Monday in the making

After making a wall hanging and a cushion, I craved making something cuddly over the weekend. The result is another set of 'Jellybean Buddies'.

This sweet, little set comprises of two 'Jellybean Buddies', one being a 'parent' and the other being a 'child' (which is smaller in size). They are cute, little, cuddly toys that have been totally handsewn with care using polar fleece/fleece, stitched with felt embellishments. This set is available in my store and are looking for some cuddles. Please email me if there are any questions (tupsyturvydesigns@gmail.com).

I've got some new projects in the pipeline. I can't wait to share them with you later on!

Weekend Wonders - Inspirational and crafty

What a contrast in weather! Last weekend it was sweltering hot and this weekend has been much cooler with some showers of rain. I know that there are areas of Australia that are in flood, whereas where we are, it would be nice to have a heavy shower of rain to top up our water tanks.

I was able to spend some time today to sit down and do some craft. I made a Jellybean Buddy set (I will show photos tomorrow) and I have worked out the final details of cushion #1 of my train series. I can't wait to start to cut out the felt and make some progress on that project! That will be this week's project.

It is funny what inspires designs. Mr T had the 'V8 Supercar Clipsal 500' race on the TV over the weekend. I don't usually spend a lot of time watching TV these days, but it was on when we sat down briefly for a bite to eat. As I watched, another design for a cushion popped into my head...another one for the boys! I will draw a quick sketch, but I think it might need to be put away for a little while, at least until I have finished my train cushion series.

Whatever you were up to this weekend, I hope that it was restful and enjoyable!

Monday in the making

It is funny how one design seems to lend itself to others...

When I was creating the Jellybean Buddy family, I started to think of other possibilites the Jellybean buddy could be. When my friend had her baby I immediately knew what I was going to create for the new arrival.

Not your ordinary Jellybean Buddy, rather a rattle. This little jellybean has some crinkly material in his head and a bell tingling in his tummy.

Sometimes a new design doesn't need to be totally new, rather it is an adaptation or transformation of an existing design.

Happy creating!

Monday in the making

Monday already! Things have been busy at Tupsy Turvy Designs. I've been happy with the progress of my new creation - Jellybean buddies!

This is one Jellybean buddy out of a family of four. This little buddy is made out of polar fleece, which makes this little guy soft and cuddly. Perfect for little hands. I aim to make a colourful bunch of 'Jellybeans' in family groups, in pairs and for individual sale.


I'll keep crafting and all the best with yours also!
