    Thanks. I'm German so I LIVE for Christmas! We spend 6 months celebrating it and the next 6 months planning for it. ;-)

    Used to make these with fabric ribbon in the 1990's but the stores don't sell it anymore. Thank you for the detailed directions on how to make these with fabric. Your suggestions are so helpful. Thank you.

    Thank you so much for your video. I have been making round quilted ornaments from my local quilt shop. But was not aware of the pine cone ornaments. They are so lovely. Great tip with the glue!
    You are a wonderful teacher!

    OMG, I never saw these before. Guess Ive been under a rock, but this is so addictive. I have made over 50 so far. Just went to hobby lobby this morning and purchased 60 more eggs of all different sizes. Now Ive even started doing this in two tone fabrics. My fingers are callused over from pushing in the pins. They are going to look wonderful hanging on my stairway.TFS.

  • @944gemma

    I haven't made these in years. They are so pretty and so simple to do. FYI They can also be made using 1" wide, fairly stiff ribbon cut into 2" lengths. I just love your videos. I have to say you are a born teacher.

    I love that you put your finger in the glue, made a cute reference to balls and then apologized for it, and didn't like the last set of cranberries so just ripped it off. So real!

  • @croutoncrackerjacks
    @croutoncrackerjacks  12 років тому +2

    Thank you. I tend to like things that look fussy but aren't necessarily fussy to make. It's all in the details which if you're going to spend 20 minutes making something, may as well spend another 5 to kick it up a notch!

    I don't know your profession, but you're an excellent teacher! I've watched all of your craft videos and enjoyed each one. The only one I find a little difficult is the crocheted snowflake. That's because I'm just learning to crochet, not because the instructions aren't clear. I'm going to try it soon. Thank you for the lessons.

  • @croutoncrackerjacks
    @croutoncrackerjacks  12 років тому

    That, they would. You can do the same thing using round balls and there is a way to fold the last square so all edges are turned under and also hide the pins in the corners if you wish to go that route.

  • @Artistmom2011
    @Artistmom2011 6 років тому +1

    Cute idea.. I think ironing the squares into the shape needed ahead of time would save time.. especially if making more than one, which I think most would do if doing these. Like the fabric idea more than the paper one I saw

  • @lynncrum

  • @galemckiddy5120
    @galemckiddy5120 Місяць тому

    It helps a lot if you iron your fabric first so you are not battling the wrinkles as you work. Your work also looks much smoother.

  • @Sheila6325
    @Sheila6325 12 років тому

    Those pinecones are adorable! and even I could make these! I just love Christmas, and having a few new items each year is so much fun. I can't make the elaborate things I used to be able to do each year, husband bedridden, but THIS I can do.
    Thank you so much for the video, I have so wanted a small project, and this is the first that really got to me. I tend to want to go wild with Christmas ornaments. They're really nice, and take little room to make. Just Darling!

    And they were absolutely beautiful. For the first ornament exchange, I made Christmas balls using this technique. I only made 3 or 4 though as I like to change up my ornaments. Fantastic job and I love mine.

  • @croutoncrackerjacks
    @croutoncrackerjacks  11 років тому

    A fat quarter is a quarter yard of fabric. They're sold as-is instead of having to be cut off the bolt. As well, they are twice as wide (where the 'fat' part comes from) as a normal 1/4 yard. A 1/4 yard that is cut off the bolt is 9" wide and 44" long whereas a fat quarter is 18" wide but 22" long (basically a 1/2 yard cut in half width wise instead of length wise). It's a good way to buy a bunch of different fabrics instead of having to wait for a store associate to cut all of them.

  • @PossumLady8262
    @PossumLady8262 6 років тому

    Thank you!! I subbed you because of your recipes...but was binge watching today and saw this!! You actually explained the process in more detail than other channels that did these ornaments. Two thumbs up!!! :-)

  • @croutoncrackerjacks
    @croutoncrackerjacks  12 років тому

    Once you get into a groove, they go rather quick. I could get all the fabric folded and pinned in 15 minutes without ever putting the styrofoam egg down after doing a couple. And no meaning in the numbers. I tried finding tags that would look good with them and had no luck until I found a piece of scrapbooking cardstock with the 25 days of Christmas on it. So I cut each 'day' out and made them into tags!

  • @deetorres424
    @deetorres424 3 роки тому

    One other thought to share with everyone- just change your fabric colors to brights or pastels and cover the tops with ribbons/bows, and you can make these into easter eggs! Happy Crafting :)

    @kathycadile6421 8 років тому

    Not sure if you will get this since this is an old video but I'm confused on the instructions. I've watched this a few times but just can't seem to get the row thing. Are they all lined up or staggered. The fabric doesn't come through too clear so it is hard to distinguish the rows. Sorry if I am a little dense on this but I'm trying to make these and am not getting it.
