2009-02-10

i have a new obsession of the moment. it's fixin' indyanna's hair! ever since my sister told me about she does hair, i just can't seem to let indyanna out of the house in a simple ponytail.

i'm pretty impressed with myself over today's hairdo. check out the back of it. pretty cool, hu?



i've been kinda scared of the embroidery machine. i've been sewing on my new machine. but to embroider all by myself? scary. but today i decided to try it.

here is my first attempt. i just cut a piece of material and went to town. maybe i'll turn this into a cute throw pillow or something.



and since that turned out pretty decent, i decided to try on one of indyanna's t-shirts. it's not perfectly centered and i'd like for the design to be higher up but i didn't feel like re-hooping it.

Yeah!! Embrodiery! (ok don't know how to spell it.) Love the Miso Cute!!!! They both look great, very inspiring! Indy's hair is cute as well. Mmm,mmm, I just love the Miso Cute! Clever, clever, clever. Forgot to go thru the patterns for you!! Need a reminder this weekend while I'm at home. In Vegas this week, whoopie.

I am definitely jealous of the embroidery. One of these years I'll be able to get one!

LOVE nanny's hair! I think my girls just might be sporting that one tomorrow. Well, minus the curls. I think I will just do it all in the 2 braids. That sight definitely was motivation to do more stuff with the kids hair, huh! Never realized it was so easy and didn't take so long!

Don’t you just love having the embroidery machine? I have two of them and love them. I can’t ever seem to get the right stabilizer for things, but I’m getting there! Looks good! ~Shelly~

Now I know I'm going to have to splash out for the embroidery attachment for my bernina too. Thanks for showing me what it can do. Great work and I love Indyanna's hair do. Too cute.
