[Lee Kushrenada]

ok so I have not meen around in a little wile, life has been a "little" crazy. rolleyes
any how lets stop talking about me, and I'll show ytou some of the things I'v been making.
ok so I just got a new sowing matchine (LOVE) and I could take a beginning sowing class at a discownt, and it would teach quilting, somthing I have never done, and I could do a final progect, and I thought it would be a good way to get me off my but and make somthing I had the patern and fabric for.

here is the tabel-runner I made.

ok yes its a tabel-runner on a wall...but it dose not go with anything in our house, so I keep it on my wall.

my insperation for this comes from the book I'm reading, 'Looking Glass War's'.

and here is the kimono I'v been meaning to make for ever 9 months.


yay crap photo! whee

ok, here's the scarf I'v been knitting for over a month. xp
I WAS going to weave in the end's of the white, but every one loved them and told to to keep them, so I addes some tassel's, and then I added more...and then more. xd and to think, this is the first time I'v ever added tassel's to anyting... I'm thinking about cutting some of them back, what do you think?

ok I'v been thinking about spinning for some time now.
so I finaly did.
I made myself my own dropspindle (thank you Dad's power tools) and picked up some wool from the little knitting store downtown, and well you know the rest.
what I'v knitted up was the first of it, yes its first class crap, but I love it, and dow I'm making some more.



I would love some coments! whee  

[I be me]

How did you get that goldie stuff on that picture.

h how I wish I had the time to take a quilting class right now I don't get to do enough of it. I have to wait until december before I'll be around a sewing machine again.  

[Lee Kushrenada]

I Be Me: thank you very much, I really like what I'v made, but what do you mean about the gold? sweatdrop

ForestGreen: thank's...I was there with a friend who was also reading the book and she thought thed'd be really cool, I like it a lot.

VP Club Freakin Justice: I think its a lot of fun, and the wool is really cheep...so it helps to give you somthing to do, you not only knit but you spin too.  

[DecemberFlower]

Yay, spinning! It looks really good, by the way. 3nodding

DecemberFlower: the redish stuff is comming out ok...the blue/green was crap, yet I liked how it had that... hand spun look.

Peppermint Elf: thank's. redface mrgreen

The quilt is beautifull! biggrin

thank you!
I really what to try quiltting other thing's now.
what I really want to try and do is, to just randomly quilt together a bonch of random fabric's, and then just them up and use then for fabric, so I could bake a jacket (or somthing) and have random quilted sleeves. whee I think if done right, it would be REALLY cool!

I thought the blue stuff came out pretty good. Looks a little extratwisty, but that's probably because it's just a single. But it still looks good to me.

But yeah, I think my first handspun was kind of crap, too, if only because it's too chunky.

The red stuff looks good, too. How's the homemade spindle working out?

no the first stuff was 2ply. sweatdrop
and I am getting better at it and I think it show's in the red, not that its good enough to sell or anything, but I'm liking it, and its fun too... and it makes the proses longer, witch is good if you have a lot of free time on your hand's. (coz don't ya know that I just have so much time to spend on spinning and knitting. stare )
