For Heather's Speckled Egg Halloween Hat swap. I sewed this hat by hand, and decorated it with net, lace, ribbon and one of the big bottle cap cats I've been working on. I have a new appreciation for the millinery arts -- it's very fine hand-work, for sure.
There are two sparkly felt roses at each side of the bottlecap decoration -- I am not sure how well you can see those in this picture. I am just really pleased with how this came out, and hope my partner likes it! She sent me a tremendous, wearable hat! You can see it here:

BTW, that paper in the background is some of the beautiful flocked spiderweb paper I bought while I was in California. After I left I was kind of sad I hadn't bought more, then over the weekend I found two more sheets at our local Ben Franklin craft store!
I liked the new tall body, but felt the sculpt was too Soccer. So I went looking for a new head and, luckily, found Denim Dazzle at Tuesday Morning and Voila!
kawaii-ness for $20 with a few extras not pictured~ she received them so here i am posting this. hehe.
Here is my piece for Ponyinrope for the PQ Music Swap. A bit of, (ahem...) suggestive blackwork embroidery, and some lyrics from the Radiohead song "Nude".
Heres a WIP peek of my project for the upcoming Coraline mystery Box Swap. I figured the other Mother doesnt use a sewing machine so am handstitching the entire piece...

This is me at "The Corner" swapping ten new condoms (in foil) for dinner. That's practically a lifetime supply during the zombie apocalypse.
The guy at the bar is Jason, who was pretty excited about the whole deal :-)
Okay, to be honest, my swap-receiver got this with pink stitching, but i forgot to photograph that one. Made this one at the same time for the lovely and talented ms jackson.
I always wanted a AA Happy Family mom--but could never find her at a reasonable price. BUT I found a Teen Skipper doll and began looking for a posable body.
Fashionista was not a match, but SIS Kara was!
We made a swap with gofenshefer and yesterday arrived her necklace! It is made of natural beads which grow on a plant called in russian Bussennik. So happy to own such unique piece ))
ps. Trough the swap, we found that we lived in the same district in Riga 16 years ago!
In my childhood I was often in this forest where she makes the photos of her gorgeous items.
I just finished these up for my swap partner...I hope you like them. They are pretty random! Those are the most fun to make, I hope they will be as easy for you to use.
I made the little pouch from the legs of some jeans I cut off at the beginning of summer...I knew that I would be able to use them for something...I think I will be making more of these!
I was so excited to make something for Christy in a recent swap. I knew immediately that it had to be something involving a Badass Lady, as Christy both is one and admires them. I remembered she was a fan of the show "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles," which starred Summer Glau as a badass lady terminator sent from the future to protect John Connor (OR WAS SHE???).
I downloaded a photo of Glau-as-terminator, traced it onto some Robert Kaufman Quilter's Linen at the light table at school, and stitched her up using kettle-dyed blue thread. Mr. Frick's contribution was the idea of one red eye, which I think really makes it. One of her big lines is "come with me if you want to live," so I stitched that next to her. I framed her in the hoop using a circle of felt for stability and backing her with a sweet, but dark, Anna Maria Horner floral.
Yay!
