More sewing

I made another Ereader cover my cousin. We did some brain storming and came up with the idea of Totoro!!! From the Japanese animation "my neighbor Totoro". We're both fans. So I got to work.

Totoro




And my Ereader version.



Some challenging areas were the tummy area with the small cut outs and I had to sew them on by hand. It was a little too small for my sewing machine.

All-in-all, I was pretty pleased with the turn out. Hope my cuz still likes it.

Crafty Stuff

I've been hard at work lately working on some e-reader covers. It seems like a hot item lately. I've mostly been working on Kobo touch covers. And I have to admit, it's pretty cool. It's much smaller and lighter than my kindle. And I have to say, I'm tempted but can't be justified in getting yet another e-reader. Ah, technology. It's a love-hate relationship I have with you. Here are some my creations.

Red hot sleeve with a flower sewn on.



Owl for my friend C. Turned out better than I had expected.





Backside of the owl




And for my Dane friend, A, who is living in the DK but is a true Canadian at heart - a Canadian Flag! Again, this worked out better than I had expected.




Inside lined with the super soft minky fabric to protect the screen.




You know A, if I was really thinking I should have put a Danish flag on the other side of the cover.

It's been a while...

It's been a very long while. Thought I should post something. Life has been keeping me busy. But I have been able to do some more crafts and sewing and such. I will be posting some of my new creations soon.
