Updates and Randomness

Shot, I meant to fill this out more regularly than this!

The good news is that I finished the pink leg warmers and they are lovely and gorgeous, and unphotographed. Okay, so that last part isn't so good. I should probably post some writing to prove that I do do creative things, but I don't want to.

Anyway, I do have a new craft project in the works. It's a large sculpted statue project that I've been working on for ages. It will end up being a three-dimensional version of a phoenix character I created who looks more like a gryphon. Fun! I'll have to post the art I did of her here at some point.

To show that I'm not completely hopeless I will post a picture of Chaucer, a plushie gryphon I made last summer. Since then I've decided that I'm going to make a bit of an ongoing project of taking him to various places to be photographed. Yes, I am quite easily amused. Here's Chaucer in front of the Saatchi Gallery!

Pink fuzzy legwarmers

I recently had inspiration strike me, as inspiration so often does. I found about three metres of bright green ribbon and all I can think about now is how funky it would look on legwarmers made out of long pile magenta pink plush. Since my white fuzzy legwarmers look a bit battered I could use a new set. Pink wouldn't show up the dirt so badly either.

Of course this raises the issue of where to find long pile magenta fur. Synthetic, natch. I think I need a trip to Soho for the fabric shops there. Online would probably be easier, but it takes so long! I want my leg warmers now, damnit!

At least I have time for this sort of thing now November is over. I love NaNoWriMo, but it does eat into my time.

And yes my blog is going to be like this.
