This treasure purse is the second project for the Weaving with Children feature article by Fiona Duthie, in the Spring 2009 issue. It is simple to make, and fun to carry around for yourself and your children.
Give this gnome a home, on your tree, where he belongs! With just some wooden beads, a few pieces of felt, and wool, you can make your pine cones a treasure this Christmas. Enjoy!
This gorgeous crown is made with Peace Fleece yarn, is easy to make, and fits all ages. You can make it for your child’s birthday, or better yet, also as the party favor for the children who join you for the celebration.

Scissors Cover
This felt cover can be custom-tailored to any size scissors. It is made with wool felt and makes a great gift for a minimum investment!
Walnut Royals
Once you start making these, your children will ask you for more and possibilities are endless, a witch, a jester, a young maiden, a gnome, and so on …
Pumpkin Girl
This girl is made with cotton velour, with felt hat and collar, and is stuffed with wool. Her hair is made of wool yarn and her face is made of skin-colored tricot. She can sit pretty among your autumn gourds and pumpkins.
Ornaments
With minimal resources, you can make a few of these and add on to your tree. They are very simple to make and fun to jingle.
A Royal Family
This king, queen, and baby prince are adorable together and apart on your tree, or can be used for a nativity scene. Directions to make them are very similar to the angel in the Winter 2008 Issue of Living Crafts magazine.
Vacuum Cleaner Hose Cover
Here’s an elegant attire for your vacuum cleaner hose. It works double-duty, to protect your furniture from the hose, and also protects the hose from sharp edges of wood and metal furniture. You can pick-up free discontinued upholstery sample books from upholstery fabric shops so there is no damage to your pocket either.
