Player 2 Patterns: Bean Bag Frog with Safety Eyes

This is the original Player 2 Patterns sewing pattern - the Bean Bag Frog.  Here he is with safety eyes, so a great toy for kids.  He's fun to bring with you anywhere and to toss around.

Player 2 Patterns: Make-Up Case with Bow in Lightweight Denim

This is the Player 2 Patterns Make-Up Case with Small Bow pattern that is available for sale through my Etsy Shop.

This time, I made the case from a lightweight denim fabric that I had on hand in my basket of scraps.  The trim was also left over from a previous project.

I'm going to use this make-up case to carry a few small items in my purse for day-to-day use.

Very Easy Vogue 9156: Houndstooth Jacket

I made this jacket a while ago, and finally got around to taking some photos. The broach I'm wearing on the lapel was purchased to go on the first gown I ever made.

Fall is my favorite time of year because of all of the awesome wool fabrics.  Who doesn't love houndstooth??

Simplicity 8113: The Legend of Zelda

Here it is!  My 2018 Halloween costume.  Another one of my favorite Nintendo characters - Princess Zelda.


This was a lot of fun to make and I made a lot of progress on it during my vacation from work.  


Wondering if there are any rupees inside...

And here's my pumpkin.

Happy Halloween!
