straps!!!

i've been such a slacker with my etsy site since i got the job at emeritus.  i used to do all my sewing in the morning and then go to work at 1 until 9:30 and that was great!  now i get to work at 7, work until 3:30 and DO NOT feel like sewing when i get home.  so anything i do gets done on the weekends.  and that's usually doing things for other  people.  or just being lazy on the couch!  but i've recently gotten off my ass and made more camera straps because they just keep selling.  and they're fun to make.

here's some of the latest ones:

i looooove this one:

this one sold and i sent it to singapore:

this one sold and i sent it to ohio.  that's next to singapore, right?:

and this one.....mmmm.....love the geometric pattern and the colors!:

now i have 5 bags to make.  4 are christmas prezzies (way to think ahead, noelle!) and one is for erin.  comin' your way soon, ladies!!!

i got shit done...

it was the ging's birthday last wednesday, so i started late and made her a stuffed rabbit this last weekend. 

and LOOKIT them ears! sooooo cute!:

it's all finished!

this was my first attempt at making the rabbit and i got his little ears too far back on his head, so next time i'll put them up further.  he's still stupid cute though.  

then on monday after work i went over to top pot, where she works, and gave her her prezzie.  ginger loooved her new rabbit!  i'm always so happy when i make someone something they REALLY love!

she works at the original top pot, which is downtown.  we have one 5 blocks from our house, but the one downtown is the neatest.

then on my way home i realized that i haven't had quiche since we moved from the last house, which is almost exactly one year ago!  so i made quiche for dinner tonight.  broccoli, onion, cheddar and parmesan.

it's about to go into the ovens:

it's really too bad that alistair eats so differently from me, because this quiche was GOOD!

aaaaand i'm gonna have it for lunchie-poo tomorrow!

and the last thing for today is i had a custom order for 3 camera straps and whipped those out tonight while i was in between dinner and whatnot:

they're for a girl in california, sarah, who is a photographer and has already bought quite a few straps from me.  she has a couple websites of her own:

and i'm really liking the lace i put on this one:

i had just enough of it to make her strap.  gold and white. mmmmmm.....
