Crafting Day results!

Hello Dears,

Sorry for the long pause in posting. A bunch of happy, fun, life stuff has been going on and I haven't been able to get much done in the way of crafting. Despite such setbacks as a brand new iMac, Diablo III, more responsibilities at work, a more energized social life when I'm not gaming, and tore-up fingers, my friend Liss the Snood-Squirrel and I got together yesterday for a fun day of crafting.

She asked me to embroider a pillow for her awesome dog with the pup's name on it. In return she is helping me with my latest pony project: Zecora. I tried doing Zecora's jewelry in fleece but that just didn't seem to work. So I asked Liss to use her super, 'knit-fu' to help create Zecora's accents. Her's an action shot of our progress!

All faces on this blog are obscured to protect the innocent!

I also made some progress on my white deer bag that I hope to have done in time for the Maryland Renaissance fair. So if you're attending the fair this year, look for the lady with the white deer mask, bag, and awesome kilt attire!

I should also mention that while we crafted I got to see the 1980's film "Bladerunner" for the first time. Not only was the movie itself amazing, but since we watched it on an old VHS (the thing before dvd's for you millenials) we got to see old commercials from 1984 (the year not the book).  It was amazing not only see advertizements from that era, but to see what products still existed today.

One that had me rolling was Fidelity Bank: the commercial stated it was brand new and a new start for NJ, but that bank went out of business when I was in 1st or second grade. Not to mention all the Jeep Comanche adverts...

That's all for now dears, see you next time with a complted Zebra plushie (I hope!)
