Fabric Journals

I've been crafty lately working on fabric journals. All it takes for me now days is to see something a little cool on a crafting site and I get this feeling that I must try it. This was a learning curve. I have to say as tips, measure first. I've been doing this all willy nilly and well I had to take it apart a few times to fix the shape. I am almost finished with the basics of the shell but the design is still going to take a while.

Fliers

I have been designing a few fliers for my sisters photography business lately. Its fun to play around in the programs. Here are a few samples.

Moving somethings around

I have decided that I need to move somethings around on my blog. I believe that there is a direct need to have multiple to separate out the crafts, cooking, and general chatter. I also have started one just for random thoughts http://b-evenmore.blogspot.com/, and one solely devoted to recipes and cooking at http://bs4baking.blogspot.com/. I hope you enjoy...or at the very least entertain yourself by laughing at my boredom.

Meanderings

I'm on pause as of now due to class constraints. With my many projects completed this year a break isn't necessarily a bad thing. On a side note I am kind of sad I haven't heard anything from the person the Clemson baby blanket was for. I believe I get too incredible excited about my projects sometimes. I have 2 incomplete projects running at the moment. One is for my niece and is a blanket that I have been working on for nearly 6 months off and on. the other is an ordinary everyday scarf that I hope to finish soon with a hat to go along with it, but we will see.

I had a recent request for a Minnie Mouse hat. I've looked at the schematics and realize that it shouldn't take me long at all to complete. Like say one boring Saturday or a couple of week nights. Which is always awesome when you have time constraints.

At least for right now I am grounded for projects until I finish this paper due Monday. Politics, who writes about politics.

Clemson Blanket...Finally Finished !!!!

Clemson baby blanket finally finished!! I'm not a fan at all, but I thought it would be a nice gesture to create something for a new mother. It took way too long and at the end I must admit cost too much money (yarn is expensive people). I didn't expect to finish this one but felt I had to. I think it turned out well though and was a big challenge of my skills.

What you have been waiting for

From across the sea I stole a hat from a viking while he was taking a pee. Enough with the silliness!

Ok, maybe you haven't been wait for my viking hat, but I'm pretty darn stoked about it.

This had was finished in a record time of 5 hours. When I should have been at the gym, mowing grass, and cleaning house instead I was creating this. it was so much fun and hobbies should be something you enjoy, right? I would post the pattern but I didn't have one and didn't write the stuff down for the horns. Maybe next time.

New Projects!1!

I'm working on a hush hush project. Well it's not really hush hush, but I think it's too cool to spoil before it is complete. It will be awesome (insert teaser..lol). I am truly excited about this one!!

On to other businesses. I am still working on the Clemson baby blanket which is taking a hella long time and too much concentration and skill. Gotta love a challenge. The work is tedious, I think it will be worth it in the end. Hopefully it will bring some happiness to the parents or at the very least the kid.

I have recently completed a scarf for my niece for a present. Not sure when I will give it to her but I think it was a rather awesome idea since she is such a colorful person. This scarf was all knitted with a fuzzy, color splash yarn I found at hobby lobby. I think it turned out rather well. (photo listed)

I haven't been cooking anything interesting this week. I am wrapped up, so to speak, with theses projects and trying to finish them in record time.
