Very cute...I saw the kids tute and so wanted one for myself......I cant wait to make one but I'm holding out till I get my ruffle foot
Yours turned out GREAT!

I love it. It fits you PERFECT and the fabric is great!

Thanks so much for the kind words.

Thanks for all the compliments. I didn't get a Pict of the back...it was a rush job as far as the Pict's to begin with....I guess I had a brain fart when it came to getting all of it...the owl was the main concern for my files

I agree...I am careful to just put my pins in the blue parts...it is big enough I can do that so i'm glad...

The cushion is just about 4.5 inches in diameter...not too big but bigger then the norm.

I just filled him with polyfil (that is what I have always filled mine with and haven't had any issues) There is a small flat rock in the bottom to keep him steady and not fly all over my table.

I have read about the Emery to fill them but my pins never go dull. They always bend way before that.

Thanks for all the compliments. Glad everyone love it as much as I do

I made this little guy yesterday. He makes me so happy when I sew with him. This totally reminds me of Mr. Sunshine from the Care Bears. It came out a bit larger then I was planning but overall sewing with it is great!

I had made myself a craft apron. well to be truthfull it was for when I went to the park or on walks with my son and I didn't have pockets and I didn't want to carry a purse. My husband called it a fancy fanny pack. But whatever...it is 100 times better then a fanny pack.

So I should have known that a few days later my son would want one for him.

He picked out the fabrics from my stash and we went to work.



Of course it has several pockets and some pencil sections as well.
I must say his looks much better on then mine....flat tummys look so cute with aprons.

I was messing around one night and made this little mushroom. I really needed to de-stress so I figured some hand embroidery would help with that. this is what the finished project was. It is stableized with rice so he stands up nice. I am still deciding if it is a Waldorf type toy or decoration. Or something more utilitarian like a pincushion or something....who knows.



I love how the bottom of the cap came out...even if it was completely by accident...A happy little accident I guess.

I have finally had the time to sit down and post some things I have been making.

Anyhow here is a shirt I made for my friends birthday gift.
I had got a new machine that actually did a satin stitch so I couldn't wait to try it out.
I learned allot from this ...never doing applique on a knit before I learned that I really need stabilizer in the back (as you can see on the leaf and that) But I think it turned out well over all. Now to make myself one.


this isn't a good Pict but I just wanted to show placement. The branch and leaves wrapped around to the back also.


here is the little guy close up.
