Over the summer and a few weeks into college and I have been busy as ANYTHING!



I apoligize for the photo quality, but these were taken with a shaky digicam in my room in our flat, so it's the best I could do. ^^;

First up is a pair of pajama pants inspired by another user whose project led me to the fabric:

And more Star Wars theme PJ pants, this time with Darth Vader only:

I found some Charizard fabric at Wal*Mart, and being the huge Pokemon dork that I am, I cranked out these:

And then I bought MORE Pokemon fabric, unable to resist the cuteness of this print:

What can I say? This community inspires me. My next project was an attempt at the pop-tab bracelets and such that have been posted around. I originally was going to make a belt, but then I realized: I don't wear belts! So I made a choker and two bracelets instead.

All three laid flat:

A close-up showing off the interweaving and the glow-in-the-dark plastic lacing I used. So not only does it hold together well, but I glow when the lights are off!:

A trip to the local 'hippie' shop yielded the beads and materials for this necklace that I now adore. I'll admit to being inspired a bit by the cartoon Xiaolin Showdown for this one:

Finally, my latest project. I tried my hand at stenciling, and it turned out alright. This is a patch I made for my jacket so that I won't have to paint directly ON to the jacket:

Kudos to the first person to figure out the design, cuz I'm not telling. ^_^

And that's it! I adore comments and feedback from all of ya. ^^
