i received my lovely Alice poppet from JennyThor!!



doesn't she have the sweetest face?? I am so thrilled, as I love Alice in Wonderland so much!
And the clothes are very clever. I love how soft they are!  And she made underpants, too!

And shoes!




and she has mega hair, just like I like!


thank you so much!

So, for the Labyrinth swap round 5, I sent my partner BoomerBile a mask (if you've seen the movie, you of course can't forget the ballroom scene!) Although it was slightly damaged in transport, I was so pleased with this, and she was able to fix the tip of the beak that broke.

It started with a cheap dollar store gold mask, which I paper machied over, painted, feathered, and decorated.

sorry about the delay - major internet troubles.

When i saw the package i knew there would be wall art, which made me super happy. I opened it backwards to myself so i wouldn't spoil the surprise - and this was on the back!



what in the world could those be, you're asking. Well, I'll show you -


garden markers - Fallout style! AND, cause I'm so lucky



a VAULT-TEC STAMP!! sooo awesome! I'm no longer having a signature - just this stamp!

Then I unwrapped and turned around my wall art, to see:

THE FRONT GATES OF ORGRIMMAR!!


It's needle felted and SUPER COOL!

Thank you so much, PerfectlyBohemian!! This was such a great package!

Prepare yourselves for the awesome. Seatbelts on? Helmets strapped on? Good!

First - a phenom tshirt ! can you smell the awesome?


AND - it has our family motto on the back!


Some lovely artwork for my craft room! (SQUEE!)


And some seriously tuff earrings - I cannot tell you how much I like these - subtle, and true to theme and all kinds of AWESOME - and a sweet marble reminiscent of the glass globes.


And a cool bonus - a book to "write my adventures" in - this was so neat - Boomer and I have a similar esthetic, and I really love this.



Props to a wonderful partner!

Well, I know that there's a licensed set of wrestling plush called "Brawlin' Buddies". My version have been in the planning for a year, and I had no idea the official ones were being manufactured. I just wanted to save my couch pillows from my son.

I've made four, but they're all wrapped now. I only have a pic of the one with the worst facial hair ever grown: Seamus

Well, seeing as how bubblegum_phoenix can wait till doomsday, and my package will never get to her, it's best that I take negative feedback (because my sending receipt went who knows where) so she can get an angel! She asked me to show pics of what I had made (twice) so here we go:

A kimono



A Hogwarts uniform





A Quidditch uniform


Superman tshirt (and a Blue Sun corp, not pictured)


A copy of an awesome book (which has part of Watership Down for pages)



A blanket chest with a blanket



A Jayne Cobb hat and a Shiny mug


A mug for my partner



Canada magnets and pens



a Llama pin for my partner


some Pullip sized food


and that was the works.

So I broke down and bought this pattern of Etsy. I HATE buying patterns, but I was quite sure I'd spend more time drafting a pattern than it would be worth to me.

I'm making six of these little buggers, two for a co workers' granddaughters, and the others for friends' kids.

I made the doll, two outfits, and jammies for each of them. No socks or shoes, cause I just can't fit it into my schedule atm.

iTunes - you harsh bitch. However it's now up and running - so the pictures from my awesome Angel!!


The bag that I WAS going to give to my daughter, but needed to keep because it's perfect for me. Besides, DD got this:



which she's using as her purse, and is perfect for her. We were out on the bus when I took that pic; she loves having something that isn't as confining as a purse, and is different from all her friends.


this bracelet came with two others, which are in DD's room somewhere, so I didn't get a pic of those. I put this on and haven't taken it off. the others have red cord, and are attached to a heart and one to a circle. The closures look like this:


this was such a cool package - i am so pleased with what my angel sent to me.

Thank you, Averia!

I received a couple of days ago, but had some issues with iTunes and my cell phone. They are resolved now, so I introduce my lovely package from the_canadian_lynx:

first, every thing was packaged in this sturdy blue tote with 10's hallmark:

Thank you, Lynx, for all your hard work! It was a  great swap and you were an awesome partner!
