New Ideas

I recently needed to make a few gifts for family and friends and in a creative frenzy, I invented le lapin bleu! Bleu, as he's known by for short, is a little one-dimensional but very cute. So far I have him "in love" and "flying a kite"

These photos are gifts for others but I hope to have similar items in my Etsy shop soon. NOTE: I hand dyed the shirts and hand dyed the fabrics used in the applique, all but the kite which is a Japanese fabric that I received from my good-ness order (see Sept 20 blog entry below for good-ness shop link).

And yet more detail. I had to brush up on my embroidery skills for this one

Did I mention it was close to midnight when I finally made myself stop last night? Thus the "romantic" lighting. Here is le lapin bleu flying a kite.
