I have sewn

Yeah it’s true I have done something these past weeks..just been slack in the bloggy dept…am going to endeavour to improve that from here on in….

Remember awhile ago  I enlarged and stitched this Wonky Houses designed by Jenny from Elefantz… Well it has sat on my work table since –I would spy it every now and then and think hmmm what will become of you-and then the light popped on and I got sewing….

P1030412 [800x600] And there we have it one Wonky House toaster cover.

Mental note to self iron item before taking a pic.

Now ona  totally different scale of things, a lady I know had a b-day last Monday, and I decided in all my wisdom to make her a frog-cause she is mad about frogs like I am chooks….

I had this pattern that I bought awhile ago-it’s 3 diff animal pincushions..so i decided I was making the frog…ermm well this blasted thing took 2 days to make and has bucket loads of fart-fiddly hand stitchin.The pattern lacked many instructions. From somewhere inside me came the determination to finish this beasty and I did…Hubby thinks it’s kewl for a frog LOL….

P1030423 [800x600] When I took it downstairs to show hubby it tried to runaway and jumped in this stump…

Then on the way back upstairs in jumped in here P1030425 [800x600]

Suffice to say it is now packed in a bag ready to go to it’s new home.

Cheers Vickie.

Thanks for stopping by.
