close_encounter.jpgAug CC - Sketch - Close Encounterthis is my take on the great sketch. I handmade my flower by cutting out some pattern paper leaves, blanket stiching around them, cutting the inner colour around the top, inking and raising in 3d, and putting it all together with a brad in the middle. Hope that counts as homemade!!9 comments08/27/10 at 09:10ones heart: Awesome sewing Ronnie.
August_CC_-sketch.JPGyou loved the rides this year.......My "Take" on the sketch chall. Handmade embellie is a crocheted flower which went a bit out of whack but nothing that a bit of glue didn't fix to pull it back into shape lol and also the stitched gingham frame. tfl8 comments08/27/10 at 09:09ones heart: Love the choice of fabric.
August_CC-bowerbird_chall_.JPGFord Falcon in the mid 1960'sLuv'd this chall. but didn't quite go to plan. Scalloped edge - check. 1 button-check. 6 brads-check. 2 or more circles - check.
4 pp's - well there is 4 but used the reverse of 1 so does that make it 5? red-check. 1 number - well I think 1960 is 4 but I needed to put that. 2 diff. alphas - actually I have 3 (the little "s" on the end of the 1960 just had to be there). 1 handmade embellie - well 1 of Bec's little flowers from the blind scrap just didn't look right so I made another. lol tfl 6 comments08/27/10 at 09:05ones heart: Good take on sketch .

DSC09936.JPGCC Aug # theme/inspirationi was inspired by the fabric colours and pattern, but i didnt have a photo so have scrapped a layout without one. I used stich, fabric, and my handmade elements are the cotton reels and sewing embellie that i googled and printed and cut out...oh...and i handmade the BOW too!!!9 comments08/27/10 at 09:02ones heart: love it.
