The power of imagination

Hello, are you frastrated because you have run out of ideas and yet you need money to sustain you and your family?

Here is a solution that will earn you a million dollars regularly as long as you keep following these tips;

Get some time off your daily schedule and go to a silent place.

Try to observe nature. Our nature has got an infinite amount of designs that you can use in your craft making. That shows how God is so powerful in his creation.

As you're seated where ever you are, try to remember a wonderful event that happened some time back in your life and try to paint it with various colors.

Draft this on your piece of paper. If you have a smart phone like samsang galaxy 3 or a better version, make use of the paper artist app.

Continue the painting until you are satisfied with what you have drawn.

Save your work and then go back home.

After some time go back to your work with a fresh mind and try to brain storm on the materials you can use to get your design to reality.

List the materials down and their possible sources.

Collect them and start on your work but first make a prototype before starting on the real project.

After the prototype complete your project and make money after panel beating.

Good luck with the new product  ready for market.

How to make a Cushion cover

Learn how to make a cushion cover by yourself and save that money for other things

Here are the steps that you will follow to do so;

a) Generate your idea by doing the following;

  1.  First visualize your end product before you make it. In other words, see the end from the beginning.
  2.  Write down your ideas on a piece of paper as soon as they register in your mind
  3.  Sketch your designs carefully. You could do around four designs
  4. Look at the requirements for each design that you have sketched
  5. Choose the best design basing on the uniqueness and the availability of materials for making it.
b) Put your generated idea following the steps below;
  1. Measure your cushion pad (or check size on label) and add 3cm to each measurement to allow for 1.5cm seam allowances. Using a ruler, set square and dressmakers’ chalk pencil, mark out this area on your fabric, once for the cushion front and again, for the back. If you want to centre a pattern or motif, or cut lots of cushion pieces, make a pattern from tracing paper, position on your fabric and draw round. Cut out pieces and iron.
  2. Pin the cushion front and back together with right sides facing and tack 1.5cm in from edges round three sides and four corners, leaving a gap on one side. Machine-stitch close to tacking, reversing for a few stitches to secure thread ends. Remove tacking.
  3. On heavier-weight fabrics, such as velvets, clip across the corners to remove bulk. Alternatively, to give sharp, slightly padded corners on lightweight fabrics, fold the double seam allowance down on both sides, pressing along stitching line, then at top and bottom.
  4. Turn cushion cover right side out, press and insert cushion pad. Using a needle and matching thread, slip stitch opening to close.
