May i be struck for being lazy


So here are the treasures i nabbed from the Ontario Open Air swapmeet i went to with Panda on Oct. 10th, i am ashamed to say, yes, it's been weeks!


I found this awesome wool red plaid, about 2 1/2 yards for only $2!





Are you obsessed with wooden models? I am. Even though i haven't built any yet (i'm saving them for a rainy day!) i can't help but collect. I have two bug models and then i found this one! Yes! It's a revolver, made out of wood! I have no idea if it will actually look like the picture above, but when i make it i'll show the world. And yes, i'm a nerd, i know.




So here's what we really drove all the way to Ontario for: cotton jersey material. Panda is obsessed and i'm afraid to say that after this trip, i too am now addicted. She's gotten me into making my own underware! I picked up black, tiedyed blue, soft green and some pinky off white wide lace trim. For a photo of the first pair i made, see my other project blog mammalchupie.blogspot.com


Alright. I have to get things done this morning, but there will be another update tonight. Both blog and shop update! Whoo hoo i'm getting it done. Stay tuned for the awesome fabric i picked up at the san berdo swap this last sunday!
Cheers! & Happy Treasure Hunting!
