My Spring Break

So.. I decided to join this whole blog thing. I used to have a xanga but used it more like a diary, this shall be much better. This is going to be used mostly just for my creative endeavors (I'm really liking this spell check.) Anyways... I had some time on my hands over spring break and had just heard about etsy through someone at my boyfriend's church who makes really cool purses. I had just taught myself how to crochet and was loving it. It was a very good break from drawing all the time which is what you have to do before you apply to art schools. I made about a bag a day in the hopes of making some dough, but I dont know if they will actually sell which is a bummer..

Here's a brown one with a yellow plastic button and yellow lining

This one I am very proud of.. took me long than the rest of them. It's a shame I ran out of blue yarn though

This one is intended to be a little girls purse, and the first thing real purse (not tote) I've sewn successfully

Next is something I made for myself because I got a new slider cell phone that i thought needed protection because of the screen being exposed. I decided to paint on it since I have probably been neglecting practicing painting..

Okay.. So i'm not a very good seamstress, but I'm trying! I messed up on my first try of the cell phone thing so I turned it into a coin purse which I need anyways. I put my favorite quote on the back
