For textile and fiber art addicts who are curious about the world.

Voting on Photos

Every Sunday the top rated photo will be selected and be a focus on the front page for a week. Here is how to vote on a photo:

1. At the top menu bar, click on photos.

2. If you see a photo you like, click on it.

3. When it comes up, you will see two options beneath it. On the left side it says, "Rate" followed by some stars. Click on which star you think it should get, five being the highest. I think we all like to get feedback, so if you want to, also leave a comment.

4. Click through the rest of the pages and vote on the ones you like.

On the first page, at the right, there is a drop down menu on how to search the photos. The default is by most recently listed. Then there is an option for "top rated" and for "most popular". The stars have to do with the rating. I'm not clear if most popular refers to number of views or number of comments, but I'm going to go by the star ratings for the photos selection. So, every Sunday, I will click on that "top rated" option and the first photo that pops up will be up on the front page for a week.

I was trying to add one photo from each member into the featured section of the photos, but there are just too many members now. I am going to de-select them and have the top ones that are voted on as features in that section.

Free Vintage Paper Doll Pattern

Karen's Whimsey has this free Paper Doll pattern on her website. Clothing for the doll also available. Images are in the public domain.

American Folk Art Doll Pattern

This doll pattern and other folk patterns can be purchased at Cloth Doll Supply. Their description:

HISTORICAL FOLK DOLL #11
The New York Doll

This 16" doll has made herself quite famous by being chosen to be on the cover of a well-known book of American Folk Dolls, by Wendy Lavitt. She is such a good doll for a cover as she has just about all the best details of this type of doll. Separate fingers, a wonderful and exaggerated face and hair all carefully embroidered, including her remarkable feather-stitched eyebrows, and a costume of just-right simplicity and detail. She has with her the same small cat the doll in the photo has. Silkscreened for embroidery and new antiquing methods included.

Pattern (mini-kit) #PGW725 - $42.00

HOW TO MAKE LENAPE STYLE MOCCASINS
Shared by Mèssochwen Tëme

The same pattern is used for both feet so you only have to make one pattern. Once you make the pattern you're all set, and you can save it for making more moccasins in the future.
