more fabric…
I got a phonebook from my dad’s house a few weeks ago, and finally started tearing it apart… First I ripped out a big chunk, but it didn’t come out neatly, so instead I took out lots of little chunks, 5-15 pages at a time… then I cut them into squares… I’m going to use […]
And I said baby (baaaaaby) it’s 3 am I must be lonely…
You know you’re deliriously tired when you can’t get old Matchbox 20lyrics out of your head… I started out this evening thinking it was gonna be an easy/early night… I made myself a little zip pouch/wallet-y thing as a temporary card holder to keep stuff safe from the Bean while I wait for the metal […]
My first western shirt!
I finished the shirt for my dad! I need to work on snap placement/installation, but it’s totally wearable, and it IS just a muslin, after all! I’m pretty pleased with it. I think I might need my own, with pretty embroidery… I’m psyched, especially about the pretty snaps. I used the Dritz #16P Pliers with […]
A shirt for my dad…
Ok, so we have 2 big dogs… our XL dog door cost over a hundred dollars, and the flap ripped within 6 months… supposedly that’s just what happens. So I found a tute on the internet showing how to make your own dog door using various wooden things and then cutting down a car floor […]
Happy Birthday Tutu!
Some bunnies and a tote to hold them!
Wet felted Easter eggs…
I was clearly overly ambitious. My plans were to knock out 18 of thesetonight… I did 6. Will start earlier tomorrow night… (based on the tutorial found here)
Easter prep
here’s a sneak peak at what I’ve done so far… Hopefully I won’t run out of steam, as I still have lots planned….check my flickr for details and more pics….
Easter basket and eggs…
pink stripes for the bean blue stripes for D eggs for both! 10 eggs done, 25 to go, and both baskets done. I loved making the baskets, but they’re really small. I might need to make more, larger….I’m gonna try wet felting some eggs tomorrow, and I need to put faces on the bunnies for […]
Another bunny
I saw this super easy bunny pattern on Martha’s website, so, since I had JUST enough gold ball fabric, I had to make this one too… The bean helped me stuff it! (so it’s a little lumpy)… now she thinks it’s hers… uh-oh!
A birthday bunny for Tutu!
C’s grandma’s birthday is right around Easter, and she LOVES bunnies, and she’s an avid golfer… I saw a teeny scrap of this golf ball print at M&L last week (about 1/8 of a yard), and bought it to make it into SOMETHING for Tutu, and then realized it would make the cutest toy bunny […]
