Finally

I finally did it. I finally used my Yudu. After ruining one sheet of emulsion (actual half a sheet) I figured it out and did it.

It's definitely not a quick process to get everything set up. But the printing was damn quick. I'm proud of my first image.

Hopefully this will motivate me to do more in the coming weeks & get my etsy shop hopping.

My new toy

I recently added yet another toy to my toolbox. A Yudu Screen Printer. It's out of the box & just begging to be broken in.

Alas I'm in a quandary of what to make first. I have a couple of mock ups created and a few more ideas floating around in my head but nothing I need to make. So it's going to hang out for a little bit.

I'll post pics as soon as I create something with it.

2008 craftyness

Well 2008 wasn't a total bust. I did start sewing again.

My goals for 2009 are to make (and sell?) more of my crafts & start sewing more of my own clothes.

Simple and to the point.

W.I.P.s

I have a bunch of sleep masks cut out. Now I have to assemble them & sew them together.

I want to do some embroidery on a few but for now I think I'll stick to faux embroidery. It's quicker.

I have to make the girl a pillow out of the fabric she bought.

Finished my top last night. I'll post pictures soon.


Made my first eye shade/sleep mask. It turned out ok. I need to work on keeping my seams straight/consistent.

Need to work on more eye shades.

Current projects.

Right now I have a shirt in the works & plans to make some sleep masks.


The shirt for myself to wear.

The sleep masks will hopefully go up on etsy.com


I'm looking for cute sayings, decorations or pictures to put on the sleep masks.

Introduction.

This is going to a blog of my crafts & sewing projects.


Now if I can keep it up to date. :)
