Karina"s Bible Cover

I made this for one of Christi's friends. I have been slacking in the sewing department lately. Like I said before I don't have all my stuff out. I do not like having to pull this out and that out to do my projects. But I do love to make things.
I did have a few problems with this one, and its not as good as it should have been but I know Karina will like it. Karina, I am going to put it in the mail tomorrow. Send me an e-mail when you get it, just so I know.
Also hope you like yellow cuz it matches the front yellow. Pink would not have matched.

Beads

Well I am doing beads because I just can't seem to stay focused on my sewing. I had to downsize my room because of the showing of the house so I don't have my large table and my machines are all on one desk, which gives me little room and less motivation. So I started the beads. These are necklaces for Mya and Tira. I have to redo a clamp on Tira's. Guess I didn't sqeeze hard enough so it would not come loose. Ooppps!!






Here are ankle bracelets as requested Christi and Chloe. Chloe wanted green and I could not decide on Christi's so I made her two. She wanted brown.

Redone chair


I got this chair from an office job, Buzzy did. Well its in good condition but it looks worn. So Since I made those window toppers in that one room. I decided to do the chair like it. The seat has elastic around it just in case I need to wash it and the back comes off too.

New toppers


I made one of these for each of the two windows in this room. I painted the walls the other day and wanted something on the windows to make it look a bit better. It gives the room a lot of color. I think maybe too much but this is the way its going to stay till the house sells.

Joshua's jacket


Here is a jacket I made for Joshua, it has a hood. It took me a long time to embroider the spiderman on there. Two pockets makes it twice the time. 160 min. But it got done and I am happy.

Jennifer just loved it and it made me happy that she was so happy to have it.

Hats Hats Hats

Ok I know I am nuts. It started out with just a couple hats, then Chloe wanted me to make another hat for her friend so I told her to give one of hers to the girl and I would make her different colors. Well I then made a green and a blue and Mya a multi color and Tira and Trinity Black. Well Tira said her hat is too tight so I told her I would make her another. She wanted one like Mya. Well there I went with my scraps to make more hats and didn't count right. One multi-color for Chloe, one for Tira, one for Trinity and Mya had one. Hmmmm so I have and extra medium hat. The coat I made for Christi didn't fit, so Chloe got it. So how can a girl have a jacket without a matching hat. I had to make two because, I don't remember which brown I used. So Chloe has two brown and white hats too. I am so done with these hats. I think I will hide the pattern from myself. This way I will not even think of making more hats. Hee hee hahah

Hats Hats and more Hats

Here is Chloe in the hat I made her.
It always seems like I go overboard when I make things for the kids. Like the purses and the dresses with everything to match. Well Chloe's friend wanted a hat like hers. Chloe had one that was a bit big for her. I told her to give her that one and I would make another out of a different color. She picked blue first then green. So I made her one of each. Then I could not leave Tira out cuz Mya had one from before. So then I didn't want to not leave Trinity out, Jennifer's girl, since Christi and her are close friend. So I made her one. Then I had some fabric I was going to toss so I made Mya another hat. Goofy me!!


Here are some more. Guess who the mixed color one is for?? Give up?? Mya!!












Here are the linings I used.

Some Embroidery

These are embroideries I bought but the NFL takes forever to do and also a lot of thread.












This one did not turn out good, you can see between the yellow and the white the black. Well that should have been full of white. But it did not do it. I am e-mailing the people I got it from.
















This one I really wanted and was hoping the Ravens would go all the way. But they did make it this far and that is good too. They should be proud either way, though their fans would not agree with me.

Christi's jacket


I made this jacket for Christi. I had a bit of a hard time as I usually do with a new pattern. But I got it done. I have not sewn the buttons on yet, they are just pinned. Not sure if I want them there or not. It didn't call for any. It calls for snaps to hold the jacket shut. I will have to get some and then sew them on the inside. The jacket looks much much better than the pic.

I made this Bible Cover for my daughter. It turned out pretty good. It of course has some things I could have done better but it is only my second one. The other was done in August.










Here is the inside of the Bible Cover.
