March Sixth

Well, we made lots of food and had a lovely time. I also started two new dresses. Music was played over the weekend. I made Moo cards with pictures of things I have made on them, even though I have no use for them really. I invented an idea for a business. We had yummy snacks at Rudy's Can't Fail. We got a brand new toilet seat and have a date with Home Depot to look at refinishing our tub. We were clearly too busy to post!

A fancy brunch!

Homemade cilantro pesto. Delicious!

Yes, it was a lot of food. The poached egg was perfect.

We also made a pot of black beans and roasted butternut squash. Some extra squash is ready for soup on Monday while I finish the dresses. See!!?? Stuff is happening and we shall try to record it. Even if this is not a formal month like February, we will make things around here.

Day 2.3

I know, I know. I skipped two whole days with no thought of what to do. I watched movies (The Fingersmith and The Social Network) and ate out at Mangia Mangia. But I *also* wrote a song off the top of my head while playing with my cat, Zazu. I was working it out and changing it while I sang it and it needs some work, but I really have nothing else to show for my evening except for it so I wanted to post it. Well, I kind of have done it, though an unnecessary tag exists at the beginning. Please ignore said tag and simply be amused by the song about the cat and her cat dancer fetish. And ignore the rephrasing and everything (or think of it as the folk process in action and be amazed or inspired or something).

Also, I realize I owe something for 2.1 and 2.2 though I don't know if the true love does (he has no clear plan). Don't feel you have to download....

There is some nice unexpected rhyming I think. I see potential. Wanna jam?

Day Twenty-Eight

So here we find ourselves finished with a (short) month of art/making stuff/whatever. Phew. That took some effort. And it isn't even all the cool stuff we did this month. I am going to be mulling over what comes next, and will let the universe know what our plan is. In the meantime, here is the work of our final day. We also went Balkan dancing so it was kind of a late night of finishing up.

This is a dish cloth I made from a pattern I found on Ravelry. We were knitted a dish cloth recently and I really like using it, so I though this would be fun and useful. It's pretty fast though it has a number of ends to sew in (I hid them for the picture.... don't tell).

The true love added text to a border he did earlier in the month.

 Well, there you have it. Thanks for keeping us motivated and (somewhat) honest!

Day Twenty-Seven

Yet more lines of letters.  They say that one can actually string them together in predetermined combinations to form words.  We shall see, we shall see...

Yesterday's fimo hearts are today's book cover. This is a card for recently married friends.

It looks ever so much smarter against a black background, doncha know.

Day Twenty-Six

Well, we are coming to a close on our hearts, although Heart-henge still has failed to become a reality. There are only two postings left. Sigh. We will continue in March with something, though it may be much less visual or tangible. Tune in for more info. In the meantime you can see the winding down occur...

So sleepy but very diligent is he.

Step one of a two step process. Thanks to the polymer clay goddess for the materials. Some of these will be further worked into something else for the next day. My hands are still a little pink...

Day Twenty-Five

I made felt around a rock! Here is the tutorial I used. It was easy peasy.

It had a heart trapped in the felt.

He only got so far after a long day. He is most disciplined.

Day Twenty-Four

True love managed to do something cool even at a very late and tired hour.

I nearly cheesed out to do two the next day but then was inspired to do some awesome crushagami in bed.
