Since I have not been on Gather a whole lot lately I figured I would share some of the things that I have been doing with my time. Not that this has taken all of my time, but I have been in sort of the craft mood lately so I have been working on a few things!
This is a pumpkin that I sewed, I didn't have a pattern I just cut a bunch of fabric out and hoped that when I sewed it together it would look allright, lol. I guess it turned out pretty good.
this is the finished product:

and right after I sewed it, before I went around it with some threads to define the curves a bit better.

Maddie just loves her new pumpkin, and this one we don't have to worry about getting rotten, so she can keep it all year round :)


I also made a pumpkin hat for Maddie, since she loves hats so much, and I thought it would just be too cute!
I think it looks sort of funny in this pic because I stuffed it with pillow fluff to get it to sit up on the table so it seems a bit lopsided.

Maddie was more than happy to model her new hat for me :)




Many of you might remeber me sharing with you some of my hairbows in the past.
I made several new Halloween ones this year.






And a few new mixed with ones from last year:

Here are a couple more bows that I made recently that are not Halloween or fall related:


A shirt I sewed for my lil sister awhile back:




I also recently started making some wire jewelry so here are some of my first projects:

AND my very first attemp at making a ring:



I also made a bracelet, but I gave it to my mother and I forgot to take a pic of it first.
THANKS for looking at my stuff!!

I love everything. Maddie is just the bestest model of your really cute pumpkin crafts.
Those hair bows make me wish that I could wear them. My hair is so thick that even scrunchies don't work very well.
I really like the colors and the patchwork look to your sister's shirt. It is also neat because it shows off her tat.
The wirework is looking grand. It is addictive when you get going, isn't it. It frees you up from the restraints of working with normal beading string.
Love the had and the model!
What big eyes she has
I was thinking of you yesterday because Abbey's hair is finally long enough for her hairbows again. She has the blue one in now since there was nothing Halloweenish in the bunch you made me.
I need to start doing some jewelry design for a coworker's birthday and for the holdiays.
Marianne, I was thinking about that a few weeks ago when I was making the Halloween bows and don't know why I didn't make any Halloween ones for you out of the bunch I made.. I guess I wasn't thinking that far ahead, since it was Dec. when I made them for you...
I really love that ring, it's beautiful!
