my first project!

[mon-seul.livejournal.com]

so this is the first thing i made with my new sewing machine. i was just going to make a plain ol' pillow, but then i had some ribbon that matched, so i decided to make it for my friend, hanna. hence the H. the back side is blue with turquoise and yellow polka dots. the yellow looks orange, but it's not. it's kinda small, too. just a little throw pillow, not a full size one. but i still love it. : )

next i plan on making a pink tweed purse with pink silk lining. i just don't know what kind of purse yet. if anyone has any good ideas... let me know!

EDIT: does anyone know how to make those gum wrapper chains? ever since i saw the movie 28 days, i've wanted to make one.
