His & hers doorstops

Scott asked for a doorstop for Christmas, so I made him one with robots and cogs fabric. I couldn't resist also whipping one up for myself using Wee Wander fabrics. Fussy cutting the Wee Wander fabrics was the best part.


They are filled mostly with plastic pellets but also a bit of stuffing at the top to make them nice and plump. They are not a bad weight but for a heavier door I would add some larger stones in there too, which would probably also mean making a calico lining so the stones don't rub holes in the pretty fabric.

  

Our elf-on-the-shelf (whose name is Eloicious Lovelace Flump or 'Elf' for short) also had fun with the plastic pellets, spilling them all over the carpet and making snow angels!


Happy sewing
Tori
