Sewing Tuesday: Beaver Pencil Topper

Beavers are back in Britain! Up until Thursday people thought that beavers were gone from the English countryside but somebody found a beaver in the wild! Here's how to make a beaver pencil topper in celebration of this wonderful discovery. Beavers build dams out of wood - they chew through it with their teeth. Here she is chewing my pencil. Hooray!

Sewing Tuesday: Baby Penguin.

Hi! I saw in the news that people have discovered a new thing about penguins! When penguins huddle together for warmth they do a kind of Mexican wave to shuffle everyone around, making sure everyone has a turn in the middle! 

Watch the video here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-13616778

This Mexican wave penguin huddle is pretty cute. But a Mexican wave baby penguin huddle would be even cuter!

Here's how to make your very own Baby Penguin. Maybe you could make a whole huddle! Let's just start with one though.

Sewing Tuesday: Super Hero Costume.

This week I'm going to show you how to make a super cool Super Hero Costume that you can wear yourself or give as a present to a dad or a granddad for Father's Day. Better still you could get together and make a costume each. 

Sewing Tuesday: Inquisitive Bird.

Hello!
This week, I'll show you how to make this inquisitive bird.

He asks a lot of questions. He doesn't always expect an answer though, so don't worry. He just likes to ask and wonder. He also understands that some things are just the way they are for no particular reason.

Sewing Tuesday: Schneeky Schnake.

Hi there!

This week I'm going to show you how to make this Schneeky Schnake. He's hiding, in camouflage against my red curtains at the moment. 

Sewing Tuesday: The lizard named Lionel.

Hi! 

A friend mentioned to me that she couldn't find any fun sewing projects that boys might like.

So, here's Lionel, he's a lizard. I'm going to show you how I made him today, so that you can make a brother or sister for him. Lizards are not just for boys, but I know more than a few boys who like lizards.

Sewing Tuesday: Royal Wedding embroidery.

Hi there! 

I am away visiting friends and family for the Easter holidays, that's why I've chosen to do some embroidery. Embroidery is great for when you don't have a lot of time all at once and you might need to put down what you're doing and play with a cat or go for a walk or something. Embroidery is great as you can put it down and pick it up whenever you like.

I asked my friend Miss Topper what she thought I should embroider. She thought something about the Royal Wedding would be nice, since it's coming up on Friday. So, here's my design. 

Sewing Tuesday: Easter Chick-a-Dee

Hi there! Here's who I'm going to show you how to make this week.
