For fuck's sake, man, you're amateur

Hello all! I feel like it's been too long since I had a craft related post, so here's the goods! As some of you may know, I've been doing sections of the Christian Bale rant. If you haven't heard it yet, you live under a rock. Just kidding, you can hear it in all it's glory here. Believe me, if you love the word fuck, then you'll love the rant! This one is one of my personal favorites..



available @ my etsy for $20!
Then this one just had to be done.

available at my etsy for $20!

I've started on another one & hopefully it will be done by tonight! I'm having a hard time finding cool borders so if you guys know of any sites or books I should get, holla!

I tried my hand at stitching fabric onto a onesie. It went...ok. It could've turned out better, but I'm still pleased with it! I should've used my sewing machine, but I didn't, so it ended up with some puckering & bubbles. I still think it's a pretty fucking sweet onesie though! If I had a kid, it would totally be rocking stuff like this. It really doesn't look as crooked in real life :)

available @ my etsy for $15!

Who doesn't love robots? Who doesn't love lovebots? I really liked stitching this one! I used split stitch, back stitch, & satin stitch. LoveBot was even featured on Feeling Stitchy! Pattern by Urban Threads
SOLD!

I even did one of those cool sidewys shots I see! Haha!

Remember those patches I had a few entries back? Well, I took the advice & made them into brooches. Buy some! They's cheap!

available @ my etsy for $3 each!




Yep, this little break has kept me a busy girl! I've really enjoyed being able to craft as much as I have been lately.

On a non craft related note, I got my leg worked on Wednesday. This was a graduation/birthday present :) First session is done! This is my family's coat of arms. A lot of my tattoos are family related. The flowers on my arm(there's pictures on the blog somewhere) each represent a member of my family, and they're their birth month flowers. Back to the family coat of arms...Manu Forti means "With a strong hand". I love it & can't wait to see it finished!

Jackpot!


i had this frame sitting in my craft closet, waiting for a project for a little while now. it had originally been what i had settled on for the megaman cross stitch, but then i found my perfect frame! so last night, i was in the craftin' mood & i thought "slot machine!" the frame seemed to be perfect for it. i have another slot machine idea as well that i'll probably start on tonight, except it's cross stitch so it's gonna take a minute.

i made a few mistakes, as i found out at the very end while i was framing it :(
i have really gotta practice with the whole not cutting too much off thing. and of course that happened with the one i really didn't want to mess up. oh well, it's easily fixable.

i just needed a quick little project to do, & i feel like i haven't really been doing much embroidery. satin stitching all of it was actually a lot of fun, i think i really love satin stitch now! the cherries definitely aren't perfect but i like them.
