Skully Smile embroidered fleece scarf
My daughter got invited to an 11yo boy's birthday party this past weekend... and didn't tell me about it until Thursday night at bedtime. So with no time to do considered shopping (as opposed to just buying Scrabble or Jenga and hoping for the best), I figured it's hard to go wrong with a fleece scarf and a smiley face in Canada's February chill. The scarf was very quick to make: just the width of the black fleece, the width of the yellow fleece, stitch them right sides together to make a long tube, clip the fringe, turn, topstitch, and done. Except I have an embroidery machine, and I am always looking for an excuse to play with it. I downloaded (not free) the Skully Smile from Urban Threads
. I seriously doubt I will ever post anything in a crafting-type forum again without referring to Urban Threads. If I'd had time to hit the fabric store, I'd have bought a little more of the yellow fleece so I could make a matching hat. I think the scarf is wowful enough, though.
Cross-posted like, totally everywhere, 'k?
My husband doesn't want his face pasted all over the internet. He's kind of got a point - I mean, why should I make you all jealous? ;-)
Speaking of jealous... I'm totally coveting my neighbour's acreage. It's a good thing we went handmade for this boy - I don't think we could have bought him anything he didn't already have.
