Dress up @ Idle Hands

Isn't she adorable!!!!!! My friends stopped by to visit me at work and decided to play a little dress up & photo shoot. Except for Jonny's pants and shoes everything they're wearing is from Idle Hands. Briana's wearing a red stretch skirt I designed and made, I also have them available in white, black and teal... Very Sexy Gurl!

Quilted Bag for Friday's Trunk Show

Here's one of the bags I've made for the Trunk Show at Idle Hands Merchantile this Friday 6-9pm. This quilted bag is one-of-a-kind, layered with interfacing to give it a nice sturdy weight. It's bright and colorful with a mix of different textures and fabrics which easily catch the eye. The straps are braided and the inside has a zipper pouch and pockets. I also included a dangling clasp for your keys.

One Love Wallet

Finished another one of my wallets today. This one is made from fabric by Designer Ellen Tracy. Last year I made a jacket with this fabric so I was able to use the scraps for this project. I decorated the outside with some applique flowers, they definitely blend in so I added some silk dupioni petals and a button at the center of each. For another added touch I free-motion sewed the words 'ONE LOVE' on a pink piece of fabric and sewed it into the inside. Overall I'm happy with the out come of this one, still trying to cut down on time but it's difficult cause I want each one to be special. Check it out on etsy, I added a few other items.

Inspiration: First Friday of The Month, all types of art will be on display around the town I live. I'm excited to see what's out there, it'll be fun.

Handmade Fabric Earrings

I'm really tired, but wanted to get a quick blog in before bed... heehee. Just finished putting some of my fabric & button earrings on www.etsy.com. I made them from a couple of my favorite fabrics. The Robots are a light-weight Imported Japanese fabric, and the bright green flower fabric is from Designer Heather Ross. The ones with black and white flowers have denim fabric on the back side, and the ones with the knitted fabric are Missoni. While they appear simple, they take me forever to make. So... I'm excited about getting them out there and having a place to showcase them. Check it out! - terralynn.esty.com
