crafting (and some sewing) and showing

Now is a good time for a potty break...there's a lot of pictures in this post.

It's been a busy week. I've actually made more than this. This is all I took pictures of though.

First, a fairy bendy for my neice. (Still need to make her a tiger...and maybe a boy bendy)

YEAH, I do! LOL! Usually it's doll clothes because I try things without making a pattern first. In fact, that jacket on the doll I posted pics of is pretty pretty carp-y imo. I meant for it to be a short sleeved camp shirt. But I have never made a camp shirt for humans or dolls so that idea was doomed from the start.

the sleeves ended up too long for a short sleeved shirt. And the collar is a big wonky. And the 2 sides of the front opening ended up slightly off...one is a bit longer than the other. So I made him a tank and called it a jacket. ROFL!

Unfortunately I have this personality flaw where if I'm not pretty good at something the first time I try it I'm likely to never give it a second try. So most things that are turning out carp-y need to be "fixed" immediately so that they are at least reasonable. I don't deal well with complete failure.
