Yesterday's Sewing Creations

Yesterday was a busy day in the sewing room!
First, I made a cast sock for a little guy who has a broken foot.  
Unfortunately, that means no hockey for awhile,
 but he will be right there supporting his team
 (the Campbellford Colts, of course) in his cast,
 with a cast sock that I designed to look like a hockey sock.


With a double thickness of fleece on the foot for extra arena warmth!

Next, I made a Hello Kitty cushion from a picture I found of  this simple, strange little cat.
  Purr-fect Christmas gift for my son's new girl, who like most teenagers it seems, loves Hello Kitty!



Then, I was on to some glitzy, sparkly, very pink skirts for a little girls' dress up box.






In my experience with little girls, the more sparkles and glitter the better!

Sweater Repair

This sweater collar was coming apart at the seam along the shoulder.


A few stitches later, the collar is re-attached.


Slippers for Little Ballerinas

First, I made some tutus...


and realized that tutus would be so much more fun if they were worn with ballet slippers!
  So I headed into the sewing room to stitch some little ballerina slippers.  These slippers
 are made from polar fleece and bits and pieces of recycled clothing.











They are comfy, cozy and cute, too!
