A little of this, a little of that

Feeling MUCH better today. Brain fog is almost gone. I poked at my remix a bit, "wrote" 500ish words on PL, and made a jellyfish! I had the base already done, so all I had to do was whip this little guy out.  Eeeee. The balloony body part is made from Angelina fibers and the tentacles are just metallic thread that I quilted underneath (if anyone is ( Read more... )

This first part of PL feels like a big rehashy slog, but I think once I get through it, I will feel much better. I have realized I want to intensify certain things too, so that should hold some of my interest:D

Progress is just great, especially when it involves me feeling functional again!

That's so pretty! I love the black background and the metallic threat.

Thank you! I am so excited about how the jellyfish turned out. I have been wondering how to do one for a while, but until I got the Angelina last week, I was kind of at a loss. Even dh approves of this one:D

I love the things you make! They're all very striking and considered, love the way the theme and materials mesh x Well done on all the words!

alkjasdlkj Every time you compliment me on one of my little quilts, I die (in a good way). Thank you so much bb. It really means a lot to me that you like what I'm cranking out. It's funny because I don't really think of them as "considered" but I was trying to figure out how to do a jellyfish for weeks and it finally jelled when I got my hands on the right materials. I think there are probably multiple awesome ways to do jellyfish and I hope to explore more of those in the future too.

Thanks! <3 <3 <3 Lovely to see you out and about.

Yeah, things are better. I'm hoping this leads to actual productivity... wish me luck! It's a long weekend here, with Monday being a public holiday so it's a possibility I'll actually finish stuff. *GASP*

Looking forward to more jellyfish! <3

Yay!!! Oooh, lucky girl. I wish I had a three day weekend, although yesterday was a snow day and the kids disappeared for quite a bit, so I got sewing things done and that felt very good.

:D Sea creatures with tentacles are the best to play with. I'm beginning to understand the fascination <3

That is sooo cool!! I really love the way the metallic thread looks, and the feathery texture to the body. Also, that strip of fabric you used on the bottom is PERFECTION. Kudos on this one bb!

Doing some writing, inching my way toward a finish on my remix. Hoping to have it done tomorrow.

Thanks! I'm ridiculously excited about this guy. I feel like I've been saying that a lot lately. I loved the black squid too.

YAY! If you need any help, give a shout. I'm mostly around tomorrow. <3
