So, for the rest of this year I am going to *try* to set aside 1 day a week to sew. I think it will be better for me to do something other than uni work, even though its art and I do love it too, some times it is just too much!
So to kick off my new resolve -I bought some books to spark my interest. I will be making something from these books over the next little while.
Storybook Toys has some gorgeous dolls and puppets that I would love to make. I am especially enamoured with the hand embroidered faces, just gorgeous, really looking forward to it!
We Make Dolls has some quirky and fun little toys and is a combination of lots of different doll makers with different styles so I'm very very much looking forward to getting stuck into this book and making, well everything in there! The only thing I can see thats a little disappointing is that some of them say "make your own template" and don't provide the pattern piece..for the head and the ears! Thats really actually quite shitty! Especially since its the dog on the cover.
Really, I'll be back with some sewing, promise! ;)
