Handmade baby mobile

Another little baby project for beautiful little Noah. Pretty explanatory from the pics, didn't use a pattern this time just made it up as I went along but makes the cutest pressie!

Today I made a small fox

This evening I took a break from drawing and thought I'd get all crafty! It's nearly my beautiful niece Grace's 2nd birthday and so I set about making a wee soft toy for her, here's the story! Admit I did a lot of unpicking along the way and double stitched the arms and legs on in the wrong place- twice.. eek! Feeling chuffed with myself for no good reason!

Lets start at the very beginning... (Be warned, I am a beginner and therefor very botcho!!)
Supplies needed: A simplicity Pattern K1549, Sewing machine, threads, contrasting felt remnants and patterned fabric, stuffing and a needle.

   

 

And looking very attractive inside out!                            Followed by some very messy hand stitching on foxy's noggin!                       

 Sewed the final eyes in place and voila....! x

 

Freya's Hand painted Daily Schedule!

Thought I'd share a little project I've been working on for my little bridesmaid Freya. Her mama, papa and I worked through the idea of making her a pictorial schedule of the the current and following day and here is the final outcome!

The drawings were hand painted in gouache and then laminated and velcro-ed for durability and sticky fingers!

 

 Lets start at the very beginning.. Today and Tomorrow boards!

And the days of the week to pop at the top each day!

I've grouped a few of the activities but here are details of the little paintings! xx
