Projects of old long time ago...

Cupcake Steve:
I made this back in early February for my niece Ada, she was turning 1 and I wanted to do something special for her. I used the "Three Faces of Steve" pattern from the Denyse Schmidt, 30 colorful quilt and patchwork projects book. I was so excited when I found this cute cupcake fabric... I ran home and whipped up this little guy almost faster than you can make actual cupcakes!

Because I made this for a one year old, I decided to stay away from the button eyes... I used felt (I think it's called, or flannel?... you get it at craft stores in 8x10 sheets... anyway, it worked really well) and I was really pleased with how the face turned out...

I added cupcake paws

I branded him with a cupcake patch on the bum... (Look I even remembered the tail! Inside joke: I forgot to put a tail on Green Steve, for my Bro. who later said, "I like that you forgot the tail, it reminds me of you..." not sure really want that means... but I thought it was cute. )

Cupcake Steve has a spunky personality that just makes everyone want to hang out with him! Here's Caitlin enjoying a little Steve time...

Will shared his cheese crackers at snack time...

And here's the Birthday Girl, Ada cruzen' with Steve in her little car!

Bag for Heather:

My Cuz Heather sent me this fabric and I made her this bag. Many of you have asked what patter I've used....Amy Butler's The Swing Bag... it's a good bag for beginners. I am IN LOVE with the fabric combo she picked out... Nice!

Bag for Anna:

My sisters friend Anna stalks me... haha, no, no I'm just kidding. She just knows a good blog when she sees one (and I'm flattered) Anyway, She also sent me this fabric in the mail (all the way from PA!) and I really enjoyed making this one too! Cute, Cute, Cute colors together.
