Kawaii Cat Coffee Mug Sugar Cookie Charm

Hello my dear friends! How have you all been lately? <3

It's blazing hot here in Macau which have become unbearable to go out during the day! What better way to cool off during days like these? Stay at home and happily make crafts with the AC on at full blast! But despite the hellish heat that we're experiencing right now, there's always an excuse to have that piping hot cup of coffee!

So I've decided to make this little cutie cat mug inspired by my love for cats and ,of course, coffee since I've realized that it will be the International Coffee Day in a few weeks! A day to celebrate the love for coffee? Yes! So here it is... a Cat Coffee Mug! I'm still deciding whether or not to sell It's pattern or sell it as a made-to-order item in the future... We'll see.

I'll be busy these few days doing some last shopping for souvenirs and requests from my sister before I go for my long holiday next week. I'll be slightly away for almost a month but I'll try my best to post some photos! My Etsy shop will still be open but If you have any questions regarding my patterns, please do leave me a note on Etsy. It will take me longer to answer since the internet connection in the rural areas are not the fastest or steadiest.. But I'll try my best to reply you as soon as I see them ;)

So till then, my friends!

Cute Felt Owl Ornament Pattern

Hello friends! How are you all? Hope all is well!

Everything is good with us now that my beautiful sun decided to stay with us for a little longer! Despite the warm and sunny days, the typhoon season has not yet ended and we will be experiencing some strong winds and rain in the coming weeks. But for now, I'm happy to have my sun back and to finally be able to wash my bed sheets and quilt covers! ;)

But not only I'm thrilled to wash my bed sheets and pillow cases but also happy to feel inspired which led me to create another fun pattern for you all! My second pattern of the month is finally up and listed in my Etsy shop! I've created this lovable and sweet owl ornament simply because...well, I love owls! ;D Beautiful and mystical creatures..my favorite forest animal after the fox (possibly my next pattern?)!

So enjoy making this cutie! It's fun and super easy!

I'm up to more exciting products that I can't wait to tell you all! What a surprise it will be!

Till next post my sweet friends! Stay well and wishing you a beautiful weekend!

Free Pattern of The Month - Mushroom Cottage Ornament

Hello there! I would like to surprise you all with a lovely free pattern and tutorial on how to make this adorable mushroom cottage ornament. Everyone loves little mushroom houses so I guess this would be perfect for the next free pattern of the month! It's really easy to make as well, even for a non-professional sewist! I've chosen to make my felt ornaments sewn together with a ribbon so that it would be easier for you all to decide what you would like to turn them into in the future other than a simple hanging ornament. Turn them into key chains, phone charms, bookmarks (exclude the filling) or a big brooch! Have fun!

So, shall we start sewing? :D

Materials:

🌼 Main felts for the mushroom 

🌼 Felt scraps for the 'spots', window' and 'door'
🌼 1 pc seed bead for the door knob
🌼 1 pc pearl bead for the butterfly head
🌼 1 pc butterfly sequin
🌼 2.5cm long of 3mm satin ribbon
🌼 15cm of bakers twine
🌼 embroidery threads
🌼 needle and scissors
🌼 water-soluble pen
🌼 universal glue
🌼 polyfil

Step 1.

Cut all the shapes of the given pattern and lay it onto the chosen felts. Lay the 'cap' over on one piece of 'mushroom background' cutout and applique stitch all around.

Step 2.
Secure the 'spots' and the 'gills' with tiny drops of glue then applique stitch them all as well.

Step 3.
 With a water-soluble pen, draw the lines of the 'gills'. Backstitch on the drawn lines using double strands and with a thread that is slightly darker shade. This will give a nice bold effect.

Step 4.

 Place the 'stem' into position and applique on.

Step 5.

 Secure the 'window' and 'door' in place with little drops of glue. Applique the 'window'. Use the backstitch on the outer edge of the 'door' then applique the bottom part.

Step 6.

 Sew on the seed bead for the door knob.

Step 7. 

 With double strands, stitch a big cross for the window.

Step 8.

 Make tiny french knots for the little flowers.

Step 9.

 Position the butterfly sequin in any part of the 'cap'. Stitch on the pearl bead for the butterfly head.

Step 10.

 Fold the ribbon in half and glue it in the middle of the other 'mushroom background' cutout.

Step 11.

 Combine both 'mushroom background' cutouts and blanket stitch all around leaving a small entry for the polyfil.

Step 12. 

 Lightly fill with polyfil then close shut with blanket stitch.

Step 13.
 Insert the bakers twin through the little ribbon hoop. Tie a knot on the loose ends of the twine.

And you did it! 

Save the pattern below and have fun sewing! It's a jpeg image so feel free to resize it. The size of the mushroom in this tutorial is approx. 8.5cm x 7cm.

Have a fabulous crafty week friends!

Space Friends Pattern
