Project #24: sheets and pillowcases


So I took these:
I added dye, thread and hours of sewing with a blunt needle and I ended up with these:

I was going to crochet an edge on them but I decided I really liked the simple look of the blanket stitch.

Project 23: Thanksgiving Hearts


So I've been making stuff like crazy, now that I have a couple of days off it's time to post it all.  Here are three heart pillows I made, one of them I started about five years ago and finally finished this past week or so. Still on a mission to use up all this damn yarn....

Project #22 Avengers bunting

In addition to hoarding yarn, I also hoard fabric; FYI.
I've been meaning to make bunting for ages, and I finally got around to it this weekend.
Of course I did it super last minute as a birthday gift for an 11 year old-I started making the bunting after I was already supposed to be at the birthday party...

I could have gotten much better shots of this bunting if I had made it during the daytime.I got the Avengers fabric from Joann's Fabrics and I really like it, I have more and I'm thinking of what else I can make with it.

I have since made a bunch more bunting in different fabrics (including old clothes and sheets), and I will be posting it all shortly for your viewing pleasure.
