I'm finally back to writing on this blog after being busy for two months, I still sew some small items and mend a few clothes but haven't sewn new clothes.  Until two days before Valentine's arrived, I felt like I had to sew a new blouse to wear to dinner. The blouse had to be in the shade of pink, so I checked my stash and found 2 yards of lace fabric in fuchsia that I don't remember when I bought it.

Stuffed Elephant Toys And I Won A Giveaway

Hello everyone,
Look what I've made! Two very cute stuffed elephant toys for my DS :-) 
 
 
Pattern     : free elephant toy pattern from stitchcraftcreate.co.uk
Materials : I used two fabric scraps from stash - both of them are printed cotton, fusible interfacing for the ears, polyester stuffing, buttons for the eyes and threads.
The sewing process is very fast and enjoyable, I did two of them in two hours. The only tricky part is hand sewn the elephant body but the rest is so easy.
Here is a picture of my sewing in progress,
a. My fabrics after cutting
b. Sew  all the edges according to the instructions
c. Turn it inside out
d. Stuffed with polyester stuffing and ready for hand sewing the opening area, done!
