\"Erdbeeren\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Strawberry fans will love them – these lovely fabric strawberries. These long-life berries will stay much longer than summer and they’re nice for all sorts of decorations. Whether you’ll sew them by machine or by hand, they’re done in a few minutes. Here’s a free download pattern<\/a><\/strong> for leaf and fruit. Take one or two leaves for each strawberry. For a better presentation I sewed one strawberry with an extra strong thread.<\/p>\n

\"Erdbeeren1a\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sew long thread along round edge with baste stitch<\/a><\/strong>. Lateron the strawberry will be closed with it.<\/p>\n

\"Erdbeeren2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Fold strawberry in half, left side out and sew side and top of the fruit with a back stitch<\/a><\/strong> – see blue thread. Turn strawberry inside out and pull black thread a bit tighter.<\/p>\n

\"Erdbeeren3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Fill strawberry with some wadding and pull tight black thread and make a strong knot. The fruit’s now closed and the felt leaves can be fixed.<\/p>\n

\"Erdbeeren4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Stagger both leaves and sew them with some bead yarn. (for my decoration strawberries I took a green thread of course)<\/p>\n

\"Erdbeeren5a\"<\/a>\"Erdbeeren6a\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After fixing the leaves with two stitches leave a loop for the peduncle, twist the thread around and fasten it by going through the peduncle once or twice.
\nThey’re unfit for consumption but a fantastic ornament for various decorations. Further suggestions will follow.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
