A fusing we will go
I just posted about Fusing Plastic Bags over on the PBRC. Last night, I took the plunge. I only messed up a few times. I can use about 4 bags per fusion session. I am using brown paper bag as the surface between the iron and the plastic. I have some promising pieces laying on [...]
Neck Pillows
I left my beloved neck pillow in Rhode Island. Instead of buying another one for close to 20 bucks, I decided to make my own for about 1/4 of the price. I bought some fabric (about a yard each off the discount rack), and a 2 dollar bag of stuffing:
And last night I started to [...]
Craft Blog Highlight: Stitching the night away
Loretta has a lovely craft blog that shows of fher cross stitching. There are lots of pictures of her work. I enjoy looking through all her projects. I have never had the patience to do any work smaller than latch hook. I am always impressed by how precise and beautiful her work is.

Silk – same as cashmere.
Malabrigo – too many people talk about [...]
Raglan progress
I am about 4 rows from the suggested bottom ribbing. I don’t know that I will put THAT much ribbing at the bottom. It looks like a good 6 inches of ribbing *blech*. I will see what it looks like in a few more rows. It has been modified heavily to meet my [...]
Loosely Cabled Fiasco
I have been too p.o.’d to tell you what has been going on with this shirt, or take pictures of it. I had to frog it down to nothing again. It was 6 inches too wide! OMG I didn’t think my gauge was THAT off. I redid the gauge and thought it would be okay. [...]
