I’m such a princess!

So, this weekend was interesting. I was SO excited to finish piecing my pig, work on my student piece for Susan Sorrel and generally geek out in the fiber/beading/embroidery world and I froze. Ugh.

I totally do NOT understand Sulky, Stabelizer, anything that washes out, anything that should transfer (do I need to go on?). So, I was all excited to do Susan’s class project and FROZE! Ugh!

I was going to piece my pig and the light was wrong (this is where the princess kicks in?) and I didn’t want to do it.

So, I walked down this evening and pulled out a piece of fabric, a wonderful little giraffe I bought at the last craft show and put together this:

The picture was taken with my phone, so it’s a bit washed out, but I LOVE it! I’m going to edge the giraffe and do – well who knows what with it? But it’s so me and so totally cool!

***and now that it’s up on my blog I realize it totally matches my blog! Cool eh?

Oh! So, I posted that and forgot to post this adorable project! My son printed out the material for this on Nick (and of course I can’t find the directions anywhere now):
Isn’t it cute? (oh, this is also an opportunity for the Grandparents to see his new haircut! It can be spikey! which he loves!)
