The inside. |
I finally finished the cover I made for our car seat. It was overall pretty easy and the tutorial I followed was really straight-forward, Car Seat Tutorial.
Once again I only loosely followed it but just in my design decisions. I decided to make my cover with canvas and I decided to do stripes. I love stripes. I used a red flannel for the inside. As with other projects, I decidedly stuck to gender neutral colors and designs.
The final product. |
Embroidery Project.
So, I decided I wanted to try my hand at hand-stitching something. This is what I decided to make. I just used some canvas and free-handed the phrases I wanted onto it. The second phrase is the same as the first only in Hungarian. I used embroidery thread for the stitching. It was really fun. Just need to frame it and get it on the wall.
Very cute! I love that you're getting all these done early. I think I made mine at 37 weeks, haha. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks Shirley, I decided to just do it when I felt like it, which is good because I feel like I've been losing a bit of my drive lately. It was good to see you briefly tonight, I'm sad I couldn't stay and chat. :(
DeleteLove the Hungarian!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim, me too. Not that we're partial or anything. :)
DeleteThe car seat cover came out awesome! And I love the hand stitching. That's a great idea for baby room decor!
ReplyDeleteThanks Alexis, I really liked how they both turned out, and the embroidery ended up only taking a few hours in total at the most, so that's always nice.
