Searching for Treasures

My sister and her husband are expanding their little family through Adoption!

We are so very excited and they are getting everything ready but they need some help to make this possible. They are holding an Auction to help raise money. They have some great pieces for you to bid on, including a few pieces I donated to this awesome cause, a Teddy Bear handmade Sculpture and some matted Dragon Doodle Prints of mine. 

My husband has also donated signed copies of his 1^st and 2^nd Book in his Winston and Baum Steampunk Adventure book series, along with Prints of the cover art. But THAT’S NOT ALL…My sister is amazingly talented with a sewing machine and has made some incredible quilts for you to bid on, any of these will make super gifts for the Holiday :)

Don’t feel like bidding and just want to get a piece now? Well you are in luck, my sister has an Etsy Store where she sells her wonderful purses and handmade bracelets. 
Don’t want to buy anything but still would like to help, you can make a donation through the site Or if you can't donate, Share their page. Spreading the word helps just as much.

I cannot wait to meet the little angel that is able to Bless this sweet couple with your support, Thank you so much for helping a dream come true for this family :)

Thanks for reading!

YOU PIN-HEAD!!!

Little Hedgehog Steampunk Myxie Pal, now available on my Etsy Store. https://www.etsy.com/listing/125389878/spike-hedgehog-steampunk-myxie-pal  

It was difficult to decide on what material I wanted to use for the Hedgehog’s quills but once I found my box of jewelry pins, decision was made.  True, he now looks like a pin cushion but I imagine Steampunk Hedgehogs could also be used for that. LOL

Thanks for reading.

Stop complaining and get back to work!

Finished sewing She Death’s cloak last night. I used a dark brown for the fabric instead of traditional black, I thought it matched better with the gold on her clothes and Scythe. She actually came out looking like she is part of a Greek Mythology but she still looks really neat. Plus my husband said the Reaper was quite prevalent in most Greek Myths so I’m just going to say I purposely made her like that ;P
Her cloak was a bit of a tedious task because my little sewing machine wasn’t wanting to cooperate so I had to do it all by hand. The cloak is only about a 12x12 piece of fabric but it was still a good 3 hours of stitching…ugh not fun on my fingers.
Her Scythe was no picnic either. Since it is thin it was difficult to sculpt on one side without smooshing the other, so I was forced to continuously flip it back and forth so one side didn’t end up flat…still kind of happened that way though…doesn’t look bad so I’m okay with it. :)

Anyway, She Death should be completely finished tonight so I will hopefully have photos for you Monday, until then, I’ve posted a Photo of her Scythe for you to check out.
Thanks for reading!
