Flower Bow

I am told that I am crafty,

and I know that there is a lot that I can do,

but I have a fear for some reason,

a fear of making bows,

(And that is the only reason that Jo doesn't wear one every day,

cuz if I didn't have this fear, she would have boxes filled)

soo.....

I have a couple of girlfriends that make bows and I am so envious,

but maybe today they will be just a little jealous of what I made

Cute, huh? 

So, after today, I have decided that I will give a couple more designs a try

but I will take it slow 

This is my new favorite blogsite:

Fabric Bows and More 

Here is the tutorial for this particualr bow:

Ribbon Flower 

Jo said she would wear it "maybe morrow"

so I snatched it back, and but it on my headband

Hey, I like pink too!

(she is pissed)

Sorry such a poor picture, but I made this last week

I didn't follow the direction to a T, so it doesn't look perfect,

but nonetheless, I spent NADA ENCHILADA on it!

Here is the tutroial:

Under the Table and Dreaming

SuperHero Felt Pillow

It's Michael's Birthday

Michael is into everything superhero,

so I made him a SUPERHERO PILLOW!

I tried to make the front like how the comics infer violence with "Pow" and "Bam" 

The RICKRACK is a little womby,

but it was my first time using it to trim a pillow

Then the back,

 I went a little over board,

 with the main superhero logos

(And this time I made sure that I spelled his name right, Haha)

Felt Personlized Pillow

So I made a huge mistake this last week,

One which was so easy to aviod

...

My girlfriend's daughter's birthday party was on Sunday,

I got really excited because I wanted to try to make a personalized pillow with felt.

I didn't have a design,

I was just going with whatever came in my mind at the time

I loved the outcome,

and bragged about it to close relatives

Get to the party....

I spelled the girl's name wrong

Really Jillian?  REALLY?

I'm so mad!

They were very understanding,

but come on,

how much are they going to cherish a misspelled pillow

At least I got her intials right on the back side,,,

at least I think I did

I also had another "Ashely Order"

This time I wassure excited because she asked me to do a Chi O set of Burper and Onesie

My sister-in-law is a XO and I, having spent a fair amount of time with her friends have a certain fondness for that particular sisterhood 

Here is the Chi Omega Set

(I took the pic. before I sewn the bow on) 

Here it is finished

And seeing that I could not send the little girl a tie onesie,

 I duplicted the Bobcat on the onesie and placed bows on the sleeves,

and instead of the normal camo ribbon on the burper, I used black

(I still can't find a suitable tan color, I wonder why that is?)
