following the pattern from here and tweaking a bit, girlwithoutfear helped me create this cute kitty! i <3 it.
i guess this was one of my first sewing lessons. very fun to make! i want to make more and create a mobile of cute kittens.
this would be a fun pattern to play around with, too! i could make just about anything. hey! i could make a mobile of friends or of cartoon characters! nifty!

i'm almost done with your commission, prettywendylady! i just need to add some white highlights and it'll be completed. and there will be prints on this! will post more on this soon.

silly me keeps putting off finishing her CAPE 3.0 report. bad kit!

and i'm almost finished with my first altered book.

progress on the altered book from this entry.
i'm almost done. i still have some blank pages to deal with and some pages to glue together.
alice was experimenting with her camera and volunteered to take the photos. thanks, alice!

i don't know what has happened to my camera. i saw it last saturday and haven't seen it since. 9.9 oy.
there are more pages that we didn't get photos of, but hopefully i'll get some of those soon.

this project has been one of the most therapeutic for me. i'm starting to get a feeling that i can do things again.

more pages soon.
