Okay, sorry that took so long folks. I had a bunch of them shot and then Nat goes and DELETES them. So i had to wait until i saw Zander again. Now i present to you jen’s great photo meme....

hound action shot: Samuel in her tutu rolling over for food
Favorite non-shop sewing project: MY VERY OWN dpn wallet with fabric that has Lucy dogs on it
favorite object handmade by you: my 3-d class final project. Had to be of any material we used all semester long. It was to be a vestibule for something that was very sentimental to us. Had to be a vessel to hold this treasure in. I approached my professor while everyone else was still thinking and asked to go buy some raw oak. I told him i needed to make a hinged “k”. It would hold my grandma K’s diamond earrings. We were extremely close to her, my dad’s biological mother. She died young. Anyways this thing started out as beautiful piece of oak my professor GAVE me. He told me he liked my idea so much he had special wood to donate to me ( we were supposed to buy it from the college wood scrap) i cut it and fused it and hinged it and sanded and sanded and sanded then varnished. it’s a work of art. best of all when i presented, my prof said what was her first name i said matilda maude apparently when you open it and lay it flat it makes an MK. It was not intended. Needless to say i got an A+. It is my very favorite thing made by me with a lot of love and sawing and sanding.

bright copper kettles: you have to settle for a silver kettle that doesn’t whistle (annoying)
warm woolen mittens: my manos mittens
doorbells
Photos for Amy
Little boy eyelashes: modeled by Zander himself, so cute i had to include two photos
Your favorite toy: my bean stuffed cat given to me the day i was born from grandma K, yes i still have it, i refuse to get rid of it. I don’t care if you call it roadkill. I will fight you. You will lose.
Favorite fiber to knit with: because i am poor, merino wool
Photos for Stephanie
Something insideout and upside down: what the hell? the best i could do was shoot myself in reflection, but i am not inside out!
Your Utopia:non-stop reading or being read to
Favorite smell: all three (not at once) of Philosophy’s grace perfumes. My FAV HANDS DOWN IS PURE GRACE. it smells like soap and water...literally.

My favorite Nat picture: well i have a few old ones, but i shot a new one this weekend. I was online and nat was sleeping, his cat missed him all week long.
My favorite craft: knitting clears my mind
My favorite fabric: i just bought enough of this to make a 5 panel skirt!
Photos for LLA who thinks she’s being evil
Picture of yer bellybutton: while i want to vomit even looking at this picture in photoshop here you go
A photoshopped picture of Nat with the Nat Sherman sign: nat NEVER smiles, here it is by popular demand....back in like 2004 we were in new york city the day after xmas. While waiting for a light i told nat to stand under the nat sherman sign. He REFUSED to stand near the sign. SO i took the picture anyways WITHOUT him. He looked at me and said oh no. i said oh yes. He said you aren’t going to PHOTOSHOP me into that are you. Damn straight i was.
A beagle in a tutu. Or you in a tiara. Or you in a tiara, holding a beagle in a tutu. Or you in a tutu, holding a beagle wearing a tiara: ok i don’t own a tiara, nor did i feel like finding one to photoshop onto my head after the whole deleting my photos incident. Altho I’ve always asked for one cause i find that it would be cool to wear it like you for no good real reason (this was before i even knew of you and your tiara story even so great minds must think alike or so randomly alike) So you get me holding a beagle in a tutu TWO pictures (note that is the sewing room at my sister’s it is bright orange and those would be adam’s wrestling action figures not mine y0)
Photos for Lesa
Favorite Birks: my felt clogs
favorite fo: the hermoine hat i made for joy, cause i had never done cables in the round
Favorite ugly sweater: i took this to mean one after my mom burned the O.G. (original gangsta) baby shit yellow mohair thing. It is the first one she got me for xmas to “replace” the ugly sweater. She apparently thought this was ugly. I think she is cuckoo bananas. (yes that is a PEEPS shirt and if you look closely it says gives peeps a chance)
***edited for visual reference*** here is a picture of the O.G. Ugly sweater i wore forever in the 90’s until my mom burned it. The model is an ex-boyfriend. His parents house always had TONS of Rush Limbaugh books in it.
ok. So nothing new. Still working on single green cable twist sock. Have ripped it out 900 times. When i mess up the pattern in more than one section i go cuckoo bananas. If anyone can tell me where the hell i picked up the phrase cuckoo bananas from i will squeal with delight to know i am not the only one obsessed with this show. Kayt or Kristen should know the answer to that question.
I’m probably going to post again after the weekend. So i hope y’all have a happy easter. May your day be filled with chocolate bunnies and dyed eggs.

That was picture overload!! I wish that I could comment on every picture.
The Lucy fabric is too cute. I love it. They should make fabrics for mutts.
The K box is awesome! A plus for craftmanship.
I also love your favorite fabric! But I am cheap and can’t justify spending too much money on fabric.
Those shoes! where did you get those felted clogs? Can you wear them out in the rain? Purple/lavender is my favorite color and you are making me covet those shoes.

Does Joy age? I’m serious. She looks the same as 5+ years ago. It’s insane.

Hi
Sorry this has NOTHING to do about your recent post but it’s the only way I could figure how to contact you because I’m such a noob at this whole thing.
I was wondering how did you customize your page.
I’ve been searching and can’t find absoulutly anything that can tell me. And no one reads mine so no one has answered my questions and if you look you can see my sad attempt to make it pretty and well your my only hope obiwanqanobi (sorry saw a thing on starwars the other night and couldn’t help my self ^_^)
PLEASE HELP ME thank you XD

What a fun bunch of pictures!
That hound dog fabric is too cute. Reminds me of our friend’s basset hound - her name is Elvis.
(cracks me up)
Happy Easter!

ACK! I love, love, love this - and want to comment on every single picture....
However, I’ll keep it simple and say that you are a trooper, a very good sport, and just all around cute and fun!
And that K box really is superfantastic - I love everything about it: its genesis, its sentimentality, the actual execution - all so wonderful…

OMG-a beagle in a tutu - that’s priceless. Our beagle wouldn’t be still long enough to put one on him and if by chance he did, he’d never look us in the eye again.
Your pooch is so cute!
