...handmade by moi out of zippers!
There was one of the facebook things going around where you had to promise to make up to 5 handmade gifts in 2011 for the people who commented on your post. Well it's Dec 9 and I am finished! lol... This one is yours Charlie!
p.s. did I mention how much I dislike sewing!!!
oh and the measurements in case you want to make it?
1 x 8 inch length of zipper
6 x 4 inch lengths
6 x 3 inch lengths
The centre is made from the 8 inch length. Sew a running stitch along the length of it near the edge of the fabric and gather so it curls up.
The petals are made similarly with a little gather in the middle and then sewing them in a petal shape.
Then sew all the petals and the centre together trying not to stab yourself too many times.
I recommend red zippers as it hides the blood better!
My first try at freehand Zendalas on tiles. Preping for a Zendala class coming up in May.
Now should I shade color or leave them I can't decide.
cherry wood from our forest, sliced, painted, freshly lacquered and drying... little pendants for the weekly market - good fun making them with good feedback! each one a one-of-a-kind, of course :)
Really hope my partner likes these fabrics. The text is from a spoonflower print of Alice in wonderland .... I love the I dont see the wine line!
