Chatty little bird

This was for the small daughter of friends who had us over for dinner last night:


Largely BitterSweet's pattern again, with just a few modifications. Be warned: making these is addictive.

Another Friday, another birthday party

It's Offspring the Younger's turn to be off to a slumber party. We made the entire gift this time. It consists of a totebag:


This is made from two florals from Erin McMorris' Urban Garden line for Free Spirit and a tonal paisley from the Tiddley Winks line by Arrin Turnmire for Moda. Offspring the Younger chose these from the offerings at Bolt. All three were great fabrics to work with and this was a fun project. I intend to try it again with some modifications.

We also made this fun little guy:


He's based on the wonderfully clear free pattern at BitterSweet. We will be making many more of these, I'm sure!
