I packed some crafts and a heat gun for my two children as we set off to explore the country of Turkey for the summer. I had been as a child, and wanted my young children to see something beyond the borders of America and some interesting culture. Our first stop was Istanbul, the country’s biggest city and trade port. It is an amazing city, and my children who are strict vegetarians, fell in love with the fresh food here. It really is amazing to think that we were in one of the oldest cities in the world, and special to know that no one from our town had been here before and my children were getting a great culture shock. We visited the Blue Mosque and felt that the size of it was so large we could not explain it when we called our friends back home. We knew Turkey was for us.
You don’t have to take jewelry making courses to make interesting pieces. Select some flatware with interesting design patterns.

Make dainty fork earrings by cutting handles from the fork and then braiding the three tines together. Drill small holes at the base and then secure hooks using jewelry making wire. Try adding some beads to the tines of the forks and rolling the tines over itself for fork bracelets or decorative watch bands. Mount watch faces to spoons in order to use them as pendants or bracelets.

While in the days gone by various aspects of sewing were done out of necessity, in this day and age these aspects have become more of a novelty. Now, instead of needing to produce necessary items, the various sewing arts have now fallen into the realm of hobbies that presents the opportunity to display ones talent, creativity and proficiency in producing a unique item. The evidence of this creative bent is present in the art of creating a unique quilt. When once quilting was done out of necessity to provide warm bedding for protection from the cold, it has now become a way of expressing one’s creative nature, as well as offering a therapeutic method of relaxation.
One aspect of the quilting arts that has not changed, and probably never will, is the care that is taken when selecting the materials that go into making a quilt. Given the time and attention to detail that goes into making a quilt, it’s not surprising that the artist wants the materials to be sturdy and able to last through the years. While the material that goes into making a quilt is very important, one of the most important aspects of its construction would be that of the quilt thread that is used.
Many beginning quilters feel that the type of quilt thread that is used in a quilting project is not important as long as the color coordinates with the project. That does not necessarily mean that the artisan is unconcerned about the quality of the thread, in most cases it tends to be the belief that all threads are the same; this is simply not the case. There are several reasons why it is important to use quilt thread for quilting projects.
Quilts have a tendency to be heavy which is why it is important to utilize a thread that is both sturdy enough to hold together under the weight and stand up to the washing. Another reason to utilize quilting thread is because of its high quality and endurance. After all a great deal of work and creativity goes into making quilts and these items are something that many families pass from one generation to the next, so its important for the thread to be of a heavy and sturdy nature to stand the test of time so that these works of creativity will be around for years to come.
