Nephew Anders

I was in jutland to visit Christian family and his sister just had this little guy Anders. Absolutly inlove whit this little thing i start making things for him like this little sweater and hood, what i didnt take into considderration was that he grows fast...and i meen VERY fast , so the picture you see here is the only time he ever had it on.

crafted box for my crochet hooks

I got this idea from picasa i saw a tutorial where a woman had used a feta cheese plastic container with a lid. I tried to find the tutorial but its gone. I used a icecream container because i wanted it to be used for my crochet hooks.

I used two lids, one as the top lid and one cut out to form the bottom inside.

I made rings with a marker on the bottom off the "can" to find out how to crochet it.

like this and used it as a template...did the same for the inde of the top lid

 

i didnt crochet inside exept for the top, i covered the inside with some fabric and i glued som fabric on the ekstra lic that i cut out to fit the bottom. 

 

this is how it looks inside

 

 

 

on the outside top i put some stuffing under the fabric to use for needles and such. and the i decorated it abit :)

Tiny Teddy
I was browsing through the Good Housekeeping site and came across a pattern for a tiny 19 cm high teddy. V. cute and really easy.

1. Enlarge the below pattern by 400% on a photocopier.

2. Cut out two teddy-shapes from fabric. Pin and stitch together around stitching line, leaving a gap in side of one leg for turning through. Work a second row of stitching so they don't fall apart too quickly.

3. Trim the seam allowances to 3mm and cut out a triangle up to the stitching at all the corners. Turn right side out. Fill with polyester toy stuffing and sew up the gap in the leg. Using black thread, work a few straight stitches for eyes and nose where marked. Tie a narrow ribbon around its neck and stitch securely in place.

Wonder what teddy would look like in Thai silk or in Shanghai Tang-style fabric.

The Unseen University

Christian and i thought we would make a landscape like D&D or warhammer but im no good at those tiny figurines i like papercraft better and i made these buildings named the unseen university. Still missing a few buildings.

I printed them out from a pdf file where its all in A4 format.
the file is 46 Mb so very large but its really cool
Here it is The Unseen University
