Felt obsession

Debbie here from Craftin Chaos and I am currently in a Felt plushie obsession and was working on a cat and wanted to share my process. The Simply White Timeless Twine is the perfect weight to go through the felt and trim out my projects. I am alittle obsessed with it right now and using it on my felt projects.

Its nice to see other ways you can utilize your twine than the typical paper project so I hope you get some inspiration from it and try some yourself. There are alot of free patterns to be found to make some of the different projects.

I sometimes see things I like and also modify them to my liking. Felt squares are super cheap at the craft store and I even bought mine by the yard since I have used so much of it.

I used the blanket stitch all around the cats head. There area lot of tutorials on youtube for teaching you the various stitches you can use on the projects.

Thanks for stopping by!

Felt Camera Bag & Simply White

Debbie here from Craftin Chaos (formerly Bugjuiced) and I wanted to show a project that wasn't paper. Twine can be utilized for many other things!

I am venturing into sewing and wanted to make a cute little camera bag out of felt and using Simply White twine. My stitches really need some work. Its very hard to go through multiple layers of felt and I didn't really have the proper needle I don't think. I stabbed myself about 3-4 times trying to push the needle through the fabric and so I think my concentration took a beating!

The felling stitch I need to work on because they are SUPPOSE to be the same size and of course try to keep the distance from each other consistent but again first time here so everything is a learning process.

The blanket stitch I seem to be a lot better at. The only thing I need to work on is the tying it off properly at the end of the row. But I have to tell you its a lot of fun, its something you can do while sitting with your family and watching tv so I was happy to have a new hobby.

I have seen so many cute felt projects and want to make some of the paper clip ones for marking in my planner but those are pretty little so I am sticking to the bigger things for now.

I seen something like this on pinterest of course, so I proceeded to make a pattern for myself. I have plenty of room in the bag for a few other little things as my digital camera is pretty small so you can adjust the size accordingly. I for one wanted a bit more room anyhow. I added a ribbon wrist strap on it as well. Actually I am not sure it is large enough to go over a wrist but I really just wanted a loop to hold on too. You can adjust the length of this as well. The simply white twine just gave a nice pop against the bright colors of felt I used.

I purchased just felt squares 9 x 12 at Joann's for this project. I think sometimes imperfection makes something more perfect!

Here is another project I used Simply White twine on below. Just throwing it on here for more inspiration for you all!
