Yay, sewing! I really like the earrings with your favourite necklace, they're kinda kooky.

And the clothes you made! Wow, I'm totally in awe. I'd love to learn dressmaking. If only I could live in one place for more than a year, then I could get a decent sewing machine...

Bats! Thankyou so much for the bat, he's adorable! I agree with your mum, he does look like a kid. Must be the big head. :P *pets baby bat cushion* I have an awesome idea to batarang you in return... Hmm, shall have to think.

I really loved the necklace! I got the earrings the next day when I realized I had no earrings to go with it, and I *needed* them :P

I wish I could say I was learning dressmaking! but the teacher explains step by step what I'm doing and by the time I finish something I have no idea how it came to be, lol. I have the molds and everything and technically I can make molds for anyone, but man, it's really complex! Do you plan on staying on Perth/your current place for long? or are you looking to move someplace else?

Lol, the big headed Batty would be too cute in the hands of baby Helena! and he's so throwable! it's fun times! :D I will send it soon! I'll let you know!

You're too darn talented. I have, like, no marketable skills. :D

I love the Bat pincushions. Totally made of win.

Glad you had a good birthday!

[arch_schatten]

Lol, I am super slow at sewing! I'm a bit afraid of the machine :P it's a fun thing, though! I'm loving it! and you have marketable skills!! what about our porn emporium, QT??? we can't let the dream die!

The bats are mutating into cute, baby bats! I need to make them grimmer! Bruce would scowl at them :P

I did have a great time! it rained for the first time in the summer season (well, it's not summer yet, but bleh, at 40 C I don't care what season it is) and there were adventures and rock band! fun times :)

[quiet__tiger]

Sewing machines are definitely scary. I've mostly sewn by hand when I've needed to.

I know, we need to get on our porn emporium. Gotta get to Vegas...

Eh, Batman scowls at everything. Maybe he'd find them cute...

[vigilante_wake]

I love the fabric you picked out for your dress! It's so modern! Really, everything here is awesome, from the things you made to the messenger bag and the sewing box!

Baby Batman cushion is adorable! Baby Helena neeeds one! I can see Bruce babysitting her and setting her in a playpen in the Batcave with a squishy batarang.

I'm so happy you had such an awesome birthday! We will see each other soon, yessss...

Wait. Did you get a new bedspread?

[arch_schatten]

The dress is a lot of fun! I made some measuring mistakes because the widest part of my body are not my hips but about 7 cm lower and it's a bit tight there... not too bad, but it annoys me in an otherwise fun dress! I think it's kind of retro but because retro is back it looks less retro? lol

Baby Helena with a plush batarang nooo!! The squishy batarang needs to make a 'squeeek' sound. Only then would my fantasy be fulfilled :P OMG ALFRED DID IT I'M SURE! :D :D :D XD Okay. I'll stop this now. Bad, baaaad crack.

I did get a new bedspread! if a lighting impromptu trip happens, you will find I also have a new magical mattress! that's why I had to get a new bedspread, the mattress is too high and my old bedspreads wouldn't cover it. Comfy :)

OMG, Baby Bat pincushion is the cutest! *squees* It looks perfect for flinging at people, lol...

The black dress with the pink...underslip? (I don't know the right word!) looks so kicky! And the punk deco stuff is gorgeous! Sooooo nice!

*hugs*

[arch_schatten]

It is a perfect weapon! it can't hurt anyone, unless you poke them in the eye! very throwable :P Wake put the idea of baby Helena in a playpen in the Batcave playing with a plush batarang while Bruce babysits in my head and now it's all I can think about. Hehehe. Batarang'd!

I will start a purple dress next class! I can't wait! :D I think I'm getting better at the whole sewing thing! wooo!

[mithen]

I want Baby Helena being babysat fic, stat! :D

As a not-entirely-side note, what do you think Helena would grow up to be? Not another Huntress, that's too confusing. A new Catwoman? What did you have her as in your future fic with Damian?

I also support the idea of Cir-El being Clark and Selina's child! She looks a lot like Selina, doesn't she? I'd never noticed that... Cir-El really needs more love, because I have to say snuffing yourself out of existence is a pretty bad end. I've never actually seen the issues with her story in them, either!

[arch_schatten]

This 'Helena being babysat' thing is becoming a 'The Babysitter Series' thing. I hope you are proud.

I don't know about Helena! I want her to return to Selina, I don't like the idea of her growing up out of the fold, even if it's 'safer'. I mean, what could be awesomer than having Selina for a mom and Holly for an aunt and Bruce for a crazy uncle and Gotham? what about Gotham??? I think she would be the new Catwoman (she was Catwoman with Damian, indeed!) because.. I don't really think Huntress would hand her the mantle, and it doesn't even feel like a handable mantle, you know?

I would like to read Cir-El's story too, I have only read the wiki entry and her appearances in S/B, and.. that's not much at all. I rather like what I have seen of her, though!

*hugs* I'm really glad you had a good birthday! Yay! :D

Ooooh, pretty pretty jewelery! *wants* And... can I see the Bat necklace I made you? Hee!

I think your dress looks so awesome! Wow! *is very impressed* The Bat pincushions are so cute, awwww!! *flails*

[arch_schatten]

Yeah, the Bat necklace is there! X) he likes the baby bat cushions :P

The dress was fun to make! it took me less than a month (I only go to class twice a week, so that's.. about 6 or 7 hours?) but I am very slowwww and kind of stupid and I have to take out stitches a lot, lol. That and the class is very relaxed! but that still means it took me like 2 months to finish the black skirt, lol. Mroww...
