An Exploration of Large Scale Foundation Paper Piece Quilt Designing

Aka

Cozy Swords So Big

I made this quilt for a sword enthusiast, I’m sure they would clock inaccurate sword proportions right away. It was important to me that the (non magical) swords be as proportionally accurate as possible. I based each blade to hilt ratio directly on historical or famous prop references (can you spot them?) and designed them to be life sized.

A very sweet boy’s tail for scale against an early pattern draft

The most challenging part of constructing this quilt was working on the RIDICULOUSLY long blades. Typically individual pieces of an FPP pattern are small and easily maneuvered. My largest blade pattern pieces were about 45 inches long, a design decision I would never inflict on anybody but myself.

The smallest blade- the only one I took photos of because the rest were way too overwhelming to document. The largest pieces were triple the length of this.

Designing the blades to be contained in a single piece of each pattern maximized precision in the parts of the designs that I really really wanted to be smooth and sleek.

The long blades were very hard to construct, it’s easy to end up with bubbled fabric on FPP pattern pieces so large. Glue stick and spray starch were critical here.

My only totally impossible sword was designed in a more traditional fpp kind of way, broken into many small pattern pieces. There was a lot more room for error in seam matching, so this block took me much longer to complete than any of the others. I redid quite a few seams to get as close as I could to perfect.

Overall I loved how these large scale FPP designs turned out. I think the result was worth the hassle of working with my comically large pattern pieces.

elvira, i am begging and pleading for a tutorial on a how you jUST MADE THAT NEEDLE-FELT ALBIN (or recommendations on tutorials elsewhere, no actual pressure, im just being dramatic and silly lol) HOLY SHIT, YOU DID SO GOOD, CONGRATULATIONS!!

AIUUGH I should've read this earlier I just started on Donna and am almost finished with her face, and didn't take any progress pics!! 😫

I'm really flattered you like my Albin!!! Unfortunately I made Albin like I do most things; sorta dive head first and figure it out as I go so unfortunately I don't have much to offer besides looking up basic tutorials on needle felting :'D

BUT apart from that, I have learned these things on my own:

ARMATURE:

- use thick aluminum wire for the base and stainless steel to hold it together and for the fingers.

- if you're making a skinny guy like Albin, make the arms, legs, and neck only one wire thick, or else it'll be bumpy.

- make the limbs longer than you think you'll need, you can always cut them down to make them shorter

- Sculpt the head, hands and shoes separately and add thembto the body once finished! It's too hard to do them all on one doll.

FELTING:

- The head takes the longest bc shaping the ball just takes... Ages...., and if you're making lots of little details like eyebrows, eyes, nose, and ears, it's easier to sculpt them seperately and attach onto the head

- use a heat gun to melt down little stray fibres if you want a smoother look

- to get the little needle holes out after felting, rub the surface or wet felt it. Caution as it may shrink if you do!

- I wet felted almost anything that was small. Albins hair tufts are wet felted and then glued onto bent pins and stuck into his head. His hands are also wet felted directly over the hand armature.

- Once you've finished felting, you can dilute Elmer's glue with one part water and lightly brush a thin layer all over the doll, it'll prevent fibres from unraveling and is great for keeping hair styles in place! (Albin's hair is so much glue it's basically a helmet lmao)

CLOTHES:

- make mockups.... Like four or five different ones.... And you will still mess up

- if you're gluing, use contact cement or e6000 (toxic! Use respirator, gloves, and open window!!), not hot glue or all purpose glue... It doesn't work 🥺

- stretch polyester fabric is your friend!! You can scorch the edges to keep it from fraying and stretched fabrics are more easily put over the doll.

- for shoes and accessories I recommend making a clay called cold porcelain. I used polymer clay and it was really hard to get details down and it cracked! Cold porcelain you might already have the materials for if you have corn starch and Elmer's glue.

- for impossibly small clothing details, you can sculpt them instead using watered down glue and cotton balls!! Use a paint brush with glue on it to pick up a piece of cotton and smooth it down onto the figure. Once dried you have a somewhat moveable but solid piece of clothing that can even be painted! I'm thinking of doing this for Ricky's hat for example!

THINGS I WANT TO TRY:

- twist ties for fingers! Idk I just think they might work well 🤔 free, easily bent but never breaks (?) and protected from moisture!

