another very good boi who is my fren. this is gryffindor!
look at this squee little mug i made! it holds about 3.5 ounces of coffee, so just six of these and i'm ready to start my day!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #ceramics #clay #glazed #pottery #slab #coffee #coffeemug #yellow
I'm going to use the C word so cover your children's ears: it's only one month until Christmas!⁠ ⁠ Almost every year since the bee has graced this earth, I have sewn her a softie. Two years ago I went completely overboard and made Katie Kitty from the @Wee_Wonderfuls Book by Hillary Lang. I love this book and have made many projects from it.⁠ ⁠ But how overboard did I go you ask? Swipe to see all of the fun outfits I made for her, including boots, a bag and a pet! My favorite item is this sushi shirt tho.⁠ ⁠ The bee has told me that I should make her a softie every year for the rest of her life (we'll see what she thinks when she's 15!). What should I make her this year? Any great softie pattern recommendations?⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #softie #softiesewing #softiesewingpattern #weewonderfuls #katiekitty
please meet my very good doggo fren, Ollie!
