The last few weeks before Halloween were crazy for me! I made 7 Moishe costumes- skipping meals, showers, and sleep to send each one out on time. Each one takes about 20 hours to complete. I made my first adult-sized Moishe and I made a set for 4 month-old twin boys. I took some photos [...]

It’s Moishe! I just recently learned that Maurice Sendak, during the adaptation of his book to opera, named the characters Tzippy, Moishe, Bruno, Emile, and Bernard- after relatives. I made my first Moishe costume last year and made more mistakes than I care to remember. This year the process was a wee [...]

This is the chaos in which I made my little film. I sat myself down one Saturday night and pressed my shutter button hundreds of times until I had every frame. I filmed the whole thing too- so later today I should be also posting a video of the making. =)

I’ve been [...]

Hi friends and neighbors-
I made a little stop motion video. I’ve been talking about it here for quite some time- and now it’s time for it’s grand debut! I made it to enter the HP You on You contest and waited to post it here until I knew if I was moving to [...]

For my now completed stop motion teeny tiny film I had to make a whole host of teeny tiny props. It took just about the same amount of time to make everything as it did to photograph the stop motion! I was so inspired by the movie Coraline. Everything in that movie [...]

I haven’t been this excited about a project in a long time. I’ve been losing sleep over it for days (that spinning mind that won’t wind down) and you should have seen me tonight- I was just outta control with adjusting lights and getting Garth’s opinion on exposure and white balance and the background [...]

I really love flokati rugs. I have two that are safely tucked away in my parents basement awaiting our reunion. When I learned that I would be having a child and building a nursery for him, I wanted a flokati. A gray one. Being a flokati snob though, I knew that [...]

I’ve just taken a shower to cleam myself from the grime of today:
One layer of sweat from the battle reenactment in downtown Pensacola this morning, and another for visiting Pensacola Naval Air Station to check out a European car show (by accident) and a motorcycle safety fair. I also got a little crispy and [...]

There is a stranger in my belly. We invited him over, but it still rather surreal to have him take up so much of my personal space- especially when we haven’t even been properly introduced! In striving to make a connection with the little person inside of me, and to ease the overwhelming [...]

Also known as #15 on the list.
This quilt was made for my most super dearest friend, Anna, to give to her sister for the birth of her daughter, Maci Noel. I used remnants of lots of projects for the blocks on front and some uber cute crab fabric that I picked up at JoAnn’s [...]
