While I don't think this line was ever in the video game, there are plenty of memes that say it.

You may have seen an ad for the Magic Embroidery pen. I did and was suckered in to buying one. Its basically a punch needle, but the wrong side of a punch needle piece looks like hand embroidery.

My first project I did the finer details by hand, but learned too late to do that before using the punch needle or you accidentally rip out stitches. That's why the rocket on her suit isn't stitched.




And my second project was an actual punch needle project. Its hard to find patterns!

I wanted an easy project.  I wanted to try something with minky.  I found a tutorial on Pinterest for a minky rag quilt.  Overall it was easy to make and I did it over the weekend.  But that thing shedded like there was no tomorrow.  There's minky shed all over- the floor, my sewing table, my sewing machine, the couch, my clothes.  You should have seen the lint trap after I washed and dried it!  But it's super soft and it's a more grown-up look with the colors I chose.





The back


Do I love it?  Yes.  Would I make another one?  Heck no.  Thanks for looking!

I needed something to do with a charm pack I had and found this neat pattern.  I found an amazing cheat for binding and it turned out pretty well.

I saw an ad for a "Magic Embroidery Pen" come up in my Instagram feed.  It's basically a punch needle but I got sucked in and ordered one because it's "magic."  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077CXGJMK/ref=asc_df_B077CXGJMK5436935/?tag=hyprod-20&creative=395033&creativeASIN=B077CXGJMK&linkCode=df0&hvadid=230750746070&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=16962873804943846387&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9028880&hvtargid=pla-386668516761

Has anyone done embroidery with a punch needle?  Just wondering what to expect since it's taking for dang ever to get here.

I like quilting, but it's hard to work with bigger stuff because of how my sewing machine is set up.  Looking at Pinterest I kept seeing mini quilts so I thought I'd try some.

Here's my glam cat mini quilt.  It's about 12x10.5.


I finally found a binding tutorial that doesn't suck so it actually turned out!


This is the first one I tried.  It's made from a fat 1/8th bundle my mom gave me.  This one is 9x12.

The makeup bag was made using a tutorial from "Dog Under My Desk" and the wallet is Lazy Girl Designs "Wonder Wallet."

I am obsessed with Hatchimals Colleggtables.  I just got a bunch for my (34th) birthday.  I noticed some of them have holes and my crafty brain "hatched" an idea- bracelets!

Bunwee and Cheetree.


Here's one with Sandsnake.

I felt like sewing this weekend so I made some bags.

This one is made from jelly roll strips.  Also my cat decided she wanted to be in the picture.




My mom sent me a bunch of fabric and this was a fat quarter pack.  Not long enough to make jelly roll strips so I just made some strips and sewed them together.


I found some cute buttons.  Also my seams match up perfectly!

This month's hoopla along got me obsessed with tiny cross stitch.  It's super fun!

Cameo necklace.  Hoop is about 2" in diameter.


Disney villain necklace.  Its about 1.5"


Girl with a pearl earring.  I forgot to measure this, but I think the stitched part is a little over 1"


And here's an Ursula one that I'm not sure what to do with.
