The Sewing Life Alchemist

So, I didn't get to see Kerli's interview/performance on the Dj Rossstar show....and I haven't been able to watch the video of it either. :/ My ears have been hurting me so bad the last few days that I've barely been able to keep the ice off of my neck, much less try to stick ear buds in there. :/ Today was my second day on antibiotics though, so hopefully it won't be hurting as badly tomorrow.


I've been sewing my ass off today, trying to take my mind off of it. I had a big, plastic duffel bag that was for shower/beach stuff, but I never used it - so, I turned it into my sewing case! :D I made two big pockets to go on the side (one had smaller pockets on the front,) out of my LBHS After Prom t-shirt. :) Now I have some place to put all of that elastic and stuff without having to sort through it.


I finally finished watching FullMetal Alchemist....and I'm glad I didn't finish it until the second season came out. They left it WIDE the fuck open. xP But, the problem is....the first 10 or so episodes of the second season are a review of the first season. So, we we're sitting there going "WTF? Are you sure this is the second season?" xP He finally had to skip through the episodes (while my eyes were closed,) to make sure. xP


Anywho, off to watch a little Family Guy before I head off to bed. Hopefully, I sleep throughout the night tonight. That would be nice. :)

Creative

Today's been a pretty good day! We were running errands all morning, but afterwards, we were having fun and hanging at the house with Shaggy. We ended up going through pretty much all of the music on my laptop. xP


Afterwards, I went to work for Nana - which wasn't so bad for once. NO customers came in, and only a few people called, so I pretty much spent the whole time organizing her buttons. She said I could keep all but the shirt buttons. :D She also gave me some ribbon, lace, elastic, snaps, zippers and even bought me a bottle of loose, silver glitter on her way back. :) As soon as I got home I started decorating the beanie baby change purse I made, and she turned out BEAUTIFULLY!! This is probably the third thing I've handmade, and I'm really impressed with how well I did! :D I've been thinking about making stuff like this and then selling them somewhere around here - maybe Happy's when it warms up? I've got a whole bunch of beanie babies that I'm never going to play with again - aside from decorating them if I do intend to sell them!


I just went downstairs to show Mike's mom, 'cause I thought she'd get a kick out of it....and she liked it so much, she gave me one of her beanie babie to make her one! xP


Well, I'm off to start that - probably going to have to rip up another pair of pants to get a zipper for it. xP
