just finished a munchkin hat and nappy cover for a shoot tomorrow.

and threw this bean bag together yesterday boring colours as its for photography as well!


hmm that knot in the munchkin hat looks a bit rubbish! might undo it later!!

[RandomRobot]

those look great Suzi!

at Just *throwing* the bean bag together!! I wouldnt have a clue where to start!!

[CherryBerry]

I love that bean bag! Where did you get the "beans" from? I want to make josh one but the filling was expensive in hobbycraft.

[mamatomaica]

i got them from the range, they were 2.99 a bag and i got four for that! they get everywhere though!!!
it was really simple, i just sewed a rectangle leaving a gap and fill it up, sew the gap and then the cover is just like a pilowcase as i wanted to just slip it on and off for photoshoots..eventually i'll make a black one for it too.

I love it! I have an old tellietibbie quilt cover, the one side the ages are far too big to cut up, so thought a big bean bag would be good!

(I never knew how much I could love my sewing machine!!)

Well, I just finished sewing cushion covers for our camper and I've got about 5 patterns for baby girl outfits and each has a few choices so I don't know which one to do first.

I'll have to post a before and after pic tonight when I download my pics.

I love the wands too, gorgeous!
Suzie, love your new siggy and love the bean bag pillow. I think Dunelms sells the beans too but not sure how much.

I would love to learn how to crochet too.

Well I was shopping the other day. I had some vouchers to spend and was going to buy a new denim jacket as the one I have is very faded, it's about 10 years old but was very similar to the new one I was gonna buy. so instead i bought some dye and dyed it dark blue in the washer. I couldn't believe how easy it was and it saved me £25 !

[mamatomaica]

YAY karen! dying stuff is brilliant isn't it!!
xx

[Mod-Karen]

Yes, i couldn't believe how well the colour took. It looks like a new jacket. Only PITA thing was I had to scrub the rubber seal on the washer as it was full of blue dye, even after running it on empty a few times.
