Found a Shawl at a thrift store. But I don't wear shawls.

DETAILS:
While out thrifting I came across this yellow embroidered shawl, and hot damn I couldn't stop myself. It was whispering to me. What was it saying? 'Drink some wine and make something. Ignore your responsibilities'. And that's just what I did. My electricity might be off, but my fashion is ON!

My shirt pattern comes from an old shirt that I deconstructed. Honestly the easiest and cheapest way to get a pattern. I cut along each seem, take mental notes (and promptly forget them, due to the wine), and boom! Pattern. I recommend tracing it onto some butcher paper. I don't know why, but like my old manager says, "extra work is fun. But don't feel joy. Joy is for the elite."

Unfortunately there was no way to match the patterns symmetrically due to the nature of the shawl, and my own laziness and impatience. There are some construction mistakes (mostly unevenness and symmetry) that I wish I'd corrected but if we're talking past regrets and mistakes, that one doesn't even make the list.

Total time was roughly 4.5 hours of sewing, or roughly 6 episodes of the show 'Carrie', that are confusing because you're sewing and not paying attention to the plot, and your husband gets frustrated because you keep asking questions about what's going on with the 'Psychic Laura Ingalls Wilder', and also because there's a Singer Heavy Duty buzzing away on the other side of the living room, but you refuse to take it upstairs because you simultaneously want to spend time with your loved one and also completely ignore him in pursuit of crafting.

I don't know exactly what the fabric is, but it feels and looks like a Gaberdine. I started with maybe 2ish yards of the fabric and 3/4s of a bottle of wine and used both in their entirety for this shirt.

Made from books, magazines, and random promotional mail :-) I tried to include lots of our favorite things, places we’ve travelled, and inside jokes ! It’s sort of messy because it was my first larger sized one but I had a lot of fun making it and I love how bright and colorful it is :-)!!!

Peggelino Sprinklehelm was once a tiny harbour pup who lived for ice‑cream festivals. During a chaotic summer storm, he slipped on a fallen scoop, crashed into a crate, and wound up with his trusty wooden leg. Later, a misfired sprinkle cannon crowned him with the splattered scoop he still wears proudly. Now he roams the harbour, one leg, two cones, and a forever‑sticky helmet — the sweetest little hero in town.

Mother and Baby Nursing Paper Cut

I am a fulltime nursing mom of a 3month old baby and I finally found my creative mojo back to create this papercut. I am thrilled with the outcome and cozy vibes. I could really put my emotions in this one after these past 3 crazy months. Are there nursing moms out there with more ideas that show the beauty or struggles of nursing? I'd already love to work on a new idea.

I used thin carton. I lifted some parts with sticky cushions (what are they called??) for a bit more depth.

I actually made three but this one is the first one completed, on a deadline as I intend to give it to a friend for a significant birthday.

I wanted to make a nice piece of furniture and practice some woodworking skills but I don’t have much space at the moment until I can rebuild my dead shed so came up with this idea. I wanted it to be nice, I had a plan to create curved corners for a unique look. I repurposed as many materials left over from other jobs as I could, I thought I only had enough to make two but I got three! I used pine furniture boards for the bodies, the block corners are leftover staircase spindles on two and some slices of oak worktop on one (that one I’m keeping for myself!)

It actually sounds really good! Surprising amount of bass for its size plus I added a slap corner and you can turn the snare on or off. I’m not musical myself but I wanted something to tap along on while my friends jam so don’t feel left out. I just need to decide if the design warrants a strap of some sort or carry handle - let me know if you have an opinion on that

It’s been great to just pour some creativity into something, I needed that!

This geometric Black Prism Cat mask is entirely origami made from paper. I built the low-poly structure with cardstock and added holographic vinyl tape on the facets for the prism effect. The light-catching panels shift color depending on the angle, and I’m really happy with how it turned out.

The pastels are a different type of yarn (baby yarn) than the Aran. They have different elasticity which is why it came out a funky shape. Lessons learned! I use it daily as my lumbar pillow for my office chair.
