Kung Fu Panda, Thomas, and Swing Birds.....

As we're off to Pandamonium in the Park on Saturday, I told Jamie I was going to make him a new shirt to wear and he said he wanted a Kung Fu Panda one lol!

So, one modified Imke hoody later - here it is! 

I added a custom curved yoke...and Panda ears.

He loves it.

I also made another Thomas back pack - this time in red - for my friend Jane's little man. I think it looks great in this colour!

and finally, a self drafted camera strap cover with a lens cover pocket...I actually need to make myself one of these now lol!

So all in all a productive day here at SMM Towers lol!

Thanks for looking

I love my Postman.....

because he brings me pretty fabric from my favourite fount of fabricky (not even a word? lol!) goodness - Sew Me Happy! lol!

Fabrics are: 

Denyse Schmidt - Hope Vally Prairie Rose New Day

Free Spirit - Designer Beads Powder

Michael Miller - Ta Dots Ebony

Ribbon - Black with white spot Grosgrain

I ordered this little lot to make a bag for my friend...but when it arrived I wasn't keen on the fabric/ribbon combo! So after a quick think and an email or two to my friend...we came up with this combo instead from my stash! Phew!

Ribbon - East of India Grey Heart (also from Sew Me Happy)

Fabric - Miscellaneous from stash lol!

Much better, yes? 

The grey dots and black ribbon won't go to waste - I'll just use them on something else lol!

Thanks for looking

As it feels like Spring....

I thought I'd share with you this bag I made yesterday...

I designed and drafted the pattern, and made it up myself!

it's called the 'Romance' Bag, and the pattern will be available soon.

This was my first time trying to make this style of fabric flower - I think it turned out ok!

Fabrics used are:

Tanya Whelan - Delilah Roses on Red

Michael Miller - Dumb Dots Fuschia

Riley Blake - Be Merry Polka Dot on Cream

Ribbon - no idea - an odd piece from my stash lol!

and also....see that vase of tulips in the first picture?

That's what Russ surprised me with yesterday morning when he came home from work - what a sweetie he is!

Of course I had to take some pictures - they're too beautiful not to!

Thanks for looking!
