Yikes how did i let that happen?

Almost a month since my last post.  But its still been a very busy time in my life.  But I do try to sneak in time to get crafty here and there.  Yesterday was no exception, it was my first day off in 8 days and I spent the majority of it in my studio.   What was I working on?   Well I embroidered a towel for a co worker who is into cos play and needed this for a costume she was making.  Here is a picture of it.  I want to thank a face book friend who helped me out by digitizing the symbol for me.... YOU ROCK!

We've not soaked out the stabilizer yet so that is the white stuff you see around the edges.


It turned out really nice, I'm not a very experienced yet using the embroidery machine.  But it also got me a lil more comfortable in using it and I learned a lot doing this project.  It got me in the mood to try a in the hoop project I noticed everyone on a f.b. group I joined was making.  So I found out where to buy the design from and got with it.  Here is the design I wanted to try....


I bought the design from here.... Dolls and DayDreams.  They have some super cute designs and I loved how they gave you step by step directions making it super easy to make.

Here is my first one I made yesterday and I have another one in the hoop now for my grandbaby.  I plan on making a few for display in my house for Easter.

This one is for my granddaughter Alexandria...


Don't ya think it is adorable?

What else have I been working on?  Well I you know me I always have more then one or two projects going on at once.  I've been working on my Merry Go Round challenge for my quilt group.  Here is mine and yes I need to do some un-sewing and resewing can u see my goof?


I've also been working on our round robin challenge for quilt group but I'm can't post that just in case she is lurking out there.  LOL!!!

So I have just a few hours left till I go to work and I hope to get another bunny done so I need to close out this post now.  Sorry I was so long I am going to try and make it my goal to post once a week at the least. 

One more photo before I go.  Here are my studio helpers.  Lucy and Ethel!


Happy Crafting!!!!

  1. Love the bunnies! I don't have an embroidery sewing machine, but I might be able to embroider the same face by hand. They are so cute! And, yes, I did spot the mistake in the cat and heart quilt - top right hand corner block turned the wrong way? I love it just as it is. When mistakes are made, I just call it "charming".
