Small designs like these are perfect for embellishing more than just earlobes. Look for wire stemware rings. These have a little catch on them and can be attached to the base of wine glass or looped over a fine bottle.

Small designs like these are perfect for embellishing more than just earlobes. Here I’ve used them on Halloween candy jars. Add a small jump ring and then a larger one (i used stemware rings) added it to a piece of black elastic to secure it to the jar.

This project used a melted crayon technique I learned in a class with my local quilt guild. The flower, from Pen & Ink Flowers, was colored on white fabric and treated as a raw edge applique. This set comes with an outline version and a detailed version, which means you don’t need to anything special with the designs to duplicate the effect.
I chose one of the bags from the SIngle Zip ITH Vertical Bags, which is a set of plain zip bags ideal for adding your own embellishments. Refer to the related articles for more information on the technique.

These single-color continuous line quilt designs make really fast potholders or hot pads for your holiday table. Also make a great hostess gift or craft bazaar item. Good project for a young/new sewist and using up small bits of fabric and batting.
Set of 10 designs, 3 sizes each.

Not a complete ITH project but stocking-shaped designs in single color. This one was stitched in metallic gold thread and then colored in InkTense colored pencils.
I backed it with a deep wine-colored velvet, lined it with a matching satin-y fabric and piped the edges with a matching heavy cording and topped it off with a faux furry sherpa type fabric. I further embellished the stocking body with a few hand-stitch pearly beads.
The set has 10 stocking designs in 4 sizes each from 5″ x 7″ on up to 9.5″ x 13.5″. Choose just one, a set of one size, or the bundle with all versions.

OK, so I live in the desert southwest and we really don’t get snow here but I grew up with snowy winters so I chose and snowman scene from the Snowman Blocks bundle for my January block.
The ITH block with “January” all around is from the In-the-Hoop Calendar Block set. This set is designed for ultimate flexibility so that you can insert whatever design you want for the center block.
Again, I’ve used the InkTense colored pencils to get the color. These pencils are easy to use, no clean up required, and moisture is used to get the water-color effect and make the color permanent.

I love line-art style designs. This design set is done in a single color and multi-color. I’ve used it to quilt my project.

This pumpkin and cat design comes with the In-the-Hoop Calendar Block set. There are many other sets to choose designs for the rest of the months based on what holidays you celebrate and whether you live in the northern hemisphere or southern.
