My First TARDIS



Here are some Doctor Who things I made for a swap, a clay Adipose and an ami Adipose

 Some Tardis Inspired Stitch Markers and a Cyberman Bag, my first stenciling project

 These are True Blood Word Magnets, they are hard to see i know...
 True Blood stitch markers
 A clay stake and a fang charm to add to a necklace or keychain
 A vampire bite necklace and earring set, this is my first jewelry that I have made, I think it turned out okay.
 A Fangtasia bag, I am thinking about adding something on the back of it...
 Hard to see in the pic, stitch markers
Some earrings

Magnets, horrible pic

 Raw Silk yarn I recieved in a genie swap on Rav.  the gray is mohair from another genie

another genie sent me this book, pendant, and two merino handspun.



Over on Craftster, I am in the End of Summer Random Swap, my partner and I agreed to send each other a hoop and some smalls, I got a Sugar Skull hoop, and a Tardis, there was also a lil Doctor notebook that one of my kids took, and three embroidered monogram hair ponies...

Tiny Houses and True Blood

First up, I recieved my Tiny House from the Tiny House Swap on Craftster, it is super small, but is big on detail:) I think it is adorable.  The trim with the little balls ( not sure the correct term for it) is the smallest kind I have seen of this type, and it has lace and a sheer trim too. And the little flower buttons, too cute....I am super worried about my package though, I tried the DC # and it said it couldnt track it....i really hope my partner recieves or else I will have to make a new one ASAP, plus I made her two so. 



Can you see the tiny ant in the first picture? I think he wants to live there...who wouldn't?


I am all caught up on this season of True Blood, I dont have HBO so I had to find an alternate viewing experience:0  I am confused about Lilith, is she really  there or really there in their heads or are they just going psycho? And Mike Spencer as a vamp, eeewww.... and Warlow, why would Sookie's ancestor make a contract for his first Fae grand-daughter to be given to a vamper?  I guess we'll have to wait until next week to find out.  oh, I can't believe Bud was a bad guy, I really liked him, he was funny, I hated that bitch he was doing (the chunky one) I kinda wanted Luna to kill her, she was a total gank...ughhh.

Chewie

Chewbacca dolls- I got these in a Holiday List Swap on craftster, aren't they adorable? I was only expecting one and my partner surprised me with two of these little guys, which is awesome since I have two boys, AJ LOVES Star Wars and will go ga-ga over his, I can't wait to see his face when I give it to him. I was planning on giving it to him for Christmas, but I may just go ahead and give it to him on his birthday in August, Drew's is in August too;)

Fox and Owl Swap

Here is what I got from my amazing partner in the foxy owl swap on craftster. She is super talented. I was lucky to get such a great partner. This is what I made to send for this swap...

Sewing Machine Cover and Mug Rug

I was in the sewing accessorie swap on craftster, I got a cover for my machine all the way from Austrailia. I also was in the mug rug swap and this is the mug rug I got from my partner;) This is what I sent for the mug rug swap. This is what I sent for the sewing swap, it is a sewing mat that goes under your machine and hangs over, you put your scissors and such in the pockets...

Friday

It has been a long week and I have not got a lot done. I am going to help my sister-in-law fill her etsy orders tomorrow or Sunday. I want to open my own etsy shop but I am not sure what I would sell.. Maybe crochet patterns and completed pieces or embroidery patterns or sewn items... Not sure. Me and the kids went over to mamaw's yesterday, they got a paddle boat that has pedals to make it go for the big pond behind their house. I wasn't planning on staying very long only an hour or so, but we ended up staying all day till like 5:30pm we even went fishing and caught some little fishies (which we released back into the water) I am so red today and I had long shorts on just above my knees so my legs look funny;) I made my first Dresden Plate, I put it on a little towl and hung it on the front of the stove. It was pretty easy once I got going I did sew the wrong end on the first step so I had to get out my seam ripper but I did enjoy it and I am so happy with how it turned out. I have only sewn maybe 10 times since getting my machine a few months ago. I need to take a class to be better at it, but I am really proud of myself for doing the dresden. I also made my first foundation paper piecing, it is a little piece of cake. I used YouTube to learn how to do it. It was really simple actually and I will definately be doing more of this. I also got some swap goodies. First an angel package from the craftser pinterst swap I love the hook roll I got, along with a stuffie fox and a sock monkey for my son and some fabric scraps.:)
