hello Monday!
so…awhile ago I shared this photo…
I finally decided to take a weekend to begin working on this playhouse teepee for Cedar…
I am so glad I purchased the paper pattern from Simple Simon and Co…rather than taping a PDF together!!
I don’t know if I cut something wrong, but I did have to purchase additional base fabric…
I did decide to add this awesome faux fringe…I used two yards…
after putting the sides together…then I added the pole casings…
I will be sharing the finish with you on Friday…
and the giveaway for the week…
spy something fun??
Happy Sewing!
I always have loved red and white anything and the stripe fabric could be fun.
How adorable is that? I’ve got 3 grandbabes that would love having their own teepees at Grama’s!
I just ordered my pattern! Thank you for the suggestion!
Great tepee Brooke!
Love the black & white scraps from your teepee.
I’ve been wanting to make a play teepee for the grandones, thanx!
Oooooh. I have been wanting to make one of these for my boys. How fun!!! Love the fabrics.
No babies in my house anymore so perhaps my mini schnauzers would love it> It looks so fun to construct. Scheming up a design now and what to use for the poles. THank you Brooke for sharing!
the tiny little blue and red flowers, bottom right, look fun!
I love the fabric you used in the teepee and spy it in the pile!
What a fun idea; a tepee! Like the red & white fabric!
Wish my little braves were still young enough to enjoy the teepee but they have all grown up.
That white and black leftover from the tent looks fun! My 10 yr. old was the oldest grandchild on my side of the family, and I just LOVED all the things my mom made for her. I’m sure your daughter and grandson will, too. My mom didn’t make a teepee, but she did make one of those play mats with arches that go over it, and then sides that tie up to make it a tunnel. My kids (and the cat!) played with that for years.
I love your teepee and dream of making one for my granddaughter some day. Your scraps are beautiful, and as I’m on a forced fabric diet this year(food and medical bills have to come first), so I’m going to be doing mostly scrap quilts and mini quilts. Not looking for pity, it’s just a fact of life when you’re diagnosed with multiple serious health issues at 54. Hope you had the merriest Christmas, and a fun filled New Year with lots of quilty fun! cdahlgren at live dot com
