Tin-can Stilts

My daughter and I made a pair of tin-can stilts so that she could play with them the way Ramona Quimby does in one of the Beverly Cleary books.  It was quick and fun and now she has a new toy…that’s loud.

Thing-a-day Cinco (Jebby the Whale)

I didn’t draw anything today, but I did sew my first stuffed toy for sale on etsy! I slapped together this flyer with photos and my shop banner. Shameless self promotion indeed :)

HopeEvey day 3

Today I made two things - a birthday postcard, and another rope toy for my dog. Frankly, I should probably keep making rope toys until I’m out of rope, so I’ll have a stockpile :)

I looked at a book called 1000 ATCs today, and got wildly inspired. I may have to make ATCs soon.

superbowl sunday stuffie

although i’m not a football fan, i made a football stuffie in honor of superbowl sunday:

it’s the first time i’ve ever made a stuffie before (i’ve been wanting to start), and it was much more challenging than i realized it would be. i had a hard time visualizing the correct shapes to cut that, when sewn together would form a football. i’d originally intended it to be much rounder than a regular football even, but it turned out to be flatter. still, i’m happy with the final result. the face reminds me of an eel somehow, i’m not sure why (my husband says it doesn’t). it was also kind of inspired by uglydolls, so i guess i can call it an uglyball?

here are some preliminary drawings that i made:
