| Little Black Dress |
[Nov. 15th, 2009|07:11 pm] |
It took me more than a year to finish, but here it is. I think the reason I kept avoiding the last bits is because I knew doing them would validate my suspicion that I made some fundamental mistakes in construction. I'm sorry little dress, that you could not reach your full potential and live up to your expectation. But as always, it is done and lesson learned.

I'm really lucky to live near a community center with an open pottery lab. Here are some of the pots I've made recently.
I like how the colors came out on this one. The blue sorta sneaks around inside the green.
The others did not come out as well. I think there was something wrong with the white glaze that day.

| Cobbling together a zombie astronaut outfit out of a tablecloth |

On Friday it was the 13th, and I went to a club night where you either had to come as a vampire or a zombie, with some stage acts related to various films of the genre. I had a silver heatproof tablecloth hanging about, and decided to go as a zombie astronaut (my boyfriend went as a zombie hick)
I used a 1960s dress pattern for a simple shift dress, easy to get on without fastenings, and without too many seams to weaken the foil.

| Christmas presents |
[Nov. 15th, 2009|01:35 pm] |
Every year my one friend rotates her Christmas decorations between a Snowman Christmas, Santa Christmas, and Penguin Christmas. She has a lot of time on her hands, lol. This year is a Snowman Christmas, so for her birthday in October I made her the snowman off of the Lion Brand website.
( Snowman )
For Christmas I decided to make her the penguin and santa off of the Lion website, too, so she has a complete set.
( Penquin and Santa )
Now I just have to wait to give them to her. That's the hardest part, lol!

Hi everyone! I'm new to the community and have a question on some terminology. My patterns calls for working from side to side. What exactly does this mean? Thank you!
Edit: Just for point of reference, this is exactly what the patterns says: Cuff: Leaving a tail for sewing and using smaller hook, ch 8 (10, 12, 13). Working from side to side, sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across - 7 (9, 11, 12) sts; turn. |

A few weeks ago, I bought some very ugly, dirty chairs from the Salvation Army with the intention of putting them in my small-ish kitchen. They were $12 for the pair, which, frankly, I felt to be quite steep. Look how ugly and filthy! Vinyl cushions! Ew. But they were nice and sturdy, and I liked the metal frame, so I took them home to fix them up.
