Link Dump

I decided to leave you some links to some things that caught my interest this week. Maybe they'll be of some interest to you as well!

Next Tuesday (the 24th) Elycia and Chantilly will be hosting a craft night! I hope I can pop in and observe, and make that cute little camera plush! =D

Allison Kaye adopted a super adorable cat named Batman. I love cats, so I live vicariously through other cat owners. (if you have a cat, let me know so I can make annoying cute sounds!)

The lovely ladies at The Coletterie posted up a nifty tutorial for applique. I think I'll poke about and see if I have any large prints I can chop up!

And I sort of want this Modcloth dress. And by want it, I mean I want to make it.

I start school on Monday, and I keep hitting mini walls when it comes to writing up my lesson things! Maybe being back in the school setting will psych me back into a good writing groove. Hmm. Fingers crossed!!

Take care.

PS- I might make this a regular thing. What do you guys think?

Busy Weekend

I'm trying to get as many things done while I still have ample free time. Don't want to have that overworked feeling so early on in the semester!!

A friend asked me to make her a panda hat the other day, and this is how far I've gotten. I need to sew on the ears, and make the face! It's already super adorable, I love it.

I plan to do a bit of sewing later this evening, so I can deplete the growing stash of fabric scraps I have.

Can one call 5 rows of garter stitch a WIP? Well, I am. If I zone out on my netflix queue, I should finish this.

I'm still working on my organizational skills. So I'm figuring out how to plan blog posts. I've got some ideas for recurring things, such as Inspirational mosaics, work in progress days, and things that made me smile that week. Do any of you have any other ideas of things which can work?

Take care, and happy crafting.

Slowly, but surely.

I'm still trying my best for figure how to go about these lessons. But I think I'm doing pretty good. I can reuse bits and pieces from my speech presentation to get this started.

Everything is there, I just have to work on the execution.

And I did it, I made resolutions for the year. I snagged an adorable printout from mygirlthursday and scribbled up things I plan to accomplish this year.

1. Increase my Self-Confidence.

I'm slowly getting better.

2. Apply to a craft fair.

It's something I've been wanting to do for a while. :3

3. Create more.

Just in general. Take a bit of time out, to make new lovely things.

4. Increase Social Media presence.

AKA, have not just my bffs following me on all social networks. (don't get me wrong, I love you guys, but I can text you all the upcoming info xD)

5. Smile more.

There's a reason for the 'angry' in Tiny.Angry.Crafter. I rarely smile, and I frown a lot. I need to work on the smiley part.

6. Work hard, and stay sane.

I work hard, but get burnt out so easily. Gotta work hard, and still have the drive to keep going.

If I keep at it, I'll have at least my intro for the knitting and crochet lessons up by the end of this weekend. So keep your fingers crossed, and feel free to yell at me on twitter to keep at it!

Take care, and happy crafting!
