WIP Wednesday – So many finishes (long post)

 

Yesterday was another happy mail day, but not fabric this time. My wool arrived to finish my “Kira” the kangaroo doll and do a few of the other laylala dolls.

 

 

Started:

Caravan Paper Piecing –- I started my next paper piecing project 2 days ago, and nearly finished all tiny bits, but then I had to stop coz I got a major headache and I just had to lay down. But tomorrow I had a sewing day over at a lovely friends house. Im impressed we even found time to sew with all 6 kids together, but they behaved really well and so I got nearly my whole caravan finished.

Finished:

Paper Piecing –- Started this cute Flower Pot Pattern “Hello Spring” by Charise Creates, last week and totally loved it, how easy it was. My second paper piecing project and Im already addicted to it.

 

Since a long time now I wanted to make one of these pouches by noodlehead, but not sure I just wasnt thinking really logical lol, coz after cutting the corners, I immediately knew I did something really stupid. Yes now I have the flower pot on the bottom. Its just for me so I dont mind, the pouch is still the cutest I have ever made, and really really big. Now I can fit in all my sewing notions when I go on my guild meeting.

Summer Sparkler - I totally love all those cross stitch patterns by The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery and had to stitch it immediately when I saw it, its just the cutest. Even Im not American, I loved it, it will go into a miniquilt for my lovely friend Tanyia.

Key Fobs –- I also tried my hand on some key fobs. The first one was a bit too soft, so I made another one with a more stiff batting and I love it, its already on my keys.

Dresden Pillow -– My mom requested another pillow in the colorway she already got a few things. This are not my colors, definitely not, but I have to say I really like this pillow now.
