Pass the ketchup

I need some honest opinions on these, I need to know where I need to make improvements. Mostly I'm just glad to get these finished. Next, the ice cream bag!

T-shirt quilt ♥
Feb. 14th, 2008 04:48 pmA few months ago I stole (with his permission, so not truly stealing I guess) a pile of t-shirts that my boyfriend doesn't wear much anymore. He was aware that they were intended for a quilt, but he doesn't know is that I've been working on it secretly to give to him for our 5 year anniversary a week today.

Feb. 14th, 2008 04:56 pmI'm a leader on a retreat that my school is putting on, and we haven't gotten a lot of response out of the other students, so we decided that we wanted to make buttons or something just to promote the whole thing. Heres where I need your guys' help- I was handed the task because I'm pretty artistic and crafty. I have no clue what to do since I don't own a button maker! I was thinking about maybe using felt, but that could be too tedious because I will have to make around 30. Any ideas for what I can do?

COMPANION CUBE!
( Companion cube of woot. )
Made from this pattern. I might post a tutorial at some stage, because the one on that site is pretty much non existant.

...happy birthday, mom?

First attempt at anything plushy-related. I made really complex victorian-style teddy bears when I was younger, but this is the first "fun" plush thing I've done. Just kind of...happened. Good thing my mom's into the weird.
Named him Creedence, & he measures about 8 or 9 inches high.
[EDIT] Sorry if the picture came out giant when you loaded your page!! I didn't realize it was so big on PhotoBucket. It's been resized & should update shortly.
