I don't think my recipient checks blogs (at least I hope not) so here is the replacement for my TNN keyring swapee.. the first one was near identical but never turned up :(
This made a nice project for this week where I'm basically stuck to a chair, can't talk, eat or sleep.
Just a wee something to carry crap around for work. No pattern, just winged it. Inner fabric is all "POW" and "ZAP" not to mention "BIFFO"
4 months, 1.5 kilograms of buttons and many, many swear words later, I give you:
"Cute As A Button"
Inspired by a bag which I saw in a museum (which had a panel of about 30 buttons on the side), this thing took on a life of its own! I don't recommend trying to replicate unless you want to lose your sanity
New bags I made last night. These are a bit different. Cotton outer with a suedecloth lining.
Based loosely on the Dotted Dream bag pattern from Ottobre, these bags got created! I just winged it for the most part :)
They're a cotton quilt fabric on the outside with a tough cord on the inside and a reinforcing layer in the middle to keep them upright. The wallets match and snap into the inside of the bag for security :)
I learned HEAPS making these, and now that I know what I'm doing, look forward to making a whole bunch of them!
Inspired by Nurse Nancy, I whipped this up for Sophie's 2nd birthday. Word on the street is that it went down well!
Using heat transfer paper co-oped through The Nappy Network, whipped these up yesterday.
I'm not 100% happy with it, but it's my first time designing from scratch so I guess I shouldn't complain.
For wee Leo :)
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!
