Run You Clever Boy and Tag

Being the Whovian I am I was inspired to make a little something. Souffle take time, patience and in my experience some cooking genius.

1560 Selfies

My family loves to collect history. It is a favorite pass time at most gathers to pull out the binders and the tubes of photos and documents.  My Grandmother pulled out her boot box full of photos and we found this gem. Selfies are for everyone!

Meet Aurora

I came home for the 4th of July and my mother surprised me with this little ball of energy.

She is half pug and mini aussie.

What's the Stich

So I have been dabbling with plushies to quench my desire to create sculptures and feed my addiction to fabric.  Like with quilting I enjoying either making up my own patterns or trying to figure out how to make quilts I have seen.  It's all about the problem solving and figuring out how things work.  Sometimes I do use patterns but mostly to learn techniques.  One of my first plushie I used a pattern from We Lived Happily Ever After.   I had it's difficulties but I learned a lot about making different plains simply and in the end my cousin was happy for new pal.  

I am still trying more patterns from this site but with additions to make it my own.  

I hope to post more learning experiences soon!

Sick-o

A month or so ago I was deathly ill... Ok, it was a cold but it felt like death.  While laying in bed I had medical masks on the brain and decided to look at some patterns.  After I found the perfect fabric I made this bad boy.

I am in love with this and am thinking about adapting the pattern for a beard pattern.

Hopper Lids

We form parts called hopper lids and me the doodle bug I illustrated the label on the charts white board.

Dustin really liked it and encouraged me to continue working with.  

I'm glad I did continue working on the surreal nature of this. 

Busy! Busy! Busy!

The last 3 months have been busy busy. 

 It has been a blur of brochures, manuals for various machines in the shop and a brand standard the will take effect this month. I've learned a lot about color, printing and more about plastic as well! 

 More projects then time...  My portfolio is drooling a bit!
