Today I am a surgeon

I am re-attaching puppy dog heads today. I do not know how these stuffed animal heads always come off but here I am again stitching them up. :)

Here's a clue...

This is the fabric I am using to make one of my girls Easter dress :) What do you think of these colors?  Bright and Springy don't you think???

2010 Halloween

Here are the custom costumes I made for my children and I thought I would share them with you.

A Scorpion, a Buzzy Bee, and Cleopatra.  That scorpion costume was fun to design and to make.

Something for my son.

I always spend my time making cloths and such for my girls but I hardly every make anything for my son, so the other day I asked him if he wanted me to make him something and he told me that he wanted a scorpion shirt (his new thing).  After trying to figure out if I wanted to paint him a shirt or make an iron on decal (whoops didn't have any iron-on paper). I came up with a great idea I found a cool scorpion picture that he approved and photoshopped it to change it a bit, I then took an old white tee shirt and cut out a piece a bit smaller than a piece of paper, I lightly sprayed glue onto a piece of card-stock, I than applied the tee-shirt to the card-stock, I smoothed it out really well, then I put it in my printer, and I printed in right onto the material, I took it to my iron and heat set it.  We will see how long that will last after all of the washes.

Well, here is how it turned out.  He should be happy :)

Update...

Ronnie loved his shirt.  I was thinking about this technique, this would be great to cover up stains on a shirt that is still in good shape.  Just a thought.