- dyeing wool with fabric dye, I don't have colors for any of the other characters!! I need to try!

- plush bodies for the bigger dolls (Ricky and Lune, bc felting THAT much will kill my hands

Here are the steps and some tricks that I use to make water bases for my minis! (〃´▽`〃)

Thank you @lisuune for asking!~☆ I hope this will be of help!

1st step is to decide what the base "water" colour is!

For murky pounds you can use browns and beige, for a swamp, I use dark greens, olive, and sepia, for deep water the best would be shades of blue, depending of the depth that you want.

I'll use this mini as an example. I had some fun pouring cheap acrylics mixed with regular white/school glue (not obligatory, but I added a drop of silicone oil for the eye effects). I cut a plastic bag in two and let the acrylics dry. After acrylics dry, they turn to plastic, which is easy to cut and glued on the base.

(I need to flip my cutting mate, sorry for the mess (ó﹏ò｡))

Always let painrs dry in a well ventilated place.

2nd step is to decide what sort of "water" you shall use.

I am mostly using two materials, but there are a few others as well. I never tried them, but I read that people use transparent glue, varnish medium, or medium gel. I personally have experience with resin (both UV and regular epoxy resin) and clear acrylic.

(! Always work in a well ventilated space with resin ! It is super important, the fumes are toxic! Wearing gloves with resin is a must!)

When pouring, you can use a silicone mold for the base, or as my silly ass did the first time, use a little tape to create a dam (this only works if you intend to pour just a little).

Depending on how much you need, you can use: acrylic and epoxy resin for projects where you need a lot. Those allow you to pour multiple layers that will merge marvellously!

The trick is to be patient to let it dry, and pour very slowly to avoid air bubbles. Usually, a spritz or spray of alcohol is enough to eliminate the surface bubbles!

While acrylic is way safer and friendly for beginners, resin allows you to do neat tricks.

Use UV resin when you don't have to use a lot, because it doesn't layer as nicely as the regular one that needs to dry to gel (harden).

You can leave the UV resin under sunlight, and it will harden, or you can use an UV lamp, or flashlight, which will cause it to harden in seconds!

I made here a watter ripping by using a compressed air can and curing as it was blown into place. (*sensible chuckle*).

If you have fishing wire or transparent tread, you can pour a few drops on it and cure it for a cute splash effect!

As an extra, I use putty to make the "solid ground". I really like the Green Stuff world rolling pins, but a 3D printed one can work just as fine! (Don't forget to cover them with sculptor vaseline, or just water. For me, I prefer starch, that is why mine are so dusty)

I saw some beautiful basing kits from GSW, that I will absolutely buy to try. They have them for all kinds of terrain, including water, swamps, lava etc.

Happy basing !~♡

The first step is already in place, with the IKEA Industry factory in Kazlu Ruda, Lithuania, switching from a fossil-based glue to a starch-based version made from non-food grade corn. The goal is to have most board-producing factories in the IKEA supply chain using adhesives with lower climate footprints by 2030.

Could this cause problems for people with corn allergies? I don't know if corn starch is an allergen.

In my recent travels across the internet [cough] youtube shorts I found out about Ukrainian strawberry dumplings, which are often served with sour cream. And I thought, hey, those sound pretty tasty, I should try making them. I found this recipe and got to experimenting.

Now, I will admit, when I first looked at that recipe, I was filled with a deep sense of "ughhhhh" about the wrapper making step. I wanted dumplings now, or failing that in like, 15 minutes. I didn't have time to knead or rest dough! But I looked at that wrapping recipe, and I realised something: the recipe from the wrapping is weirdly similar to wonton wrappers? Not the same, the Ukrainian dumplings have more oil content, but I thought "hey. this sub might work." Now, I imagine if I showed any Ukrainian grandmothers what I made, they would be horrified, but I can say that wonton based strawberry dumplings are tasty.

The recipe assumes you are using fresh strawberries. However, if you take frozen strawberries, and separate them into more or less liquid sections, you can put the less liquid part in the wrappers, and then steam them so you don't have to worry about them leaking as much. You can then combine the strawberry juice with starch, sugar, lemon juice over a gentle heat to make a simple strawberry sauce that goes really well with the dumplings and sour cream.

