It's Friday.. Friends With Flair.. and my last day of Growing In Unity!!
I have loved sharing all the new things that I do with Unity/ Ippity Stamps this week and can't wait to show you more as I do it again the end of December!!
Now if you want to do
Growing in Unity it is for everyone to participate in.. it is a fun filled week of featuring creations by yourself showing off your Unity and
Ippity Stamps!! you can sign up
here!!
Today I am so excited to show you something I have been working on for the past two weeks. Inspired by my Growing in Unity stamp set.. and Donna Downey!!
My Mom is a sewer and does it all by just taking measurements and cutting.. no patterned needed. She made my wedding dress,all my bridesmaid dresses and 5 other dresses for my wedding 23 years ago.
I decided to be just like MOM.. (my hero) and step up my game .
So I made this apron ( got to start small) with no pattern, no instructions.. just my imagination and the scissors leading the way. I was thrilled that all the years looking at my Mom cut her own patterns ideas paid off!!
So here it is , my first Apron project
( I will be making these for Christmas gifts this year)
Hope you like it.. and get inspired to use your Unity/Ippity stamps in a different way!
See the flourished swirls well that is just one swirl you get in this Growing in Unity stamp set!!
The great thing is Angela has everything 40% off on the website this weekend so you will have to go check it out!!
I added the flowers.. the red and small chocolate felt ones I made using the 3D flower die from
Sizzix. the big Brown mesh is by lily bee designs.
( thanks Sarah I am finally using it) .
It wasn't bad and only took me two days to stitch everything.. about an hour a night watching
tv with the kids...
I am making some more for Christmas presents and one for my daughter Sydney for her Birthday in December. .. she wants to be matching with Mommy.. I think we will look smashing wearing it while making our Christmas treats this year.
Tell me what you think? I just love the idea that you can make whatever your heart desires with these Unity/
Ippity Stamps. It is really a designers dream.. to have
minimal tools handy and that it can be multi
functional .. I guess that is why I love Unity so much!!
