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

Winter

Winter here is long, almost half the year, white and cold, at the same time, fun and beautiful. I can't tell how I feel about it. Sometimes I love it, but sometimes I hate it. You wonder why people hate winter? Yes! they were cars parking on road. And you wonder why people love winter? You wonder why people hate snow? It was our driveway after a snow storm. Our Kitchen door And you wonder why people love snow? The last rose in my back yard, it was beautiful, isn't it?
