Here's another one for adventure In the Little Things To Sew book! I used only the fabric I have on hand...and that is not in the frozen shed. ;) All are fabulous scraps that I have saved for this project. Sadly the "main" house fabrics is buried some where out in the frozen shed I was telling you about. OS any way, here is what I have made so far!
I had the most fun adding things to the houses back side. Most are fabric that I appliqued on but the flower trellis was done on the sewing machine then I added some hand stitched flowers. This one is Sweet pea's favorite house.
I also added some details to the sides. The white house that looks, well rather wonky is rather wonky. The white in linen and was not fun to sew for this project at all. I have used the linen for lining clothes with no problem but this project it is just way to thin. I will not use it again for this.ever.
Here is Sweet pea's pet store. She helped with this one by "designing" it. It was hard trying to sew it together as she was trying to play with it at the same time. : )
I was going to make as least two more houses but time has caught up with me and our wee little Prince C has learned a new trick that he rather enjoys....taking all his clothes off. Yep the little bugger is at that stage, soooo I really need to get to some more Tea Party paly suits for him. They are the only thing he can not take off. I plan on one more fox one and maybe a monkey one for fun.
#17 done!
Happy Sewing!

These are cute! You must be very near finishing off all the projects in the book.
ReplyDeleteFunny about Caspian. Hopefully he doesn't dis-robe in front of visitors!
Thank you Deb, I have four more projects to go. I was hoping to get to the bias apron this week, one for Caspian and one for Sarah but with really needing the overall's I have to see. And so far he has not dis-robe in front of anyone other than us.....I be sure and not give him the idea. ; )
Deleteadorable! I just love the pet shop and your brick fabric.
ReplyDeleteI thought the brick fabric was perfect for these, I plan on getting more brick fabric in the white and some more of the wood fabric too.
DeleteYou could fix the nudey kid problem by turning the heating off! Surely that would stop him disrobing. My two are constantly stripping off but it is the height of summer here!
ReplyDeleteLove the Pet Store. I'm kind of planning to do my local shopping strip when I make these, but I do get a lot more distracted than you and other things keep getting in the way. You, my friend, are on fire!
Great idea Shelley, hehehe, that would fix him quick! I do want to make a few more as they are a big hit with all five kids. Caspian loves to play kick the house with them, I guess they are as good as any old ball. ; )
