Slow, so slow. I was hoping to have it done to take to group tomorrow. Oh, well, next week.

But where do I store the left over beans?



What to make next?

November 8th, 2008 at 9:23 pm » Comments (0)

After looking thru my patterns, I decided that I want to make a jacket. I’d made the Kwik Sew jeans jacket before, so it was cut and somewhat fitted. The arms are too tight, and the short version is too short. I considered the New Look pattern, but it’s hard to get [...]

I carved them. The photos are kinda blurry, so they are small.



Applesauce

October 18th, 2008 at 12:15 pm » Comments (0)

I don’t think I ever showed off my applesauce. It looks like an apricot sorbet, probably because I left the skins on. It’s very thick. These apples weren’t juicy. It was very tasty and needed no sugar.



Aster

Does it look anything like an aster?
The pattern is from Crochet Bouquet: Easy Designs for Dozens of Flowers.



Penguin Costume

Progress on the penquin costume!
I still need to make the hood, hem the arm cuffs, and insert elastic in the leg cuffs. I think I’ll sew down the back facing, too.



The magic of photoshop.

Pretty cool, what?
Of course, now it’s going to take me even longer to get pictures printed.
Tutorial; it’s pretty easy.



Penguin Costume

The penguin progresses. The pattern is traced and fitted; I lengthened the legs by 2 inchs (5 cm). My fabric is prewashed & dried. I am checking to see if I have enough fabric in the image to the left.
I sewed things out of order , so the yellow [...]
