Last week I went into the city for an appointment, and of course I couldn't pass up the chance to visit the largest fabric store there! It was hard, but I actually managed to leave the store without the usual huge bag full of assorted fabrics! I only bought a few supplies, i.e. boring zippers, which doesn't count, right? ☺
Back home I have used up a fair amount of my fabric stash for gifts and such, plus I made some pencil cases with appliquéd motifs (great way to use up scraps), one of which is my cupcake pencil case you see here:
I will be making a few of these with other motifs. All my motifs are drawn freehand on heat-and-bond paper, which I then proceed to cut out and iron onto the the main fabric. I don't use a template, so even if I repeated a motif, they wouldn't look exactly alike.
Happy Tuesday!

I love the cupcake pencil case. It is so cute! Great job!
ReplyDeleteLove it Duni! I'm the same way with scrapbooking supplies...like I need more, LOL! This lil cupcake pencil case is great! You are so talented!
ReplyDeleteVery cute case! :) I think I've gotten very good this year about not getting WAY too much stuff that I don't need at the craft store. But it's hard!
ReplyDeleteBeing a fabric junkie is ok in my book. Mmmm that cupcake looks delish :)
ReplyDeleteI see your DaWanda Shop is up and showing off your wares!
Thanks for your very kind words, once again, and for sharing your personal story. I needed that so very much.
So cute, Duni!! Since I can't have cupcakes, and could atleast put my pencils in a case that boasts a cupcake, right? That's calorie-free! :)

I am doing the same thing--making zippered bags and plushies. I cannot think of a better way to use up this stash and the scraps. Then, I will be bold or bad, and buy more fabric! Do you think we have a problem?

That is so cute! I can't draw very well so I use a template. But i'm loving your cupcake!
ReplyDeleteThat is a very cute cupcake. Now if it were an apple I would eat it. I love apples...it is the way of the goat.
ReplyDeleteI*m loving the pencil pouch! I*m starting to get the same way with fabric.
ReplyDeleteDuni, that is a wonderful pencil pouch! How could that not put a smile on someone's face everytime they used it?
ReplyDeleteThat purse is making me love cupcakes but I really love your cute and feisty cat below!
ReplyDeleteThe cupcake is so cute! Excellent job!
ReplyDeleteAs for staying away from buying fabric, that's a very difficult thing to do when we have a fabric addiction! We need that 12 step program!
Eeeekkk!! I'm such a loser. :( I just now saw the award you gave me...and I'm so humbled! To be given an award by someone I treasure and admire so much...thank you, sweet pea!! (I'm blushing)
ReplyDeleteI wanted to let you know I'm here to give YOU an award...because you, after all, ARE the Queen of ALLL Things! Please stop by and pick it up when you'd like. I've been so busy I don't know if I'm coming or going - but it should be better tomorrow. (Knock on my head.) lol
Thank you again - you made my day!!
