Week 29 - Milo

China was AWESOME. And since I didn’t bring my sewing machine, you will have to  contend with another dog drawing.

Milo is steph’s dog and he isn’t well. We worried about him in China, but I knew he would wait for stephanie. That’s the kind of dog he is.

now back to sleep off this jet lag.

Week 28 - If you are reading this. I’m in China.

That’s right. I went to China without Tad. I am spending my honeymoon with my good friend Steph and my sister Ciara.

Here are some favors that I made for the wedding based on this design.

Each one came with its own chocolate brain. I watched over as a crowd of wedding attendants devoured brains, and liked it.

Week 27 - Hell Hath Frozen Over

This weekend I got married. Anyone who knows me, knows that I said this day would NEVER happen. Well you know what they say, never say never.

I have to admit, it was a wonderful experience. Because of budget constraints, Tad and I kept it to local family and a few close friends. We had the ceremony and reception in our backyard and everything went off without a hitch - even though we didn’t have our vows until 2 hours before!

I had such a good time that I can’t wait to do it again. HAHAHA.

Week 26 - Until Death

Next week the end of my life as I know it happens.  Dun-dun-dun!

Week 25 - Big Changes

Over the next few weeks I will be buried up to my eyeballs in things that need to get done. The project as a whole, most people take a year to plan. I am planning in a month. Yeah, I’m that good.

The next project was rather large so you will see pieces over the next three weeks. Here is a sneak preview.

Week 24 - Planning

Started planning a life-changing event this week, so I didn’t have much time to work on a fabric project.  However, I did sketch my dogs and here’s a sample.

Week 23 - Off to the races

I was invited to an Adult pinewood derby car race that happened last week. I didn’t have car parts, I didn’t have any idea how to even build a derby car.  Those who know me, know I hate committing to anything. So I didn’t decide to actually go to the event until the night before. I didn’t have any pine. I had no wood. But I did have fabric….. Siobhan to the rescue!!!

I decided to build an invisible car…. and who would have an invisible AND invincible car, but Wonder Woman.

To see the whole embarassing get up, check it out on my flickr page.

Week 22 - toof

This wasn’t meant to be a tooth. I made this little guy up at our friend Stan’s who is a potter. I also made a mug but I didn’t finish it. Boo hoo.

I requested a green glaze, but it looks like Stan dipped this guy in white. I thought of him as a cute loveable monster, you-know like shrek!  But it looks like he wanted to be a bright white toof.

week 21 - Ants in my pants

I wanted to try my hand (hehehehe) at finger puppetry.  So I made a little ant.  I wish you could stick your finger in it because it is super comfy.

The legs are kind of wonky and the face creeps me out, but other than that it works well.

week 20 - Cube, squared

Tomorrow is my birthday.

Tried my hand at the cube dude again.

Cube squared. They do make a handsome square pair.
