The Biggest Baby Girl Present Ever

Hi all!
OMG I had such a busy weekend! But more on that later. I promised to show you the end result of the biggest baby girl present ever that I made for my boss (well ex-boss and current colleague). He loved it! And he told me his wife was quite amazed that I had made everything myself *happy smile*.

So let's run down the list. You know the below items already from previous posts:

Lots of baby booties

Flower decoration

Girly yoyo clown

And the Halloween outfit

On top of that I had also made some onesies that you havent seen yet:

This cute butterfly onesie, see how the purple booties match? This fabric is so soft! No idea what it is though, am thinkungsome sort of flannel...

And this onesie with a very easy applique in 4 colours with this adorable spider. Again, I tried to match the booties with the colours. The hat is made from a knitted square (am practicing so have some squares lying around) which I sewed into a tube and pulled the top together. I added pink stars by hand and one of my traditional yoyos :)

And this is the entire collection of everything included in the present. The flower, the clown, three onesies, three pairs of booties and two hats.

And the first picture has arrived already :) I asked permission to post this and was granted it so here you go. I think the hat is a hit. It looks tiny but stretches and seems to be very comfy as she doesnt want to give it up :)

As soon as I have pics of the Halloween outfit I will post it also :) So happy when people like what I make! AND it was pretty much all stashbusted!

Scissor Sock Tutorial

Image
Hi all! I've had so many request from friends for these scissor socks that I wanted to share the tutorial with you. I've been sick for a while so this tutorial is well over due. This will be my first sewing tutorial so I hope it's clear enough :) Feel free to make you own or for friends or family, but please don't use it for commercial purposes or make them to sell. It is after all not my pattern. So let's get started :) You need: 2 pieces of fabric with different print Interfacing (with ironing option on one side only) Cord Ribbon 1 button  Beads Cutting mat and ruler Rotary cutter and scissors Some sort of circular template (I use a small plate) Needle and thread Cut the fabric and the interfacing to a rectangle of 9x12.5 inches (23x32 cm). Decide which fabric you want where, this will influence the next step. Use your circular template to round one corner. The fabric you want on the top and bottom of your sock will have t

Easter Prep Stage 3 - Happy Easter!

Image
Happy Easter everyone! I hope you're having a great day and no matter where you are you've had your fair share of Easter eggs whether real or chocolate. :) I was a bit late as usual so had a few last minute projects to complete last night... Lots of cool Easter projects though, let me show you:  I started this at last week's Craft Meet. Everyone around me was knitting and I felt a bit like a 5-year old with my paint chips cutting out eggs, but there was a need for it. I found a great idea on Pinterest and just had to try it. So I rushed to the DIY store and got a pile of paint chips... Taadaa, the Easter bunting! Isn't it the coolest! The original idea was found here (please link to the ORIGINAL POST when adding this to Pinterest if you want to pin this) , and I just love it! The paint chips I used were a little different from what the original post shows, and I thought it would be nice to have some diagonal eggs as well. THAT was not such a good id

Fabulising February - Men's Shirt Dress

Image
Hi everyone! Fabulising February is nearly over and this is the last project I have managed to complete.Tomorrow I'll post a short recap showing all the finished projects. Wanting to go out with a bang, I tackled a men's shirt that the bf bought online many years ago and forgot to return it so I wanted to make something nice out of it. Seems a waste to be throwing away a brand new shirt! Granted, it was white and while probably cotton it was very thick and stiff material. So I dyed it purple. Of course. Once it was purple, I then had to try and do something with it. Easier said than done! I finally found a cute idea for a dress in blogland (didn't save the link though) and I really wanted to try that. But the instructions were super tricky so in the mending pile it went. This is the shirt. Much too large even for the bf but purple at least ;) And a bit wrinkled for being in the bag for a very long time. But with only a little time left in my Fabulising February
