a move

after much thinking, i've decided to continue my craft posts in my original space RAINDROP CHART AND RAMPANT ONION. i will carry on posting stuff here but they will mainly be link-backs to RAINDROP. sorry for the change but much easier for me to stay posted to one place than keeping 2 blogs going really.

handmade stuffed fabric owl ornaments

Above is my first project. Looks easy peasy but since I haven't used a sewing machine for ages, I was really rusty. Looking at the results now, I am quite pleased with myself. Below is my Brother Innovis 400 Sewing Machine.
My hubby found this machine for me. Its a really crafty machine loaded with functions. Although a bit temperemental, once you get around its quirks, its a joy of a machine.I will get around to posting a tutorial of how to make this owl ornament yourself, so stay posted to this space, however if you are not so friendly with sewing, you can always get one of my owl ornaments from my etsy shop or my ebay, whichever is easier for you. Thanks so much for visiting!
