I thought I would try my hand at making a bear. Since I couldn't decide on what fabric to use, I used them all. I really enjoyed the process and the fabric possibilities are endless. I'm thinking of calling her Bella Bear. So much fun to name your creations.
I found this vintage dress last week at a barn sale. Aren't the colors interesting? The seamstress knew her stuff because this is made really well, zipper and all. She was a wisp of a thing though, the dress is about a size 2.
I thought I would show you the clean version of the sewing room. So much better than yesterday's picture. It's amazing how fast everything can go down hill when I'm not paying attention.
Clean floors, stacked fabrics, yarn and thread put away. Now maybe when I need something I'll actually find it. I've been known to buy the same thing twice because I can't remember where I put it. I know, that's bad.
Two quilts back from the quilter. Looks like I have some binding to do. I'm off to my parents house for lunch, they live about an hour from me. I hope you have a blessed Tuesday!
With joy,
Bella is adorable! I'm envious of your sewing room. I may be getting one soon. My daughter graduates on Saturday and we may make her room the guest room and I may take over the current guest room. I'm SO EXCITED! Although, I'm trying not to show it, yet. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love your bella.And I like your room too.
ReplyDeleteThe bear is so pretty. I also love your fabric cabinet - I need one!xx
ReplyDeleteBella looks gorgeous! I find the only problem with a tidy up is remembering where you put everything...lol...! Happy crafting, Jenny

Your bear is adorable! I love all the different fabrics you used! I think the name Bella is quite fitting for her! My craft area is the same way! I'll clean it and as soon as I work on something I've got a mess going again! Your craft room looks lovely! I hope you have a wonderful lunch with your parents!

I love Bella Bear. What a cute name to go with a cute bear. I used to make bears like that out of vintage chenille. I had forgotten that.
