{Day 57: Rebecca} Things I have made
What have I learnt from this list? That I have some truly dodgy photos of things I've made...
1. A sewing kit for my friend Amy - made from the frame of a old ring binder so it could sit nicely on a shelf.
2. Patchwork star - my first patchwork anything.
3. Penguin
4. ...it's a donut. I don't really know why
5. Octopus Family. That's Mr and Mrs. Octopus guarding the books.
6. Skull bag for Bethany. First time following a sewing pattern. My goodness she used this thing till it fell to bits.
7. Button bracelet - cause I like buttons
8. Rocket ship - result of a craft afternoon with Hannah. I built it, she coloured it.
9. Various earrings from when I discovered polymer clay
10. Button bag for mum - she thought her bag was boring.
11. Hannah's Tigerlily costume for Book Week.
12. Polymer critters
13. First patchwork blanket - I totally took up patchwork just so I had an excuse to play with pretty fabrics.
14. First Socks! Also, first self-striping yarn
15. Gift for Amy
16. Charm bracelet - photo taken by the very fancy method of sticking it under the scanner (oh Becca...). I never wore it a lot because it was too heavy!
17. Lightbulb for Vicky... there was a reason for it at the time, but I cannot for the life of me remember it...
18. The rainbow blanket - aka the lap blanket that never stopped. It was truly supposed to be just a small thing for me to sit under... but then it grew to the point where it covers my mother's queen sized bed. Quite possibly my favourite crafted thing ever as it's so squishy.
19. Biggest patchworking project to date: a single bed blanket made for Amy's birthday. I loved it so much and it was so hard to actually hand it over.
20. Sweetpea Socks - for (and modelled by) Bethany
21. Baby blanket for a lady I worked with for a while at Chifley College
22. Noah's submarine cross stitch - Loved this one so much.
23. Arm warmers for Josh (modelled by Bethany)
24. Freshwater pearl necklace
25. Hydrangea Lace Scarf - first attempt at lace, trying to work my way up to that shawl I have not done yet.
26. Polymer clay spotty bracelet
27. Bella (from Twilight) Doll for Bethany for Christmas - I am soooo proud of this doll. You should click through to see the other photos, she even has little underwear.
28. Cupcake for bookclub
29. Pink beads
30. Twilight bracelet for Bethany
31. Jar of journal prompts for Bethany
32. Peekaboo mittens
33. Knitting needle roll
34. Learn How To Cube - I'm sorry, but this is awesome (again, click through). Each side has something different like buttons or a zipper or buckle. Made for Bethany to use at work.
35. Dinosaur fossils - again made for Bethany to use at work (that's it, she's not having any thing else)
36. Bouquet of paper flowers for Emily after her school play
37. Squares for wraps with love
38. Embroidered tree for Brett's mother for letting me stay with them
39. A book of poetry I wrote and scrapbooked for Bethany's birthday
40. Nintendo DS case for Renae
41. School scarf for Hannah
42. Totebag big enough to carry x-rays
43. "Fairy necklace"
44. Baby blanket for Beth at work
45. Name tags for when we read "The Other Boleyn Girl" (Phillipa Gregory) for bookclub
46. Hair clip holder
46. Alice in Wonderland charm bracelet for Emily - another one that was hard to hand over (favourite part is the little "drink me" in the bottle)
47. Berry Hill Fingerless Gloves - birthday gift for Bec
48. A birthday card I particularly liked
49. Mug and French Press Jacket - for Renae
50. BSG Medallions/Pendants - It annoys me to no end that I got neither a completed shot of this, NOR made one for myself. They were so fiddly and the final product is so much neater that you can see here. Perhaps I shall make myself another one. (for Lisa and Courtney)
51. Jean Bag - for Bethany
52. Stripey socks
53. Stargate jacket
54. Mini Christmas Stocking Ornaments - for Denise
55. Granny squares for BotM project
56. Ross cross stitch for mum
