Well, I've been up to quite a LOT (sewing wise). I tried out paper piecing, finally, for two Fallout themed wall hanging: I made a few thread catchers for my two machines (only took a photo of one though). I got my tattoo finished (the Ooogie Boogie wall hanging was given to my tattoo artist) I also started on an experimental piece which broke my brain trying to figure out how to do it in both/either Quilting Assistant and/or Electric Quilt. You can take a look at the guide I made to and what I have done so far. Here is a cute pic of my kitty to make it all okay.
I'll try to keep this short, but there are quite a few new things up on the site! First off, I edited the layout (at least if you are not on mobile) so that there isnt as much scrolling involved when searching for a pattern. The pictures are a little bit smaller now, but I think it easier to navigate. Second, I've put up Jacques LaLean and Ginger the Tap Dancing Spider up for the Beetlejuice cartoon blocks. They have a bit more embroidery/outlining than a lot of my other designs (particularly Ginger), but I think that is because of the way they are drawn (ie cartoon). I tried to make them without so much, and they just didn't look right. Also, I put up a Pumpkin from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I based the pattern on a restoration of an actual set piece, so it is pretty darn authentic! It is also a pretty intricate pattern, so if you want a challenge, feel free to try it. You can thank Burton's hate of straight lines for that! It is up for testing, so a...
I'm not dead, I swear! I actually have a bunch of stuff to share with everyone... so hold on to your hats! First off, one of my newer patterns has been tested. The updated pattern is up on the site. Teddy has also been submitted to Fandom-in-Stitches, so I hope it will be up there soon too. I've also caught the quilting bug myself... though I haven't yet taken the plunge into paper piecing (I know... I know... I will, I promise!) Here are some of my FOs! Two completed jelly roll lap quilts (patterns from my head) and four quilt-as-you-go stocking for my family. I also made myself a nice little shirt. And this mask (out of leather, it was a kit) for Halloween: I also got a nifty Instagram account...not sure how much I'll use it, but it exist. Oh, and this is also happening (but not finished at the time of writing this) If anyone doubts my love of The Nightmare Before Christmas... well, they can see how much I love that movie! So, as you can see, I've been a busy bus...
