Leopold, the ever helpful, lying in my lace.

I take sewing very seriously.
New bed spread!

Osky's Birthday

Yesterday was Mikki's cat Oscar's Birthday, and it seemed only appropriate to make him some toys. I made him catnip toys a couple months ago made out of felt, and it seemed to be a rather traumatic experience for Mikki, watching him devour them in seconds. This time, I made them out of upholstery fabric.






This was a reject bunny that I made. I left and came back only to find that Leopold had discovered it... covered it in his saliva... and was working on ripping it to shreds...


which he eventually succeeded at. But I will say proudly that it took him much longer than most.

little things i've been working on

here are some sketches i was doing with the machine- the seagulls and the two women- I really enjoy doing that


A cat for Mikki, whose tail I can't stuff....
I bought this really pretty green lace at Joanns in the sale rack, and I made
this flower out of it. Then... I wore it.





Oh, you know, a bird.
baby booties!
