Easy T-Shirt Fix Up

So my daughter had this pink t-shirt that I really like (cute shoes!).  She out grew it and, with her permission, I cut the front off.  I centered it on top of a white t-shirt and stitched it down.  This would be great for covering up stains or just for enjoying an out grown shirt.

New Frog Suit

Cosmo was my dad's frog. Cosmo spent many happy years in his windshield travelling the country, but heat and sun took a toll. I threw him in the wash and his fabric just fell off. My son begged me to reconstruct him. I sewed a new mouth from felt.I inserted the mouth into a hole in the new fabric.This shows the front and back.I upholstered his head first. I touched up the eyes with a permanent marker and inserted them through holes in the fabric and sewed it around the neck. Then I sewed a new suit and secured it around his neck also. There are some wrinkles in Cosmo's new suit, but it is good enough for my son to play with. He is thrilled with Cosmo!

Here are Kermit and Cosmo sharing a laugh together.

Angel Hair Repair

Let's hope this doesn't happen to you! This poor angel's hair all fell out! I brought her down from the attic and her hair came out in clumps. My daughter wanted me to fix her, so I hunted around in my sewing room and actually came up with curly blond doll hair (I love it when I can find exactly what I need). My glue gun wasn't doing the trick, so I made a lace veil to help hold her hair on. She started out as a brunette, but I think she looks fine now.
