It's time for handmade presents again \o/
This weekend my middle sister and her fiancé came over to celebrate a veeeery belated Sinterklaas/Christmas. As we do every year, we get assigned one person who we make a present for (some of you might remember last year, when my sister made me Worry Hunters). This year, I had to make a present for my dad. I made him this:
A Beatles messenger bag :D
:D :D :D
Look at the awesome fabric I found for the inside:
It's pretty big, so lots can fit in it:

Transferring the drawing onto the fabric with transfer paper.
The drawing on the fabric.
Time to embroider it on.
The endresult.
Time to make the bag. I got the pattern from a magazine.
putting the outside and inside together.
Almost done.
My middle sisters fiancé had me, and he made me a Captain America themed present. :D
How awesome is this?
It's actually a broche:
And here's what the rest of the family made:
My mom had my sisters fiancé and made him a wolf mug rug:
My dad had my middle sister and made her an wooden owl:
He also wrote her THIS awesome poem, but it's in Dutch, so only interesting for my Dutch friends. :3
My middle sister had my youngest sister, and made her a subby Ray Kowalski from Due South:
It actually does squeak. :')

The cut-out boyfriend:
My youngest sister had my mom, and she drew her a tropical frog:
So many awesome gifts. :D :D
