat and smooth o Free from bulk o Stitching a uniform distance from an edge or fold • Functional • Durable –stitching uniform and secure Specific standards that can be expected in good construction are listed on the following pages. They are organized by techniques and/or areas, and the techniques are presented in alphabetical order. Overall Appearance Be objective when considering the overall appearance and appeal of a garment. It may be helpful to think about there being at least one especially pleasing feature about this garment, reflecting the many hours of though, effort and creativity that went into its construction. It may be the design, fabric, use of unusual technique or detail. Particularly neat and well-done machine or handstitching, etc. o Overall neatness and cleanliness o Plaids, stripes, checks and other designs matched at seams o Fabric with a direction in design or nap issued in garment in one direction unless garment design requires variation.

    LAPTOP SHOULDER BAG by Jackie Robinson, Animas Quilts - 2017 Hydrangea Embroidery - digitized by OESD adapted from Hydrangea fabric by Jackie Robinson & Benartex LLC Outer Fabric - 7/8 yd Fusible Woven Interfacing - 1-3/4 yds if 40” wide or 3-1/2 yds if 20” wide Pellon Fleece - 1/2 yd Lining Fabric - 1/2 yd Medium weight Tear-Away, preferably Ultra Clean & Tear from OESD OESD Perfect Press Cloth Begin by measuring your laptop – width, height, and thickness. MacBook is: 14.125 x 9.75 x .75 I wanted a 6” flap, 2” of gusset (it has to include that on top, plus 9.75” height for the back = 17.75” x 14.125. Add 1” to both measurements (1/4” seams plus ease for the included batting) = 18.75” x 15.125” That’s the measurement I trimed to after embroidery. Therefore, begin with a 20” x 17” for the Back & Flap. It’s large, so fuse two layers of woven iron-on interfacing to the wrong side. Double interface all the pieces for strength, as well because of embroidery on the back as well as the flap. Use two layers of stabilizer also. Flap embroidery is 5” x 12”. At the Raw edge of the flap, mark center 2.5” + .5” = 1.125” + 4.125” up from the edge. Strap - Cut fabric at least 7” x 42” Two layers of Interfacing. Place leaves as desired, with two layers of stabilizer. After stitching, trim to 6-1/8” x 36” Cut front 10.75” x 15.125”. Double Interface.
