So, I haven't posted in a while, it's been busy. Here are a few recent creations:
This fabric...
Became this duvet cover and pillows:
Plus a couple of pairs of pants for Mason:
I also made up 3 Christmas stockings from red minky and white faux fur with our names on them, but no photo of those yet, will try to remember to post one!
Not something I thought I'd attempt, but I had a go :) Felt cookies with a felt icecream, all topped with beaded sprinkles! I haven't been feeling crafty for a while, so this was nice for a change.
Also, if you haven't already, check out Craft Fetish, hopefully being launched next month!
It finally flowered! It hasn't since Carl got it for me back when Mason was born. It looks like having a decent blast of sun and heat did the trick :)
So bad, but tastes SO good. Need to use our breadmaker more often!
* 1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
* 3 tablespoons white sugar
* 2 tsp bread machine yeast
* 1/4 cup olive oil
* 3 cups bread flour
* 1 teaspoon salt
Put water, sugar and yeast into the breadmaker, stir and leave for 10 minutes. Add flour, salt and oil. Put on 1kg white bread cycle (I used light crust setting).
This is what I've been working on for Little Punks. Back into Photoshop which isn't something I've touched in a while. Am waiting to figure out pricing before I can make these available, but here is a sneak peek!
OK, better this time! The snaps are wonky and the lines don't match, but I'm getting there :)
And being modelled once again by Sophie! Excuse the unhappiness, too close to nap time :)
I didn't allow for less stretch in this velvet fabric I had in my stash, so this one doesn't fit me, even though it's better than my first one :( :( :(
GUTTED!
Never before have I done it, this is the first adult item I've sewn ever! Made from a Burda pattern with my new Brother overlocker. The fit is a little funky, and it is quite low cut, but apart from that I'm pretty pleased!
I've never made a dress before, and haven't had much experience with fabrics outside of polar, velour and nappy fabrics. I took the plunge though, and this is my first attempt. I got my courage up and used my new overlocker to make a rolled hem on the bottom.
Definitely better looking in real life, but this is the best you'll get!
ETA: And on the model, Sophie!
What I made.. but it's being secretly gifted to someone else so I can't! And unless they figure out who I am, there is no way that I can share it. So I almost wish they WOULD guess that it's me!
GAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!
