Constructed, green and the mail

cutting table

Completed last night. With a little more geometry than we use on a daily basis, but we survived. it is a cutting/craft table. The coolest part? The top is a cutting surface that I can use the roller or an exacto or whatever on. How freaking cool is my husband?!!! And it is huge and tall. I can hardly stand not to be using it but the ideas are coming so fast I haven't had time sort them out...

All little plants from our local place and all the dishes they are in from our favorite gigantic thrift store. How cool is that. Green things make me happy, both plants and recycled items.

Cat dish

Speaking of recycled items- what cat doesn't deserve to eat out of a footed cut glass dish? I found this at the thrift store as well. And since we are down to one cat, I thought it might be time to downsize from the gigantic, ugly bowl we had down.

Mysterio

And finally, this came in the mail from a cousin in Philly. I am hoping it means this child is coming with money. :-P

Have a happy Sunday.

Wow, that table rocks! The possibilities are endless... I absolutely hate sliding fabric around on my little cutting mat when I need big pieces, so I'm a bit jealous. =)

Also, that t-shirt is hilarious. I wonder what the others say.

I wore your apron at my friend's house tonight. When I told her you made if for me, she asked if she could commission you to make her one. Would you be interested in doing such a thing?

You really should open an Etsy shop! Your sewing projects are always so awesome!

Robinia

 Becky and I set out to make a couple of Robinia sweaters in mid-March, which took two months to complete.  Just yesterday, I wove in the ends and wore it.  I'm afraid to block it.   Specs: The Robinia has been making the rounds.  I couldn't see buying the tons of yarn it would take to create the three-strand yarn the designer used, but Becky found this chainette cotton blend, Cantata , that seemed perfect. I've recently realized that making the exact color combination that I liked in the first place is not a bad thing.  It means I get the garment I really loved in the first place. Mods: I made a size XS/S even though I could have made the M according to the designer but everything I knit comes out bigger than expected, even when I gauge swatch right on target.  (I think the blocked weight of the garment just is so much more than the swatch is what causes this, but it's just a theory.)  I didn't wrap any of my floats and it remains to be seen if I'll regret tha

Happy 200 posts to me! I can't believe that two years ago I started writing this because I was wanting to craft and be part of the amazing crafting/blogging community I had discovered. These amazing , vivacious artists , mothers and creators . Everyday I would read their blogs and be blown away by beautiful pictures of wonderful things that they were creating. And they had other jobs like being mama or owning a shop. I was inspired! And then we moved into this wonderful house and a month later Senor gave me a sewing machine. I was floored because it meant he believed I could really create something. My family and friends have always been supportive but this was somehow different. Senor has this almost magical ability to take my ideas and help turn them into reality. Okay- before I diverge and wax on endlessly, let us just say, "And the rest is in my archives!" :) I am also proud to present little a! My new business! For this moment I am only taking special o
