Morning Surprise!

I’ve been putting more and more photos up on Flickr recently and finding some great design ideas at the same time. This morning I was cruising through the people who have favorited one or more of my embroidery photos when I discovered this little beauty tucked away in Chickenfoot’s “favorites”! Oh this makes me so happy!

Marilynkb bought one of my Manimals patterns and here I am, actually getting to see how it turned out! I never imagined how thrilling it would be to stumble on someone else’s interpretation of a pattern I’ve made. I think they turned out so well. Oh it’s a good day!

A Giddy Find

Image via: FPO

I was perusing For Print Only when I found this amazing, beautiful book that Allison Weiner is selling over at etsy! She even still has 2 in stock!! This is yet another example of something from etsy worth treasuring for a life time. And it’s handmade to boot! I can’t believe my eyes, it’s that good…

Etsy of the Week -LauraGeorge-

I stumbled on these unbelievably sweet prints on etsy today and decided to share them. The shop is called laurageorge and I’m firmly convinced that any wall would be the coolest wall ever if it were covered with her prints.

This is by far my FAVORITE print out of the whole lot… even on the whole of etsy at the moment. I want it so badly that I can almost feel it in my bones!

Worry Bunnies

So, I’ve finished a great number of little worry bunnies and here they are! I’ve heard from a little Star that someone might be interested in one…

The four along the bottom haven’t been stuffed yet, and the yellow bunny in the second row hasn’t been sewn up yet, but the rest are all done. The ones that aren’t quite finished yet certainly can be in a jiff.

These are the unfinished, but almost finished buns. There’s a wee bit of a discount if you get two o’them.

The Tin Cannery

Over the holidays I made some embroidery patterns, tested them out and decided that they would be a great new embroidered recycled tin series. These wee suited people will be making an appearance in the etsy shop soon but you can feast your eyes upon them here for now. Enjoy!

Still Busy

I may be home for the holidays but I’m still doing some things. I’ve been churning out some embroidery patterns which has been fun, but also means I spend more time on the computer than usual, trying to retrace all of my scribbly little hand drawn patterns. Having these patterns means I can have things in the shop even when I’m away from homebase, like I am now.

These three guys make up the new Octopiddle embroidery pattern up in the shop only a matter of minutes ago!

And then there’s Bea the Bunny who joined the shop as a pattern yesterday. I really like this one…

And I’ve been making some little pocket bunnies. They’re about three inches tall from their bases to the tops of their round little heads and quite fun to make. They’re stuffed with wool and have some rice in their bases to give them a little bit of heft. I love stuffing the things I make with wool instead of polyfil. The wool compacts nicer and gives everything a more solid, satisfying feel. I’d love to get my hands on some lavender or other herbs to put in the next batch.
