Abbeerroad - love the HG bracelet - where did you find that nifty hummingjay charm?

Thanks! I made it by gluing a bird (sparrow) charm (connector ring cut off and edges filed) to the round end of a clasp finding.  I used E6000 to glue.

Abbeeroad: Wow!! I thought it as a purchased charm too. Very nice!

Beautiful stuff ladies  sorry for not giving individual accolades but everything posted is alwasy great to see 

I finished knitting my cardi today, I still have to sew in all the loose ends (and there are soooo many!) and add buttons before I can say it's complete and show you all.

I started a crochet scarf at lunch today using a chart!!  I was amazed how much easier it is than reading the instructions!  I know it is too warm to wear, but I had the yarn in my stash and I am going to destash as part of my spring cleaning...

k-star--a cardigan is on my Life List for knitting...I have about six more projects to complete before I leave this earth!

Ack, I meant to comment on the raygun!  Its super cool.  Waggonsweet, I also love your quilt.  I think it is quite lovely. I like the addition of the tree.

The ray gun is so clever!! I've seen zombie versions before but never air ship pirates !

I also really like the metal stamped bracelet! I just ordered a set of metal stamps from amazon and I can't wait to play with them!!

I'm behind on posting my projects. Most have been for swaps so I have to keep them hush hush.

I suddenly have a TON to post! I just finished my drawing 2 class and this is (most) of the result.

These are origami butterflies done in pastel. It took me FOR.EV.ER. But I'm happy with the results, so... worth it, I GUESS... lol


Self Portrait in black and white colored pencils. This is apparently the face I make naturally, which made it easy to not change my face as I drew.


Skeleton still life in pastel.


(And the rest I'll post as thumbnails, because I could take up far too much space.)

Drapery in charcoal


Reproduction in pastels

I also made a dreamcatcher out of reclaimed materials (a bangle, broken earrings, etc.)


Flower hair clips.


Aaaand a necklace made from an old french book page and a circular piece of glass I found in a light fixture we were trashing. I was so excited to wear this today


And that's "all" for now! ^.^

nicole I love the hairclips and the skeleton still life is my fave drawing.

My swap partner just received so I can post the coupon organizer I made. It also has a button on the back so you can hook it in the "open" position over a shopping cart handle/seat back if you want to.



I also made an owl/wood bead necklace that I almost couldn't send her, but I forgot to take pics so have to wait until she can email me a pic so I can post it.

Fantastic artwork, nicoleburdsall.  And nice organizer, Eclectic Dreamer. 

I finally finished some curtains that have been in my to do pile for over a year.  Nothing fancy just simple panels.


And I've been remaking some x-large shirts into maternity tops for my sister. 
Here's one...I think the elastic band may be too low...I might try to make it higher but am worried how that would look with the end of the button placard being below the elastic.  Any ideas?


Here's another.  This one I pretty much took a mens 3xl and just used the fabric and recut it to follow a maternity shirt pattern I had.  I think the only seam I kept was the hem on the sleeves.
