Crazee Bunny for Andrew


I made this bunny for Andrew to wish him a quick recovery from his eye surgery. My poor little boubou. But he's a brave little boy, and still smiling and running around. He seems to love crazee bunny, as I'm sure crazee bunny loves him too! Plus he's so sooooft :)
I need to make many of those and put them up on Etsy. Only problem, I'm running out of this amazing fleece that I use to make paws, ears, butts with...

New curtains in the master bedroom

After approximately 8hrs of intense work, finally, here are our new curtains, made from scratch, with my little hands. Some what rewarding, although it clearly wasn't what I enjoyed doing the most!!! We still need to find some hooks to hold the fabric back, but we're ready to "move in" now!

The prettiest ghost in Austin

I made this poncho/ghost outfit for Gabe for Halloween, out of a yard and a half of fabric and a little felt, and little ribbon, a lot of stitching :) You can't tell but there's also a spiderweb on his left shoulder. Just the cutest thing (my baby :))

New pillows for our TV room sofa


I made those pillows with the amazing fabrics I found at the quilt store on W.Anderson Lane. That store just makes me dizzy. I love the different patterns all mixes together, it turned out great.

Chococat pillow for Gabe's bedroom

Here's a cross stitched pillow for Gabe, he loves his Chococat plush (who wouldn't?!). I looked for a pattern and found this one on line: http://www.geocities.com/lullaby_lambie/
I replicated it so that I would have the classic black, a turquoise (own personal fave) and an orange chococat. Looks very pretty and cozy and it's in Gabe's bed now. Highly populated bed :)

I just finished my first ring. Made with Fimo polymer clay and mounted on a silver sterling deep-welled ring from Amate. I added 3 little Swarovski crystals on top. And, voila!! One more pretty ring for my collection!

Safari beads

This is a little wall hanging that I made for Gabe's room with Fimo clay. I made the animals with cookie cutouts and rolled faux wood logs and beads. Looks very pretty and bright and colorful, and amuses Gabe a lot. That's the whole point. To keep him entertained :)
