Random!

Here are a few random things that are too small to have posts of their own, or maybe I just wanted to jumble them all together to save time for myself. Who knows...

A while ago I started making wallets and I took some pictures when I added fake buttons since I used the type of snaps that you sew in. I have too much trouble with the ones you use a hammer with.

I'm continuously making things to hang in my kitchen that are cupcake and coffee themed.
I took a cupcake design that is on my hand towels and made it into an embroidery.
I added the "sparks" for added color because my towels are a bright blue.
I try to use the same fabric with all the embroidery to kinda have it all fit together.




This is an action shot for an apron that I made for my friend that got married two months ago.
She LOVED it!

Finally I can post this!

Owls!!
I had to wait to post this because I didn't want to risk the Bride to be (now bride) to find this and see.


I made her a cute apron with whimsical owls on it and I wanted to embroider something that matched.


I attached a little handle on it so it can hang easily.
I hope she loves it!

Hoot!

I like owls, so I made some. I started out making a few tiny ones. I liked them so much that I made large ones. I am very happy with how these fellas turned out. I posted progress pics to share.



I love to make templates. It makes projects flow better for me, and I can use them over and over again.



I cut everything out first and place the piece where I want them to go. I used fleece and felt on these fair feathered friends. I have mixed feelings on working with fleece. It's too stretchy, and I had trouble lining up the front and back pieces.


I made a red and blue one. I stitched them like I stitch all my plushies. It gives them the handmade feel.

My favorite part of these plushies are their "eyebrows".
I plan on making more in various colors.
I'm thinking about putting them up on my Etsy shop.
