I finally finished the Guitar Hero Scarf! Here it is in all six feet of it’s glory:

Just in time for… spring. Well, crap.
I decided to go with a riff from “Killer Queen” by Queen from one of the first Guitar Hero games released. I could have gone with something trendier, or with [...]

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 [...]

Sorry, foodies. No cookie recipe this week. I am going to be over at my Mother in law’s house, picking her brain about sewing patterns. I am making out Halloween costumes this year. I don’t know WHAT I was thinking when I agreed to do that since the only thing I’ve [...]

So I made another quick DS case. I want to embroider a character or item on it, but I can’t make up my mind.

With those colors it is just screaming for something Mario related. I did a mushroom on the last one. Maybe a koopa shell? Or the Mario “M”? [...]

I’ve made another guitar strap! This one features characters from Joust.

This one is for one of Alex’s jamming buddies, who also happens to be his boss. Now listen to this: Alex works for this guy who likes to come into his office and play guitar with him. Alex keeps his second guitar [...]

This was one of those ideas that when I thought of it, I was like “Why didn’t I think of this SOONER?” It seems obvious now!

I must apologize for the poor picture quality. One of my lights busted and I didn’t have time to go get another one before I had [...]

Remember how last week I said I failed miserably at all things baking? Well, this week, I made those vengeful Sugar Gods my bitches:

Behold! Magic the Gathering cookies! I made 25 cookies, 5 of each land. It took two days to complete them. Here’s a little tutorial:
First make sugar cookies. [...]

I finally finished the guitar strap!

This was definitely the most fun cross stitch I have ever done. Alex said he wanted “retro-fabulous” colors, and these are the ones he chose. I was a little skeptical at first, but it turned out great! And of course he loves it.
There are more pictures over [...]

So my apologies for not having a finished craft with this post. I’m getting ready to head out of state for the yearly family reunion, and I have of course, put everything off until the last minute. So here’s a teaser for ya:

My husband has learned that if there is something in the [...]
