Christmas came and went , and i must have been a naughty girl this year as I got covid for Christmas. I did manage to get these two gnomes made and given before i got covid. And the ford one was made for a person who did not like gnomes (as many were appearing in the house) BUT now likes them LOL

34 year old jacket is now wearable again
Many years ago I made a black jacket (I was way smaller the), But i could never bring myself to throw it out. Last month i got the jacket out of the cupboard and unpicked lots of the seams and collected all my favorite black fabric i had and remade my jacket. Also added a 3D printed robot (that i had printed the netting fabric into the print)

New toy and out of that new toy comes my ROBOT
No
guesses as to what our houses new toy is . Yes we now have a ender 3
3dprinter and here is our first attempts . Firstly the cat printed just
the bottom section before failing. Then after a little play we got it to
print a full cat. Ok then a fan cover after we adjusted the temperature
and did up a screw or two .
What was I always going to print next?
My own robot design but first attemped ended up having to be stopped as i
did not put supports in it (lucky i seen that early on!) and will use
that as a flat robots put together with misprints. So I then printed my
robot with the supports and I am loving it for a first try.

Sea turtle Quilt
story about the turtle quilt when i was making it I hated it there was too much plain blue and it was too flat so i cut the back of the turtle off and stuffed it , then it was just so so . Then i painted the sea grass and bubbles and it was getting better. Then i added the 9 small turtles and i had turned a quilt that was going to be thrown out the window to a quilt i love
