I finally got around to trying out your tutorial, and here is what I made today:







Thanks for the inspiration stargirl!

I received an awesome package from Amanda, aka aeillill, yesterday, it included a stencilled shirt, handmade cards, and a beautiful embroidered pillow case.
Thank you so much!

Here are pics of what I sent to aeillill, she recieved her package yesterday. I had a lot of fun using my skills to make birdie goodies!



included was a pillow, bag, owl hair pin, bird heart pin, owl finger puppet, bird feeder, bottle cap magnets (my new obsession), and coasters. (sorry the pics are not so great, it is really hard to find good light sometimes!)

I recieved an awesome package from fl_mariposa. It included books, food and treats with a cute treat bag, toys and a winter scarf. Thanks again!!!

Here are my gals enjoying their new toys:





This is what I sent to fl_mariposa  :

Everyone's embroidery looks great, so inspiring!
I have been working on projects from the Stitch It Kit, these are some bibs for my brother and his wife who are expecting soon.
Fun!

I recieved a very cool scarf from alison today! I can't wait to wear it tommorrow! I will post pics of it as soon as my cam batteries get recharged   
Thanks alison!

Finally, here is a pic of the scarf as modeled by my bird:

I recieved my ultra-fabulous package from lilmissdogooder this weekend!
Included was an pin-up girl utensil holder, an art deco recipe box, awesome vintage canning lablels, some tastey looking crocheted Newman O magnets, and a vegan cookzine filled with recipes!


 

How beautiful is that? Thanks lilmissdogooder for all of the crafty kitchen goodies!

By the way you have really nice handwriting 

Yay, I got my pillow from dani24, it is really awesome. I think it is made out of ties.
Danielle, you really should do a tutorial on it.
Thanks so much, I love it!

So here's my bag!
I used the messenger bag tutorial. I did not need another messenger bag so I made a smaller version.

Here's the bag:




And I made a pocket in the back:


This is only the second bag I have made, and the first one that I actually like. The lining material has bees on it and the outside material is some funky stuff I found in the Home Dec section, its almost carpety.

I made a bunch of cloth pads yesterday! I recycled some flannel and a towel, and bought some inexpensive nylon from Joannes. I made twelve pads and 12 inserts, and it cost me less than 5 bucks!
Thanks thixle for the awesome tutorial!
