The Haunted Girl

"Drawing" with the sewing machine is fun. I may make pets next.

Marsza

Martian Girl. I love the word Martian. I don't know why. Martian. Everybody is sober here :D.

Gertie

I dunno how I pulled off making something in mid day but here ya go.

Gertie Owl. Gertie Owl is made from recycled fabrics and buttons including a vintage sports jacket.

Eat Sleep Voodoo

Well I didn't make that robot yesterday because I wasn't feeling it and I didn't want to screw up because I only have limited amount of fabric for the robot. Instead I made more voodoos. It's relaxing for me :D Here they are and I will be posting them throughout the day. Two will go as a pair.

School starts soon! Wow. I hope my kid doesn't pull the "I don't want to wear that" crappola after we buy her what she picks out. It's happened every year! My kids don't like to wear denim either. They are all about comfort. I don't blame them. Anywhoo, this is going to mean 6:00 am alarm again.....OH HOW I DREAD THIS.

Voodoo Boo

I know I have been slacking lately but I have been busy with kids. Here, there, everywhere!! I itch to get on that sewing machine for more than 20 minutes!! I have a robot planned for today and I will move mountains to get to it :)

Last night I did get another voodoo done though. He is made from the softest polyester "velvet". He was a *itch to photograph though. :D

Voodoo Boo awaits Halloween each year with such anticipation! he has already perfected his sinister hobble.

Oh My!

A customer made me aware that one of my little junker plushies was featured in SMALL magazine :D Wow! I am excited!! I feel a little famous, hee.

Voodoo Marie

Voodoo Marie's faded elegance hints of her New Orleans past.

Marie is made from recycled fabrics and buttons. Marie's front fabric is from a handmade bolero jacket lining. Her back fabric is a taffeta type fabric that lined another handmade piece of clothing that I bought secondhand.
Marie's eyes are two recycled buttons from a large jar I purchased at an antique mall. She has one metal eye with faded paint and one pearly one.

I think that the Voodoo's are going to be my main Halloween contribution this season :D

I can make Voodoo's all the live long day. *Sigh*

Maybe if I can make a big batch at once I can take a Halloween display photo. Wouldn't a long line of Voodoo's look great along a mantle (which I don't have) or sideboard??

Viva Halloween!

:D
