I've been granted the huge honor to be the modern day, doll-maker version of the Renaissance painter Holbein to my very own Tudor Court.
The lovely ladies at La Corte de la Rosa, a Spanish historical group, are now Deridolls. =D

I was struck by inspiration and caramel-related cravings earlier, and have come up with these. Just in case anyone's curious, ( have a recipe )

First off, thanks to everyone who commented and offered advice on my Mario Kart question earlier this week. I think I have a good game plan for what I want to accomplish and you guys made it THAT much better with your advice!

So, um, yeah...On to the ( Shiny! Allons-y!! )

My friend Bobbie just graduated with his BA in Film Production and is well on his way to his goal of a PhD in Media Studies and I thought, being a fellow Whovian, something Doctor-related would make a fantastic gift!

I'm working on a two-part plush project, of Daryl Dixon and a zombie he shoots in the head with an arrow ('cause that's how Daryl rolls!). I've just finished part one; the zombie victim of the week.

If this is relevant to your interests, feel free to pop on by and check him out over here. ^__^



Also lovely mod, any chance of a The Walking Dead tag?

I'm making a cross stitch pattern that I hope to complete and frame for a friend as a kind-of geeky baby announcement. Being that I never played video games, I've needed help with several geek/game themed projects before and you guys have been my saviors...I've googled this, but haven't found EXACTLY what I wanted, and, well, frankly, after page 8, I kinda gave up and came on over to geekcrafts for help.

Can anyone tell me a general description of the "finish line" from Mario Kart? It doesn't really matter which Mario Kart - I'm kinda incorporating them all because the kid that I'm making it for will have a complete Mario themed bedroom/nursery that starts with the original Mario and goes on up to today's Mario.

And also, just as a note, with the research I've done so far, I've stumbled across things that were meant to be deterrants or snags in the racing game; like a banana peel, and what appears to be some kind of turtle shell. I've also seen the question block and the coins...Can you guys think of anything off the top of your head to add to that list of stuffs?

And, since I'm kinda on a roll here of begging information from you guys, does anyone know what the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes were in Mario Kart? I remember seeing my cousin play it and there was a trophy/cup thingy, and it looked like the top three players were on staggered award stands, kinda like at the olympics...But that's all I can remember; and any help would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Here's two bags I made.

Thanks for looking :)

Hi... I make bears.

( Really silly ones. Like this. )

Hi guys! 

I've been superbusy but kind of forgot about livejournal. A virus on my computer was one of those baddies. (deleting my internet bookmarks and stuff >.>)

But enjoy the pictures!:

For my husband, anyway. :) I did two digital drawings of his level 50 SW:TOR characters (a Human Jedi Knight and a Chiss Bounty Hunter). They're printed out and framed now.

I also crocheted him an amigurumi version of Thrawn, one of his favorite characters in the Star Wars universe. :D



He was quite appreciative!