This last experiment, I must warn you, is ridiculous. Decadent. I made it, and immediately summoned a black goat to my kitchen, that asked me if I wanted to live deliciously. And I told that goat: thanks for the offer, but I don't need the taste of butter to do that. I have these mutant strawberry dumplings. Take some small fresh strawberries. Cut off the top, and cut into quarters. Keep those four quarters together. Put those strawberry quarters on a wonton wrapper (optional: add a smear of strawberry jam as 'glue.') Slot between those quarters a single dark chocolate button. Wrap the wrapper, and steam for six minutes. Serve piping hot with sour cream, and experience a glimpse of heaven in the form of hot strawberries and melted chocolate.

Random pics of bookbinding that I was able to find on my computer.

Also, most western sources of bookbinding or conservation use wheat starch paste but as a Finnish person, I haven't found and I don't think you can find wheat starch easily in here, since we take celiacs pretty seriously here (lmao it's the excuse, we just love the potato)

So we have maize starch, potato starch, and oat starch available in general. Rice starch is the best one tho since it's available from any asian grocery store. I haven't done any tests on the Finn available starches but grain based starches seem to be the best from what I've read, so potato starch can go and fuck off.

And while I haven't seen any comparisons between wheat and rice starch, I think using either one is fine. The only scientific comparisons I've seen are between oats, potato, etc. but wheat is just the most common in west, while rice starch is most common in east so I think they're both just good. It's just that rice starch is more available in some western countries.

Also, I have used a mix of starch glue and PVA on so while I could write an essay or two about what glues to use, with half it it being questions about WHAT, HOW?? this is always somewhat regional and throwing around brand names is useless. This is something that books about book binding won't usually tell you, but they're just not fucking localized and it matters A LOT.

PVA is a huge category of glues and they do work, since as synthetic glues they can be... elastic? Like, they don't dry stiff. But also, they don't all perform the same. Like in Finland we tend to say to beginners that EriKeeper works, and in US I know that Elmer's Glue is not the same, but it's also the one that works for this purpose and is the basic glue that you can use.

Both Elmer's and EriKeeper are just as bad on the long run but they also both work really well for beginner projects and for someone, who just wants to bind a couple of books for family use, they're both ADEQUATELY GOOD.

So anygays, I forgot if I had a point here, other than you can use what the fuck glue want, as long as it's not potato starch, and it's in the PVA family, I guess.

Getting the Best 3D Prints with Bambu Lab: A Beginner’s Guide to Bambu Lab Filament and PLA Filament

3D printing can feel like magic the first time you see an object take shape on your desk. And if you're starting out with a Bambu Lab printer, you're already in good hands. Their machines are fast, smart, and built for precision. But even the best printer needs the right filament to perform properly.

This guide is here to help you get started with Bambu Lab filament, understand how PLA filament fits into the mix, and avoid common slip-ups that can mess with your prints.

Why Bambu Lab is a Popular Choice for Beginners

There are plenty of 3D printers out there, but Bambu Lab has earned a strong reputation with hobbyists and first-timers. One of the reasons is how simple they make it to go from unpacking to printing. Their automatic calibration, clean interface, and multi-material capabilities take a lot of the guesswork out.

If you're printing straight out of the box, you’ll likely start with Bambu Lab filament, which is made to run perfectly with their machines. It's like using fuel designed specifically for your car; it just works better.

Understanding the Different Types of Filament

What Is PLA Filament?

PLA filament is the most common material used in 3D printing. It’s made from plant-based resources like corn starch and sugarcane, making it biodegradable and safe for indoor use. It’s perfect for beginners because it doesn’t need a heated bed, doesn’t smell while printing, and is forgiving if your settings are slightly off.

If you're printing models, toys, basic parts, or learning the ropes, PLA filament is your go-to. It works smoothly with Bambu Lab printers and tends to be cheaper than more specialised materials.

What Makes Bambu Lab Filament Different?

Bambu Lab filament is designed specifically for Bambu Lab printers. It’s tested for consistency and comes with RFID tags, which means your printer can auto-detect the type of material and apply the right settings. That takes one more thing off your plate and helps prevent misprints caused by using the wrong temperature or speed.

They also offer a solid range of colours and finishes, from basic black and white to silk and matte shades. For everyday prints, it’s reliable and consistent, two things that matter more than fancy features when you're starting out.

