I haven't been working on a lot recently, but the console remains in progress! The white shapes in between the thin white 'spokes' have been added, and as a result, the TARDIS console now looks a little like a flower from above. The new shapes are slightly raised, and will have the various knobs and… Continue reading Project Roundup

I finished the khaki jacket! I embroidered two patches onto the arms because it looked a little plain otherwise. On the right, there's this little crest I made up: And on the left are these arrows (?) that I've seen on similar jackets. I would like to put something on the back eventually, but it's… Continue reading New Styles
Project Roundup
I'm still chugging along on the TARDIS console, I'm doing a lot of little structural details at the moment, and I'll hopefully be painting soon, if it isn't raining! These little curved supports were so fiddly! I've also started this khaki-coloured jacket that will also test the jacket/coat pattern I made (after how many jackets… Continue reading Project Roundup
Reach for the Stars
After a couple of false starts... ...I've been making origami stars in between all the bigger projects. They're small and really easy, so they add up very quickly. In addition to all the white ones, I made a couple in different colours, which look really nice! When I said small, I meant Sarah-can-hold-a-few small. (Though… Continue reading Reach for the Stars
A HERo
This was another of those badges that goes from concept to finished product very quickly... The design is inspired by the Captain Marvel movie trailers, where they transition from 'her' to 'a hero', which is a little detail I adored. It's the second Captain Marvel badge I've made, and I believe it's also my first… Continue reading A HERo
TARDIS Updates
I've been in the process of making the TARDIS console, and it's finally begun to look like a console, instead of a fancy post. Before and after sticking the flower petals panels down. Sarah for scale below! It's quite tall, I was hoping to store it in the TARDIS exterior, but that's not going to… Continue reading TARDIS Updates
Finally Finished
Since this first picture of my crocheted scarf, it's come a long way. I've spent what felt like months (and was more realistically a few weeks) crocheting the big blue section until finally... ...I could crochet that sweet, sweet pink row... ...and call this scarf done!! Though hanging here it looks quite long, I think… Continue reading Finally Finished
Apron Making
All week, Sarah and I have been cutting out pattern pieces... ...checking pockets are aligned... ...sewing seams galore... ...to make an apron! With a very handy pocket at the front, for random spoons or timers or a phone for reference pictures. (Sarah's very proud of the pocket.) This will become very useful, as the last… Continue reading Apron Making
Finished TARDIS Exterior
Yay! The handles and keyhole are grey paperboard, and though the black sign door does have hinges, it doesn't open. The light on top is smaller than I'd like, but it's fine for now. I think I'd make it from rolled paper next time, because beads are a little too small. The biggest change since… Continue reading Finished TARDIS Exterior
Old & New
I made new black dress pants for Sarah because I didn't like the way the old pair was made, especially now I have a new pattern for making pants. The new ones have better pockets, which are lined with floral fabric as an experiment to make the pants easier to sew. There's also a better… Continue reading Old & New
