Stashbusting…

It has been raining all day today, so I figured what better way to spend a rainy day that to do a bunch of sewing and use up some of my stash in the process. It wasn’t what I had planned on doing today, I had originally wanted to get outside and take pictures. Still it ended up being a productive and fairly fun day. (Although you will have to excuse the pictures, since there wasn’t much good light all day…)

A grocery shopping tote bag…

This is the second grocery shopping tote that I have made (both were out of the same thrifted curtains and cotton for the inside). I actually have a third one started, but didn’t finish it today. (I may put the 3rd one in my etsy shop, not sure yet though.)

A pincushion…

Can you believe that I have never used a pincushion?! I had one of those tomato ones, but hated it so I threw it away and just went without. I am loving this one though and might have to make a couple more!

A stuffed owl!

Yep, I tried making a stuffed owl like I had wanted to:) It was actually a first for me in a few ways…. my first time making a stuffed toy and my first time doing an appliqu

If you haven’t used a pincushion, where on earth do you keep the pins?!?! LOL
