Results for WoW #14 - Details for #15..


Is a butterfly a bug?
Well caterpillars are..
I made Isabelle this dress inspired by Eric Carle's
"The Very Hungry Caterpillar".
Isn't it a genius idea to make clothes inspired by books??
Well, I'm not the genius behind it!
No Big Dill asked some fabulous bloggers to do just this thing
- create clothes inspired by children's books.
No.. I wasn't one of the bloggers chosen -
I'm a still a little fish in a HUGE pond.
BUT can I ever ignore a call for creativity
even when I'm not invited - heck no!

So I joined the party and this is also my entry for this week's WoW.
As I was searching for fabric, it occurred to me
that batiks have a very similar appearance.
When I saw the butterfly batik - I was in heaven!

Isabelle of course is crazy about this dress.
My lil' Punky Brewster loves BRIGHT colors, green, purple,
and mariposas.

What did you make for WoW?
Kathleen was inspired by butterflies too! You know great minds..

My kiddos would go nuts over a dimensional butterfly on their baskets.
The buttons add a really fun textile touch to it too!
I will have to do that for sure next year.
Thank you so much Kathleen!

I hope ya'll were able to find some fun with 7 deadly sins.
Thanks to Urban Stitches, I was able to
hand embroider this beauty.
After stitching the picture all in black,
I then went back and "colored" in with fabric markers.
I had seen this technique done by Mary Engelbreit,
and I have been wanting to do it for months.
So much fun - a grown up's coloring book!

My sin could be interpreted in a number of ways.. wrath, envy, lust
It's all about the original temptation.

Love the thought and love the art.
This kind of nails who I am too..
I've always loved the country & the city.
Too, too cute!

The challenge this week is
to do a valentine and do not use pink or red!
I can't wait to see what you come up with.
