Tulip Key Cozy (with Tutorial)Part 3

Step 6 Make a tulip bud
Measure a cord, when folded, it should be at least 1 in(2.5cm) longer than the cozy body.


Tie the two ends of the cord together to make a loop.


Cut a piece of fabric 2inX1.5in(5cmX3.75cm), fold right side together, insert the loop between the two layers, sew two layers together leaving one side as an opening. I draw a black line along the sewing line to make it visible.


Turn it over, and fold seam allowance inward, now it looks like a cup. Fill the cup with fiberfill.


Stitch 4 points together, following the order A-B-C-D.



Pull the thread, anchor it, now we have a tulip bud.


Last step

Insert the loop into the cozy body, use hidden stitch to narrow the top opening, be careful not to stitch on the cord, we want it to move freely.


Tie the keys on,hmm, my friend had a hard time to tie the knot. It's hard to take photo though, I made a video.




Viola, here is my first tutorial, hmm, hope it's clear enough to understand. if not let me know

A Crochet Wristlet with lining

     One of the great things about crocheting is that it's portable, the supplies - a ball of yarn and a crochet hook - can be easily carried anywhere, making it perfect for crafting on-the-go.  You can even work on your crochet projects while you're waiting in line, on a road trip, or anywhere else you find yourself.       Sometimes I don't have any particular projects in mind, so I crochet pieces just to keep my hands occupied while indulging in other activities such as watching TV, videos, or reading novels. Over time, I've accumulated a collection of pieces. Some I have used soon after completing them, while others have found their way into my stash of unfinished projects (UFP) , which I believe every crafter has.     Recently,  I resolved to finally confront my pile of unfinished projects - a task I have attempted several times before, only to end up with more added to the pile.    While digging through the UFP stash, I came across a rectangular crochet piece that

I'm not hallucinating, I can prove it

   I love fabric, in an addictive manner, even in the past few years when I didn't have time to actually do any project, I still went to buy fabric from time to time, eventually, they are everywhere.    Last week, somehow I suddenly thought about a specific fabric which was bought at Joanna years ago, a yard long.  It is a brown fabric with blue, red, orange flowers and some sparkling, very pretty. I went thought the 1~2 yards brown pile,  "no, not there", then I checked he floral design pile, not there either. Hmmm, maybe piles under 1 yard? no, I couldn't find it anywhere. This made me crazy.   Am I imaging it? I actually never bought it, I saw it in some shop and got impressed, but I didn't buy it. I regretted so much that I imaged that I already had it. Is that possible? NO, I have evidence, luckily, LOL see, the left bottom fabric, that's the one I'm talking about. I'm glad that I  made this owl pincushion long ago, although it has never
