For this months Blog Hop, the theme was "sew much fun!" The project could be anything as long as there was some sort of stitching somewhere. I made these fun flowersack dishtowels for our family auction. The eyes on the fabric even glow-in-the-dark; how cool is that?
Here is a closer look at the eyes. I just sewed a strip across the bottom of the dishtowel and then I sewed on the huge rick-rack. I also made a set that was red with white snowflakes and instead of rick-rack, I sewed a strip of small white pom-poms. I forgot to get a picture of those, though. I had "sew much fun" with these, I think I will make a couple more sets for each holiday and maybe some more just because. A girl can never have too many dishtowels!
My second project was curtains for Mikayla's room. She has white walls and not much color in her room, so we picked a sheer black material for the swag. Then she picked this polka-dot fabric and we stitched fabric flowers to hang on each corner of the swag. They took a couple of tries to get the flowers the same size and shape; it was a bit harder than I thought it would be. It turned out really cute, though and added some pizazz to her room.
