Do these Orange-handled Scissors take you back in time?

Whenever I see the orange handles of Fiskars Scissors, I think of being about five years old and watching my mom sew. She would sew clothes for my sisters and I, and I loved watching her create each piece.

There were a few things I knew growing up and one of them was to never touch mom’s sewing scissors.I always wondered how she would know if I used them to cut paper, but I never dare try to. That was one rule that I knew never to break.

Flash forward 30 some odd years and now those orange handled scissors are a part of my sewing, crafting, and creating life. I love that Fiskars has lasted this long and is celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Orange-handled Scissors.

In order to help celebrate I created this fun, “Cut it Out” Handstitching Pattern.  Just perfect for a fun craft project, or wall decor.

Here’s what you’ll need to make your own “Cut it Out” Handstitching:

  • Fiskars Orange-handled Scissors
  • embroidery needles
  • fabric marker
  • embroidery hoop, 8″ is what I used.
  • embroidery floss, I used DMC E415 for the silver, 721 or orange, and 4200 for the variegated pink and orange.
  • Plain cotton fabric
  • Cut It Out Pattern

Download Box

Looking for the perfect addition to your sewing room? This "Cut it Out" Handstitching Pattern is the perfect project to add that extra touch of fun.

Step One:

Print out the download of the “Cut it Out Pattern.” Transfer to the cotton material using a fabric marker.

I like to tap my pattern to a window and then tape the fabric over top to create a light box. It makes tracing lots easier.

Step Two:

Begin stitching using a straight stitch.

I of course wanted to see the orange first so I started with it.

Step Three:

Continue hand-stitching with other colors until you are finished.

I did use a french knot for the “i” dot. But all other stitched are a straight stitch.
