Rats as Big as Cats: June 2015
http://ratsasbigascats.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
On Thursday night BorderlineStraggler. Since watching the film I have had so many conflicting reviews. There is a lot of criticism about the one dimensional characters and unbelievable plot and the trailer size holes in it, but for me it was a perfect combination of excitement, fast paced plot, exaggerated characters with little or no back story and motivation, and DINOSAURS! And I just can't stop humming this tune. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Simple template. Powered by Blogger.

Branding, branding everywhere. As part of my Professional Practice module I have been designing logos for use on my work and business stationery. For me this is some of the most fun bits of the end of college - the finishing touches, the details and the stationery! I have written before about the origin of Rats as Big as Cats. And now I am taking my tweaked logo and going crazy with it. The Crafts Cluster: Final Countdown. Event, a day designed to not. Our part of the activities was encouraging people to...

On a Friday I work as a freelance community artist. At the moment I am working with The Courtyard's arts and older people. Team running an arts club. The idea behind the project is to use rural pubs as a community meeting point and deliver arts to older people who are living independently. I realised that I am four weeks into a ten week project already and I hadn't taken a single picture or blogged about the project, so today amid all of the creative chaos I remembered to take a few shots.

Handmade Holidays: A Quilt for Bernard. Bernard is my niece's teddy bear. He goes everywhere with her and I wanted him to have a gift for Christmas. I made him his very own quilt to match her's. While the idea of a tiny miniature version of this quilt sounded very cute I knew it wouldn't quite work so instead I used some of the same materials and colours to make a coordinating quilt instead. The chance to make something special and personal for my niece made this one of may favourite gifts to give this y...

BEDM:the best thing about being an adult aka winning at Mondays. I was going to write a post about the wonderful realisation that as an adult my friends understand that people are complicated and make mistakes and don't judge. But between drafting that post and now I got a bonkers text inviting me to a prince gig. Yes that Prince. On a Monday night. In Birmingham and it was awesome. For this (rescheduled) post I've mixed it up a little bit. George from Caramel Latte Kiss. And here is hers:. Hereford Cast...

A quilt for Mia. My fun-quilts-to-make list had been getting steadily longer while I was finishing my degree, in my third year there was very little time for sewing things non-college related. Once I was graduated top of my list to get finished was a quilt for my niece. Makes and I have been experimenting with adding more interest to the back of my pieces for a while. At FOQ this year so my next project is going to be making a sampler quilt to try all the designs out! Labels: a quilt for. Don't worry I a...

This time I let my brother have free rein, and I got some amazing things. The new oven timer is already being used. There are some excellent translations:. And I even got Shrinky dink plastic! I have wanted to play with this stuff for ages and now I have my very own Daiso shrinkies. Nothing quite cheers my day up like odd items from far away places. Week in pictures #5.
