First post

Hi!
I've recently become obsessed by Pinterest's DIY section and decided to keep track of my DIY projects in blog format. This first post is for the jean whale that I made, based on the tutorial by Mevrouw Walvis at http://valaanvillapaita.blogspot.com/2011/05/tee-se-itse-valas.html. (It's a great design- thanks to her so much for sharing it!)

I printed out the photos Mevrouw took of her fabric to use as a template, stitched it by hand instead of machine (because sewing machines hate me), and filled it with scraps of t-shirt left over from my t-shirt rug project. I'm really excited by how well it turned out- my sister has already told me (ordered me would be more accurate) to make her one too.


 
He's so cute!
