A few finished projects

Sorry it's been a few days, I've had several things going on from having a very sore back to trying to finish a few things I started so I could get them out of the way.  I'm still not ready to make any tutorials yet, but when I'm ready I will be sure to post them.  I've been working on pin cushions and stuffed toys mostly among a few other things that I still haven't finished yet. 

Some of the things I've made are for a few recent swaps I'm in, but I can't give out any details until they've been mailed to my swap parnters. 

Most of the things I've made recently are out of felt.  I love felt it's so soft and so much fun to work with.  There are so many things you can do with it.  For alot of projects I use regular craft store felt because it's cheap and it holds up really well.  There are a few things I wouldn't use craft felt for because it's doesn't hold up as well after many washes but for the most part it gets the job done.

The pin cushions I made are out of scrap fabric that was just taking up space in my closet, so now I don't have the pieces of fabric laying around but I have more than enough pin cushions (ha).  Not sure if it did me any good to make the pin cushions to conserve space, but it was a good idea at the time.  And if I do say so myself they are really cute!!!  Once I started making them I just couldn't stop myself until there were 7.

I suppose I will call it quits for now, but I may be back to post some tutorials I find from some of the many great blogs out there.  Enjoy your day and happy crafting to everyone!!
