I'm back from an (unintentionally) long break from blogging. But, I come bearing a new pattern: a car! What have I been up to this past month-or-so? Well not too much, actually. It's been fairly relaxing and chill. I ended up being completely blind sided by an excellent series of books that I am now… Continue reading Back with a Car

Pillow Sham Tutorial
Last week I posted about my pillow shams that I sewed out of absolutely amazing Amy Butler fabrics. I'm totally in love with them. As with most of my obsessions, I have the overwhelming urge to share it with everyone! So (sew), it's tutorial time! Now this is my first sewing pattern tutorial, and it'll… Continue reading Pillow Sham Tutorial

Happy Face Toy began when I decided to crochet a super quick toy for the kitties, hoping that they would play with it occasionally. Never could I ever have predicted the extent to which Happy Face Toy would be… Continue reading The Happy Face Toy
Domo Arigato, Pierrot
I have a new thing lately. And, of course, it entirely involves crochet. What is it?

It may sound complicated, but it's really quite intuitive and fun!… Continue reading Domo Arigato, Pierrot
Holy Hand Grenade with Pseudo Instructions
A little while ago, I was involved in a really fun Monty Python-themed swap on Craftster (I wrote all about it here) and one of the things I made for my partner was a Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch! Well, I didn't exactly write down the pattern as I went, but I more or less… Continue reading Holy Hand Grenade with Pseudo Instructions
