0 min read
Well, after months without a properly working phone...and sometimes internet.... *cue dramatic entrance music* Da-da-da DAAAAA!!! I finally got pics of the Kyubei Scarf that I made for my offspring's birthday. ^.^ I think he came out pretty good. Don't worry, I didn't let that cute face fool me into a contract. :P  Now, I'm working on more chibi plushie designs, so there should be more soon.  I hope to be able to post some drawings or prints soon as well. Hey, if anyone's reading this and you would like to send me a commission, go ahead and send me a note...or you can email me at:  noelaniimages@gmail.com. :D

I'm finally back! Whew! What? You say you didn't even notice I was gone? Oh well.  In case anyone was wondering where I went, we lost internet for...what felt like forever. A few weeks? lol I couldn't post. I couldn't search. I couldn't communicate...lol I didn't have any gas, so I couldn't go to the library to do it either.  Sad right? On the other hand, I did have some time to sew in the middle of the night, even if I got totally ill from a major vitamin D deficiency.  Hopefully, I will be able to post my little creations on here by the end of the week. Look forward to it! ^.^

I don't do these very often, but after making a bunch of projects for Christmas, I decided I liked the look of hand-stitching.  Although I used scraps of t-shirts to make my angel's robes...so they had machine-stitched hems...Like all my mini-plushies, I hand-stitched everything.  I decided to start hand-stitching the faces on the two scarves I made this season and I like the results much better. I still machine stitch the body and head, but all the details will be hand-stitched from now on! It looks better and I feel like I have much better control...also, I finally decided that it's okay to look home-made lol. I'm spending more and more tim
