A New Friend

I found this cute pattern on www.modabakeshop.com, and thought it would be fun to make. Owlivia is now my official sewing buddy.

Goodwill Finds

I found these too patterns on a trip to goodwill today and had to buy them. I have looked on a few online sites for vintage patterns but they were always to expensive for my pocket book. So I was really surprised to find the pretty simplicity blouse pattern for only 99 cents. I don't no if all the pattern pieces are there but I hope so.

Today I also went to Benn Franklin crafts looking for glitter but instead found these cute little rubber stamp sets for 40% of. It was wonder full because normally they want $7.00 a piece.

New Dress Inspiration

Organization

White Wooden Cubicles

To jazz up my dull white cubicles, I used 12" x 12" scrap book paper. Each of the cubicles has its own unique print.

Stuffed Terrier

I am working on a 3D terrier. I did not have black felt, so I used brown instead.

Introducing Oopsy the Octopus

Oopsy the Octopus

Back of Oopsy the Octopus

I found this sewing project online at www.moda.com. I used scrap fabric, felt and stuffing.

No Sew Canopy

To create my no sew canopy, my father used a dowel and hooks. Next, I used my extra seafoam blue fabric and draped it over the dowel.

Lacey Flower Broach

I purchased this beautiful broach at an antique shop. The owner of the shop makes and sells them. Each one has a different antique button in the center.

Big Lounge Pillow

Homemade Curtains

My pink curtains had become faded out by the sun. So I decided to sew a new set of curtains to match my dressing room curtains and bed canopy. Seafoam blue with two different rose prints at the bottom of the curtains.

Dressing Room

My Dressing Room

Recently, I was watching a Barbie movie and became inspired by a lovely dressing room. So I used some $1.00 a yd seafoam blue fabric to create curtains for my dressing room. My father used a curtain rod, and hooks to put my curtains up. Rick-rack ties, Barbie kids chandelier, homemade rug and a pouffes.

Garland/Banner

Here is a garland/banner that I made out of scrap pieces of fabric. I found the idea on online blogs.

Ballernia Silhouette

I received a book from our friends, the Hetricks. The book is called "Paper Cuts" by author Taylor Hagerty. I made this ballerina silhouette. I found the frame at the Dollar Store.
