Leuke bladeren

Dit was de eerste keer dat ik in aanraking kwam met jullie site. Ik zag ergens zo’n mooi blad en ging zoeken. Inmiddels heb ik er vijf gemaakt. De eerste vond ik wat te dun dus doe er nu meer vulling tussen. Oude dekbedden of dekens werkt ook goed. Duidelijke handleiding en filmpjes. Heel leuk om te doen en heb er al aantal van kado gegeven. Krijg ook hele leuke reacties op de gegeven kado’s. Hieronder 3 (waarvan 2 van jullie patronen zijn)

Great result

I had an old woolen blanket and I thought this would be a great use for it, I am thrilled with the result and how easy it was. I wish I hadn't procrastinated so long worrying if i could do it or not! This is for our first grandchild due to be born in November, in Canada. While there were some wonderful Canadian leaves, I was thrilled with the Kawakawa leaf, we have one in our garden and it is truely New Zealand! As a small aside, it is well known that the best Kawakawa leaves are the ones with holes in that the caterpillars have made, i unintentionally chose a fabric with circles which now represent the 'holes' to me. Thank you for the easy to follow videos, they made all the difference.

Great patterns!

Made the large maple leaf yesterday and it was such a fun project, it’s adorable! It’ll be a comfy play mat for my baby any day now (if my cat doesn’t claim it!). Alas, I realized as I was almost done quilting the veins that the morphology in the pattern is wrong - as a forest ecologist who teaches plant ID and taxonomy, this will always slightly bother me…. but probably not enough to seam rip and redo the bottom veins so the palmate venation starts at the bottom rather than ~6” up. I just wish I had noticed earlier so I could have drawn them right. That’s the only reason for the 4 stars rather than 5 - the directions and all that were very clear.

Hello Sara!

Thank you for stopping in with such a thoughtful review. I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed sewing your Leaf Blanket, and are looking forward to your wee little one getting to play on it. Best of wishes for welcoming Baby into your family happy and healthy, whatever journey they are taking to get there!

We appreciate you pointing out the discrepancy in our maple leaf veins - we too are very big on the importance of nature education, and appreciated getting to learn something new, as we weren't aware and didn't notice this small detail in designing the Leaves! We will certainly make note of this to address in the future, so thank you for the education.

All the best to you, and happy sewing!

Versatility at it's finest

Although I used the "doll sized" XS blanket, I used the Tropical Leaf bundle to make different textured sensory-friendly leaves! They get quite the amount of love at the park, especially where the swings are metal and the temperatures reach well over 100 degrees. My son has a soft, cushioned toddler-sized seat to take with him whether he is swinging high or sliding low. They are also wonderful for "quiet" time. When overwhelmed, the sensation of different textures can help calm the nervous system. This pattern is an absolute win, with the limits being set by your imagination.

Outstanding patterns and easy step-by-step instructions

This make was very simple to follow and turned out beautifully. I am a beginner sewer and have never quilted before, but the instructions were easy to follow and I managed to produce a leaf like the ones in the photos.

Large Paw-Paw

Felt tickled to find a paw-paw pattern at all. They hold a special significance to me as the only "tropical" fruit native to northeast USA. I made this as a "tummy time" baby blanket for foodie friends. I'm an intermediate seamstess, and this was an easy project to follow and complete. The directions were clear and simple to understand, I really appreciate that you can separate the layers of the pattern to print only what you want. It would be helpful to use a walking foot for the quilting lines if you've got one. I felt lazy after I couldn't get the walking foot to work(note to self, don't be lazy!) and I didn't pin the layers together and they did shift a bit. Otherwise the sewing was a great project for beginners. From start to finish it took me maybe 5 hours. I can wait to make the other leaves in the set!

Maple playmat

Absolutely loved this pattern I purchased the bundle along with forest carry cradle and toadstool. The maple leave in particular is so pretty and I have plans to make place settings from smaller version

Great for special play mats

I bought this pattern to make a play mat for my baby and to add some interest. I made two leaves and attached them to the mat. I sewed crinkle material in one leaf, that is so fun for my little one! An easy pattern with great instructions and perfect to create your own activity mat.

Just beautiful

Finally I made these beautiful little leaves for a Waldorf/farm school. I used thriftstore sheets and lined them with thriftstore fleece blankets. I’m very happy with the result. The instructions were good as always.

What a joy sewing these leaves! I could do this on and on. They are easy to sew and yet look amazing. I've used the smaller sizes to make some XL coasters for family dinner. Perfect sizes for saucepans and at the same time a beautiful decoration of the table.
