My Creative Space - New Projects


I've got the sewing bug again and am determined to work my way through the stash. Playing around with ideas on my dummy and loving this jacquard swiss cotton found buried at the bottom of the 'black' stash :)


I've also been given my briefing from the Little One on exactly precisely and very definitely what she wants for her winter blanket. The red and navy yarn were purchased yesterday and the white yarn is on order. I am totally in love with the individual original amazing funky idea this child has come up with, but I'm going to leaving you hanging... All will be revealed at a later date :)

ooooh - that sounds very interesting!
Can't wait to see that one! (blanket)

That fabric is so unusual.
Having a dummy must be so helpful when making an outfit. IF i sewed clothes, that would make it so much easier to do i think?!

Can't wait to see what the little one has come up with.

Yay, the sewing bug hits at 3Sheets - very fun, because you clearly have quite a talent in the fabric department, as well as with yarn, print, paper and embroidery thread. Quite sickening, really :)

Glad to hear that creative ideas run in the family, too... I look forward to catching a glimpse.

I have a maternity shirt with fabric that's almost identical to that. Very nice. :)

Mystery projects--always fun being led by a kiddo, isn't it?

The dress is gorgeous. I have major dress dummy envy. The blanket will look great. Don't you love it when your kids get so interested in a project that you are making?
