| Finishing up my home made hat pattern made from fleece. Click on link below to see the very start of this project. Creating Pattern |
 |
| All done! |
 |
| It's just too... cylinder shaped! |
 |
| Clever idea brewing under this hat... |
 |
| All done now with clever idea applied... |
 |
| Gathered back. |
 |
| My sewing machine decided to act up today too! |
 |
| I may add a felt shape to the hat... |
 |
| or simply make more hats! |
 |
| This one is my fav! |
 |
| My next new challenge; making academic robes for ren faire. |
 |
| Unexpected find. Patterns were on sale at JoAnn's fabric. $1 each in must buy 5 bundle. So I found a few patterns I normally wouldn't get. Thought it would be fun to make a few new things. |
 |
| My Grandson is rather cool... |
 |
| I love this sign! I must make a similar one for 'Nana's Loft' |
 |
| Mornings are always a little silly with the wee one & his mommy. |
 |
| Snack time is serious business! |
 |
| Little lad chatting with his Uncle... |
 |
| I have always enjoyed wandering about Pier One stores. Love the cabinet colours! |
 |
| Seems that peacock colours are all the rage this season! |
 |
| I see all the glasses and wonder just how many equals too many for me to own ;) |
 |
| I'd own so much from this store... if it wasn't so overly priced. |
 |
| Peacocks again. |
 |
| I couldn't see using these but once a season, but they are colourful! |
 |
| I want two of these... |
 |
| two of these too! |
 |
| I'm always inspired by all the colour combinations in this store! |
 |
| I always think "I can make pillows myself, instead of purchasing these" but then seldom ever do. |
 |
| Though these two pillows really do inspire me! Yo yo's and ribbon strips! |
 |
| Gorgeous textures! I'd almost be afraid to use them...almost. |
 |
| Ok, so the mini weeny dogs like snuggling inside pillow cases. Sadly they've ruined many, many pillows and cases. So, I didn't have any available after their bath. So I used cotton t-shirts instead... notice her tail wagging? |
 |
| Wag, wag... |
 |
| still wagging... |
 |
| her sister now wants some attention... |
 |
| Attention gone, wagging stops! |
 |
| Attention whore! |
 |
| She want's treats now... |
 |
| Suzi Blu's book and video... the video is 'boxed in' so seeing the process up close is not an option on my lap top. Suzi is quirky! :) |
 |
| As for the pictures and instructions within the book, I'm very pleased. There are many projects to follow step-by-step. There are many tips and suggestions to follow, making this a book that can be useful in various mixed media projects. If you like making whimsical doll like girl drawings and paintings, I strongly suggest getting this book! The book coupled with the video make for many hours of inspired technique and instruction! |
 |
| I found this one at the local fabric store. I used my 40% coupon with my teacher 15% discount too. Happy Crafting... |
