I used Ed Emberley's dragons for the main fabric, which I bought at Hawthorne Threads. I am in lerve with this print, and I plan to use the rest of it in a quilt for the little man someday soon. The other fabrics are fat quarters from Jo-Ann. I had the other materials around the house, including the awesome glittery black hair tie for the closure. :)
I followed the tutorial pretty much exactly, except I made each fabric piece 16"x16" and I used fleece for the lining instead of flannel. It's a little thicker and provides more padding and stability for my purposes. I also made the pockets 2.5" wide to accommodate 2 pairs of drumsticks each as his collection grows. I hope he likes it!
So I realized that this is my first post in a while... sorry about that. I've done a few projects, but not much worthy of its own post. I have some recipes to share soon, though, as well as the upcoming penguin party!!! Here is a sneak preview:
I'll be making a lot of the decor and party favors, as there is a very limited supply of penguin stuff in the world. These invites are just cardstock and a little orange crepe paper left over from a Halloween party of yore. Today I need to make a piñata. I'll let you know how that turns out... O.o
