ugg sewing snafu

i HATE it when i start a project then can't find the directions on how to finish it!  with my hands into every craft known to mankind keeping the directions to the basics always come in handy.  oh well, it made me pare more attention to dark shadows.  still think i'm more addams than collins but that's just me.....
 

getting off my butt

guess i better stop blowing up tie fighters and get sewing.

made up for lost time!

cranked out 3 or so different walker bags and some wallets made from scraps!!!!  and strung some of the necklaces!  go me!

walker bags

hoping to get started on some walker bags.  they seem like something that people could really use.  do you agree?

finished (mostly) for the day!

after mostly finishing my 2 coffin purses that have been waiting for me for a while, we made upcycled drops to put on necklaces.  a fun challenge!

Awesome you tube!

I so want to find a pair of leggings like the ones i live in and try the DIY that Yami did.  They were so CUTE and they will be nice and cool in the summer!

dark and dreary

hard to do crafts on a dreary day.  you cant see anything even if you have enough lights to shame times square!

impromptu crafting!

finished cutting a custom order than got distracted by shiny things!

custom order

after a mix-up i get to make a custom purse...wish me luck!  I always worry that it won't come out as well as the customer expects.....then again i am paranoid :)

new items!!

finally listed 3 more of my purses and updated 3 others.  still waiting for the vids to upload so i can add the links but the goodness is up for all to see

Click here to go to my shop!

goofing off

not sure i'll get anything done today before the all star race....does pulling out the elastic to a skirt that still doesn't fit count as crafting?  Although i did finish up making pendents early this morning before bed!

filming!

Finally got some hopefully good picts of all the coffin purses I made up to this point plus 30 sec vids that I want to add to the shop description!  just on to the editing and posting....I hope!
