Monday Makers #2 - hosted by Nurdan @ Hug-a-Bit Quilts - is now up, and I have a few things to post :D
Here's my post for week
#1 - I started 3 different projects - a D9P quilt, a set of 3 superhero capes, and a cross-stitched-fox-embellished zipper bag. The D9P quilt is now underway - 3 of 9 blocks assembled, but no photo as the basement is so dark I couldn't get a decent picture.
The fox zipper pouch is completed, but I ran into problems --- the
XS design was too small when stitched on 14ct. waste canvas, and not having done cross-stitch in quite a while, I made every newbie mistake in the world, haha. Next one will go better - I have some 8.5ct waste cloth coming from Amazon :D I'm happy it's done, and it's still cute, despite it's imperfections :D
The superhero capes were all finished as well - they were posted
here, modelled by DS1. It has been suggested that he could have done a Superman pose to model them - we'll do that next time, LOL.
Projects for Monday Makers #2 --- SHARKS! On the left is a denim
Bedbuggs shark stuffy that's been traced onto denim and is ready to stitch up. I'm changing up the eyes - I found cool resin sew-on eyes on Etsy and they work perfectly for this guy. I also started another zipper pouch that will be embellished with a shark applique - hopefully I math better this time around compared to
last time, LOL!
Posting to Monday Makers #2 :)
P.S. I reuploaded the fox bag picture because the original one was pretty darn bad - hopefully the new one is a bit better, but I don't have a really good camera, and I'm a crappy photographer anyways :D This new picture has a bonus on it - we had a GREEN!! visitor while I had the zippy on the fence :D
