Tooth Fairy Pillow

Hi! I think it's been a while since I shared something here. I made this pillow case in the beginning of December and now it's almost Christmas. Can not believe that Christmas is next week!

Here's the pillow case I sewed up using this fun fabric I bought from Stitch Stash Diva on Etsy. I love the bright colors and the rainbows, so girly. I followed the instructions from here on how to sew this envelope style pillow case. I kind of just guessed on the pocket and used some heat bond adhesive for the n. I don't think I'm ready to do that complicated looking zigzag stitching around the letters and appliques. I will try to practice that next year.

The pocket is large enough for some money or a little gift or maybe even a small toy. The pillow is 12 x 16 inches.

These past few weeks have been a bit busy with lots of crafting. I think I have just a couple more things to make and then I'm done. So today is finally a kind of rest day and I am contemplating a nap before picking up my kids.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

nuts and bolts

Hello! Today I'll be sharing the last amigurumi I made during my crochet frenzy. I haven't been crocheting much recently except for this one little project I'm kind of procrastinating with. I really do love this last one because I think it came out really cute. This is a little crocheted robot designed by Bubblegum Belles . You can find the pattern HERE . Sometimes I purchase the patterns especially if they are really cute. But a lot of designers do list their patterns for free too on their blogs so I always check to see if they have a blog or not. It's also important to read their pattern listing too if you are purchasing to see whether they are for personal use or also for commercial use. Here is a different view of him. Happy that he is able to sit on his bottom. I actually cut out 2 felt hearts using a heart die, blanket stitched them together, and then hot glued the heart to the robot. I tried stitching one h...

I glued that tag onto kraft cardstock and used my ruler to cut a 1/8th inch border aro...

Snowman gift card holder

Hi! I was planning to post this last night but I was just too tired to write or think of complete sentences. It's been a busy week with the boys on Fall break and still trying to finish up a bunch of crafts. I have been trying to make some crocheted crafts to put in my Etsy shop and finally I'm done with one. It's a crocheted snowman that can hold a gift card or anything actually that is small enough to fit in the pouch. The pattern is designed by ChiWei Ranck of One Dog Woof and can be found HERE . Here's the little snowman with his arms folded over in the front to look like he is hugging the card. I added this fun card that I stamped. You can definitely add in a gift card too behind this card. The gift card reaches under his nose. This is how the little opening of the pouch looks. I hope I can make more of these little guys. These would be so cute for teachers and I think it would be easy to put a little wire throug...
