Test!

Finally updating the blog, hoping to have some more visitors after GenCon. Testing to see if I can update from my phone.

Update

I have been pretty busy since getting back from PAX East. I had a good time there, Boston was nice.
I'm still making (slow) progress on Sailor Mars. I'll try to post pictures this weekend.
I picked up a bead loom a few weeks ago and started playing with it. It's fun. I have some great ideas for it. Here's an in progress shot of a Mega Man bracelet:

I've got a lot of crafting to do this week!

Heading to PAX East

I'm getting ready for the train to PAX East tonight and will be gone for a week (possibly a little longer) so I thought I would post an in progress shot of what I've been working on. I'm still sewing Bulbasaurs to shirts, so this one is taking a bit longer than Sailor Moon did, but here is what I have of my perler bead Sailor Venus!



I can't wait to have all of the scouts done!

Bulbasaur on waste canvas

The fiance and I are going to be in a Pokemon Pub Crawl before PAX East at the end of the week, so I decided to do something to show our team (Bulbasaur!) spirit. I stitched these onto some plain black tshirts. I've never used waste canvas before and now I want to put video game sprites on all of my clothes!

Sailor Mars Day 12

Still progressing pretty slowly, but I've got a 24hour train ride to PAX East next week that will be full of cross stitching (when I'm not playing SoulSilver, of course).

Sailor Mars Day 11 and more fun with perler beads

I ran out of black yesterday so I decided to start filling in her hair. The black and purple have been/are the most tedious parts of this, I'm excited to be getting them out of the way.



I started a project with perler beads, too. I plan to make all of the sprites of the inner scouts from the Sailor Moon Street Fighter Clone and frame them. I'd like to sell it but I think I'll be too attached when I finish it. Here are Sailor Moon and Sailor Mercury:

Sailor Mars Days 9-10 and a side project with perler beads

Sailor Mars is moving along kind of slowly, but I should pick back up after these next few days.



This weekend, I pulled out my perler beads and ended up with this:



I want to do something with it, but I'm not sure what so I just hung it on the craft room wall for now.
