Susan Sto-helit. Because in this world, after everyone panics,

And I got the Halloween tree and stuff set up on the drawing table this morning. Now I get to see how Norma reacts to having a bunch of stuff on her table - she uses the drawing table as a throughway for playing The Floor is Lava. I'm thinking of this as a small test for Xmas, when we will have an Actual Tree in the living room. New cats for Christmas!

Here's the necklace and earrings I did last week. ( Photos )

Finished! ( More pictures )

I declared this last weekend Sewing Weekend. The plan was to complete a couple of small sewing projects, then close up Arachne and reorganize a bit.

Well, I finished one project, a second cover for my lap pillow*. The little silk drawstring bags are still in progress. So it's Sewing Week. Whatever. Anyway, here's a picture. I actually made two covers; Kitty asked for one just like mine for her old crib pillow. Since her pillow is the same size as mine, it was easy.

I used a Halloween print quilting cotton fabric from Joann's. The pillow is a baby size, big enough for the tablet or a book, but there's still enough space for Shadow to fit next to me.



*The other cover being the Capt Marvel print.

I finished a shiny thing: ( Eight shiny things, count 'em )

So here we are, finally done.

I had this idea for a decoration for my little wee studio. Originally it was going to be "CREATE" in wooden building blocks, and then I found a whole tub of them at the Goodwill for cheap so I embellished a bit. "TIME TO CREATE" was inspired by the Moomintrolls; Moominpapa has dragged everyone off to a lighthouse so he can write the Great Novel. Next morning, Moominmama wakes him up early. Anyway, I think it's funny*. ( Photos and all that )

In which I commit extreme frivolousness. ( Photos and some rude comments follow )

I modified my pocket-sized* Oberon Design leather notebook cover to work as a Midori-type traveller's notebook (or TN for short) and hold multiple inserts. Aka a sort of Fauxdori. ( Photos below the cut. )

I'm still pottering around, but I think the books are in their final order, more or less. ( Enter the library )
