I’ve had a Ms Marvel cosplay in the works for a while, as she’s one of my favourite Marvel characters, and this scarf is one of the finishing touches for the outfit. It didn’t take very long! Hand-stitching the ribbon onto the ends took longer than making the scarf itself. I love the way the…… Continue reading Marvel-ous Scarf
Tag: Life-size Makes
Anything I make that’s life-sized, or not doll-scaled.
Project Roundup
The interior walls of Fierro’s have been painted – the pink on top is brighter in person. I have plans to put some fancy details on the walls, so there’s still work to do here. I also bought some new fabric! The two on the left will be the outer and lining of another waistcoat,…… Continue reading Project Roundup
Finished Cushion Cover
At the end of last week, I got all the cushion cover squares sewn together to make this really long and thin blanket of sorts. Which I then sewed together to finish this cushion cover! These buttons were free with a magazine a while ago – the one on the right is peachier in real…… Continue reading Finished Cushion Cover
Chocolate is the Answer
I have this badge that says ‘Chocolate is the answer’ on my pencil case that came from a book a long time ago. It is quite old, and I worry about it falling off and the message it conveys to the world being lost forever. So, the solution I landed upon is to make a…… Continue reading Chocolate is the Answer
Project Roundup
My bakery’s front façade is coming along slowly – here we’ve got the exterior brickwork done…. ….and the addition of a window. The plan is to have the name of the bakery painted onto the glass of the window, which will hopefully look really good! I’m also sewing together all the squares for my cushion…… Continue reading Project Roundup
Waistcoat Adventures
So, I found a waistcoat at my local thrift store a few weeks ago, and loved it so much I decided to make my own waistcoat that was even better. Last Friday, I sewed on the last button, and today, it got photographed! Both the pockets on the front work, as you would probably expect…… Continue reading Waistcoat Adventures
Micro-Crochet Earrings
Remember this little pouch I embroidered a while ago? Well, I found a use for it…. ….it’s filled with little crocheted earrings that I’ve been making over the past little while. I’ve made quite a few so far, loosely arranged into a few categories. The little jump rings loop onto your average sleeper earrings, so…… Continue reading Micro-Crochet Earrings
Project Roundup
The grey fabric in this stack has been made into its garment, it just needs the finishing touches. The other two pieces of fabric are going to become a sunhat when they’re complete. I’m also in the (slow) process of making Sarah another friend! This process always makes me think of Frankenstein, what with the…… Continue reading Project Roundup
Crochet Happenings
I finished another birds’ nest – these get donated through a friend-of-a-friend to Australia Zoo. Also, my yarn supplies are topped-up again, and work on the cushion cover has continued! We’re now three sets of eight in, and it’s looking very colourful. I can’t wait to see it all sewn together, but I’ve still eight…… Continue reading Crochet Happenings
My First Beanie
This rainbow beanie did get finished a while ago, but it’s only now cold enough to reasonably wear it, so! Here it is! The pattern came from a Simply Crochet magazine, and had this front post/back post half treble ribbing, which was difficult. But I love how it turned out! The pompom turned out a…… Continue reading My First Beanie
