Stuffed Dogs

Stuffed Dogs

I've mentioned I get a bit obsessive with projects.
I'm sewing and stuffing Scottie dogs.
My friend Andrea has convinced me to sell at the Wheeler Farm Farmers Market.
I'll try it out.
I have a few Scottie dogs to sell.

Freya: "This is how dogs say 'hello' ".


Yes Freya.

Tulle Over the Top

September 17, 2011

Tulle Over the Top

I sewed my self a skirt .
I was planning on taking it to Disneyland when we go next Saturday but after sitting in it I decided it's only a standing dress. I guess I'll need some leggings with it.







Sewing tulle sucks. This time instead of ruffling it I gathered bunches of strips and sewed them on .



I fell in love with this fabric the first time I saw it.

It's by Alexander Henry : The Ghastlies.

It reminds me of Edward Gorey.








I want to make a softie of the little fat boy in stripes.













And the best is the knitting witches!





The fabric also reminds me of my favorite Halloweeny book.







I've been on a healthy eating kick.

To those that complain they can't eat healthy I present to you The Village Bakery sandwich.

(9000 south a bit east of Redwood).

$5.25
You can't eat both halves in one sitting.





Turkey provolone on sourdough.




Chicken salad on multi grain wheat.


Cheers!
