planted dont just put down roots crafty tips 1 when following a stitch graph cover it with a sheet of clear plastic as you do each row mark it off with a washable mar ker when you finish the project just wipe off the sheet with a damp cloth 2 when sewing the opening closed on a stuffed toy or pillow lay a piece of used fabric softener sheet over the stuffing directly be low the opening before you sew it closed this prevents pieces of fiberfill from sticking out of the opening and also prevents the needle from getting caught in the filling 3 many christmas home de corations are suitable all year round simply by changing the bow it seems a shame that these beautiful things have to be stored for a whole year may 1986 be a fulfilling and hap py year for you and may we find peace in our time
