Wallets, wallets, wallets.

Wallets! Or card cases. Not quite coin purses since they don't seal completely. Don't want change falling out everywhere. I haven't tested them for that sort of thing though, so maybe coins could work...I'll revisit that subject later.

Anyway, wallets/card cases! Cute, simple, and actually useful! Not to say hair accessories, pins, and stuff aren't useful, but this is something that's actually used. In two (or was it three?) days, I made five wallets.

KiguKids Red Twins + Mini

After finalizing the kigukid design, it was time to make some for the shop! Again, I dug through my fabric stash and found some oriental patterned stuff that came in a pack. Since there were two red types, making twins sounded like a cute idea

KiguKids Prototypes

After the previous dolly mishap, I tried another approach. I used the same face idea because that was the only thing I liked about the other doll. Unfortunately I didn't get other progress pictures of the first two prototypes, but I got a few of the third and final one.

Meowboard

I recently acquired a long frame that I intend to use for future artist alleys. I've seen lots of people use fancy frames to display jewelry and they look so nice. I figure this would be idea for showing off my stuff too since it elevates the product and puts it in view. Let's be real, my table set up was terrible. Hopefully this will be more attention grabbing.

Frog and Friends

This is a frog. Does it look like a frog? It doesn't look like a frog. It looks kind of like a Matryoshka doll, in shape anyway. Kind of. The blue pins are there to mark where the eyes are going. It's a little silly looking.

"The mushroom of course!"

Been a while since my last update... I haven't been doing much, bad me! I really need to get stuff done...

Embroidered a mushroom onto a bow made from the left overs of hemmed jeans. It's kinda random. I need a better headband to slide it onto.

Silly Cat Dress Progress

Started on the cat dress Wednesday and nearly finished it. It was a long process of trying to remember how to do things as well as make things work since I didn't use a pattern or anything. It's super boxy because of that and I don't mind at all.

Pinning things down to get an idea of how I want it to look.

Silly Cat Dress

I recently got this silly cat printed fabric! It's ridiculous, tacky, kitschy, and super awesome. I'm going to make a dress out of it, similar to this Metamorphose dress:

It won't be exact since I don't know or trust my ability to make pintucks right now. But it's going to have a black square yoke and puffy cuffed sleeves. I don't think the bottom will be two tiered, but I might give it ruffles, maybe. Probably no ruffles on the yoke either, but I've already got some lace and ribbon for it. Hopefully it'll look okay.

My goal is to get this done today! Wish me luck.

Rose Kitty Pochette

Made a cat pochette using the dusty rose yarn for a swap on EGL. I think it turned out well.

Passion Kitty Charm

Inspired by the Rose Bunny Charm. Name comes from the color of the yarn. It's a silly name for the color really, but hey, I guess it helps with naming stuff. It was originally supposed to be a bear, but I couldn't get the ears rounded after I attached them! I was worried that I'd wasted yarn, but after pinching the ends, it was saved.
