Progress this week

It seems as though the 3rd trimester lazies have gotten a hold of me… my work time has been cut in half and I still can't seem to get anything done around my house!! I have managed to get a little knitting and stitching in:

My socks are coming along, and I think I've finally figured out how to hold my yarn so that it isn't tangled and hard to deal with!

I have finished the fun part of my clock (though I still need to fix 6 o'clock Links hair, not a fan of the pink!) The numbers are next and then to add the hardware! I'm very excited about this! What do you think?

Zelda Project

So I've embarked on my first actual cross stitch project. I'm going to make a Zelda Clock because a) we don't have a clock and b) Zelda is awesome. I've already finished 12 o'clock! Whaddya think?

I decided to change her dress from white to pink so it looks less bridal-y, and anyway were all OOT fans so it works out!

The pattern I'm using is from a designer named  Gatchacaz and I found her designs through the Sprite Stitch forums. She has some really neat ones, so if your a nerd who wants to cross stitch like me go take a gander!!

Prototype

Who is this little guy? He'll eventually be put in the shop, but there are some kinks I need to work out. You can't tell (since I took the photos with my phone) but he is far to small to hold an iPhone, which is what he will eventually hold. What do you think?

Totoro and Soot Sprites!

These cute little dudes are now available in my shop! I'm very proud of them!

 I love the little candies I gave them! adorable! :)

 Then my sweet collection of Totoro's! I love them!

What do you think?

Grand Opening!

Today is the day! MegaWench Workshop Etsy store is now open for business! I am nervous and excited and all sorts of mixed up emotions! This adventure's going to be a big one, I can't wait to see where it takes me!!!

One more to go…

I'm just about ready to open my Etsy shop! I'm not convinced my photos are good enough, but I fear I will need to make do.  I'm almost ready to go! It's very exciting.

Needle Book

Here is what I made today:

A cute little book for my darning needles! I had embroidered the fish a long while back, I think they were meant to be an Ipod case. However I cut the fabric to close to the embroidery, so I stowed it away for some future project.

 

It's a simple design, with only two 'pages' for my needles to go. I secured it with a snap closure, but it's turning out to be too good of a snap, and I may decide to change it in future should it become bothersome. So far so good!
