I finally finished the project I'm super-proud of! 
It's a portrait of my pitbull Patch. I designed the pattern from a photo.
After lots of changes in Photoshop, the pattern editing program and during the stitching process

this photo



turned into this



I need to iron it and to find a suitable frame but I wanted to show it off as soon as I finished the stitching 

I needed to find a gift bag for one of my best friend's birthday present, but I couldn't find anything suitable in the shops and I had only very little time for it. The only solution - I made my own gift bag!
about 30 minutes later:


The gift bag is sewn from a layer of the kind of cloth that is usually used for cross-stitch (like Aida?) and two layers of tulle

after the bag was done I added a little decorative... thing  made from polymer clay

closeup of the thing

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
I'm glad to introduce you to Mr. Turtle 



he's also saying 'hallo!' to everyone


and here you can see his belly


He is needle felted and has a comfortable clay shell. You can take the shell off and then you have a naked Mr. Turtle, but sorry, no pics... you know, kids might be watchin' this thread and all the stuff  that's why I'll keep this little bit of Mr. Turtle's privacy 

Lately I didn't had much time for any creative activities because of my job and a lot of studying for the University, but yesterday I KNEW that i had to make at least a super-quick project or I'd go crazy so I decided to do some stenciling
I found this cute bull terrier image on-line and modified it a little bit, then I used simple acrylic spray paints in two colors - blue and purple

The "HG" sign was already on the shirt when I bought it  (I didn't realized before how difficult it is to find simple T-shirts without any pictures, letters, words, labels etc...)

it's the whole T-shirt, I'm sorry, I realized only after the picture was taken that the left part of the T-shirt looks really crooked but I was too lazy to take a new picture 


and a closeup, colors slightly washed out by the flash

well... as the title of the topic already says, here it is! my first biscornu! 

I decided to keep the pattern simple because of the pretty yarn and nice color combination, so it's quite "geometrical" 



and I promise you, in real life it isn't so crooked! this shape is just too weird for taking good pics!

I desperately wanted to try my hand in bead embroidery and I already plan a quite big project, but before I start it, I decided to try something quick and small.
So this ducky appeared! I'm very proud of it because it's my first real own pattern!  don't laugh, I know that it isn't that impressive but still I needed something to start with! 

this is a very simple project but I desperately wanted to do it, I don't know why   
Now he is sitting on my computer desk and watching me typing this post 

material: clay imitating natural stone, a core made of paper and metal foil and a plastic eye


and one closeup just because I like him so much 

This is an image that I made on a store bought hoody as a birthday present for a friend.
Unfortunately I don't have an action shot of him wearing it =( but the size of the whole pic was almost like a A4-sheet
the idea of this picture is based of our inside joke about him being a cat and his girlfriend being a bunny. So I wanted to show their love 

without flash


with flash (more lifelike colors but also strange spots on the black parts. In real life they are solid black)

this is my very first attempt to make a clay cartoon 

it's very simple and short but I'm still super-proud of me  I hope that one day I'll be able to create something more impressive 



please excuse the crappy quality, I tried to make it as lightweighted as possible

last weekend I bought this great yarn and didn't know what to do with it



but then I decided to make a cosy for my phone so that it would stay safe and protected in my bag. It was a super simple and fast project, but turned out very pretty because of the yarn

here it's open


and closed


and I also made myself a simple wristband but it's so difficult to make pics of your own wrists =( it's the best one I could get  It's very blurry but you get the idea! The wristband is done in Tunisian stitch and the ends are simple chains
