Question What about a leprechaun or fairy?
Hi !!!! I have a question….. my hemi is bigger than a 3″ soft foam ball that usually is shown in your Pattern; how can I calculate the size of fabric? Maybe I have lost this essential data, can you help me? I am so excited , I am a new entry and I have donate to myself quite the entire collection of Ornament Girls Pattern! I hope I receive your kind reply, thank you for sharing your bauties!
Hi Daniela, Monica let me know she answers this question and more in this video: https://ornamentgirls.com/tips-for-making-hemis/ I hope that helps and if you need anything else, please let me know. I’m happy to help.
All these are awesome. WOW can’t wait to make them. Thank you
YAY! Thanks so much for the kind words and I’m so excited that YOU are excited! Happy ornamenting.
Love your ornaments. They are gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing! Love this club and so glad I joined!!!!
Hi Barbara, that is so great to hear! Thank you so much for sharing with us and we’re thrilled your a member!
They are so adorable, want to make one for a friend’s baby shower. Love the fabrics, where can I purchase some!
Oh my gosh these are gorgeous!! Now these need to be one of our kits!! An umbrella ornament 💕. Love the pagoda style. Tried finding all the materials you used to make it but couldn’t find any of them. Mind sharing where you found the material, fringe and stuff 💕 I really would love to make one
Thank you so much for all the beautiful ornaments that you do. So love being a part of this group 💕🦋
As I website possessor I believe the subject material here is really superb, thank you for your efforts.
exciting to do it.you give me an other idea.
Having read this I thought it was very informative.
I appreciate you finding the time and energy to put this information together.
I once again find myself personally spending a significant amount of time both
reading and leaving comments. But so what, it was
still worthwhile!
I read this paragraph completely on the topic
of the difference of newest and preceding technologies, it’s
awesome article.
Do you put padding on the foam disc?
How do you fix it so you can hang it? Do you run a wire completely through it before adding the dowel or straw? I just made one and the top where the material comes together isn’t stable enough to support it’s weight 🤔
Never mind. I figured something out. Thank you for sharing your talent!
These are beautiful, Have you done a video for making the Unicorn?
Hi Perry. 🙂 My apologies for missing this question until now. Yes, the unicorn video is a bonus with the Iris pattern.
Monica, i got my hemi’s today and have watched your video…. I’m still new at this and am not sure how to section the hemi! I watched the parasol video too, but since that is a ball & this is only half a ball I’m lost! Can you help? Thanks!
Hi Barbara! Dividing a hemi is very similar to dividing a ball, but since a hemi is basically just a ball cut in half, you should measure around the BASE of the hemi (versus measuring around the middle of a ball). So the same marks you would normally make around the equator line of a ball should be made around the bottom part of the hemi — where the band or ribbon will be wrapped around later. Does this help?
Thanks! That is what i thought but just wanted to be sure!
Love Them !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They are beautiful.
