Protective




I'm finally getting to the end of my early 2013 sew-athon efforts, and I only have iPhone snaps as these headed straight off to their new homes.

First up - an iThingy Sleeve for an Android Tablet (Samsung). It's nice and blokey with my Linear design fabric and I couldn't resist adding a bit of nuts and bolts at the top just for fun.


Lastly, a protective pouch for a Nintendo DS. It has a velcro opening for ease of access for little hands, and a detachable neck strap in an attempt to prevent little hands from dropping it.

If you ever need a custom pouch for a gadget, you know who to call!

The Weekend


How time flies when I spend time hanging out with my little nephews.


I took Moo Moo and Nico to a friends sons 6th birthday party on Saturday.
The DS pouch was a hit - the birthday boy loved it!
All the kiddies had a great time - there was a pinata, pass the parcel, and pin the tail on the donkey.
I filled the boys up with sugar and food colouring and then delivered them both back home to their parents (that's the advantage of being the aunty).

Collecting firewood

On Sunday I headed out to mums place in the country for some fresh air with my Sister and BIL and the kiddies.

 Climbing into the goat enclosure

The boys had a great time running around and visiting all the animals on Nana's farm.


They got to feed the chooks and ducks, and collect the eggs....


...and talk to the goldfish.
 

There's a big tree in the paddock next to the house with four swings...


.... and plenty of space for fossicking.

What fun!

My Creative Space... or welcome to WIP world


Everything is just slightly chaotic in my creative space this week....

I seem to have lots of projects on the go, all in a similar state of unfinishedness.

The dress, arms, and legs above are for a softie that I'm making for mum for mothers day, on behalf of my little sister. When we visited last week, Sel was teasing that there weren't enough happy snaps of herself dotted around mums new cottage. We were trying to hatch a plan of making some sort of cardboard cutout when Liesl came up with lightbulb moment suggestion of making a softie.

I bought myself some ink-jet printable fabric, and I'm going to print a photo of Sels face to make the head of the softie. I'm hoping that mum thinks it's as hilarious as we do!


I'm also still working on a little DS pouch that I started last weekend. A friends little boy is having a birthday party on Saturday and his main present from his parents is going to be a DS Lite.


I've added some heavy wadding to the inside in case of accidents...


.....and a tab with a D-ring, to attach a little lanyard that I whipped up in the same cute cogs fabric.

I just need to make the inside of the pouch (if I can remember the original dimensions as I didn't write it down as I was working...aaaagghhhhh).

Here's hoping that I get them finished today!


As always, make sure to visit the mighty linky list over at Kirsty's place
