A Spooky Halloweeny Glowing Stingray

Sewist — Sun, 31 Oct 2021 10:00:00 +0000

You’ve probably noticed that I like quirky fabrics, and what could be more quirky than a glow in the dark Halloween fabric? In daylight the stingray is just plain old black and white cotton, with a plush fleece underside. Because the cotton doesn’t stretch, I did find it challenging to sew the top seam neatly […]

What is black and white, and red all over?

Sewist — Tue, 12 Feb 2019 10:00:57 +0000

There aren’t many sewing patterns out there for penguins which look like they’re sliding down a snowy bank, so when BeeZee Art released her latest penguin pattern, I knew it was one I wanted to try making. Rather than sticking with the traditional penguin colours, I decided to use some tie-dye effect plush fabric I […]

Sea Pancake

Sewist — Tue, 03 Jul 2018 09:00:56 +0000

I’ve been following BeeZeeArt on social media for a while, and loved the Stingrays she’d made, and was especially taken with the Mini Sea Pancakes she’d sold at a convention. Up until that point, I hadn’t realised that Stingrays are known as Sea Pancakes, but once I saw those, I knew I wanted to try […]

Festive Forest Furry Bat

Sewist — Tue, 20 Mar 2018 10:00:36 +0000

I finally finished the Forest Furry Bat without jabbing myself with the sewing needle too many times! It wasn’t the easiest of things to hand sew, given the thickness of the faux fur pile, but I think the end result was worth it. I know it’s not really seasonal given that I’d chosen some Christmas […]

Furry Forest Bat (UFO)

Sewist — Tue, 06 Mar 2018 09:00:08 +0000

Ok, so it’s not the fabric I was originally intending on using to make a bat, but the pattern is one of my ‘Nine to Try‘ for this year and after my original idea for the fabric proved a flop, I couldn’t resist trying to make a furry bat instead. First things first, fake fur […]

Glowing Spooky Spidery Bat

Sewist — Tue, 26 Dec 2017 09:00:31 +0000

I actually made this bat back in August but I had to wait until now to share this post, because it was a Christmas present. Using the tried-and-tested BeeZeeArt bat pattern, I got on much better sewing the head gusset and feet than I did with my starry bat. Strictly speaking, the spiders are a […]

Starry Skies and Blue Bats

Sewist — Tue, 25 Jul 2017 09:00:44 +0000

A month or so ago, I was browsing for sewing inspiration when I came across this glow in the dark fabric. I wasn’t too sure how well it would actually glow, but I thought it would look great paired with some blue “minky” to make a bat. Using the bat pattern from BeeZee Art again, I marked […]
