Arts and Crafts

I have to apologize for being a day late today. I just completely forgot it was Thursday yesterday It was quite a buzy day for me with a Summer party at Tristan’s playschool and then the 2nd Eurovision semifinal. But anyways I have 3 Patterns to share with you today.
I have only tested one of it so if you find any errors please contact me so I can fix it (that goes with any patterns on my site). You may also notice that the pattern pieces are a little different than my normal style. That is because I’ve finally got EQ7. I’ve been wanting to get it for over a year now. and I can tell you it may be expensive but it has been getting lot of use the week that I’ve had it, and It’s only going to be used more as I learn how all the features work

If you are a fan on fandom in stitches You have probably already seen these.

There was a request on FIS Requests page from a grandmother of a little 4yrs old boy who is going to have his second liver transplant surgery soon. And she wanted to make him a blues clues quilt because he loves blues clues. So Jennifer, Michelle and myself have been hard at work this week making patterns for the quilt.
these are my three patterns and you can find them over on the cartoons/comics page

Periwinkle

salt/pepper

shovel and pail

I hope you’ll enjoy sewing these as much as I enjoyed creating them.
Happy Sewing

Hello and Happy summer.
Today (at least on the Icelandic calendar) is the first day of summer *does a happy dance* It’s actually not warm at all but the grass is starting to go green and the sun is up from 5 in the morning and until after 11 at night. compared to the shortest day of the year (December 21st) when the sun is up for 28 minutes this is the life

On to today’s pattern it is time for a new Hunger Games pattern

This month’s Hunger Games is District 2 like the rest it’s 10″ and can be found on the Sci-Fi and Fantasy page

Happy Crafting

So this week has been a little mad for me. Since last Friday when my blog hop post went up (you still have until tomorrow to comment on the blog hop post to be entered to win).
I spent Easter weekend at the farm. Mostly I was rereading the Hunger Games series and doing some embroidery on my TABABOM which is now ready to be quilted . and didn’t get home until late on Monday.
Tuesday I had a dentist appointment at 9:00 and was pretty loopy for the rest of the day (I hate going to the dentist).
Yesterday (Wednesday) was my birthday and my mum took me fabric shopping, “you can have anything you want” I went a little crazy
Then today my gerbil passed away (at least he waited until after my birthday) and we went to the farm, mostly for a place to keep the cage which is actually a fish tank. But the weather was lovely and I spent the day in the sandbox with Tristan and the dogs (my sisters Papillion and my aunt’s Icelandic sheep dog)

Anyways I didn’t have time to test my new pattern that really doesn’t need testing since it’s super simple. It’s inspired by the Mythbusters. I really wanted to make a Mythbusters pattern but what really represents them? Well this is the first thing that sprang to mind

This would be a roll of Duckt Tape and it’s 5″

I’ll see you guys tomorrow with the 2 winners
Happy sewing

Looking over my Comic book patters I realized that there is a serious lack of Girl Power. I really feel I need to fix that. I find that there are very few female superheroes that have their own logo though. It’s all super girl and bat girl… that use their male counterparts logo. But there is one that is the original super girl.

Our first Female super hero

Wonder Woman is 5″ and is now joining the other heroes on the Comics/cartoons page

Just to let you guys know. I’m participating in sewhooked’s Paper Pieced pattern-a-day Garden party blog hop. It starts on April 1st so remember to check out Sewhooked on Sunday (and every day in April) for a free garden party themed Paper pieced pattern. My date is April 6th. So next weeks pattern will be up on Friday instead of the normal Thursday

Happy sewing and I’ll see you next week
