resurrecting the table dot

Filed under: Sewing, made gifts — admin at 4:40 pm on Friday, January 22, 2010

Before the holidays even began, a friend asked if I could make her a birthday themed “table dot”. I was flattered she wanted one and was willing to wait after the Christmas season. It was perfect to jump into a craft project- I think this is my favorite one so far. I aimed to keep it simple and concentrate on using wool felt and use “heat and bond” with fabric I had from my stash.

Unfortunately I didn’t take a lot of time to set up shots of the completed dot. The weather is crappy and we haven’t seen sun in days, so the prospect of a nice shoot is “zero”. But I managed to take sections and photographed them so I can remember for next time…I think I may make a few to sell at my sister’s specialty shop and maybe on Etsy. What do you think?

Oh, and the rick and rack is a new element that I totally adore. Note to self: make one for yourself.

Yay! I have been wanting a table dot since you first made them. So pretty please….

Oh, and totally random but a long time ago there was something that you said you were going to mail me. I understand if you never got to it. you know.. life happens and stuff but if you thought I got it and never thanked you for it that would be the worst.

Glad to see you are back to blogging
