Animals wearing....

One trend I have noticed lately is animals of all types wearing fancy clothes and doing fancy things. Just what are they up to? Seems a little suspicious to me, but I also like it! I made a treasury on Etsy the other day about animals wearing top hats and then it just got out of control.







What animal treasuries can you come up with?

Geometry is not just for math class anymore...

Geometric patterns are all the rage right now. Here are a few finds from some awesome Etsy Sellers.

New Creatures

I have been working on cards with paper flowers. I got to thinking, how can this translate into my OTHER hobby of sock creatures?


So after some experiments I came up with a flower made out of socks and made into a headband or neck flower.

I haven't been able to name this new creature, so if you have a suggestion I would love to hear it. For now I just call her "TBD"

This one is a Zwid creature, made even prettier!


These are some variations on this project. Comment and let me know if you be interested in step by step instructions.

Still in love with Owls

I love owl images! Etsy has some amazing owl finds. Also through my searching I have found a very cool shop. It is the second image in the treasury, be sure to check it out.

If you click the image, it will take you to that item on Etsy.

Breed Profile: Cornish Rex (aka Princess Khaleah)

I often get asked by people:
"what type of cat is that?"
"what is wrong with that cat?" and
"IS that a cat?".
The answers are:
"She is a Cornish Rex cat"
"There is nothing wrong with her she is beautiful"
and
"Of course it's a cat, dummy".


Her name is Khaleah (pronounced KA-LEE-AH) and she is a Cornish Rex breed of cat.

They started as a natural occuring mutation in which the cat never developed the outer layer of hair. So they only have the soft curly undercoat. They are very playful and not very "cat-like". They are cold and like to be in blankets and in your lap all the time.

Once you start petting her, you can't stop because she is so so soft.
