Been feeling like I should update this. I haven't felt like much has been going on (unless of course you consider the times that I'm way to busy to post here), but once I sort of list it all out, I realize that I really never stop doing stuff :) I got some new yarn that I'm planning to use for the Bellatrix socks. This picture really doesn't do the color justice, but the name does: Electric Midnight! Found it on Etsy from Spindle Cat Studio.
I made a zine, my very first, for the My Town swap on Swap-bot. It was kinda fun, a lot of work, but nice to have a record of the things I'm doing in SLC right now. It's part travel guide and part stories about life in Salt Lake City. It's called, "Oh My! Salt Lake City" and there are exactly 3 copies in existence.
Have been thinking a lot about our cruise. As the ticker above is showing, it is getting very close and so I've been trying to plan out everything. Our big dilemma has been Hurricane Dean. We have been watching it's course non-stop. It happened to visit every place we are going except the Bahamas. It's ended up passing them all up with minor damage, so we'll go down and (hopefully) be able contribute some money to them :) Now I'm just crossing my fingers for clear skies until the 10th of September.
Also been looking at a lot of people's art online. Mostly with the help of Craftzine. They find so many interesting art projects, it's just amazing. One that's just great is High Concept Softies. The broccoli and crazed bunny just makes me laugh. Then there's Mamaqilla's felted fiber gallery, which is so good, it's kinda creepy. If you go to this page, you can see step by step pictures of how she does it. Another place I've been playing on is Indie Public. It's a community website for independent designers and the people who love them. Basically designers can post pictures of things they've made and offer to sell the pattern if they want. It's very cool and I think that with all of these online communities, I really could spend the rest of my life on the Internet.
