#14 Alphabet chart on the WIP list is an oldie. I started it ages ago. If you look at the related posts at the bottom, you'll see that the second post is also the post where I got my first ever sewing machine! Probably time to get cracking on this one.
It was originally intended as a 2nd birthday present for my goddaughter. She'll be 5 in September. 5th birthday present then!
P is for pig. I used a satiny kind of fabric, added a button for a nose and chain stitched around. These are all hand-applique by the way. As I started this before I got a sewing machine, I was doing it by hand... how much quicker it would be by machine!
I love this little bunny! I added a pompom for his tail. It's probably good she didn't get this for her 2nd birthday as all the little buttons and pompoms and stuff would be choking hazards, now I can feel free to add whatever I like.
U is for Umbrella. Yes, I do know my alphabet, but I'm not necessarily doing them in order! I'm not too keen on this one. I was going to add beads for raindrops but I'm not sold on it...

I found an offcut of a felt-type fabric. I say felt-type as it's felt-like on the front, but not on the back. No idea what it is or where it came from, but it works well for a little sheep. He doesn't have a face.

Oh this is going to be great, I'm sure it will really help her with the alphabet x
The sheep doesn't have a face!!!
Also, I love the pigs nose, it's perfect!
I love all of them. The umbrella looks great, but maybe you can embroider the handle so that it's a little thinner? Then add the raindrops!
This is cute, and i like the umbrella, what's wrong with it? :o)
Alphabet samplers are wasted on 2 year olds! Five is a much better age and stage for them :)
That's going to be sweet when it's done - I think bead raindrops would be really adorable (think clear or silver), but you could also embroider some :D
oh these are all super cute!
They are all adorable! How about using some beads to make the outline of raindrops?
I am sure she will love it nonetheless. I think the hand applique makes it all the more special
Having gleefully spent the last ten minute going through your alphabet posts, I have now decided that your jigsaw is GREAT, your mouse is super cute and your umbrella is PERFECT! You need raindrops. I love the ombre shading on the brolly. x
Wow, I can't wait to see this when it's finished! It's going to be so cute!
