Zombie Peeps

It took me until the day before Easter to find green bunny peeps to make these and then I didn't have time to make them until today but it's fitting because Deadheads, an awesome Zombie comedy is showing at the Newport Film Festival.

Contest and Neat Blog

I found this blog called Pretty Little Paper Love she is having a giveaway for her 100th blog post, the giveaway ends 4/30. I think I might do the same when I hit 100 posts. I'm around sixty something right now.

ATC's

These are my first artsee ATC's. I'm still working on a third but they are a private swap between me and another woman. I'm kinda nervous because I'm not sure if they're good enough. ATC's can literally be any medium but I don't want to send something that doesn't compare to what I'm getting back. I'll take a picture of the third one and post it tomorrow. I'm hoping to get them mailed out tomorrow, her's are already on their way to me.

First ATC's

These are my first Artist Trading Cards. They are for a scrapbook group so I made them so they could be used in a layout. I plan to send them out tomorrow can't wait to see what I get back. For this trade there are groups of five and we make ten total then we get ten back including two of our own. My theme was Easter but each person has a different theme.

Scarf


This is a scarf I started a while ago. It is knit out of recycled Sari yarn that they get from women in India who collect the bits of Sari silk and pull it apart and then spin it into a beautiful yarn. Not the easiest yarn to work with though. This is a basic scarf that can also be used as a belt or headband.









Pictures Jeff Took

These are pictures Jeff took using my camera

I had Jeff take these to add to my SparkPeople gallery

Jeff's Hoodie Part Three

Finally got the rest of the pics from the hoodie repair.

I made this for dinner. It was a foil pocket with chicken breast, green beans, carrots and canned tomatoes that had basil, garlic, and oregano in them already. I was going to add potatoes but the ones we had weren't any good and I forgot to buy new ones.


New cuff

Edge of hood that I really wanted to repair but the edge I added was too heavy so it has to come back off

Jeff's Hoodie Part Two

Got two of the pictures to load before my internet decided that was enough of that.


These show the edge of the hood. On one side the string is about a half inch above the hole it's supposed to be at.
