Denim Revisited


My foot is now out of the Aircast (2nd day) but it's really slowing me down, I'm shuffling around like Ozzy Osbourne on Tranquilizers and it's been wearing me out, so the craft time formerly known as Noahs nap has reverted to Mama nap time too. I'm trying to get the hubby to video me making one of the Denim roses as I keep burning myself taking progress how to shots for the tutorial, yep sounds way funnier than irl :)

Until that's sorted, here's a project I made from a Michelemademe tutorial for my little fella, he absolutely loves it and it's made entirely from repurposed material, even the stuffing comes from 4 deflated pillows that had been languishing in my basement waiting for a makeover. It's not quite as elaborately embroidered as the original by Michele but I topstitched each seam instead and added a little bit of meagre embroidery to the top. I love how it turned out and Noah my little fella was dead chuffed with it too.

If you have a couple of Denim outfits that have out stayed their welcome in your closet, check out the Tutorial and stitch yourself some patchwork loveliness.
