Pinocchio

So, last week and over the weekend I've been working on a project using these fabrics, along with the addition of white cotton sateen



( and from it, you'll be surprised to know, I made a quilt )

Pet ID Tags with Shrinky Dinks

[girlyunderwear.livejournal.com]

Hi,
Has anyone here used shrinky dinks to make pet ID tags? I really want to try making one using the Martha Stewart template but I'm not sure how durable they would be. I'm concerned that they'd break easily or get chewed up. If you have any info I'd appreciate it.

Thanks in advance!

mask dilemma

[kyestana.livejournal.com]

I'm going to a formal masks-required masquerade ball and I need to come up with a way to wear a mask that somehow accommodates my glasses. I can't wear contact lenses and there's no way I can go without them. I'm not having any luck in costume shops as I expected, so I'm thinking I will have to make my own...but I don't really know where to start. I've been searching but am not really coming up with anything that would work...any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Two bags for certain music lovers. Music lovers of Tori Amos at least.

I'm back!

Here are my daring and astounding adventures in the world of amigurumi! I'm teaching myself to crochet, and here are some of the things I've made.

First up, an awkward turtle:

I've been drawing and painting a lot recently, after a really long hiatus. For some reason, as soon as I picked up pen and paints again, a whole horde of beetles appeared... and they show no signs of stopping!



Click the picture to see the lot, if you are in a beetly frame of mind. I added some silly life-histories for them over here too.
Having so much fun with these! :)
