Oh yeah

You know what. Sometimes blogs get made. Sometimes they die. And sometimes they sporadically come back like zombies.

And it's summer time. And you know what? I love making stuff.

Wanna see what I made last Christmas!?
At first you'd say "That's just a stocking." But. But! This was my FIRST adventure with the sewing machine!

Mind you, I don't really like the beast. Kinda scares me and makes me think it wants to eat my hand.... But I've seen Dea sew enough at this point in time to think that I could do it. It's like in geometry class when you had to make a flat layout that would fold up into a 3 dimensional solid.

And it took me a good half hour to make the silly cuff! I crochet, they way you make it is the way you sew it on. But in actual sewing you have to start with it outside in and all kinds of shinanigans. But I didn't hit Betsy (The sewing machine) which I think was good anger control.

I made it for my boyfriend because his mom threw his out.

I'm the best girlfriend ever :D
