Artsy project

I'm busy trying to move, but here is how Monsters nursery letters turned out.  They were supposed to be on foam squares.  But then I needed to stretch the fabric.  So I went to Michaels (and Hobby Lobby and Hancock Fabric, but Michaels was the only one that had these) to get stretcher bars (and quilters tacks).  They only had 2 on clearance.  I needed 16.  Did I mention they are on clearance?  So in the end, I had to use cheap embroidery hoops.

I fully intended to hang them on the wall, just to enjoy them for a few days.  But it seemed silly to put 4 new holes in my wall for three days.  So I put them on the desk like this.

And now they are packed along with most of the rest of my stuff.  But I have proof of their existence.

Night all!

Sneak Peak

The reason this blog is called 'Mollys' Misadventures is because long ago my husband and I decided I have a 'twin'.  She is the one who says what she is actually thinking.

So here you go

On Peach State Moms Blog, I've made Felt Puppets (all patterned and stitched by hand by the way) and Photo Blocks and have never gotten so much as a 'hey howdy hey'

My partner sews some ribbon to a clip and gets a 'Nice you crafty girl'  Yeah, Molly doesn't handle stuff like that very well. (PS I love you my partner.  Our readers...ok I guess I like them too. After all one of them could be READING THIS right now.  Gotta reign Molly in somewhere.)

So because I was undecided where my most recent awesome-ness would get the most attention ( apparently Molly needs words of affirmation), I'm back giving you some crafty love.  

Here is your sneak peak.  Amazing what you can do with some basic sewing know how (HA! Did I just say sewing and know-how in the same sentence?) and tinkering around

This is less of a sneak peak then a HEY! Look at this!

There is my little dude!

I'll be back with the finished project...hopefully soon.

In the meantime, if you'd like to hear more from Molly, I'm pretty sure she is stewing about some house/housing market related stuff right now.  Let me know, I'll turn her loose!
