I recently decided to take up sewing. And it, in turn, has taken up our entire house. Must organize this mess of ribbons, bobbins, and fabrics...soon...
Lately, I've been craving to work on more handmade, tangible projects. While I love graphic design, sometimes it's nice to step away from the computer and actually use my hands. I think working on other types of art projects is a great way to help designers tap into other parts of their creative brains, and stimulate new ideas and ways of thinking and being creative.
Here's a Sounders dog collar I made for Elska, using this tutorial as my main reference. I found the nylon webbing, buckle, strap adjuster, and D-ring from a local fabric store. Using this tutorial from my new favorite sewing/craft blog, The Purl Bee, I also made these cute dinner napkins as a Christmas present for my mom, and added these simple ribbon flowers as an extra embellishment.
