Project Roundup
In-between projects, I usually check over my previous makes and perform maintenance or give them updates, as I'm currently doing with this sword I made a long time ago. The blade is getting definition, I'm freshening up the crossbar on the hilt, and I might wrap the hilt in leather, or change its colour. I'll… Continue reading Project Roundup
Hot Pink Kindness
One thing I love about free projects is the variety of things that come, because it's always fun to try something new. Cross-stitching is not new to me in any way, and I don't believe sewing on wood is either, but it is still a nice change of pace. This kit came with Mollie Makes #89, my… Continue reading Hot Pink Kindness
Recommendations
Over the last two weeks or so, I bought three new books. Geekerella came from Book Depository, and I bought the Six of Crows duology at a local bookstore. I decided to get the Geekerella hardcover instead of the paperback because of the cover extensions onto the flaps of the dust jacket, and because the book without… Continue reading Recommendations
Still Building
A sore wrist has halted crafting for a little while, so this is about as far as I've gotten with the doll. But, it has given me plenty of time to think about how I'll construct the head, which is good! These are various foot patterns. Bottom left is what I got from Sarah's feet,… Continue reading Still Building
Wrapping It Up
There's a new dish being offered at the Three Broomsticks! I mean, it could be a dish. I've eaten it as a dish before. I made a version of the wraps with meat, tomato, lettuce (or spinach, or kale, though it's probably a bit light for those. But hey, imagination!), cheese, and sour cream or mayonnaise.… Continue reading Wrapping It Up
City Gardens
Sarah and I took a trip into one of the city's gardens for the morning, and had a wander around and took a few pictures. One of the features of the garden is a lake, filled with fish and water birds, surrounded by a boardwalk. I think this is my favourite picture, I just love… Continue reading City Gardens
Body Building
My latest project will be quite a long one, as I am currently drafting a sewing pattern for a Sarah-size doll. Hopefully, this doll will have the same movement as Sarah, just be a little more realistically sized and made of fabric. The above and below pictures show the wire 'skeleton' that will go inside… Continue reading Body Building
Soft Spikes
It was a friend of mine's birthday not long ago, and I decided to make her a little crochet cactus for a birthday gift. These French knots are cactus flowers, which I think look adorable on real-life cacti. The pot is stuffed, and I put a circle of cardboard in the base to help it… Continue reading Soft Spikes
The Final Books … For Now
The final books for batch 2 are done. It's the Starbound Trilogy, which Sarah liked more than I did. The covers are gorgeous (particularly Their Fractured Light), and they're written by an Australian author, so why not support beautiful covers and Australians? This bookshelf of Sarah's is getting quite cramped, as tends to happen. Good to… Continue reading The Final Books … For Now
