Weekend Crafts

So this weekend was fairly productive on the crafting side of things.. below are two of the crafts that I was able to complete

The pillow was made by cutting out and tracing around the desired shapes (this time it was the lion's that are on top of the Cummine coat of arms) and coloring them with a fabric marker. Then for embellishment I used a silver paint pen to make the swords stand out more.

The turtle was made purely by accident. Originally I wanted to make a hat for my niece... but ran out of the green yarn before it was deep enough. So I added the head and legs, made a shell bottom (not shown), used 2 buttons for eyes, stuffed it all, and sewed it together. and Voila, a turtle. He's super cute (and customizable!), and the whole thing only took a couple of hours to make.
