Today, my boyfriend and I went to Little Tokyo, up in LA, and I got a couple more model kits, a LOT of origami paper, and a new wig for a costume I'm doing in August. I will be streaming the building of the models.

That sounds fun. What kind of costume is it?

A human version of a Transformers character.

I hope you will take pics when you are done. I am interested to see that.

it's mainly just a dress I have, plus a wig, some contacts, and some work with foam and resin for a prop.

Stupid cat is almost done! (In pics, tail isn't on, but in reality, it is I jist didn't take pics after attaching.) Just needs eyes sewn on!

KITTY OVO

that's adorable!

Just waiting to hesr back from the person on the correct eye color. In the pic I have they look like a light gold color, but I know lighting can effect the color appearance sometimes.

It looks so soft <3

It's not quite as soft as I hoped it would be, but it's pretty soft.

Still looks cuddly. Do they plan on it being a sit on the shelf sort of item or a comfort item?

I don't know. I'd make it the same either way, so I didn't ask. As the woman ordering it was a bit older (I'd estimate age in the 50's), I'd guess shelf decor, but who knows?

I have a bunch of stuff to embroider with now. :3 and a drop spindle with roving, and a couple nalbinding nals(needles). so I've quite the score.

That's such an adorable cat! :D

I've been meaning to get back into sewing.
My machine has been finicky and honestly, I don't have the patience nor attention span to try to figure out what's wrong with it.

I used to sew everything by hand before the machine and I think I did better by hand than the stitching that my machine does!

I've got some cloth pads I'm going to sew soon! Hopefully when I can afford some nice flannel and Terry cloth.

I find sewing by hand to be pretty relaxing. (So long as I have no deadline!)
I sewed my first cloth pads myself when I was 16. :D

Mine likes to whine when I use it for the first time in a while, but once it's done it tends to run smoothly