Setting Yourself Up for Success

Store Your Filament Properly

No matter which material you use, keeping it dry is key. Both Bambu Lab filament and PLA filament absorb moisture from the air, which can cause issues like bubbling, poor layer bonding, and stringy prints. Always store spools in airtight containers or use filament dry boxes if you live in a humid area.

You don’t need fancy storage; some dry rice or silica gel packets in a sealed tub can do the job just fine.

Use the Right Print Settings

If you're using Bambu Lab filament, your printer will usually detect it and apply the recommended settings automatically. But it’s still worth understanding what these settings do. For example:

Temperature: PLA prints well between 190–220°C.

Bed Temp: 50–60°C helps with adhesion, though PLA can stick well even on a cool bed.

Speed: Slower speeds give better detail, especially for small or delicate prints.

The better you know your settings, the more control you’ll have over your results even with auto-detection in place.

Common Printing Issues and How to Fix Them

Even with a top-quality printer like Bambu Lab, hiccups can happen. If your print isn’t turning out the way you expected, try these quick fixes:

Print Not Sticking to the Bed?

First layer issues are common. Make sure your bed is clean and level. A little glue stick or painter’s tape can help PLA filament grip the surface if you're still having trouble.

Stringy Prints?

This is usually a sign of too much moisture in your filament or the wrong retraction settings. Dry out your Bambu Lab filament and check your retraction distance and speed in the slicer.

Uneven Layers?

This could come down to inconsistent extrusion. Check your nozzle for clogs, make sure your filament spool isn’t tangled, and don’t forget to clean the extruder gears now and then.

Trying Different Filaments as You Improve

Once you're comfortable with PLA filament, you might get curious about trying new materials like PETG, ABS, or TPU. Bambu Lab printers are capable of handling them, but they do come with extra challenges like needing higher temperatures or enclosure support.

Stick with Bambu Lab filament for early projects until you’re confident with changing print settings. The smooth experience helps build good habits and saves you from frustrating trial and error.

Support, Community, and Buying the Right Filament

When you’re learning something new, community makes a huge difference. Bambu Lab has a strong support base online, including forums, Facebook groups, and Reddit communities. You’ll find advice, slicer profiles, troubleshooting tips, and people sharing their prints good and bad.

At 3D Central, we stock a wide range of Bambu Lab filament and PLA filament in colours and finishes to match any idea you’re working on. Whether you’re creating models, tools, or just experimenting, you’ll find quality filament that prints cleanly without fuss.

Final Thoughts

Getting the most out of your Bambu Lab printer doesn’t require a technical background or endless trial and error. Start with the right material like PLA filament or official Bambu Lab filament and make small adjustments as you go. Store your filament properly, keep your settings consistent, and don’t be afraid to ask questions or share your results.

3D printing can be as simple or complex as you want it to be. For beginners, the key is to keep things simple and focus on learning one step at a time. And remember every misprint is just part of the learning process.

The Process of Making Organic Stationery

Recycled Paper: Most organic notebooks, journals, and notepads are made from post-consumer recycled paper, reducing the need to cut down new trees.

Seed Paper: Some items use biodegradable paper embedded with plant seeds, which can be planted after use.

Natural Fibers: Materials like cotton waste, jute, and even bamboo pulp are used to create eco-friendly paper.

2. Eco-Friendly Paper Production

Chemical-Free Bleaching: If any whitening is done, it's done using non-toxic, chlorine-free processes.

Energy-Efficient Methods: Many organic paper producers use solar or wind energy to power their operations, reducing carbon emissions.

3. Non-Toxic Inks and Adhesives

Plant-Based Inks: Instead of petroleum-based inks, organic stationery uses soy, vegetable, or water-based inks for printing and design.

Natural Adhesives: Glues used in notepads and diaries are often made from natural resins or starch-based formulas.

4. Handmade or Low-Impact Manufacturing

Many organic stationery products are handmade, especially in artisanal or rural industries, which reduces reliance on machines and mass production.

This also supports local craftsmen and promotes fair-trade practices.

5. Sustainable Packaging

Plastic-Free: Organic stationery avoids plastic packaging, using recycled cardboard or cloth wraps instead.

Minimalist Design: The packaging is often minimal to reduce waste.

things which are made of organic stationary?

