Felting

I knitted myself a little tophat a few weeks ago. I haven't felted anything in ages. It's so fun to watch it go from giant and blobby to cute! It took me a bit to figure out how to decorate it, but I'm pretty pleased. I used little watch gears and I think they worked out pretty well.



Sewing

Not sure why the urge struck, but when I saw the pattern for these fat quarter bags, I wanted to make one. Super easy, and too cute. It got me to dust off the sewing machine and realize I don't HATE sewing. And I am perfectly capable of doing it.


Since I was on a roll, I also made this apron. It's too cute...owls and frogs.

Orange


I'm ready for Halloween! I have a bright orange chair and a black cat! I dyed the cover for my Ikea chair orange. I was hoping for a bit darker orange, but ah well. Eva really likes it!
