Study Goat

Took a few hours, just found a stencil of a goat and stitched away, so again, no pattern. I really need to start making patterns. For Steve, to make sure he writes his dissertation. Study Goat will kick his arse.

I love Riz...

So much I made him this xstitch of a shitty band that he inexplicably loves. Played it by air, no pattern. Hopefully no one would want one anyway!

Pin Up Girl

A pin up girl xstitch from City. Took fucking ages!

Bogan stitch

Made for Steves 23 birthday, because he is rad. Fucking killed my hands/spine getting it done in time. No pattern, just played it by air, hence the wonkyness.

I think I may just stop updating my LJ. No one posts over there anymore, and the whole point of it was to keep in touch with old friends. But who knows. I don't know if I wanna put my boring rants on this, so perhaps it's good to have a place for them to go where no one reads them.
Anyway, we will see. I have a exam tomorrow, but I also have a broken finger on my right hand. So the exam should be fine; it's on the history of warfare, but the writing of two essays with a broken finger should be interesting. I guess I could get help, but that aint my style yo.
I signed up for my papers next semester. I'm doing Blood and Body, Anglo Dutch history, German film, and sexual histories. They all look pretty rad. So I'm pretty excited about it all.
Sigh. I need to eat. Ciao Cats.

Birthday fun times

For bean's first birthday, I am making him a quilt after his old clothes. Because I sort of forgot he was premature, I had in my mind his due date, I ran out of time. So I decided to make him a bucket of birds for his actual birthday. There are a dozen of them, they all have bells in them, and are all different materials. They are adorable, I found the pattern somewhere, but as the case with me most of the time, I forgot where. I also made him a max costume. I can't find many photos of the birds, but he sure loved the bucket.
Bean had a great birthday, and was thoroughly spoilt. Thanks everyone for everything. Check out Adrians blog for more photos.

Wild things, dresses and quilts.

Beans where the wild things are costume is almost done, just needs a tail and crown. His quilt is about halfway done, heres hoping I can get it done in a week. And I recently whipped up a cherry print dress with xstitched heart detailing, for my friend Mel's little girl Seirra Cherries 2nd birthday. Forgot to take photo, will try get one of Mel.
I have been neglecting my blogs of late; Bean has awful flu and may need to be hospitalized for dehydration, I'm stressed about missing uni, and have exams in a few weeks. Plus I have had flu myself! But will get some photos up soon, and do a better blog entry.
