A trip to Huntsville solved my yarn problem! I only had to go to 3 stores to find it! But, by golly, I found it. Now I just have to try to finish the scarf and the tutorial for the guitar hero cupcakes this week.
Not much else is going on. I [...]

So I’m having my first yarn snafu ever. I only bought one skein of yarn for the guitar hero scarf, but it was not enough. When I went back to the store to get more, that color was mysteriously gone. The sku for it was gone and everything. I like to [...]

I usually only try to post artistically good photos of the baby here, but getting photos like that in this apartment is pretty hard. My camera is a little cheapy point and shoot, so I can’t get good photos in this place unless the lighting is just right. Kinda sucks. But anyway! [...]

After watching the inauguration I just feel like anything I post is kind of silly. I’ll leave all the commentary to the political blogs. But I will say that I am very, very proud of our country. I look forward to the next 4 years with excitement and hope.
Good luck, President Obama. [...]

EDIT: Yo, dudes! It’s finished! Check out the new link: Finished Guitar Hero Scarf
I thought I would have finished this thing by now, but not quite. So here are progress pictures! May I present, my Guitar Hero Scarf!!

Well it doesn’t look like much at the moment, this is just as far [...]

Y’all remember those guitar hero cupcakes I made forever ago? It looks like the internet has found them and they’re getting linked everywhere. (and here and here and even here.) That last one is intriguing. NBC, albeit in the “Bay Area” and no article, just a link. But hey! Still [...]

Happy Monday! I don’t have any crafts to show you, but I’d like to introduce you to a nice lady that just friended me on Flickr, Will Quilt For Games. Her quilting work is absolutely awesome. And all of her stuff is up for sale on Etsy! Raindrops23 on Etsy. [...]

Over the holiday, Craft magazine picked up on another one of my crafts. Go check it out: Space Invaders Guitar Strap on Craft!
Normally I’d be super excited, but this has brought up something that I was hoping to avoid. I have gotten many, many requests for more 8 bit guitar straps. [...]

I’m currently addicted to Animal Crossing. People either love or hate this game. It seems that most people find it incredibly boring. But I tihnk I’ve made my town quite interesting. For instance, the cutesy little animal characters that run around like to ask you what their catchphrase should be. [...]

Are you ready for some baby cuteness?? I think a lot of you could use it since this is the first Monday after the holiday break for a bunch of you.
Hmmm. I’m playing with Wordpress’s image code thingy. Not sure if I like this. ANYWAY! If you want the rest [...]
