Sewing projects, continued

Well, I have a lot of scraps. So I started making "Crazy Quilty" squares. It takes mucho time to make these though! I estimated 80 to 100 hours of square-making before I'd have enough for a quilt. So I'm thinking about making a "Crazy Bag" instead. :)


I decided that our living room couch has been ugly for too long...so I tromped off to Fields and got this pretty buttery linen.

I haven't made the pillow covers out of this fabric yet, but I did make the contrasting green pillow covers.

The couch is still ugly (IMO) but green is ever so much better than the weird loom-gone-wrong pillows before!

Here's a close up. :)

Okay, that's it. I've got some others but they can wait for another day.

See ya around!

It's been a while...

Hello all! It really has been quite a while! Here's what I've been up to this summer:

I went to Goodwill and found an XL purple shirt that I wished was my size. So I cut it up, fit it to my duct tape body form and added a vintage frilly accent. It's very frilly...

Sometimes I wonder why I make such girly things...I don't usually wear girly things...

I am proud of this next one. I made a jumper for Alexandra out of cute stripey knit that I found at Field's tent sale.




I have a thing for buttons...

I made the pockets and the bottom hem out of a yellow t-shirt. I'm going to try to make matching bloomers. If I'm successful, I'll post the results. :)

It turns out that if you add pictures after you've written text, they default to the top of the page. So I'm ending this post. I'll start a new one with my other sewing adventures. :)


Till then,
