Getting back on the horse

Trying desperately to get back into the habit of making things. I used to have unlimited time, now I have VERY limited time. And in that time I normally feel too exhausted to do anything, but I miss crafting so much. I'm trying to get back into embroidery which is very new to me. I used to do a little bit with my plushes, but now I'm trying to just straight-up embroider.

I'm apparently ok at it, based on the birthday present I posted before, but I'm not so ok at coming up with patterns on my own. Drawing has become a sore subject for me that last few years.

Here's hoping!

I'm so good at birthdays!

Haven't had a chance to mail this off yet. Thought the dog card would be a nice touch. Need to find a nice padded shipping envelope big enough for this embroidery hoop.

People should send me presents like this. I'd be such a happy girl.

Make It Work!

Yesterday was a friend's birthday so I spent most of the day making this for him.

He's always on about getting a tattoo of Tim Gunn and I saw this several months ago and thought of him. After realizing it was his birthday I decided to whip this up to mail to him.

I miss having any-time access to this blog. I have to wait until I'm using someone else's computer. I even left a post on the forum and no one offered me any help so I guess I'm SOL til I get a new computer.

"Luckily" I never having anything to post these days. I miss endless days of crafting and watching Doctor Who and Northern Exposure.
