Brother Embroidery Machine patterns

Fluttershy and Shaman logo

A friend needed a dice bag and wanted some graphics/embroidery on it. I designed the fluttershy and Shaman logo for the bag. Both sewed out really well, and I've decided to share them with everyone.

I will upload the pes files to a server later. Too tired now. Keep falling asleep. LOL

Digitizing 3D papercraft

For the last few years, I've been heavily involved in 3D papercraft. I have also for many years been doing sewing and other crafts. Now I've decided to combined both 3D papercraft and sewing into one... I'm going to be digitizing some 3D free papercraft into 3D freestanding machine lace embroidery.

The first step to follow

Giggle and Hoot Embroidered face and soft pillow pattern.

Madly trying to make up a "Hoot" doll from Giggle and Hoot for my great nieces first birthday. First version was a frightening failure...

So, after a bit of searching on line, I decided to make a flat version. a cushion with embroidered features.

I'm very pleased with it so far..

If you would like a pes version of this embroidery pattern, contact me on mandythepcgirl @ gmail.com and request the hoot.pes file. :)

Here's a pic of what it looks like without all the appliqué. :)

Home brewed embroidery files.

I'm going to be posting some home brewed embroidery files. They won't be tested,  so feedback is necessary. 

You will also need to email me for a password to open the file. This is entirely just so I can see how many download the file. Im not even sure if this blog is being read. Lol

Easter!

Hi all! Well, it's been a while, but here is a little thing I made the other day.  I call him the "Josh Bunny". It's for my 2 year old nephew Joshua.  

I'm currently in the middle of making 6 costumes for dancers, but here is a sneak preview of the costume...

It's based on a retro 1950 - 1960 boy leg swimming costume. The skirt is 3 "petals" gathered and worn as a belt. Now picture it all in green!
The pattern is actually 3 patterns in one. I got a little creative, but like what I came up with. :D
More later.

My newest dress creation

Hi all,

well, I've finally finished that dress I made for a friend. :) I liked the way it looked when finished, and it actually was  slimming. 

Hand Puppets

Well, it's been while, but when you are busy time just flies. :/ My world is a little turned around at the moment. I quit my job of 8 years 2 weeks ago and haven't felt this good in ages. :) I'm sewing lots, and generally feeling less stressful. I've been applying for work, but it's exhausting - and due to my level of experience, it's not an instant thing when finding out how things have gone. *sigh* Anyway, the video below is a Youtube video that I uploaded. :) They are 2 soft scultpure puppets that I made in 3 days for a show last night. I think it went down well. I'm very happy with the puppets and now have a burning desire to make more! Go watch the video, and watch this space for more videos.. Now that I've found my video camera again! LOL

Sewing / dressmaking sizing charts from the 60's

For those of us that sew as well as glue, here is a sizing chart from the 1960's. You can download it from xxxxxx 

EDITED.....

Due to possibly getting caught in the copyright infringement roundabout, I've done some research and discovered that Simpitiy actually has an updated sizing chart downloadable straight from their web site, free of charge!  Check it out here
