I am terrible.

I have not posted on here for over a year. I am trying to commit to updated at least once a month from now on. As for an update for now, Zak and I are moving into our first real apartment with our cat Xandar. Our move in is this weekend. eek! I don't think I'm quite finished with packing....

We are also trying to get everything together for the wedding/cruise in November. We are now also getting married on the cruise while we are in Jamiaca. Pretty snazzy.

And, I got a new tattoo.

So, life has been pretty crazy but overall it's been really good. Stressful though. Ugh. Here's some pictures to apease you.


Zak and I being cute.


Squid shirts!!


And cute kittens. :)

More later.

Long time no post.

My life has been so busy lately. Me and my mom went on a cruise in April to the Bahamas and we had an absolute blast! Then the following the day after I got home I went to play Nero at PRO.

Then I spun some wool into my first real hank of handspun yarn that I can actually do something with.

























Then I made a hat for a contest my grandma was in.
It's a little octopus fishing on an island.







Then after that my mom had her partial masectomy. For those of you who don't know, she has IDC breast cancer. Here she is ,with a really insane looking me, in high spirits before surgery. She's doing really well and got her results back for the nodes and they are NEGATIVE FOR CANCER! Hooray!!
Then me and Zak discovered Royal Caribbean was having a special yesterday only and that we could possibly get up to $200 on board credit to spend on the ship and a couple other perks. So we reserved our honeymoon cruise! We'll be going the first week of November! <3!

That's kind of it I think. I'll try to get back into updating every couple days mode. I just got knocked out of it and got soooo busy.

Laters!

So, I'm getting into NERO season gear along with getting ready for my cruise in April! YAY!

I'm applying to sell at a craft show at the end of May. :D

Also gearing up for that.

I learned how to make Granny squares and am trying to not spend so much darn time playing WoW on the computer. Alas....weakness...

i go MIA every so often

So, Zak got the bright idea to renew our WOW (world of warcraft) subscription. So instead of crafting like I should be, I get home and play Wow until zak gets home. Bad Kat.

Oh well. My brain cogs have been turning so when i do pull myself away from the computer I'll be able to creat some cool stuff. Keep your eye balls peeled!

Sometimes when I come out of my craft room I have a lapse of memory and can't remember what I did for the past 3 hours. Then I realize... I've been in the craft room.

My Studio

I love my studio. It took me forever to get one and get it into a semi functional order. I am proud of how far it has come along and deecided I should show some pictures of the lovely room I spend so much time in.
Here is a picture of me working in the studio on my super nice table. Dig the apron? I made it. Please ignore the pile of mess in the back corner. That's the part that still needs work. Gosh... I sooo need to dye my hair.

Here's a shot of the lovely table with my current project laid out on it. You can see my cabinet in the corner that I put all my books on and all my glue and paint lives in the top part. There are some lovely dolls on the corner of the table to keep my company and my adjustable dressform with a sushi t-shirt on it. On top of the cabinet you can see about half a dozen skulls. Also the orange square on my wall is where I focus my anger when some fabric is not cooperating. Those fuzzy things on the cabinet are synthetic dreadlocks i made.


In the far left you can see a painting my brother did in middle school that is super awesome and I commendeered it because i love it so. Again the dressform and now also VOYAGER (my sewing machine) stashed in the corner. I love that black wire shelf. It's so great for fabric. Hanging on the shelf are some unfinished synthetic dreadlocks, some fabric that's airing out, two fox pelts, some screen printing, and a bag full of felted sweater bits. Boxes of fabric live on top of the wire thing and OH BABY! Check out that overflowing yarn stash! Beads and stuff live there too but the yarn takes up most of the space.


And here is the resident studio dwelling beast. This is Xandar. I love him so much and he keeps me company when I'm working in there.
That's it. I hope you enjoyed it.
