An American Indian Free Spirit. Her name is Winter Dawn, and she is shown here with her faithful familiar, Wings-that-Whisper.

 

The dress is a very slight adaptation of this free pattern:

I used sport weight yarn and a size E hook, and eliminated one row on the yoke front and back. Plus, I flared the skirt more than the pattern called for by increasing 5sc every other row.

 

The pattern for the doll is available free on my blog at:

I woke up this morning with a migraine

and it sucked

migraines feel like death

and then I went to school late

and took a Geometry test

A delicious blend of triangles from my Fat Quarter Shop bundle and a few extra fabrics including some hoarded AMH fabrics. Made and completed for my husband for Father's Day 2013.

My latest Pocket Spirits in Victorian finery! From left to right are Felicia, Meghan, Catherine, Abby, and Rebekah. Their dresses are from the Annie Potter Presents leaflet "Victorian Darlings." I think it is out of print, but if you do a Google search you may find some used copies available.

 

Patterns for the doll, and some wearable creations of my own design, are available free on my blog at:

Enjoy!

The look when you find a bug in your Popsicle.

I made this block for the Portland Modern Quilt Guild's Jay McCarroll Habitat block challenge. All blocks submitted will become a chairity quilt. I was going for an atomic 50's look (at least trying to!)… an era that makes me think of my utopia-like fantasy neighborhoods where neighbors where neighborly, socialized, had BBQ's, kids rode bikes with playing cards snapped to their spokes with clothes-pins, moms wore aprons and made Jello... or maybe I'm just thinking of the Edward Scissorhand's neighborhood.

my model, having been unable to get away for our shoot the other day, swung by where i teach to say good bye and offered me this shot in the parking lot. there was no set-up, given the possible repercussions if anyone noticed, but it's a nice little hint of what could have been a very sensual shoot.

I found this bike, a 1985 Sears Free Spirit Sheffield three-speed for sale on Henry Ave in front of Olga's Travel Agency. Olga bought this bike in 1985 and hasn't ridden it in 6 years. She didn't know how much to sell it for, so we agreed on $35. I gave her the $25 that I had, promised to bring the ten next time I drove by, and I took it home. I expect to put new wheels and hubs on it, and generally make it lighter. It's got a 3-speed hub right now, but I'll probably make it a single.

The frame is in nice shape. The brakes are scary and the shifting is nonexistent (the cable is shot). I see new wheels, tires, hubs, cranks, ring, brakes, levers, and maybe bottom bracket it it's near future... As this comes to pass, I'll take pictures. Additionally, I'll post some detail shots in the next couple of days.
