Harry Potter Craftalong ~ Sept-Dec 2023

I’ve gotten so behind on posting! Here’s a bunch of stuff I’ve done since my last post in early September. :joy:

Project Title: Strawberry Shortcake Costume
House: Gryffindor!
LC Contest: Halloween Costume Contest

Project Title: Strawberry Shortcake Candy Tote
House: Gryffindor!

Project Title: Huckleberry Pie Costume
Headmistress Challenge - October
House: Gryffindor!

Project Title: Purple Pieman Hat
House: Gryffindor!

Project Title: Pieman’s Berry Pie
House: Gryffindor!

Project Title: Diamond Trip Quilt
House: Gryffindor!
A stash busting quilt, that is finally out of the WIP pile!

Project Title: Have a Heart Quilt
House: Gryffindor!
Another quilt top out of the WIP pile! I’m so happy to have both of these done.

Project Title: Rabbit Lino Block
House: Gryffindor!
I created the lino block in a class on lino block printing that I got to take with @endymion a few weeks ago. It was so much fun! I just barely finished my block in time, and needed to fine tune it at home, so I haven’t made prints with it yet. Hopefully I can make several as Christmas gifts.

Project Title: Blue Dragon Coaster
House: Gryffindor!
Swap Item: Make a Pouch & Fill It R2

Project Title: Girly D&D Patches
House: Gryffindor!
Swap Item: Make a Pouch & Fill It R2
I couldn’t resist making a set of these for @jillybeans in the Make a Pouch Swap. I felt like D&D is so often marketed towards men, and that the image of the average player is male, and that sometimes female players are either overlooked or not welcome in some circles. But there are so many women who play! So maybe something that reflects that diversity was in order.

Project Title: Red/Black D&D Ornaments
House: Gryffindor!
Swap Item: Make a Pouch & Fill It R2
And since the files stitch up so well, I did a set in traditional red & black for her Christmas tree too.

Project Title: Blue Dragon Needlebook
House: Gryffindor!
Swap Item: Make a Pouch & Fill It R2
When I saw this I absolutely had to make it for Jill. Everything was from stash, and it went together so nicely.

Project Title: Purple Dragon Needlebook
House: Gryffindor!
Admittedly I was completely jealous of the needlebook I had made Jill, so I immediately made myself one too.

Project Title: Birthday Flower Crown
House: Gryffindor!
We had friends over for my birthday back in September. I was decorating with my favorite theme (skulls) when I realized some of the kids might find it weird, so I check in with the moms. Turns out the kids liked skulls, and my friend Melissa said it would be a bit like Dia de los Muertos for them, which put a flea in my ear. I ended up getting up early on my birthday, and running over to Walmart to pick up a ton of fake flowers, so I could make myself a crown, and then let all the kids make one of their own too. I forgot to get pics of the kids crowns, but they had a great time.
