Greetings again, my fellow bloggers and friends. I will admit, it is hard to not to enjoy oneself when immersed in the world of blogging, even for me. Since the whole idea is still relatively new to me, I find it simultaneously exciting and mystifying. I love possessing the knowledge that there are other people reading my posts and witnessing my actions through my words. I hope that by the end of this project, I will be able to produce a distinguishable result that can help someone, somewhere, in some way.
Today I finally met with my mentor, Audra, to work on my project. I was admittedly a little further behind than I had previously meant to be, but I also fully intend to return with flashing colors. Possibly literally. We will see, I suppose. Anyway, we were able to pin down a few designs that we would like to use, as well as gauge what materials we need that we have and do not have, With this, I will be able to continue to work more independently so as to maximize efficiency. Because let's be honest, neither of us live in such leisure as to be able to spend extended periods of time together to work on a project for which I cannot accomplish the most basic of tasks.
Now then, it has been decided that those ambiguously addressed "objects" I will be making will, for the most part, take the form of bunnies. Audra found an adorable design on My So Called Crafty Life that will be very easy for us to utilize. She was also able to provide me with a sufficient amount of fabric to get started, as well as some fluff to stuff in the bunnies! The only things I need now are some buttons for eyes, and some pom-poms for the tails. I also need to fish a sewing machine out of a closet. Besides that, I have thread and the like.
I am so excited to get started on the brunt of my project, especially now that I have a serious goal and plan in mind. I feel the need to inform everyone that from this day forward, there will likely never be a blog post in which I do not mention in passing my eternal gratitude towards my mentor and her putting up with me.
I fully plan on posting pictures of my first few attempts, and I really appreciate all the positive feedback I have been getting from the very beginning of my endeavor. Thank you all for sticking with me this far! See you in the next blog post!
That's awesome Elayne! Though I am curious as to why you'd need a sewing machine for a multidimensional object. I guess I'll find out!
