A Sassy Conspiracy

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar!

Poor corduroy cat has been waiting patiently for me to make good on my end of our personal swap (she sent me the delightfully macabre needle felted two-headed kitten last month). Finally this week I got my butt in gear and finished up her gift!
As strange as it seems
Our theme was circus sideshow/pickled punk, so [...]

The fabulous Nven knit this amazing pirate hat (based on a similar one from Craftster) for the boy! The poor thing had a rough start: we received it mere moments before going to see the new Star Trek movie, so it came along to the theatre where it was passed around the group to try [...]

Due do popular demand (that’s you Lek!) I’ve added a costume gallery to this site. I’ve only had a chance to add a few costumes, but there will be more soon! As my sewing talents are rather limited, most of these costumes I’ve either designed or altered from existing clothing, or have done the makeup [...]

Here is a quick little update with some photos of the boyfriend’s finished Pavi Largo ensemble. We went to a showing of Repo! The Genetic Opera! last Friday and had the opportunity to give the costume a trial run :) While turnout was a little disappointing, I think there is great potential - Repo! fans [...]

Dear boyfriend will be dressing as Pavi Largo at this Friday’s midnight showing of Repo! The Genetic Opera, which presented a really interesting crafty challenge for me.

Instead, I ordered 10 gross of 4mm economy hotfix glass rhinestones (from http://shop.dazzlemonkey.com) and picked up a bra from the Bay (I had a coupon AND it [...]

All components are sterling silver, including the hand made French ear wires, with Swarovski crystal accents. The earrings have a really nice movement to them. ^_^

Made this pendant for my friend Carolina’s 15th birthday. She’s been helping me out with my anatomy classes for a few years now as my assistant, so I figured she deserved something special for her birthday. She’s a big Firefly fan so it seemed appropriate. :)
For those not in the know, in the Firefly universe [...]

NOTE: The legal representatives of Whitewolf have requested that I remove the images  of  my pendant from my blog  as they feel it infringes on their copyrighted material (despite the fact that it is a fan creation and was not made for profit). Pretty lame considering I was mighty proud of how it turned out.
