For the kiddies:

I love the work that was put into this. How can you not feel envious for the little tot that runs his hands over that embroidery. Although I have a tiny fear that most growing children have enough strength in their appendages to destroy cloth. But I digress.
Here is some inspiration from an epic artist I adore her attention to detail:

A new horizon of embroidery projects:
Anyhow I just saw this one thanks to Craftzine, whoever made it is a genius. My mom would love this cake, me not so much.

I’m always the last one to know about these things…I’m no longer a movie nerd who keeps up to date with all the movie news but here goes, the best trailers I’ve seen all day:
Although this one fulfills my morbid fascination:
My birthdays usually come and go with very little much to say other than I got some sleep. I truly doubt that this year will be any different because at the end of the day…I want more sleep.
I did however find something that I want more than sleep. I won’t cry if I don’t get it but I will always want this bag

I’ve been working on creating a plushie/teddy bear. My intent was to create the bear for a friend but since its still in its infancy I might decide to hold onto since it would be my first actual plush creation.
Anyhow the little beast is all white…about 1ft to 2ft long (or tall). It wouldn’t really be functional for a child…well I just feel like most parents would stray away from a white toy because of the desire to keep it clean. Besides I worry about how this bear would fare in a washer/dryer.
I finally decided to create hand embroidered facial features (child safety comes first) but it is slow going and I think the face looks odd. I will post pictures in a day or two. I love creating embroidery so I think I will fashion more eyes (keep on practicing) but I just came across a great bear/bee, from Lovesandasandwhich’s photostream on Flicker, that has the cutest eyes I’ve seen today!

I am thinking of trying to emulate that with embroidery floss instead of felt!
There is always more to find and discover about the amazing creative people out there in this world:
