Peace Pillow

From my previous post with my peace sign I made in illustrator I decided to make a pillow. And by the way – I LOVE embroidery, its so fun!

You can purchase this pillow here on my etsy site!

Peace!

After a few days of browsing the web for cool embroidery patterns I thought I would try and make one of my own. I haven’t actually tried out any of the patterns yet – but I am so anxious to do it… I just have to find the time. But here is my first attempt modeled after the peace sign fabric I found & made in Adobe Illustrator! Feel free to try it out if you want to!

Coffee Cozy

I got this idea from a knitted coffee holder that I saw! I decided to try it out with felt! It fits perfectly for a Starbucks coffee cup… or a cup from any other place I’m sure! I hope you like them… I’m in love!

The place that I am selling my stuff at for the Craft Festival has lots of people that love coffee… so I might make a few of these to bring with me to!

Jingle Bells…Jingle Bells!

Ok… yea so I’m 3 months early I know… but I just am super excited for the holidays! So… tonight I made a couple cute little ornaments out of some scrap felt I had lying around! I can’t even WAIT to hang them on our tree!

Embroidery Practice

I have been seeing some really cute embroidery crafts lately that I would really love to try! A while back I started embroidering a little bib and never finished it… so I figured now is a pretty good time! I am going to try to actually finish it… even though it is a very simple design… not to exciting! But still cute!

New Faces in Tooth Fairy Pillow World

I know I’ve been away so I wanted to post some new ideas I had for some tooth fairy pillows! I will be posting them on Etsy sometime this week! These don’t show exactly what they look like… because they aren’t entirely completed yet… but they are still cool pictures none the less! ENJOY!

International Juggling Day

Today is… International Juggling Day! Yay!

So I tried to make some little bean bags to juggle with! I think I am going to give them to Jeremy for a gift! If any of you make some let me know… and share your ideas! I would LOVE to hear them!

Birthday Card

So my Mom’s birthday is coming up and I haven’t quite figured out what to get her yet… and I will be giving it to her at the beach next week! Since I didn’t know yet… I figured I would make her a sweet little card to see if I got inspired about anything else….which didn’t work… but I embroidered it! It came out pretty cute!

Owl Softie

So this is my FIRST plushie ever! I am super excited… and I think it came out pretty well! Only I am really terrible at sewing the finishing touches up on a project after stuffing it… if you have any tips for me I’d love to hear them! )

I used a soft Snuggle Fabric brand for the owl material… and felt for the eyes and nose… with buttons as an added extra! Then just used matching fabric for the body! Pretty cute I’d say… for a first attempt anyway!

Felt Tooth Pillow with CRAZY Hair

So here is my 2nd version of my tooth fairy pillow… this one has crazy hair! In my opinion its a little cuter than the 1st one… the more I make the more ADORABLE they will be!

I also decided instead of trying to manage and deal with an Etsy site… I am going to sell my stuff at some local festivals this year first… to see how it goes! The first one I am going to attend is the AUTUMN JUBILEE in SALISBURY, NC OCTOBER 4-5th! Autumn Jubliee Link
I have my work cut out for me but I’m so excited that I don’t care! So go ahead and plan on attending!

However… if you do see something you would be interested in buying just let me know and we will work it out! )
