My kids are going to a birthday party this afternoon.
The little girl, whose birthday it is, LOVES the smurfs.
We've already given her a shop bought gift, but I always like to give a little bit of handmade - so I made her this Smurfette library bag.
I googled Smurfette colouring pages and found many, many designs.
I printed up a fairly simple one, drew the components onto some Heat n Bond and pressed them onto some solid fabrics. I then stitched them all down using raw edge applique in black cotton thread.
My little lady has already put in her request for a Smurfette bag too.
Smurfette is Smurfalicious!

ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of library bags I did when my kids were small, esp a "Where's Wally" one for one of my sons..... he really loved it & I think it went with him when he left home a few years ago :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea for a birthday gift! My girls would have loved this when they were little.
