Altered Fairy Tales Swap - January 2010

I had a really hard time with this swap. My partner liked zombies and well I don't like them too much. But in the end I again went over board in this swap and sent my partner a really cool package. There were extras but here are the items that I made for her. I made her an Alice in Zombe Land dress with Assault apron. The blue dress is seperate from the apron and I only added "blood splatter" to the apron incase she wanted to use the dress by its self for something. I love how this turned out and I and thrilled that I able to try pleating with the apron.  Again I had a realy hard time givning this away, and I was choked that my partner didn't even bother to take pictures of it. I loved it though so I guess thats all that matters.

Big Beautiful Woman Swap December 2009 - package two

Well as things go in the world of swapping there are bound to ba a few flakers : ( And I hate flakers, so I try and help people out by filling in for some one who has flaked. This is what I did for the BBW sawp. After sending my package to Australia I offered to send another package to a gal in the USA. Bellow are a few pictures of the stuff I made for her. Now for both of these packages I also sent baught items but I am just posting the stuff I make on this blog. These were my first attempts at working with stretchy fabric and I think they turned out great!

New Bag!

So I whipped up a new bag today. I took one of my existing patterns and I revamped it and I am just loving the new look. I LOVE the adjustable strap and I love that I can fit 2 skiens of yarn in it and it still has a bit of room. With the flap closure I can knit two socks with each strand of yarn coming out from either side of the flap. And of course I LOVE satin so of course it is lined with satin. I Hope you all like it as much as I do!

                                             3 Skiens shoved in and if need be I could fit a 4th

                                             Three skiens standing on end, just a cool pic, lol
