Dino-mite Pillow Case

This is the finished pillow case from the post below. Aidan was so excited when I gave it to him. Enjoy...

Dino-mite...

This is a pillow case I am making for Aidan. I will post finished pictures later. The dinosaur and name measure 9.5" long, and 5.25" wide, so the image is not as large as it appears. The picture is a close up of the design. I really have not done anything special for nap time stuff at school. I know this is bad timing since this is his last day of school, but this will be for next year. Maybe I will get really creative and make him a quilt for school as well. (Okay, don't hold your breath, I'm just now getting the hang of this kind of stuff). Until next time...

A Teacher Gift...

This will be the end of year thank you gift for Aidan's teacher.

Embroidery

Hello everyone. It has been a long time since I have posted anything. I am sewing for my kids. Okay, the short version of the long story. My sewing machine is not the greatest in the world. Lately, the stitches have been getting really sloppy, so I felt it was time to invest in a new machine. Well, I couldn't get something simple (lol), so I bought an embroidery sewing machine. This is my first attempt at monogramming. I'm playing with fabric and stabilizing material, so I'm going to be working the bugs out. For instance, I don't like the puckering around the letters. Okay, it's not puckering, it looks like the fabric is permanently wrinkled. The picture looks worse than the actual monogram. So, thanks for stopping by and checking out my new toy. I have lots of practicing to do. Until later...Bye for now.