Organic stationery encompasses a wide range of eco-friendly and sustainable products made from natural, biodegradable, and recycled materials. These products are designed to reduce environmental impact while providing functional and stylish alternatives to conventional stationery. One of the most common items made from organic stationery is recycled paper notebooks and journals. These notebooks are created using post-consumer waste paper, which reduces the need for virgin pulp and helps conserve natural resources. Recycled paper notebooks often come with covers made from kraft paper, recycled cardboard, or other biodegradable materials. Many brands that produce organic stationery also use soy-based inks and natural adhesives to ensure the entire product is eco-friendly.

Bamboo pens and pencils are another popular category of organic stationery. Bamboo, being one of the fastest-growing and most sustainable resources, is an ideal material for crafting writing instruments. Bamboo pens are often refillable, allowing users to replace the ink cartridge, which extends the lifespan of the product and minimizes waste. Similarly, organic wooden pencils are made from sustainably sourced wood and natural graphite, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastic-cased pencils. Some wooden pencils are even embedded with seeds, allowing them to be planted after use, promoting a circular life cycle that benefits the environment.

Organic erasers and glue sticks are also integral parts of organic stationery. Organic erasers are typically made from natural rubber, which is tapped sustainably from rubber trees, ensuring that the production process does not harm the environment. These erasers are free from PVC and other harmful chemicals, making them safe for children and eco-conscious consumers. Organic glue sticks, on the other hand, are formulated using plant-based adhesives derived from natural starch or gums, ensuring that they decompose safely without leaving harmful residues.

Seed paper and plantable stationery have gained significant popularity in the organic stationery market. Seed paper is made from a blend of recycled paper pulp and seeds that can be planted after use. Once placed in soil and watered, the paper decomposes, allowing the embedded seeds to sprout and grow into plants, flowers, or herbs. This innovative product is commonly used for wedding invitations, greeting cards, business cards, and promotional materials, providing a creative and sustainable way to reduce paper waste.

Organic cotton and jute pencil cases, pouches, and organizers are also part of the organic stationery family.

so idk how usamerican casseroles as a concept are but if you have never been taught the basics of a casserole, no matter where you live, i need to teach you today because it is a very good and near-infinitely customizable way to turn Ingredience into Food (Tasty). also because i had some for dinner and it was very very good.

the humble casserole (or “hot dish” if you’re my cousins from minnesota) consists of four (4) main categories:

protein

starch

veggie

glue

the glue is almost always cream of mushroom soup. i have never had it on its own but it probably tastes like casserole glue.

first you need an oven-safe dish, just about any size or shape so long as it has Depth and Surface Area.

next you’re gonna find a protein. ground beef? shredded chicken? edamame? doesn’t matter! i personally love a good tuna casserole, so that’s the example we’re going with. get an Amount and dump in in the dish. casserole is a vibes-based meal that scorns your silly mortal “measurements”.

got your protein in? great! next, find a Starch. i like pasta best but rice will also do. …maybe even barley now that i think about it. you will learn how to judge Casserole Ingredients. for now let’s go with macaroni noodles. boil ‘em up and dump ‘em in!

next you want Veg. look through your freezer and see what needs eating. corn? broccoli? lima beans? green beans? for sake of example, i’ll go with my favorite again: peas! dump those suckers in frozen, it’ll be fine. probably. who cares? not your yummy casserole.

now add your glue! you don’t have to use cream of mushroom if you don’t have it, shreddy cheese works just fine. (you can even add shreddy cheese to the crm. mush. casserole if you want! nobody’s stopping you!)

mix it all together and either toss it in the oven right away or! add an optional Garnish, such as crunchy onions, breadcrumbs, or just crushed up crackers spread somewhat evenly across the top. (you could also spread a layer of cheese! yum!)

the internet says “Casseroles typically need to bake in the oven for 30 minutes to 1 hour at a temperature of 350-375°F (175-190°C)”, so make of that what you will. check on your tasty shlop dish every so often just to be on the safe side, but it doesnt really matter. once it looks and smells good it’s probably ready. i suggest you use pre-cooked meat for this exact reason, so everything is already food-safe and you can go off Vibes.

now scoop some onto a plate and dig in! the rest can be packed into tupperware containers and voila! you have Leftovers!
