This Week’s Fun

I was the only Sharon I knew growing up, and it was never easy to find a toothbrush, or barrettes, or birthday card with my name on it. So when Barbara ordered a finger puppet kit for her neice, and mentioned personalizing this bag would mean a lot to Mylena, it was my seven-year old self that said yes.

My first thought was to embroider her name on it, but I love this font (ziggy zoe) and my embroidery stitches are never quite what I want them to be, so I settled for printing on fabric and sewing it on. I'm pleased with the result, and hope she is, too.

These finger puppet kits are such fun to put together–perhaps another glimpse of my seven-year old self, who loves anything to do with glitter and glue?

Happy sewing, and happy summer!

Name Banner

Visiting my family here in RI so I don't have anything new to show you. But I just came across this picture of Gracie's banner I made a few months ago. I don't personally know Gracie, but a farmers market customer ordered this banner for her. It was a fun challenge, and I was pleased with the result (as was Gracie, thankfully!). I'm happy to make one up for a dear little one in your life. I charge based on how many letters the name is and how complex your design. Email me, and we can figure out something fun! I'll be back home and to my machine in a couple of days!
