Show and Tell – and not just mine!!

Well I finally got around to making something that’s been in my sketchbook for quite a while … and my Bear (DD2) is very pleased that I did - as this is for her :o).

Meet Mr Hoot!! He’s lovely and snuggly with soft chenille under his little wings and on his back …

Even his little toesies are squishy soft too :o)!! He stands about 16” tall and is quite a chubby 14” wide so he’s just right for cuddling :o).

I’ve also been busy making another project, but this one  I can only share a few sneaky peeks for now.

I can tell you that it’s a bag though.

I just love fabric covered buttons – they always match he he ;o).

I fell in love with the fabric I used, it’s called “Antiquities” by Michael Miller and mines been waiting patiently in my stash for me to pluck up the courage to cut it lol.

     I also discovered quite by accident that it was more than appropriate to use for a bag for me. Look what it says across the top of the back of the bag… Is it my wicked mind or does anyone else think that this looks like it says “For the Shite” LOL????!!!!! 

Here’s some more ‘show and tell’ but this time it’s not made by me, it’s made by Karyn. She sent me this pick of her sewing caddy that she made using my ‘Honeybun Fun’ pattern. Isn’t it fabulous!??!! You can see more pics of her gawjus bag on her blog, including some really pretty stitcheries that she put on the front – which I think look simply beautiful!! Pop on over and see for yourself :o).

Well I’m off to do some pattern writing … hope you all have a fabulous day!!!!
