When Life Gets In The Way of Crafting

Busy busy, as usual around here!  I need to write a letter, get my newer items photographed, apply for a booth at an Eco Art fest, frame the last of my Lady Gaga stuff for the benefit for Equality Texas that's the week after next, print and mail invitations to my sister's wedding shower, get a frame for a custom piece I've done, and pack to get ready to go see my parents, and I think that's it.  Whew.  

Here's the last onesie I did last week.  I think it's so cute.  It's another pattern from my Japanese embroidery book.  Look at these classy bespectacled ladies!







And here is a custom piece I did.  It's for my boss's daughter.  I hope I can find a hoop it will fit in.  I think I stitched it way too low :(  It's from the Epic Alphabet from Sublime Stitching and the crown is from Urban Threads.




Okay, I'm off to do three jillion things!

New Work

Okay, as promised, here is some stuff I have been working on.  The top onsie is from my Japanese embroidery book.  The second two are patterns from ReviDevi.  And the name tag for my desk at work is from the Sublime Stitching Epic Alphabet!  The onesies need ironing, I know.   

































More to come!  Please stay tuned.

Jordnots

Ever hear of Jordnots? Me either, until I bought some patterns for them from Wild Olive. They're little peanut-shaped characters from Sweden. I don't think I did them justice...

Acorn Head

Being sick can make you very productive.  I think the smoke from the wildfires is getting to me.
















This is a Cate Anevski pattern.  Check her patterns out!!  http://www.etsy.com/shop/cateanevski
Tomorrow- Jordnots by Molly Johansson.  I'll explain.

Embroiderer on Fire

I have been super busy making more things!  Here are some things I've been working on!

Here are a couple of  bibs- The first is from a Sublime Stitching bib kit and the other is from my Japanese embroidery book I got a while back. 

















And here are some onesies- the pirate ship and rocker dudes are Sublime Stitching and Poseidon is Aimee Ray.  





































I haven't washed this last one, so you can still see the lines.  I never stay within the lines!  ;)
