I hope you're all smiling because it's Friday. But just in case you need a little mid-morning pick me up, Harper says, "Oh, hai!"
It's fun having a model for onesies now. I used Danielle's Kawaii Cute Fruits pattern set for this project. I actually enlarged the pattern just a bit, used a Sulky iron-on transfer pen, (Which you can now get here, through Sublime Stitching!) and transferred the image directly on to a piece of red felt.
I know I've shown several projects with embroidered felt patches before, and I'm just curious, would anyone be interested in an embroidered onesie or felt patch tutorial? Sometimes jersey material can be tricky to deal with, and I thought it might be nice to share some tips.
I have another project idea for Danielle's fruit patterns, but I need to work out a few of the kinks first.
While you're at it, be sure to check out Danielle's Eame's inspired coat rack tutorial!
What a great weekend project this would be. I love the colors she used!
Also, she's hosting a giveaway on her blog, so be sure to try your luck with that. Since I'm on the creative team now, I don't feel right about entering, but I would love for you to win!
Another great weekend project to consider? How about a crib mobile made from fabric dots?!
I'm kind of crazy in love with this project, made by Jaime of "Sew She Sews". Her blog and her Flickr stream are so inspiring, you should take a look.
I hope you all have a great weekend, and I'll see you next week!
Hugs & Stitches,
Amy

Oh, cute! :) Your stitching is fabulous!! Love it to bits - what a cute onesie (and cutie in the onesie, too!) he he. Happy weekend!
Thanks for the shout out! You rock! Your blog=awesome. Love those cupcake toppers! And Harper and the onesie are one big ball of adorable.
Cute onesie and happy baby! I would love tips on embroidering/patches on onesies! I have found the knit very hard to work with when I've tried. Somehow, you make it look easy!
Hi, Amy-
I am new to the world of embroidery, and your blog is so inspiring! I would love for you to do a tutorial on the felt patches and working on t-shirt material- that would be great!
