TGIF

So happy today is friday! Looking forward to just relaxing and hanging around the house! I'll be working on my newsletter so if you haven't joined my email list please do, so you don't miss it! To temp you even more, This Card  is going to be given away to someone on my list this week!

For a while i've been wanting to share with you a project I did for Sizzix. I actually sewed something! I made this apron with no pattern, just with lots of help from my friend Debi who is an awesome seamstress! But you don't have to make an apron you can just add some die-cuts to an apron you already have! Any Mom would love this for Mothers Day!

How to: Apply fusible web to felt with iron. Die-cut Bird w/Branch from several colors of felt. Layer and arrange on apron and iron in place. I also stuffed a little batting under the bird to make him chubby! Embellish flower centers by handsewing buttons in place.

This would only take about a half and hour if you weren't making the apron. That my friends took me all day, but I leared some new sewing techniques and I didn't want to throw the machine out the window so it was a total success!

Here's a close up... You can get the die Here ...

Thanks so much for all your comments and blog ideas. I liked them all and next week i'll dedicate a post to each idea. Tonight was Niguel's night to pick a card give away winner and Leslie you are the lucky winner tonight, so send me your address and i'll send it off to you!

Love the apron and all the embelleshments! Yes, I actually own one (it's very cute) and have bought them as gifts too- so you've just inspired me to make one. I'm not too bad with a sewing machine, so we'll see. If it's presentable, I will send you a pic.
