oooohhhhhhhhh I *just* finished a swap and was gonna take a lilttle break hrmmmmmm
I'll think about it (and then most likely be sending a questionnaire after work!)

OMG! My SO loves Binding of Isaac, he has probably put just as much time into it.....I tried to play it but his tears were making me sad! I am really sensitive about cute cartoony things for some reason, but i guess that's the point?? I can't wait until he gets home so i can show him!

SO I've received my package from Fancybutch, and I LOVE IT!



Here is *most* of the package..I am saving my fave to show last...
I like how the canvas looks like Peach is kind of lost in a castle....I wish she wasn't such a ditz! I imagine her as being much cooler haha



Here we have a closeup of a Noby Noby Boy themed box (Noby Noby Boy is a weird little PS3 "game"..it's hard to explain, so here's a link! Fair warning, it is noisy http://o--o.jp/o--o.jp/  still confused? Yep, that's about right!) and a little journal.

Inside the box are some beads in Noby Noby colours



AND NOW my favourite item!




A hand-painted Animal Crossing messenger bag!!!! This picture does not do it justice, Fancybutch did such a good job on this! I am really excited to wear it to work

Everything together:



Thanks again Fancybutch! You. Are. Awesome.

LOVE the Chocobo embroidery!! All of your stitchery looks fantastic

Thank you for the kind words everyone! Yer makin me blush The Yoshi is what I was working on when the tutorial 404'd halfway through....I pretty much had a heart attack. BUT the magic of Google Cache saved me!

I know what you mean with the see-thru amis.....the secret is to use a hook that is almost too small, it keeps the spaces in between stitches tiny! I used I think just regular worsted weight yarn for Yoshi and a 3.5 mm hook.

I'm so glad you like the bag too, I was stressing over the lining fabric! And I make the straps extra long because there is NOTHING worse than a tote bag in your armpit.

The Pikachu purse is so very cute! And those gym badges are awesome!! I would seriously wear one on my blazer lapel :3

Fancybutch I am so glad you like your package! I liked doing the hoopla (I watched A LOT of Star Trek TNG during its creation lol) and I now have visions of joining other Hoopla swaps and having a bunch all lined up on my wall awww yisssssss!

EEEE! Seeing the packages is making me really excited

LOVE the Vincent amigurumi and the hand painted tote!

Mine is on its way to fancybutch! YAY!

JUST finished the last item!! I am going to be packing it all up shortly, and then mailing it out tomorrow on my break

I finished BOTH of the really time consuming items I was afraid wouldn't be done in time tonight!! I have just one more thing in mind I wanna make and then I'll be ready....although it *will* still be finished juuuuuust in time haha
