 Recent crafts for swaps!
My very first sewn potholder from the book The New Handmade. Front and back.
My 2nd and 3rd attempts at a sewn potholder from the same book. I got bold and tried a cupcake applique and did the cherry using the freehand embroidery needle. I was a little confused with the handle but I improvised and just did it the way I thought it should be. Came out cute, I think! The blue one is the same on the back.
A crochet water bottle holder (my partner loved it!)
Reverse applique coasters for the Coaster swap.
A card I made at a Stampin Up meetup using watercolor crayons. I sent this to Geneva.
For the zippered pouch swap. My partner likes Asian themes.
I had fun doing the watercolor cards so made a couple more for a swap. This is one of them.
And this one isn’t for a swap but for Sienna!
She may not look it but she really liked the apron. I think she wanted to go into the kitchen and start helping daddy. The cheap one that came with the little baking set she got for Christmas ripped and I used that as a template. I had no idea she’d be so into ‘cooking’!
