Sidebar: Sewing

While I'm putting the finishing touches on a few more knitted goods and waiting for a tear-less, teething model, I've decided to go a little off-topic.  So, I sew... a little.  I may eventully get ambitious and decide to add some sewn-on details to my knitted items.  Who knows, maybe I'll just use my skills to sew a lining in a cabled purse or something. Anyways, after dealing with two broken sewing machines this last week, I've finished six throw pillows, a roman shade, and have made almost all of the linens in my daughter's nursery (including the curtains).  After making all of the pillows, I think that zippers can just go kick rocks.  All in all, everything turned out, but I think I'll stick to my knitting!

Putting it out there!

Okay, it's official--items are for sale! I've listed a handful of items I have completed, and there's even more on the way! These items are featured on the website, Thread Bears®, and available for purchase on Etsy. Click on the pictures or captions if you wish to view the listings:

Serendip-minty Headband

This adjustable headband is so light and airy that it can be worn

year-round.  The pale mint hue is the perfect compliment for any

little outfit.

 

 

Rippled Tide Collar

This collar makes a lovely alternative to a drool bib!

When it's not being used to catch drool for younger ones, it makes a lovely

finishing touch for a toddler's outfit! Fits most children 6 months- 5 years.

 

I also have a couple of simple, spring-friendly cowls that have just-right luxurious touches

So Much Honey Cowl

 

Thawing Pond Cowl

 

Gilded Goldenrod Cowl

 

 

And I'm hoping there is someone out there who is more

with-it when it comes to Christmas Shopping than I am!

This very large stocking will match any Christmas decor,

and still look great kept out year-round!
