Lucas Makes a Bear

Yesterday I gave my grandson Lucas his first sewing lesson. We made a teddy bear. We looked online for a pattern to give us some ideas, and wound up picking one called Charity Bear from Shiny Happy World. Of course we had to tweak the design! He picked out the fabric, a heavy brocade and a paisley corduroy back. He took the bear home before I got a photo of the back! He cut out the pattern, learned how to pin, how to use the presser foot, reverse button, and cutter on the sewing machine. It was his idea to put the yellow parts on the ears......he did most of the stuffing, we added some dried lavender so that made it into a dream pillow. We sewed the opening together with a slip stitch. Ta Da! He named her Lavendy.



We are looking forward to our next class. Not sure what we are going to make, maybe another bear for his brother. :)

Sew Bee Mine will be at the Phoenixville Farmer's Market Saturday May 14th from 9:00 to 1:00.
I love being at the market. Added bonus this week is the fabulous Hyatt Family Band will be there.


I have been working on some new bags.....these will be at the market.


This "nothing matches" but it actually does match, fully lined bag was made with a vintage appliquéd and embroidered lass........plus other vintage fabrics. There is a pocket on the outside in back, plus two pockets inside and a loop to hold your keys. It is really fun to combine these fabrics :)

Below is the front and back of another one. This was created with vintage barkcloth, linen embroidery, African wax batik lining inside. Two pockets inside plus loop for keys, embroidered linen pocket on outside.




Hope to see you at the market.
