Serial kil…painter…

Our kids had new bedrooms few months ago.

Nos loulous ont une nouvelle chambre depuis quelques temps. And who says new room also said new decor !

Noland wanted a dinosaurs bedroom (I think he will become a paleontologist, because he knows the name of a lot of them…He’s 4 years old, but it’s easier for him to say « Brachiosorus » than « there is »…). I used dinosaurs fabric (already seen before) to make these pictures.

tableau5Eline wanted a princess bedroom (I was sure ! Our kids are stereotypes !) I done some frames, painted with flashy colors to enhance the wallpaper. Then I decorated the bottom with stickers. Then I hooked Christmas figurines !

One for Nolan’s teacher assistant

Here is a makeup bag for Celine, the Nolan’s teacher assistant. It is larger than the last kit as for another use. Coated fabric and fully lined.

With a big front pocket and, of course, her first name !

…one for Nolan’s teacher

A second custom suitcase and several inside pockets. The teacher is coquette!

This time, suitcase is a little bit smaller, and has a greater shape.

P1030097Problem was the badge : if you use a classical pin, your badge will lean to the sire. I had an idea a long time before but had no opportunity to try it. It’s done now : I replaced the classic button by a Kam press button. It works, and you can change your badge really quickly now !

One for Eline’s teacher

Initially, I had the idea to make her a small suitcase. But one day, after the school, she asked me if it was possible to order a pencil kit (same than Eline). I took this opportunity to make and offer her the object she really wants.

The kit is done with coated fabric, big enough, (25 cm) and doubled. Two small badges remind the fabrics used in plum tones.

In the back, a small patchwork of pretty fabrics.

One for you…one for me…

So, here are some little things I done during the last months : end-of-year presents for our daughter and son’s teachers.

I initially done this little bag as a present, but I the end, I kept it for myself (perhaps the first time in this year I do something for myself 🙂 )

it’s done with a silver fabric, and its inside is done with a red fabric. The nice mirror buttons comes from our brand new haberdashery. Yes ! We have now a haberdashery in our village ! I’m really happy !

Il fallait donc en refaire !

Miam miam…

As I promised you some days ago, here is my « miam miam » lunch box. That’s an isothermic bag I use everyday to bring my lunch at work. the fabric is doubled and quilted (like some supermarket cool bags). The next one will be done with a survival blanket, more efficient to keep the good temperature !

Kids got the idea to put it around their neck, like flight cushion ! That’s a good idea, but I need to change a little bit the pattern.

And, of course, Eline would like one for herself !

Painting tell me who I am …

For my sister’s birthday, I wanted to make her a « trendy » with the same style than the « poule« . I better handle scissors and iron than brush and paint, especially for something as precise. It is entirely made with fabric, the frame is made ​​of two chassis assembled (as I could not find the size I wanted)  and it is padded  to make « cocooning » effect . The letters are thermofused.

I asked her to give me the more important words for them, and the whole family participated.

Here is the result.
