One thing I knew I wanted to upgrade in renovating Tea at Yaz’s was the coffee machine: the old one was more of an urn, whereas this is more the sort in a coffee shop. As you can see, there’s space for three cups; I also added the grille under the cups and a small…… Continue reading Barista Coffee

Curries
Tea at Yaz’s has another addition to the menu – curries! I also made some spice jars for the Tea at Yaz’s pantry too; left to right there is curry powder, chilli powder, and cinnamon. On the left is yellow beef curry, and on the right is butter chicken. I’m very pleased with how the…… Continue reading Curries
Sarah’s Birthday
Yesterday was Sarah’s birthday. As BB-8 is getting a little rusty around the edges, and as Sarah’s world expands, I want to introduce a new android: This is Chip! Chip is a house android, basically a Roomba that doesn’t clean. Chip’s head can swivel because it’s mounted on this rod that allows them to get…… Continue reading Sarah’s Birthday
Meet Petra
The new doll I mentioned in the last post is complete – meet Petra Zapalla! She likes plants and gardening, as well as travelling to new places, especially if they have cool gardens or forests to wander in. Her collection of jumpers is rivalled only by Sarah’s collection of T-shirts. She lives above Tea at…… Continue reading Meet Petra
Happy Easter!
Sarah’s been busy painting eggs all morning to give to her friends at their Easter picnic. “Right, have I got the chocolate eggs and the painted eggs? Yes, excellent.” “Alright, you ready BB-8? Is there anything else I need? Don’t think so, good.” “Let’s go!” Happy Easter! See ya! FillieFanatic
Haircuts
The muslin fabric doll has progressed to completion since last week, and as most of those progress pictures look like they’re from a horror movie, here she is with hair glued on…. …I’ve got the texture I want, but it still needs a haircut…. ….and here we are! She’s got nice bendy arms and legs,…… Continue reading Haircuts
Project Roundup
Guess what I’m attempting again! It’s fabric dolls. This is the muslin that I’m using to test out the pattern and experiment with techniques, if necessary. The actual dolls will be made with some nice cotton. All ready for assembly! (I had to.) I’ve also finally settled on a Carry On badge design, which I think…… Continue reading Project Roundup
Acorns
My intent was to make only five acorns, three little ones and two big ones, but they just kept multiplying…. Whoops! Below you can see the difference between the large and small ones. They come from a Mollie Makes magazine, and they’re probably a little large to be Sarah-sized acorns! Unless you used it as a…… Continue reading Acorns
Parting the Curtains
The interior of Tea at Yaz’s is coming along slowly! I’ve made a few fabric pieces, like this curtain/divider for the doorway between the front counter and the kitchens and such. I also made some on-a-curtain-rail curtains around the front window. I’m very happy with these! I kinda want to put some in Sarah’s apartment…… Continue reading Parting the Curtains
