Hi Rika.

My sewing is ok too. I really want to be really good at it like my mom but for some reason I can't. Lol I made 2 halloween costumes, one for each of my twins when they were 1 and the pants somehow turned out upside down. Don't even ask me how that happened. I'm still trying to figure that one out.

Yeah, I would love to be amazing at it too. I can't ever sew or cut straight. Usually all my seams are crooked, even when I try really hard to sew straight. xP

Upside down pants, huh? Not sure how that would happen either.
Sometimes I accidentally sew things on the wrong side of the fabric, so I have to pull all the stitches out and re sew everything.

I've done that before. Some of my stitches are crooked too. My problem is at times I sew too fast and I have a hard time controlling the speed of the machine. It's like my body wants to go fast but I want to go slow. I hate it.

it take alot of practice to get it. I had to learn it from a specific person because I'm left handed

Wow that is weird. But I guess being left handed it's alot different doing things.

Here is my pumpkin biscornu that I just finished yesterday:



I started my next one and it's a cute kokeshi doll. Plus I set this one and my red kitty biscornu up for sale on ebay. I'm hoping they both sell soon.

This is really exciting. I can now sell my works of art.

I would set up some of my regular pieces, but there aren't any that I would set up. I have a few of them that are finished and not done with, but who would want to buy a orange mori or a scene that is messed up of fish in the ground. I made a mistake on it, not like anyone can tell lol. Now if I sold my japanese fan, that would sell instantly and for alot, but I really want to keep that and give it to my husband for a christmas gift this year.

I have some that are done, that are hung up in the house, but not sure if there's any that I would want to sell. I guess I could look and see if there is. Which I might just do now.

Very cute biscornu! Have you thought about selling on Etsy?

Here are a couple things I've made. Just a baby toy and a dice bag. Click on them to see them better.

Those look really nice.

I would but we can't anymore. My husband tried selling somethings there and he sold 2 items, well both were received by the buyers and they left good feedback for him. Well etsy kept on sending him emails saying he never shipped an item and he did respond to them and told them he did and they left feedback for him already. Well just 2 days ago they sent another email saying they are closing his account for good because he never shipped an item he doesn't even remember ever having and it isn't listed on his list of things that sold. >.> Otherwise I would sell it there.

We have so many crafting things we now have to sell on ebay. We bought them dirt cheap and wanted to resell them online for extra income in the house. Now we have to set up a store on ebay and get them all set up there now.

Wow, that's really weird. o.O Nevermind then. xP I look at things there all the time, but have never used it to sell anything.

Yay for income! I need to do some more baby toys and try and sell them.

That's a cool idea.

I'm taking a picture of a different finished cross stitch piece I made and I think I'm going to sell it. It's 2 pandas sitting with the chinese characters for happiness going down between them.

Here is what it looks like:


Just uploaded the picture.

0-0 I wants it for my future apartment.

Hehe, thank you.

It's very cute. ^^ Did you design it yourself?

Thank you. I followed a chart.

I always follow a chart. I do have some software that would allow me to make my own designs. I haven't really used it yet, but I plan on.
