Doggy Crate



Crate cover for Loki, and a little flap to cover Mars' entrance way. Bin was very mad at me for making something for Mars- she said, no, Loki's. The flap on the front of Loki's crate will soon have snaps (didn't realize I was out) on the sides, so that overhang is intentional and useful. This is the first thing I have sewn without a pattern or a completed version to follow. I suspect that there were probably better ways of doing this, but, it looks nice and it does exactly what I want, so I can't complain too much. :)

Bin's Birth Announcement


Bin's birth announcement (with her actual name edited out).

Cutie's Lighthouse


Here is my husband's completed lighthouse cross stitch. I really like the frame he picked out for it.

Dragon cross stitch


Here is my latest completed cross stitch. Since it is framed and I needed a flash, I couldn't help the glare, so I tried to center the glare on the wizard's fire ball.

Skirt



Skirt I made- needs to be ironed still.

Crafts

I am currently interested in several different crafty kind of hobbies. This blog is here to showcase all of them. So, what kind of projects might I show here? Well, I am currently learning to sew, so I will probably be putting up those completed projects. Right now, I mostly do costumes (because no one really pays that much attention to quality there) and clothes for my daughter. I am also hoping to make some doll clothes as well soon.

I also enjoy cross stitching so I will put up some finished work as well as WIPs. My husband sometimes cross stitches, so I might put up some of his work.

I rarely paint warhammer figures, but if I do and they look cool, I'll put up pics of those. In addition, I might put up some of my daughters amazing artwork. :)

Since these projects all take a long time, I don't plan to update often, and mostly, this will just be pics. Hope folks enjoy seeing (or in most cases, being forced to see) my crafty projects.
