New Year...New Post!

 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 busy bee, even if it doesn't look like it. I have another 2 lap quilts in the works, one which the fabric is all cut out and I just have to get it started.

What Have I Been Doing?

 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.

Lots of Updates

Image
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

Patterning Update

Hi Everybody! Hope this week has treated you well. I am very close to finalizing the pattern for Maggot. I *hope* to post him here this weekend and get him submitted to Fandom in Stitches shortly after that. The tweaks I did to the pattern really didn't change much, but I think the revised construction order will make putting him together much easier. I haven't had much time to work on my other projects this week, which is a bit of a bummer. Sorry. Not my sewing machine... but same model I hope by the time I get home, my new old machine (White Rotary Series 77) will be up and running. My husband was supposed to fix the table while I was at work today so that I can start using it this weekend. I hope. We shall see. Some of the holes that hold the screws for a bracket that supports the weight of the machine while it is in use are stripped (it came to use that way) and needs to be repaired. It is a small fix, but it needs to be done before I can start learning how to use it
