attack of the robots...


Our good friend and awesome animator Dean, 'mocked' (he's term not mine...) up this little robot using one of my photos. I think its great. We were looking at work using a similar idea and I'm really happy he could look at my pics and see an idea like this. Although he's a busy man, I can't wait to see more of these and have given him full permission to use any of my images. See more of Deans work on his blog.

My first Refashion..

I was asked to update, and seeings as I'll be away for a week, I'm here. Thought I show off my first re-fashioned item... a hat that I got for 25c and added a couple of little skulls to it.

Not the biggest sewing achievement, but I have been working a lot more than usual. So thats my excuse. Below is a couple of items that I completed before starting my pledge. Some of you would have seen the skull motif, here it is on the hoodie. Also, my 2nd pair of 'lounge' pants.



Thought I would also add "Jon (my hubby) as a Southpark character" for those of you who know him.Try it yourself, its a lot of fun.

I need your help

Hi to anyone reading.
I need your help...
I need some ideas for my Project 365 (a photo everyday). I need some suggestions for a mini-challenge theme. It will last for a week, well Monday to Friday, so it'll be 5 images. Any ideas will be appreciated.

Dali Lama touring..

I'm very excited, I'll be going to one of the free talks by the Dali Lama, when he's in Australia next month. I'll of course be blogging it afterwards but couldn't resist adding this pic which is featured on the official website.


Sunday Fun

Here's some photos taken on the weekend. I don't think there will be many more days like this, out in the sun on the grass. There's a few more pics on LIME









Bain decided he might like to have a go taking photos, I think he has potential...perhaps a 3rd generation photographer in the making...

Count down...

As another day ends I will begin the 10 day count down til I start Wardrobe Refashion. I cannot but any new clothes for two months. Needless to say I bought something new today, although this is a rare occasion anyway, but I have also made my first pair of 'lounge' pants. Yes, I have sewn! As I'm not really a trackie pants person, when I saw a few of these on the Refashion website, I thought they were great. Haven't found any good fabric to re-cycle so I had to buy some, although the black and white trim is fabric from the op-shop/thrift shop. I didn't use a pattern either, so I must have some sewing knowledge.

And I love them.. can't wait to make more.


Here's a pic of my cat who can always suss out a warm spot to sleep.
