Peek a boo

Here is a work in progress...cutie hooties for the show this week end. I always like to see others
WIP so thought I'd share these cuties with you. Did you know a group of owls are called a "stare of owls"? Now you know! Anyone else hearing that Geico commercial song in their head right now?

Puppy Pop Art Project

It's done! Yippee! The Puppy Pop Art piece is complete, I would like to do this again. That isn't something I say every time I finish a project. In hindsight I will make a few changes next time.
I knew I wanted to include Bailey's name into the piece but didn't leave enough room once said and done. However if there's a will there's a way and I think it works. I have included the Bailey inspiration picture for you to compare as well. The last post I included a link for instruction for those interested.

The bird pillow is the same birdie applique I used on my toaster cover. I just added a bit more of a branch. The birdie is black ultra suede fused on Amy Butler fabric. Thanks again Leah of Sew Spoiled for the free applique. I'm sure I will use this sweetie for awhile. Get your free applique here.

Some new hooties have hatched, now I want a basket or a tree or something for them to hang out. They look kind of sleepy don't you think? Note the awesome tree behind them from my peep Jodi Reeves.

Head on over to The Creative Jar and post a comment to win something from Jodi.

I'm loving all the freebies!

Puppy Pop Art

I have been busy with some catch up work before I head down to FLA to visit two of my girls and two of the grand kids. You know I must bring something for each of them, so I am working on some super cute things. I'll be there for a week to babysit while they are out for spring break.

Here is something for my youngest daughter, it's a picture of her beloved Boston Terrier Bailey Boo. Bailey is even more spoiled than my dogs, of course Bailey is the only canine in the house (I have three).
I was inspired by Lori Marie of Pretty Little Things when she was on Martha Stewart. You may find the directions on the left sidebar of her site. I just love everything she does. I wonder if I could move into her "little house"?

I'm ready to do some embroidery touches before it is stapled to the frame but was so excited I had to share. So far I'm pleased and already have ideas to do my own four legged friends in Pop Art.
I will post the final project once complete.
