DS lite nes style case

[piratecore.livejournal.com]

I got a ds lite last month and I wanted to make myself a fun case to keep it in, so I made this thing! It's a cross stitched needlepoint case made to look like the old NES controllers. It took forever to make, but I like it!

Hi Everyone!

First let me say this is x-posted like a mofo!!

OK moving on!

I sew a lot, I don't care much for my machine and I am very interested in getting a new one

Here is my question...

I want to get a sewing/emobrodiary machine combo. I am new to the world of embrodiary and a combo machine so I need your help.

Does anybody have one that they woudl recommend or some decent resources and to check out what the different options may be?

I appreciate your help!!

What do y'all think?

I love this bag

[lilac-quilts.livejournal.com]

I re-worked a pattern to add a lining to the bag and I think I ripped out every seam at least once.

I've now got my own pattern with the steps in the right order and it should go much more smoothly now.

It is just stunning, and I'll be making one in blue and white as well.

Crochet Necklace?

hi there, ladies!
I am looking to make something similar to this:





however, I have no idea where to start! I'm assuming it's crochet... I found this post (and the one before it), but the author didn't give any patterns or advice on how to do it. Have you guys seen these necklaces? Any ideas?

Thanks!

does the bird on the right look a lot thinner/longer than the one on the left?

I know that they're knitted somewhat differently and I wanted to get an opinion on whether it looked good or not; if it's nice that they're not knitted perfectly alike or if it looks horrible. These are the final pieces for the cardigan that I'm knitting for winter!

MY stupid dog just ate a hot-glue stick. It wasn't in use, so it wasn't hot or anything, but there's not an emergency vet in my town where I can either call or take her to. I know a lot about cats, but not much about dogs (it's actually my parents' dog). Is she going to be okay? I looked up "hot glue sticks" online and I've only found brands that are labled "non-toxic", so does that mean it's okay? I mean, I'm not going to go on a hay day here and feed her buckets of them or anything since they're non-toxic, I just want to make sure one isn't going to kill Muffy or maim her in some way. Thoughts? Help...?


ETA:

First off, thanks for all of the responses, I really appreciate it! One of the websites in the comments said that to get her to vomit, we could put a tspish of salt on the back of her tongue. She didn't quite care for that, but after at least a tsp of it, still no pukey.

Steph 2. Hydrogen peroxide. Will it react with salt? Who knows. Did we feed it to her? Yes. Did she hork? No. And she begged for more of the stuff. ::pokes dog in the stomach::

She's not any more lethargic than usual and she's not acting unhappy or anything, so I guess she's okay for now. Poison control gave me more advice on making her barf, but it was pretty much all the same stuff, so bully to them. She's currently sleeping like a puddle of dog on my mom's bed. We shall see how she feels in the morning...
