Wiggin's Cabin and Such :)

Hello everyone! Hope you like the new look around the blog. I love purple :) But it may be a little too dark? May go for a soft pink and blue later. So I may change it again soon haha :) Anyway, I'm quite proud of myself! I made my first Pocket Pixie using Ginger Melon's pattern :) I purchased several patterns from her a while back and I just recently got the chance to try one out. And she turned out so cute!! I will definitely make more, but I won't be selling them in my Etsy because I feel it would be wrong to sell someone else's ideas who has a shop on etsy, even though I sewed it myself from her pattern. I probably will be making some to sell locally though at craft shows, plus other things I make :) Below is a pic of her :) Ginger Melon's etsy is http://gingermelon.etsy.com if ya'll wanna go visit her shop :)
Speaking of craft shows, in October my hometown will be having an annual "Craft and Vendor" thing called "Wiggin's Cabin," and I'm really looking forward to it! I'm hoping I can sell my homemade crafts there :) And it will be my first time selling my crafts like that! So I am excited. Got to get to work though, lots to do! I will keep ya'll updated. For now, I've gotta get some more stuff up in my shop :) I will update ya'll again when I do :) Ttyl!! Have a good day! ~Leisha~

There and Back Again :)

Good Morning everyone! Just wanted to do an update. It's been busy lately, it seems haha. Anyway, I am going to update the look of the blog today and I also wanted to post what is new at my Etsy shop and some other things that I have been working on at home. Introducing, the LeeLee Dolls! They are tiny, cute and organic dolls that are fun to make and bring a smile to everyone's face :) (Hopefully, anyway haha). I have made a couple so far. One has sold already (the Native American one), but the blossom fairy is still for sale!! :) I am planning on doing many more! Hope you like them as much as I do! Here are some photos!
So, I have been recently learning some new things. I made a tote bag out of two different fat quarters of fabric last night!! I was so proud of myself! haha! So, I plan on making some more of those and practicing some embroidery on them. Here are a couple of pictures of it. Purple zebra with a peekaboo cheetah on the inside!! I love it!! :) Perfect for a lunch tote, an artist tote, a book tote, or a craft/knitting tote! Whatever you want it to be! :)
And two new faces have appeared at the shop as well :) A Tiny Safari Elephant and a Skunk named Precious :) Here are some photos.
Been working on some tiny kittens! Will post pictures soon and hopefully I will be selling them in the shop as well. Also, going to add more tiny safari animals so Tiny Elephant can have some friends! :) Hope everyone had a good Easter!! ~Leisha~
