Just a little starch |
I pressed those dish towels I worked on during my travels on the turnpikes and think they just look so cute. I am especially loving the pink one with the varied tones. I have some green thread like it and may not be able to resist the urge to embroider more bunnies.
Gettin' all medieval on... |
An old friend asked if I could whip up a medieval tunic with a cross on it that her kid needs for school. I was happy to once I figured out the logistics to get it to her in Chicago in time. This is made from some of that flannel I picked up over the weekend. I was really happy with the way it has a kind of sueded look to it. Hopefully her kid will approve. He says it has to make him look like a soldier. That kid could use a lesson from the Master Thespian, Jon Lovitz—“Acting!”
I am feeling so behind on my plans to make stuff. Thank you all for your encouragement. It really helps. It feels like Christmas is flying at me at top speed. I keep thinking of all the things I want to get done before I head out to da burg again. Tomorrow I hope to finish up a couple of half-made things to ship out and hopefully add a couple of gnomes to Zoe’s tree skirt.
As long as Felicity and Fergus approve…
The tunic looks fantastic AM, absolutely perfect!! Open for business I'd say.
ReplyDeleteWhen the soldier saw this first thing this morning, he shrieked (like an 8 year old boy) and was thrilled!!
ReplyDeleteOh I am so glad, Analisa! It sounded like he wasn't convinced of our plan. :)
