Beemo Scarf!!

Almost finished! I was finally able to pick up the felt :) Yay spring break!

Look what I found at Michael's!

 They had this cart at the store on Clark yesterday! I though it was awesome :)

Custom iPad Case Tutorial

Here's my first tutorial!<3

Materials needed:
-Clear iPad case (mine is the Belkin Snap Shield for iPad 2 which works with the Smart Cover)
-Scissors or x-acto knife
-ruler
-cutting mat
-pretty paper!

1. Cut the paper to about 9 1/2" x 7 1/4"
2. Round off the corners and cut a slit in each one (so it will follow the edge of the iPad)
3. Cut out paper to correspond with the cut outs on the case
4. Place the paper in the case and snap it on!

done! woo! Now you have a custom pretty iPad case which is easily interchangeable, make as many as you want to match your mood!

I plan on carrying these in my Etsy store pretty soon! I'll post a link when I do.

Chicago

Wow. I am so in love with this city. I always knew in my heart I would end up here some day, and now that it is a reality, I almost can't believe it. I'm close to the rest of my family, I've already made awesome friends, my bf and I are happier than ever... I can't wait to start school!

Penguins!

Here are the amigurumi I made a few weeks ago. I've been watching a lot of Adventure Time With Finn and Jake and I want to make everything from it as amigurumi! I couldn't find a pattern for Gunther, one of the Ice King's penguins, so I made these guys instead. I am in the process of making a few patterns of characters from the show. Hopefully I'll get them done before I move.

iPad

So yeah, I got one for graduation, which is part of why I haven't posted in forever. The other reason is being in between moving. There are about two weeks until I throw all of my stuff in a moving van and drag Brian to the cold awesomeness of Chicago.
I'm really excited to start grad school and be in a new city. But I'm still figuring the whole apartment thing out.
I'm going to post more projects as soon as I can get some good pictures going. It's been so rainy though...

So I'm a college graduate now. Whoooooo! On to more school! In the fall I start at Roosevelt University in Chicago for my graduate degree in vocal performance. I can't wait to move up there!! But for now I'm still stuck here in the South. I'm staying with Brian's family in Mobile, Al until we find an apartment in Chi-town and find a way to get ourselves and all our stuff there. Hopefully we will both find jobs before we actually move...


A few days after graduation I managed to faint and smash my face on a chair, giving me two lacerations, one on my eyelid and the other on my cheek. Which gave me lots of time to sit around and crochet. I've gotten quite a few projects done in the last few weeks.
