A very long while back I blogged asking for suggestions for my oldest son who was interested in sewing. At that time, he started a scrap wreath. He finished it a long time ago, but I haven't blogged it. You see, we had a deal: I blogged the wreath so he could get your adulation and he got to keep the wreath after I blogged it. Wait...I made a terrible deal. There was pretty much no upside for me! That's probably why I have taken so long to blog this. I really really want it for myself.
And why wouldn't I? Isn't it GREAT??? Leave your adoration thoughts in the comments...he will be reading.
Lastly I made him an eyeglasses case using some scraps and my tutorial. We found out today that he will need glasses. He seems pretty good with it, but everything is better with a little fabric, right? This one will be for the bathroom to keep them from getting all steamy when he showers.
Tell him his Mamma wants one, too!! That is awesome!!!! love love it! Eli is the Bomb diggidy!!!
ReplyDeleteWay to go Eli. It is amost as cute as you....but not quite.
ReplyDeleteAwesome job, Eli!! That must have taken an awful lot of time and patience. Love it!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! what an amazing artist you have living with you! The scrap wreath is one I would love to hang at my house, certainly. It looks like the colors are all mixed together perfectly, not too many of any color in one spot--he has definite talent for choosing where to put colors. I am going to take a class for that soon so I will be good at it too. Where did he take his class or is he just a lucky dog and good at it naturally?
ReplyDeletewhat a great job your boy did on his wreath! I'll bet it's going to look terrific in his room.!
ReplyDeleteWOw, I love that! I need to make a scrap wreath too now :)
ReplyDeleteI love that wreath
ReplyDeleteI love that scrap wreath! Maybe he can share his mad skillz with us so that I can make one too! That eyeglass case is SUH-WEET! Maybe if I had one like that I wouldn't always snap my fingers shut in mine :) Hugs and kisses to baby cousins!
ReplyDeleteWow great job! Looks like you can build anything with any materials! blocks, cloth, ribbon. You are awesome.
ReplyDeleteThe wreath is awesome - could you tell him its his but put it where you want it? :)
ReplyDeleteThat is one, fantastic, work-of-art, scrappy wreath! I've see college art and design students all the time, who couldn't make one as awesome as that. No lie!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome wreath! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThe wreath is gorgeous, what a great job! Eli did a great job choosing colors, it is a beautiful scrappy wreath. Maybe he should make another one as a gift for you. Love the glasses case, too. The fabric is really cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great looking wreath he made! Such happy colors! Love the eyeglass case too!
ReplyDeleteWow, that wreath looks fab! Don't think I'd have the patience to make something like that...
ReplyDeleteGood job! It's very nice!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is one great looking wreath, I don't blame mom for wanting it...I would love one also! And what super glasses case, I have quite a collection of glass cases...but none that terrific!
ReplyDeleteVery cute....
ReplyDeleteI can see why you would want to keep the wreath! It's awesome. That is so cool that he wants to sew. Watch out mom he'll be wanting a new sewing machine before you know it.
