Bi-monthly update

Hello there, internet. Once again, I've neglected this blog in favor of reddit, spoonflower, hulu, and twitter. After working what seems like all the time, I don't usually have the energy to get creative with words for you. I can barely sentence! :sigh:

Nonetheless, here are some short sentences which tell you what I've been up to and what I wish to be up to. That was the longest sentence in this post.

Here's this: I want to make many! It looks wonderful and fragile!

Here's this fabric I designed! I like Russian nesting dolls a lot and wanted to make some fabric that looks similar to my Matryoshka tattoo.


I am so in love with Spoonflower and its infinite possibilities. Maybe I'll actually purchase something from them larger than a swatch sometime.. So far, I've been really happy with the quality of prints they offer, I just can't currently justify paying $18/yd. You can see my shop here if you like. If you have never perused this site, I highly recommend it. Just don't look at the prices. They recently revamped the site (it's particularly noticeable on the shop profile) and I love it even more now!

Lastly, here's a dinosaur crochet baby hat pattern I found recently. Talk about falling hard for something. This hat is FREAKING ADORBS. Below is a crappy phone-shot of mine. I've got multiple pregnant friends in my life right now and they're all getting one of these badboys.


I think that's enough for now. See you in 2 months!

Every post seems to start out about the same, so I've decided to start out this and possibly future posts with something a little different. Probably a little random because it tends to be my style. First, random: Remember Marriedtothesea ? It's been a couple years since I followed this webcomic, but today we reunited, however briefly. Their comics along with the original Toothpastefordinner , range from probably-too-smart-for-me to omg-hilarious. In any case, here's a recent gem: I am still unsure of how to properly give credit to authors of sites and images without "hotlinking". So I have not linked this image. However, I hope it's pretty evident if you've read anything above: this ain't mine, it's Marriedtothesea.com's. Now on with the update.. Another "art scarf" made while I was on vacation.. Yes, it's a little wonky, no judging. That's a geometric interior pocket you're seeing. Finally onto the most recent addition:

I’m not what you think I am I’m the king of Siam

Well well, we meet again. I don't have much of an update tonight because I'm moving tomorrow A.M. and almost everything I want to play with is packed. I'm actually quite anxious about this move, though I'm sure it will go fairly smoothly. Utilities are all turned on (new house), the house I'm leaving is in relatively good shape (though I'm sure the panic will set in when I wake up tomorrow..), and I totally fixed the hole I tore in the paint in my bedroom. Still, despite everyone that's helping me and the excitement to move to the new house, I still kind of feel like I'm doing this on my own. Oh, and I haven't heard back from the future landlord yet regarding when I can pick up the key, which scares me a lot little. Think happy thoughts.. In any case, not much crafting or sewing going on right now, I've resigned to playing DS and trying to imagine how much I can fit in that box over there. Have I mentioned how much this moving has consumed me? I&

Tonight the neon answers flare, Occasionally we stop and stare past tiny paintings, painted where the clouds were wrong,

With killer stares and sideways frowns, In keeping with, the universe all upside down, twice (twice, twice) And broken legs and arms in slings, You cry secretly, you won't wear my diamond rings why (why, why)? A billion cares, a thousand stings we lie frequently, Choose the chapter where he starts Fight (fight, fight) Two millionaires have bought this town and changed everything. I found you in a lost and found, Why why why! -Architecture in Helsinki, "Tiny Paintings" Random update! I've obviously been out of blogging for a while. Since July, I've gotten a full-time job at Christie Cookies here in Nashville. I get to do their graphic design in addition to their regular business, so I've kept myself pretty busy for the past several months. Here's one thing that I did complete out of no where the other day. A good friend of mine inspired me with a beautiful painting of 64 doors so I thought I'd give it a try. But naturally with robots. And on a miniature
